Since we were once in that position, we want you to take comfort in the fact that you are not alone and give you the opportunity to learn from our experiences and more importantly, gain from our knowledge.
We educate parents about therapeutic boarding schools, residential treatment centers, wilderness programs and what will be right for your difficult teenager.

Donna Ross
Donna Ross joined Parents Universal Resource Experts in the spring of 2019. After a long career as a a successful entrepreneur, and raising two children, she herself used the services of P.U.RE. years ago and realized how important it is to have someone there for you when you are most vulnerable. “Being able to have someone understand what I was going through with my out-of-control teenager helped me realize I wasn’t alone,” Donna shared with us years ago. “P.U.R.E. was there for us when we needed them, answering the tough questions and giving us sound advice.”
Many organizations are founded by people that have had negative experiences in the teen help industry, but with Donna, she was fortunate to have worked with P.U.R.E. years ago, and with their help, located a safe and quality school for her teenager. She is familiar with how a good program can work with families – firsthand. She can help educate you and share her own experiences with you. Donna is busy learning and visiting more schools and programs in our country to keep you better informed. She is dedicated to helping others, like yourself, educating you when you are facing this major decision of choosing residential therapy.
