I lived here ... Some of the people tried to help me, but they're really cruel to people who run- I ran because they were so hard on me and the person I met there, now my fiancé. They were harder on me after I ran, when I came back. I was isolated for a week and spent the first 48 hours without food. Others get punished for little to no reason- I know a person who dyed their hair, but it didn't come out the colour they were expecting. The staff punished them because the colour came out pink, not red. Some of the staff try to help, though- But the good ones leave because the place is hellish. But, I met my fiancé there! Though, dating isn't allowed, I couldn't help who I fell for. Now the "no dating" rule is even more strict- It's to the point of abusive. People get in trouble if someone else touches them without consent- it's gotten terrible. Never live there, that's my advice. There's a reason why a bunch of people run from that hellcity.

I gave it a four because I never got a chance to view the whole facility or meet direct care staff due to covd. The therapist I got to meet was professional, caring, and demonstrated knowledge and understanding of children

I don't know- I don't think so, though. When I lived there, nobody did that, and I would think the staff are more likely to eat them then the kids.

The Settlement Home is a private, licensed nonprofit that cares for children who come from abusive and neglectful backgrounds. Our mission is to promote healing and growth in children, young adults and families by providing a continuum of care, support and resources. We serve individuals who have experienced severe emotional trauma, abuse and neglect. Through a variety of services and programs, we are able to meet the specific needs of each individual we serve. Our residential programs provide a therapeutic, structured environment for adolescent girls. We also have a Transitional Living Program that provides a supportive apartment living experience for young women age 18-21 years old. These programs provide residents with the tools, resources and life skills they need to live healthy, productive lives. We have a Foster and Adoption program that trains and verifies families in the Austin community to provide a safe, therapeutic family setting for boys and girls of all ages.

We schedule pickups throughout the week to accommodate the schedules of both our donors and volunteers. Typically, we can have someone pick up within a week of a request, sometimes sooner!
