San Marcos Treatment Center

Hi my name is William Cartagena when I lived here for a few years I loved here I was brought in by DHS in Philadelphia to San Marcos treatment center
I was able to get my first jobs there working like a fast food ordering we brought The food too The staff who ordered food My therapist I for get his name BUT he passed away in a motorcycle accident right before I was discharged I had My first love there learn to swim there was a staff member who worked at a local radio that gave shout out to us we made his playlist we jammed away those nights if I could go back 20 something year's I would do it again it's The only place till This day I felt safe life has not been good to me but I came across a friend post who child there I told him he gonna love it he will have inner peace I miss being there and I'm going on 40 and I wanna go back I would sell everything and board a plane and come back if they would allow it but thank you for all my best memories

i was here like 3 years ago and i really wish i would of worked the program i miss it it helped me a lot . but i was wondering to you guys still have a contract with cps?

From the time of admission to the time of discharge, overall, we had a good experience. I never had issues with communication with staff. My son's experience was good overall, what he struggled with most was with other kids in treatment. We felt like the staff handled those issues well and in a timely manner. I do have to share that my son was there during the horrible ice storm in February (2021) and they were so accommodating and helpful during that time. Despite the lack of electricity, food shortages, water shortages, and all of that, we all felt like Ethan was cared for well given the circumstances.

I was there in 2017 I was there for ten months and it’s a pretty good place it had its moments but other than that I would say it was a pretty good place
