Sample Letter 1
Dear Parent,
Our son Mike is a good friend of your son. I wanted to share some positive things that have happened for Mike and our family. As you may be aware, my husband Sam and I have struggled with Mike for quite some time. He is a good kid but he was making some bad choices. These choices began to have more and more impact on our home. Typical or normal teenage rebellion was soon replaced by sheer defiance and total unwillingness to follow any of our home rules or standards. Our home life became a nightmare and the pain of watching our son self-destruct with no change in sight became overwhelming to us. We knew we needed to do something for Mike. That's when we became aware of some good interventions that has for first time in a long time given us some real hope. Mike is making good progress and Sam and I have our sanity back.
We wanted to share this with everyone in hopes that everyone will encourage Mike in this process. We also wanted to let any parents who are facing similar difficulties know that there are effective solutions available and we are happy to share what we found with anyone who has an need or interest. Again, we wanted to let you know we are seeing big changes in Mike and appreciate everyone's support of him and us in this process.
Please feel free to call or email us if our experience can ever be of assistance to you or your family.
Sincerely
Sam and Jill Smith

Dear Parent,
As I'm sure you know, Jill and I have been struggling with our child ______ for quite some time. He used to be a great kid with a good heart. Slowly we were beginning to recognize changes in his behavior and life that quickly became very concerning to us. We noticed that his academics were slipping and he had become very disrespectful towards us and defiant towards the structure and rules we had set for our home. We also started noticing changes in his character such as; dishonesty, low self-esteem, no personal accountability, and even steeling. At times we felt he may have been involved in drugs and alcohol and this is when it became very alarming to us that we had to act now in order to save our child.
We, unlike many parents, were fortunate enough to find help for our child before it was too late. We reached a point where we thought we had done everything we could to help him and still we saw no changes or positive results in his life. We were frustrated and felt that we had hit rock bottom. That is when we found options available to us that we had never known existed before. What a relief it has been to our family and to our son.
For this reason, we wanted to send this letter out to those who we felt may be looking for the same answers we were looking for but just don't know where to find them. If there are any questions we may be able to answer for you or help get you in touch with the people that were able to help our family, please don't hesitate to call us.

Dear _________,
We hope this letter finds you and your family well. We are so excited about what is going on with our daughter Mary that we felt we needed to share the information with anyone who could possibly use it, just as someone did for us.
As you probably know, we were having a lot of problems with our daughter's behavior the past few months. We saw constant manipulation and deceiving behavior that has gotten her into some very disturbing trouble. We felt that she was using some type of controlled substance, maybe multiple ones. She would tell us she was going to stay at a friend's house when later we found out she was at parties and hanging around people that were much older than she. She was headed down a very destructive path fast. This is when we realized there had to be something else that could help her other than what we had already tried.
Fortunately, we did find something and it is working so well that she now has a great deal of self respect and respect for us as well. We are seeing her life change right before our eyes and what a relief it has been for us as her parents. We did it because we love her and wanted her to be a happy, healthy child. We saw this option as the only thing that could save her life and we were right. She now has a chance to make all her goals and dreams come true and it is great to be able to go to sleep at night knowing that she is safe, healthy and happy.
We feel we it our duty to spread the word to all those who may be in the same situation or know of someone with a troubled teen. If there is anything we can do to make a difference in the lives of others, like it has in ours, we are more than willing to share the information with you. Please feel free to call us if you would like to receive more information about the resources we have found. Like we said, it has made all the difference for Mary.
Sincerely,
Henry & Jessica Jones

Sample Letter 4
Dear _________,
Your daughter Sally has been friends of our daughter for a very long time. We wanted to share with you some things that we were experiencing with her and how we have been able to find help for both her and our family.
For the past few months, Jenny has been changing, becoming more easily aggravated and disrespectful towards us, her siblings, teachers and just anyone who isn't part of her group of friends that she hangs out with. We have also noticed that her attitude and behavior at home had also been effecting her education. We are constantly getting phone calls from the school saying she was not in class and we noticed she had been skipping school a lot. It has been very hard to watch our vibrant, beautiful daughter become so distant and uncaring about her very own family and even worse, herself.
We feel we have been very lucky, however, because someone had the courage to tell us that help was out there, we just needed to know where to look. Jenny is doing very well now. She is in a place where she has a structured schedule and she works on personal development courses daily. Because of this, her grades are improving immensely. She finally has goals set for the future and is willing to work hard to achieve them. We are very grateful that someone cared enough to speak up and let us know where to find help. Because of them, we now have our daughter back. We've been able to build a relationship with her that has been more honest and heartfelt than anything we have had previously with her.
If you are experiencing some of these same problems with your child, or just feel like you would like an assessment done to see how your child rates, please don't hesitate to call us. We would love to pass on the information we found to others that are in need.
Sincerely,
Joe and Marge Smith
