New Start Transports - Cynthia Strobell, RN, Board Member
'As a mother the choice to send my son that was out of control and making poor choices to a youth wilderness program was one of the toughest decisions I have had to make in my life. After the arrangements were made for the program I decided that my older son and I could transport him there by ourselves. I was wrong in my thinking. The transport consisted of arguments, physical fights between my sons, and even threats from my son to jump out of the car while we were driving. It was a very difficult and emotionally draining trip. I realize now that having a professional transport service with quality staff can be very beneficial for both the parents and the youth. I am glad now to have the opportunity to work with other parents in making their child's transport a better experience than mine.'
My name is Cindy Strobell. I have eight children (three natural and five step-children). I am a registered nurse. I have worked in the medical field for eleven years. I have also worked in the past in the local school district as a tutor for youth that were struggling academically. Raising kids is extremely difficult and extremely rewarding. If you are dealing with a child that is out of control and making choices that may be placing them in danger you may have decided that they would benefit from being in a youth program. You may be experiencing many conflicting feelings. You may feel guilty that you cannot handle a child on your own and that you are choosing to send them away; you may feel despair and be wondering if there is any hope for your troubled child. There is hope. There is a chance for a new start in their life. That new start can begin with your choice of New Start Transports to transport your child to their program. We can assure you that we can provide professional, caring and trained staff to transport your child. We can be the first start in your child's new perspective in life. We offer personal experience from both sides as a parent and youth being sent to programs and as experienced trained workers with youth in various professional settings. If you would like to ask me any questions please feel free to e-mail me.
