Sorry, no I don't know about that agency. Would it be possible to go there with a friend to drive you and to simply gauge your first impressions?
I find that there is no substitute for an honest impression of my own.

I have been there and I found it to be a very well rounded program. The staff were great and the unit was small, so I felt safe and well cared for.

If you go there I hope they can really help you. You deserve good help.

I am also looking for information on The Center @ PIW for trauma treatment.

They have a trauma unit at PIW which has a waiting list you should get on. The regular unit you should refuse. Very Triggering (when I was there they had some patent getting in peoples faces, and he ended up assaulting another patient who was 5 feet from me. The chaos was triggering me big time, and when the assault happened I started self harming and had S/I and a plan that I could get away with in that environment.
