Sue Scheff and P.U.R.E.: Testimonials
Sue,
Your organization, as well as, yourself should be commended for the job you do. In today's fast paced world we tend to take certain services for granted until one is needed. You listened when no one else could help and provided the tools to seek out a program to give my child hope for the future. Thank you ever so much.
It is important that we stand behind our children and do everything possible to help them. Abraham Lincoln said it best, "A child is a person who is going to carry on what you have started. He is going to sit where you are sitting, and when you are gone; attend to those things, which you think are important. You may adopt all the policies you please, but how they are carried out depends on him. He will assume control of your cities, states, and nations. He is going to move in and take over your churches, schools, universities, and corporations ...... the fate of humanity is in his hands."
Thank you so very much,
J. David H., TN
"Dear PURE,
Thank you so much for your timely response and the information that you included. We are in the process of reviewing the two schools that you suggested. We may have had an easing of the situation at home tonight. Our son has finally realized that we are indeed serious about an intervention program or alternative school if necessary. He was quite shook up about it. We will see if this shift in attitude is real or just a temporary fear of his. That is a relief in itself to us just to know that help is always just a phone call away and that her services can be utilized at any time. Again we thank you sincerely for your help."
Sincerely,
Leonard& Debbie O., TX
"Sue,
You are doing a great job, and your doing with style and ethics. My friend told me that her brother paid the "Educational Consultant" $6500.00 to find that school they pay $6,000. Per month. He probably also got his referral fee from the school.
I have no issue with people making money. You are doing a great job and should get paid for what you do. You didn't charge me one cent for my piece of mind; but the school also benefits from your efforts and they should pay. I tell people about your organization all the time."
With Gratitude,
Jacque S., Esquire, TX
"Dear PURE,
You certainly were helpful. I still have my daughter at home & we are trying to work things out. She is basically on house arrest. I am grateful that I bumped into your organization or I might have made the same sort of mistake that the founder did when I found the less expensive option. Before I spoke to you specifically about programs, I had e-mailed the contact person from there & was using a tid-bit of info that I had gotten from you. I simply asked if they had counseling on site at each of their locations & if it was included in the price he had given me since there shouldn't be one single teen in crisis that doesn't receive counseling. He didn't respond via e-mail but left me a VM. I felt he was evading a simple question. I didn't bother calling him back. You were so honest and upfront with me."
Thanks again. God Bless You!

"Charlotte,
Thanks for the follow up and your concern about (name withheld) On Sue's recommendation, I contacted the (Name Withheld), and dropped (name withheld) off there yesterday. It feels like a very sudden decision for me, but I felt that they appreciated our situation, and I could bear to see him wasting himself here any further with the trouble he's been getting into. I didn't want him to miss any more school, and he has already completely muffed this first semester. He seems happy with the situation, wants the structure and has been in a boarding school situation before, so there wasn't any separation anxiety! "

"Dear Pure;
I want to thank you both for the moral support (Sue) and for the physical support (Greg) by visiting him when it was crucial back in November. Also for both of your words of wisdom and basically for being there for me in more ways than you can possibly imagine."
Gloria B., CT
"Sue,
Well it's Tuesday morning and (name withheld) is safely in (name withheld) at (name withheld). I can't thank you enough for all you have done. I sincerely think that you are a saint. To be going through so much yourself and to help others as you have (name withheld), (name withheld) and I is amazing. You should keep patting yourself on the back for your incredible gift. I don't think that I would have known what to do if we hadn't continued to communicate all these months."

Sue Scheff - P.U.R.E. Satisfaction!
Whatever the reason a parent, relative, therapist or other professionals call us, we have always been supportive and tried our best to give them resources.
Over the years we have had less than a handful of complaints - which is a very good ratio in consideration that we are working with usually desperate situations and families in crisis. We have received and assisted literally over 10,000 families and are very proud to say we have many letters of gratitude. It is also an honor to be a long standing Member of the Better Business Bureau.
I have been interviewed by many reporters and appeared on TV and Radio - in today's society of teens and the peer pressure they face, parents are reaching out for help. It is a growing epidemic of seeking outside programs and schools, with this, a parent needs to be educated on how to find the best school for their individual child.
With all the attention I am getting, it can be overwhelming. I never dreamed my little organization would become so popular. Like with all success stories, there are always critics. Whether it is jealously that drives them or a simple dislike for me, I respect their opinions - however until you walk my shoes, you will never understand what I have been through.
My book - "Wit's End!" which will be released in 2008 will not only chronicle my story and other real life family situations, it will offer resources, relief and most of all - hope!
