“My kid is going to do what?” with Diane McKinney




Beyond Risk and Back show

Summary: Aaron Huey, founder of Firemountain Residential Treatment Center, and Diane McKinney discuss experiential therapy and a unique twist on a successful model! Diane is the founder and Executive Director of the not-for-profit organization, ABLE for Youth, and the ABLE to Sail program, which is now in its 6thyear, here in Longmont at Union Reservoir. She has been engaged in being an inspiration to Longmont Youth since 2011, when she received the Make Time for Kids Award from Mayor Coombs, for her presentation, “Being Good Enough,” which was filmed and televised locally. She is also a Licensed Spiritual Counselor with the Centers for Spiritual Living. Her personal mission is to help struggling youth identify and change the limiting beliefs of “not-enoughness,” which drive them to make life-limiting and life ending high risk choices such as the use of alcohol, drugs, cutting, and ultimately suicide, inspiring them, instead to be and express their talents, gifts, and abilities in a way that only they can!
