When members progress to Phase 1 from orientation (typically 7 days), they are eligible to have their phones, laptops and other electronics. In the orientation phase, we want members to be focused on acclimating to the new environment and getting to know staff and other members. The easiest way to do this is to minimize the distractions as much as possible. Many of our members have struggled with electronic overuse and addiction.  If warranted, we’ll ask members or parents to monitor or restrict usage temporarily if other responsibilities and goals are being neglected.
