All KCDC TEAM undergo a full criminal background check, and personal references are required and carefully checked. Our counselors and specialists are managed and coached by members of our Leadership Team. All of our TEAM go through an extensive training program which enhances their overall skill level regardless of their experience level.
Many of our TEAM return year after year. This continuity of the TEAM creates an environment that is consistent and familiar, and enhances the family atmosphere that is prevalent at KCDC.
