AARC

Alberta Adolescent Recovery Centre A controversial, behavior modifying, "rehabilitation program" for youth located in Calgary, Alberta.

AARC is pseudo-residential, using homes of oldcomer clients to house newer clients, also known as newcomers.

AARC utilizes a level system similar to Straight Inc. and group Synanon type sessions called rap to progress clients and families through to graduation.

AARC hires it's own graduates and family members to work as addiction specialists, junior peer counselors, peer counselors, sibling counselors, clinical staff and other positions with only their experience at AARC for credentials.

CBC's documentary Program The Fifth Estate won awards in 2009 for their expose on the AARC program, titled "Powerless".

I would be dead insane or in jail, AARC saved my life, I work there as a counselor to give back.

Aarchi

She is competitive..learns fast good at grasping things..she knows her capabilities but still sometimes underestimates herself..she becomes what she is surrounded with..good people are her necessity...have lot of dreams but a bit overrelaxed on these matter..born with opposition thinking...one side is hopeless romantic..but never gets attached to anyone which is her best part..can leave them without regrets..proud of herself..she has two sides..wants everything yet nothing..very greedy but not materialistic
In short she is fucking confused soul.

What an Aarchi- what a confused soul

Aarchisha

Bold, open-minded and brave. Always puts in the hard work but often laments about it. Very result oriented and progress keeps the fire burning. Usually has a large appetite with infinite room for dessert.

Aarchisha is the kind of person you'd look at and say, damn, can she eat.

Aarchee

It means happiness. The one who spreads happiness but not in the ways you think. She thinks deeply and is highly sensitive but will never show. Aarchee defines epitome of grace. It defines all what you want to be.

Not everyone can be Aarchee. It takes a lot to become even a bit like Aarchee
