I used to Volunteer there.
My chapter of Alpha Phi Omega at Carnegie Mellon had two brothers go over there once a week to play board games and other things with the pre-teens that where in Western Psychiatric. We had to take three hours of training before we were allowed in the rotation for the chapter...
Western Psych was a regional psychiatric center and I think they were one of the few in that area (W PA, WV, Eastern Ohio) that took kids under 13. One kid who I played a board game with,he said he had set a dozen fires before he turned 10. The doors to all of the rooms for the kids opened into the rooms, but there was a door within the door that opened out, so the kids couldn't block the door.
