Acronym
The acronym Drug Addicts Yielding TO Persuasion does not appear on their web site. It appears to be a fabrication. If you are the author please provide a source citation. I ♥ ♪♫ (talk) 04:38, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Abuse?
From what I have read about Joe Ricci and Elan School, Daytop sounds very similar in terms of manipulating and brainwashing people - as well as kidnapping students who ran away from Elan and returning them. This article makes it sound like there is nothing remotely controversial about Daytop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.96.236 (talk) 19:56, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
