This is for hope that those abusive facilities will get attention about their disturbing nature. These are the worst of the worst mental health programs in the nation. They often treat and discipline in the most unorthodox ways. Worst yet, these patients are children and teenagers.
This treatment is NOT allowed on the most dangerous criminals under terms of Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Some of the punishment used are mental torture, meal deprivation, denied medical care, denied proper shelter. In severe cases, some of these teens die as a result. And yet these places remain open as more and more kids are being sent to these programs. Even though some are violent and have faced charges, they deserve better than this.
These programs may sound like a promising place on their websites. But in reality, not even close. Looks can be deceiving.
