Mitt Romney seems to be the voice of freedom and hope and not for other demographics. This mainly have to do with young people enrolled in for-profit education programs including programs for so-called troubled teens. Bain Capital has acquired both CRC Health and Aspen Education Group which Bain later merged the two together.
This article tells more about the notoriously abusive facilities and people who have died in these places. Because of Aspen Education Group being a part of Bain Capital, it has now been able to open more abusive facilities while making more money than ever. Hopefully those facilities won't last long as the whole industry was based off of the Synanon module of therapy which should be banned nationwide.

Now taking requests for targeted facilities
People are not really sure exactly how many abusive treatment facilities there are. So if anyone knows about some places that are not on the "Targeted Facilities" list at the bottom of the page, put them in the comment section of this update. You can however cite some proof on weather or not their abuse is top notch or from your own experience if your a survivor.
This list really counts to let the general public know about these abusive for-profits. The bigger the list, the better!

Utah Wildfires Effects on Residential Programs
Many of you know about the wildfires burning down entire neighborhoods in Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah. Your probably wondering what this has to do with residential programs. Well one of the affected states ,Utah, has the largest collection of fraudulent residential treatment programs for teens and in some cases young adults.
In turn, crews continue to battle wildfire near Hurricane where Diamond Ranch Academy is located. DRA has been severely abusive for several years and don't even be fooled by it's flashy website. This is deceptive marketing at it's worst. Let's hope that the advocates and other DRA survivors have high hopes that the wildfires reach the facility and the owner's estate. We can think of it as a "spiritual arson" that destroys the bad guys so that they can't do anymore evil to these innocent teens and their parents. The same goes for other abusive programs in Utah that have failed to shutdown or be inspected by the state government.
We can feel sorry for the other people who've lost their homes in the flames as they mourn over the foundation, but not in the case of DRA. We cannot feel sorry for the owners of these programs and their facilities because they're getting what they deserved!

Warning Signs of Illegal Marketing of Abusive Programs
When searching for a program or a boarding school that you want to fit the needs of your child, one of the first things you come up with on your search engine is marketing pages for for-profit therapeutic boarding schools and/or wilderness programs and boot camps. The reason for this is that they are owned by major corporations who make big money and use it to open up new facilities and are hungry for some more. Most of them will be up in the face of desperate families and will lie to them about the program structure, length of stay, academics, accreditation, and even encourage the parents to lie to the child or the other parent. Some will even encourage the use of a so-called escort service to come and kidnap their child by surprise in the middle of the night.

Prepare to meet your Doom JRC!
As a horrific video recording from 2002 of a student being tortured after acting out was released. As many of you know, The Judge Rotenberg Center operates just like any other program for troubled teens with the exception of using electric shocks and the wider range of students they serve. People are now jumping on the "Close the JRC" bandwagon. A campaign from the Community Alliance for the Ethical Treatment of Youth (CAFETY) is starting a movement called "Occupy the JRC".
Here is a message from Anonymous about the shock torture at the school.
- There is a news article along with a graphic video of that same student strapped to a restraint board and screaming for help as he's being shocked. http://www.myfoxboston.com/dpp/news/undercover/video-of-teen-restrained-shocked-for-hours-to-be-played-in-court-20120410
