Obligatory elan.school. Shit is fucked up and it’s child abuse for profit and sometimes paid for by tax dollars.
Also The Program on Netflix. It’s a really well put together documentary made by one of the students at a similar school.
Ho. Lee. Shit.
I’ve been reading this over the past few days since you posted it, I’m on chapter 69, and just wanted to thank you for sharing it. This is the most insane mind-fuck, eye opening read I’ve ever read. Even just experiencing this story 2nd hand through the words of the author is absolutely soul crushing. I can’t even begin to imagine what these kids have gone through.
I was sent to a facility like this in Utah as a teenager. After completing a “wilderness program”. I have basically blocked out a large part of my teen memories as a result.
Reminds me of Paris Hilton’s experience in Provo where she dealt with assault. Apparently these places are so unregulated, that there’s basically no regulations.
these places are so unregulated, that there’s basically no regulations.
Isn’t that just “unregulated”? “Completely unregulated”?
How many more need to die more the FBI launches a real investigation? These crimes go over state lines and some are even transnational like Atlantis Leadership academy.
The problem wasn’t the lack of checks, it was not following up on the vomiting. Tbh q15min checks visualizing the face with a flashlight throughout the entire night should be considered an act of cruelty.
Does it mention using a flashlight? I just read they’re supposed to check that she’s breathing.
“As a result of Duenez’s death, Vive said it would re-train staff to observe three breaths for every client every 15 minutes and to “carry flashlights for checks at night” to ensure “head and neck are visualized” during those checks.”
Hopefully not in their face. You can use a flashlight to illuminate an area without directly pointing it at something.
Red flashlights can help. I’ve done nightly checks on SUD patients. Although, usually their roommates will say something before you get a chance to find out.
