Shh, mind sharing what you asked?
If someone wanted a definitive answer, they should ask ORS how they would classify a facility that:
Provides diagnoses for their charges.
Provdes daily, mandatory 'therapy'.
Houses kids for 18-24 months, until they complete a 5 step 'program'.
Issues consequences for 'bad' behavior (BM).
Denies access to family and visits home.
Conducts physical restraints when deemed necessary.
The list could go on, but that should be sufficient to elicit the reply, "an RTF"- Residential Treatment Facility in Ga terminology.
