Searching for Survivors' Experiences
« on: November 22, 2006, 11:00:59 AM »
I am currently working on a series of news features and possibly a book about the troubled teen industry (for my school's mandatory Senior Project), and would like to be able to include first-hand experience.  If anyone who has experienced one of these programs, I would really appreciate it if you shared your experience.  I realize that this is difficult for many people and if you do not want to post it, you can always pm me.  Also, none of your personal information has to be published , and you can always stay anonymous.  Thank you.

Cool, how much would you be willing to pay a "survivor" for their time?

I'm not paying, I was hoping for people who were actually willing to share their experiences and help at least a little with awareness.  I am only a high school student, and while I will publish the articles and possibly try to publish a book I will not make any money from this, so I can't just pay people.  Besides, if I did I would just get a lot of fake stories, I want true experiences.

Fuck... will somebody delete one of those, please? And this one, too, while you're at it?
