Dr. Janne Holmgren, now a professor of Mount Royal College in the Department of Criminal Justice studies and a former staff member at AARC, attended and worked at Kids Inc. in the early 1990s. She strongly emphasizes that AARC and Kids Inc. are profoundly different:
“AARC is a treatment facility and organization which adheres to a governing board of directors and the legal community at large. Kids Inc. was not a treatment centre of any kind as it failed to include the community at large and excluded rather than included its clients into becoming fully responsible healthy youth and adults who could contribute to society at large.”
http://www.aarc.ab.ca/index.phpIf Kids was not a treatment cente of any kind, why did the Wiz work there so long?
What qualified Janne to work at AARC?
Why did so many people from Kids, Brian Neal, Pete Jerkoff, Janne, the Wiz, Squeaky Luciano, etc., end up working at AARC? Since Kids wasn't a treatment centre of any kind, there was nothing about time in Kids that qualified these people to work in a real treatment centre.
