FYI ...

I believe that's Lott's Legacy (not Lost Legacy) Found this in the archives at Struggling Teens:

ACADEMY AT CEDAR MT. SUES LOTT'S LEGACY, THE FARROWS & SHEL MANN
(June 15, 2002)

Bruce S. Hughes, 435-867-1111 Founding Board Member for Academy at Cedar Mountain, Cedar City, Utah, 877-723-3729, announced the filing of a law suit against Bernie and Arlene Farrow, Shel Mann, and Lott's Legacy Youth Program, Escalante, Utah, Emilee Lott, co-owner, 435-826-4878. This announcement contains a response to a letter by Shel Mann, which has been circulating on the Internet the last few days to correct "the vast amount of incorrect information and confusing stories being told to parents, students and other parties." A full copy of the announcement, the Shel Mann letter, and any additional pertinent information will be contained in the Breaking News section of Woodbury Reports Online.

Sue Scheff referred us to Whitmore Academy. We enrolled our daughter there. But withdrew her amid allegations of child abuse against the owners Mark and Cheryl Sudweeks.  Our daughter was there: Oct 2004 until Nov 2004

All programs in Utah should be suspect because there are rules there that allow abusive measures such as isolation. The authorities are also reluctant to investigate reports of abuse.  Reports of abuse by former patients, parents, employees and professionals often fall upon deaf ears.  The polititians except huge donations from owners and operators of youth facilities.  Anything in Utah should be rejected right now.  There have been far too many reports of horrific abuse, death and maltreatment there.  Stay away from youth programs in Utah...... :skull:

Why the secrecy? Everyone knows she gets paid. May get this answer to a direct question to her: "Do you get paid for helping us?" Sue's reply;;;;"OH no, parents never pay me anything, I just want to help. bla bla bla......"

If the parents don't pay her then it must mean she gets paid by the schools.  That's even worse.  It means she works for the schools and not the kid or the parents.  That could mean that your kid goes to the highest bidder.

So then, that is an accurate statement.

No, that's right. PURE is paid by the programs not the parents. Sue will tell you this, and I believe I recall seeing this explained on the PURE site.
That's partly why PURE is so controversial. One *might* tend to refer to the programs that pay the most and certainly *might not* refer to a program that won't pay, with out regard for what is best for the child. It is considered by *some* to be unethical for this reason.
