In 2005, a new division of Spectrum Institute, known as the Emancipation Project, is being launched. Its mission is to liberate minors from abuse. The Project has a special focus on the needs of juveniles who are abducted, transported to, confined in, and subjected to forced mental reprogramming in privately owned residential facilities. Each year, thousands of troubled teenagers are sent to such facilities, without due process of law by their parents. Some of the parents are well-intentioned but many have themselves been abusive to their children. Unfortunately, a widespread pattern of human rights violations and abusive practices have been reported at many of these detention centers. The Emancipation Project is working to stop these abuses, regulate this industry, promote positive alternatives, and empower survivors with legal remedies.
