P.U.R.E., Inc.
P.U.R.E., Inc. (Parents Universal Resource Experts), is based in Florida.
The owner is Sue Scheff.
Scheff's child was a "student" at a WWASPS (World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools) facility and during that time, Scheff was reportedly the most successful referrer they had ever had.
Scheff later became a vocal critic of the schools and began her own referral agency, P.U.R.E., Inc.
Scheff is not certified as an educational consultant.
Despite a criminal investigation into abuse at Whitmore Academy, Scheff continued to refer children to the facility.
Even though the investigation has resulted in 7 counts of child abuse and hazing against owner Cheryl Sudweeks, Scheff continues to support Whitmore Academy and has been critical of those making the allegations of abuse.
For more information, please see our Whitmore Academy section.

Does PURE tell parents which programs pay them for referrals/placements?
:???:

Of course not! They lie and say they don't get paid!
