Do you know more details about that linkage? As far as I can tell, it is through Proficio Management, Inc (http://http://fornits.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27534). Back in January of 2008, Proficio VP Kimball DeLaMare announced that they would now be providing management and support services for three new programs. These programs were Aspiro (Randy Oakley, Brian Church), CALO (Ken Huey, Nicole Fuglsang), and Renovo Boys Academy of Missouri (Brian Allred).

Aspiro has since been bought out by its primary management/leadership team. It would appear that Proficio functions as a start-up umbrella to help nascent programs get off their feet. As Randy Oakley says of them, "Proficio created an employee friendly company and has provided leadership, expertise, and vision. Proficio enabled Aspiro management to conduct Aspiro's business as they saw fit. By managing the accounting, legal, and technology operations during our formative years, we were free to focus on what we did best, and that is creating and operating an amazing new Therapeutic High Adventure model, and changing the lives of kids and families."

Proficio is supported by:
West Ridge Academy[/list]

I wonder whether the kids from CALO will experience the same difficulties obtaining copies of their files in coming years.

Did I hear correctly? Was that Kenneth Allen, Director of West Ridge Academy, that was called to the scene? Kenneth Allen is also the CEO of Proficio, the umbrella company that "manages" CALO.
