Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > The Ridge Creek School / Hidden Lake Academy
Just my opinion...

I may be wrong here, but I think Mark's position was more like what Bill Gray at HLA. He was in charge of operations, not the clinical director. David Jordan was the clinical director. I have no idea who took that role on once he left.
Deborah:
I don't think so. That sounds like this position:
The staff member with primary responsibility for planning, developing, implementing treatment services, supervising staff who deliver the treatment and ancillary services, and developing in-service training shall have a master's degree in psychology, social work, education or other related fields and experience and/or training in working with children in an outdoor therapeutic environment.
Which sounds like Jordan/Sorrells position.

Bill Gray had almost no day to day involvement with the students. You hardly ever saw him unless he happened to be moving from one point of campus to the other, or if you were in the admin building. Someone who has no involvement with the kids would not neccesarily need to have qualifications for dealing with kids.
This is apparently a far cry from Mark Keith. According to these reports and by the very addmission of HLA apologist, Mark was heavily involved in each childs stay at Ridge Creek.
Not the same as Bill Gray by any means.
So again how was Mark Keith qualified for his position?

I apologize. I wasn't clear. I meant that he does many of the jobs that Bill Gray did in terms of operations. Of course he is more involved with the kids that Bill was. The point I was making was that I don't think he was clinical director. He was quick to admit that he is not a counselor and according to ORS he probably had no business being out there. I just know of a lot of kids who credit him for turning him around.
We all know that Len could care less about meeting ORS requirements. I think that is probably a big reason why David Jordan left.
RobertBruce:
So again how is he qualified and what is the purpose of Ridge Creek?
