--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---I saw it. For the past couple of years, at least, restrictions have been eating the same meal as the rest of the students, minus dessert. They have also been eating in the dining hall, not below the counselor building where they used to eat.

Never mind, I found the answer. They shuffled it off to RC.
T 0204 290-2-7-.07(7)(a)-(d) Daily CareSS=F(7)
Campers shall be provided food of adequate quality and in sufficient quantity to supply the nutrients needed for growth and development.
(a) "Food for Fitness - A daily Food Guide," developed by the United States Department of Agriculture, shall be used as a basis for meeting these requirements.
(b) Campers shall have a minimum of three meals available daily and snacks.
(c) Menus, as served, shall be retained on file for one month after use.
(d) No more than 14 hours shall pass between the last meal or snack of one day and the serving of the first meal of the following day.
This Requirement is not met as evidenced by: Based on campers and staff interviews, the camp failed to provide campers with adequate quality of nutrients while participating in the intervention program. The findings include:
1. During interview with 20 campers on August 16, 2006, 4 campers (#1,2,3,4) of 20 revealed Ridgecreek conducts Intervention which last around 3-4 days. In addition, campers #1 and #5 stated the camp will take away parts of the MRE (meals ready to eat) as punishment.
2. During an interview with the Director on August 16, 2006, the Director revealed Ridgecreek did conduct an Intervention Program for Hidden Lake Academy (HLA). However, the Director further indicated that this program is no longer active and it was discontinued in May of 2006. In addition, the Director revealed that there are no policies in place for the Intervention Program.
3. During an interview with the Director, it was further revealed that the campers who were admitted to the intervention program came from HLA and did not go through the usual admission process. In addition, when the surveyor requested to review the records of the campers that
participated in the Intervention Program, the Director stated that no records were kept on these campers.
4. During an interview with the Director on August 29, 2006 via telephone, the Director revealed the camp does not use food as punishment, but sometimes the campers may not like the MRE's and choose not eat the whole meal. ::roflmao:: In addition, The Director revealed the camp even supplies vegetarian meals when requested.
The surveyor was unable to conduct a record review, due to records not being kept on campers that went through the intervention ..

That's absolutely correct - it got pushed off to RC for them to enforce the Restriction diet on HLA students who were put on Restrictions or sent off to RC because they were "stuck therapeuctically". (Translation - unqualified Peer Group counselor couldn't get a kid to make therapeutic advances so let's punish the kid even more.)
Trying to say is HLA had nothing to do with the Restriction diet for the past couple years is absolute bullshit.
YOU as a counselor/employee knew what was going on and YOU made the choice to turn a blind eye. Don't you ever feel remorse for what you put these kids and parents through? How do you live with yourselves knowing that every single thing you told and promised to do for these kids and their parents was just one big lie? Do you realize how many lives have been ruined??? And please, stop with the excuse of blaming everything on Len. You had a choice and your choice was to stay there and be a part of the fraud and lies.

Your assumption that all employees turned a blind eye is a faulty one. You have no knowledge of the attempts to get things changeds or the reports made by the employees to outside organizations in an attempt to get things changed. There was much that went on by the employees that you don't know about.

You're completely anonymous here, and apparently are no longer employed there. What reports were made to which outside organizations?

If that's true, then give us a list of the agencies/organizations that were contacted. We can compare lists of the agencies/organizations that parents and students have contacted over the years.
