the "oversight" you have now is a sham. it's practically non-existent. i read the ORS report on the violations, they missed alot of crucial stuff. Most importantly, they still use "fall-out", which pits the kids against each other and causes violent conflicts. or the quality of the food....it's horrible. like prison food. i had full metabolic screen when i quit the place, i had extremely high levels of all sorts of nasty stuff. ever seen "super size me"? they use the cheapest possible ingredients at HLA.

Ethics is the questioning, examination, and study of Morals.
one either has morals, or not.
my question for current HLA employess would be (particularly for the millitary and christian/mormon people), Have you examined your morals, or do you allow others to do so for you?

This is interesting as the poster obviously is familiar with the ORS regulations regarding CCI's. Maybe the poster should remind ORS of their own regulations.

It would seem unethical, not to mention misleading, to advertise as a Therapeutic Boarding School and Residential Treatment Center, when one is only licensed as a CCI. Does the State of Georgia not have licensed alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities
with bonafide Addictionologists that have bonafide M.D.s.?
Just how does Buccellato propose to rehabilitate children with the miriad behavioral problems, drug and alcohol addictions, mental health disorders,etc? Ask these questions. Ask the ORS how they can only determine a CCI license will suffice.
The children will certainly not be "cured" by rolling logs or carrying rocks for hours on end. Nor will the children be helped by using them as inexpensive labor.

This isn’t a problem which is unique to HLA.
What most states and schools struggle with is that there are no categories for “Therapeutic Boarding Schools”. Most states have not defined parameters for licensing so they choose something that is close like CCI so that they can at least get the place licensed and some regulation in place. If they tried to apply the regulations of an “Alcohol and Drug rehab center” (for example) then this wouldn’t cover the kids who were attending for non-addiction reasons.
This is a good question for ORS, as you stated. If enough people hold their feet to the fire they may come up with licensing criteria…. As soon as one state does it the others can follow using it as a template.

get the fuck out.
that's not the issue at all.
there's already a template for tbs regulations.
no one is jumping to model it and programs
aren't lobbying for monitoring and regulation.
