Survivors need to sign this - only 100 signatures so far - falling short....
-
Anyone know why it is necessary to disclose the names and city, state of the people who are signing.
I have heard people are willing to sign,but are reluctant to sign due to the lack of annomitity.
Can this be changed. The Government officials can have the info not the internet viewers.
Annomitiy will provide more signatures.

I Dont think one petition is going to do the trick.
-
prolly not, but something is better than nothin' people should also write personal letters to their representatives
-
well from what i know in being in one ofthe programs.. its going to take a hell of alot of stuff to bring em down. people have been trying for years, and nothing they do does anything. DSS shows up every now and then you no, and they'll clean the facilities really good, but im telling you nothing happens/ Even with all the stories, its not enough proof. Good luck though
-
yup, so get out those pens people and write letters to your representatives, somethings gotta give sometime- persistence is key
this is for the addresses of where to direct your letters- come one everyone, don't let me be the only one out there sending letters out:

Mrs. Sutton signs the petition....
Since the preventable death of my daughter, Michelle Lynn Sutton, in a so-called Wilderness Therapy Facility, I have hoped and prayed for a law that would govern this lucrative, out of control industry. There are two fatal flaws, that cannot be regulated. The "window of loss" mentality that says of the death of each child, "we lost ONE, but we are saving many," and the Hitlarian mentality about these kids that continues to claim their young lives. These two fatal flaws must be weeded out of the industry by improving the quality of care within the industry, while seeing to it that a level of expectation is in place and enforced. I have often said that I as a parent could not have done TO my daughter what was done TO her and walked away a free person. How is it that this industry can? Sincerely, Michelle Sutton Memorial Fund, Inc. Catherine Sutton Colusa, California
