This is a “”“school”“” that makes “pray away the gay” camps look like lovely vacation experiences. They primarily cater to families with neurodivergent kids under the guise of helping them learn how to function in a neurotypical society. They use methods like GEDs to administer electric shocks when students “act up”, long-term restraints (which the students have to carry with them in case they have to be “conditioned”), solitary confinement, sensory deprivation and food deprivation. I’d highly recommend reading the entire article, especially the parts about behavioral modification, controversies, litigation, and work culture. It’s so much worse than you can imagine. I wanted to quote parts of the article to highlight how bad it is, but I would be copying and pasting half the article.
This place is still in operation.
Really sums the whole center up. It’s depressing how many years I’ve been following this through ASD advocates and survivor stories.
