Youth Residential Treatment Facilities: Examining Failures and Evaluating Solutions

From the Innovations Institute at the University of Connecticut School of Social Work: “On June 12. 2024, the U.S. Senate Finance Committee held a Committee Hearing on Youth Residential Treatment Facilities: Examining Failures and Evaluating Solutions. This Hearing was held in conjunction with the release of the Committee’s report, Warehouses of Neglect: How Taxpayers are Funding Systemic Abuse in Youth Residential Treatment Facilities. This report was the result of an almost two-year investigation into allegations of abuse and neglect at residential treatment facilities operated by four providers.”
