Wow the troubled teen industry sucks and apparently so does the state run troubled teen industry. Isn't there some judges that have even been caught getting kick backs for sending kids to juvenile detention centers. It's truly sickening.
r/troubledteens for the camps I'm not sure about a sub for kids sent to juvenile halls.

Yeah the sober/recovery aspect is so fucking shady. Don’t even get me started on sober living for adults.
There’s a place in my town that owns one with no money out of pocket they charge ur insurance rent and all ur food and meds (overprescribed like crazy) and with little to no support and people actively using, when you eventually relapsed you went to…….
The rehab that they own! Where they would do the same but for like 45-50k a month instead of 20k
And you could do this literally over and over for free with no consequences
There’s some good ppl in all of those things but far too many are run by greed. The recovery industry has some dark parts ofc

Body Brokers was a good film about this. I'm in UK & our detox/ rehab system is thankfully very different. I was shocked at the shenanigans that went on. All based on a true story.

Yes in PA two judges were convicted of that - they were receiving bribes for sentencing children to the for-profit detention centers. Thousands of lives destroyed for a bit of money to people that were already rich.
Google "kids for cash" for the full story.
