Was Your Child the Victim of Abuse at Camp?

Only so many options exist for parents of troubled teens. One of them is rising in popularity: camps. A variety of camps exist to help teenagers overcome behavior problems or drug and alcohol addiction. These wilderness camps present themselves as therapy providers, and many parents turn to them expecting their child to return changed for the better.

Unfortunately, what these boot camps for troubled teens fail to mention is that frequently they are completely unregulated. There are no laws requiring them to be adequately staffed, to provide proper staff training, or to be effectively run. Unfortunately, this means that these places are frequently the sites of child abuse, serious personal injury or even wrongful death.

At Heard Robins Cloud & Black LLP, our attorneys are committed to holding these businesses accountable for their negligence.

We Want Child Abuse at Therapeutic Camps to Stop

The children that attend these camps are in a very vulnerable position. Not only are they essentially alone in the woods, many have been sent to the camp because of a history of poor behavior. This means that the staff will tend to place the blame back on the child for any abuse allegations that are made.

Our lawyers know how to sort through these matters. We know how to carefully research cases to present the truth. We can handle cases involving any type of child abuse, such as:

• Staff members refusing to provide a camper with food or water as punishment for bad behavior
• Staff members hiding medicine from kids, or simply failing to provide it when required
• Staff members directly assaulting children
