This is traumatizing. Imagine the first and last person you'd look for if you're in trouble is your parents. But they're the one that sent you there! I doubt they know what's really going on there. I noticed the victims don't necessarily blame their parents. These parents trusts these institutions to do the right thing too because it's recommended by professionals and experts because it's supposed to be "therapeutic". Imagine you're sent to this facility because you're a troubled teen. Your parents sent you. When you go back, you're going to be apprehensive to tell them about the abuse inside in fear of getting sent back or somewhere alike because you're still "troubled".

I'm sorry but Utah seems so hold so many secrets. It's kinda scary

Whattt!

disciplinary military schools aren’t for those who want to go to the military after maybe some but they dgaf what you do after looks great on a resumé tho

I AM SO MAD THAT NO ONE IS STILL HELD ACCOUNTABLE AT THIS.

Paris was also taken same way by kidnapping. How could parents do this to their own children? May justice be served and may criminals be put behind jail forever. God bless all the abused\harassed\assaulted kids. Thank you Paris for standing against injustice and harassment✝️🙏💖✌️. Thank you Kat for sharing ur story.

My disgusting mother shoved me in juvenile detention centres

In 03-04, two big dudes come into my room, first guy says my name is Stan, and my job is to take you from point A to point B. Stan took me to CEDU high school in Running Springs, California. Later on Stan and another dude took me to remote North Idaho, it’s a wilderness camp called CEDU Ascent. Anyways long story, those are the 2 places that Paris ran away from.

Need to send someone in there with a camera

The people that run this place should be tortured in Prison!!!!!!

This place did not change!!!!!! I'm sure of that. Please keep speaking up. They are only hiding it more.

I live in SLC. I have heard about this a year ago from Paris. It made me cry too to listen to Paris. I'm speechless how this is possible to happen without anything happening to burn this place down! All names should be made public! Kat this is nothing to be ashamed of! Remember how many kids you will save by using your voice and platform.

Provo's entire "statement" was just gaslighting 😳

Oh, they changed ownership in 2000? Well that doesn't say if the curriculum and personnel also changed, Always follow the money and do research on who owns what and what organizations they're a part of and lobbies they give money to. And then research all the educators and therapists they employ to make sure they really are licensed to practice and didn't just get their diploma from the university of Zanzibar.

Much of this report is clearly censored which makes me question the validity of the report mentioned here.

6:08 Really? A subscribe/like banner on a video covering abuse?

So awful you had to go thru this. You have a lot of grits to tell your story. You are a talented Tattoo artist, and I admire you very much.

Time to BURN em all down!

It bothers me that they refuse to put even an ounce of blame on their parents. If someone shows up to your house and drags your kid out of bed in the middle of the night. That should be a red flag. If they would do that in front of you what do you imagine they would do when no one is around. There’s no way i would ever be okay with sending my 15 year old kid off to a boarding school “for troubled teens” in another state only getting to talk to them weekly and very briefly. This is definitely solely the fault of the parents. Let’s call it what it is. They felt like she was being a burden to them and so that’s what these people treated these children like...

I'm curious how these schools get all the medications? If anyone can explain would be cool.

Saying 'Survivors' is a bit strong.

They were better off callin the school terrified straight!

If this place is sooo bad why not help the girl’s there now or that will be there in the future gettin cops involved open a investigation they have the money for it especially Hilton

That therapist needs to be fired

I used to dislocate my knees to keep from nodding out during punishments/ consequences ""

ThAnks to both of you for bringing more attention to this

If it helps you out Kat, I will buy an eyeshadow palette of yours out of emphaty. xD

*THERAPY DOES NOT REQUIRE MORE THERAPY*

I love Kat 🖤She’s been knocked off her square multiple times & always comes back stronger 💪🏾

Any therapist shouldn't recommend parents to send there children to this place this is just ruining childrens lives why is this place a thing?! It should be banned from all countries this shouldn't exist.

Any decent place will have family therapy sessions, family day out without staff etc.....

👹🕊🕊🕊🌏

we could call abuse at the place i was at they did not abuse but they were strict nothing like that place

i went to a residential

Sounds MK ultra school

I'm sorry but whether you like kay von d os so irrelevant to this story, she is sharing her story about being abused and trying to help others and yall just have to put that sentence on? Like literally they to focus on the actual issues of this than personal traits or morals you do or don't like🤧

Why is the word abuse muted every time?

Anyone, who also stays on Reddit, remembers the post about a teenager asking for help on how to run away from a terror “boarding school”?? It’s been a couple of years now but I remember refreshing for updates every day. They had to smuggle a phone in and would go days without eating and/or being sedated.

And that’s on keeping a knife under my pillow 🤗 I would have fought for my life if people came into my room at night.

If I was trying to shut down the school and make sure that stuff like this never happened ever again, I would take the undercover route before shining a spotlight on top of it. In situations like this, when attention gets brought to something bad, people will go into places like this to see if all of everything checks out and proper protocols are being followed. That gives places like Provo School time to make changes outwardly so that everything looks kosher. had it been some undercover situation they could get actual evidence when Provo doesn't know that they're being watched. I believe there's some kind of statute on what can be let in as evidence but once there's video evidence, proof is proof. At the very least public opinion can be almost just as powerful as Court hearings. But a big problem of schools like this or even just places like this is that there's always going to be parents who don't care enough about their children to continue sending them to places like this anyway 😔

Please believe me that what follows this is with 100% understanding of PTSD and being too scared to talk about it but let me say this with my own opinion. If I lived through something as horrible as Provo and knew that other children were suffering the same fate there's no way that I would wait as many years as I did to speak up about it. I wouldn't be able to knowing all of the children still suffering at a place that I had my worst experiences at. Years and years went by and silence. And kat didn't say anything until paris did... My conscience probably would have been more torn up by that than having lived through the actual experience because some of those kids lived through even worse experiences than they did

This is so wrong 😊😊😊😊🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💗💗💗💗💗💓💓💓💖💖💖

It's a very evil world we live in....

i searched the school up, and there was this paragraph about how its not abusive or anything and how they would never do that, and that it "helps" the kids who attend there. this school should be destroyed.

Wow

I'm so confused... does "abusive" have to be censored in order to not get demonetized? I see a lot of random words getting bleeped out lately.

I think so

That school needs to be shut down!!

That school makes my ₵ØØ₵Ⱨ tingle

what is that video game in the beginning, during the narration? im sorry, but is that segment just completely and tonally off? we're talking about a woman who was blindfolded and kidnapped right... jfc

Well she is right. They arent schools. In fact, some of these places aren’t certified as education facilities. I would be really surprised if they are certified in mental health too. I don’t know what doctor would refer parents to these places, or what parents would send their child to an in house facility without checking the place out first. I would need to see where my kid would be sleeping, what they’d be eating, who would be caring for them, etc. How that happens I will never understand.

Sounds like circle of hope

This is just like the uk carehomes I left with so much trauma

That sounds like an evil 12th century school 😭

I never heard of this place until now. I'm glad Kat and Paris are coming forward so this place and others like it can be shut down. Children even teenagers need positive guidance and care. Not sedation with psychotic drugs that could harm their growth.

This is so sad. Doesn't matter who you are NO ONE should have to experience this ever. The people who have worked with this school deserve serious jail time ASAP.

What the heck the parents agreed to this terms? SERIOUSLY!!!???

Wow... This one hits close to home. I live maybe 20 minutes away from this place. Surprisingly I’ve never heard of it, but this is insane.

As someone who went to an alternative school (not at all anywhere as abusive as the one Paris and Kat went to) for my last two years of high school due to various issues I was struggling with at the time, I really empathize everyone who is going through this or went through this kind of situation. It's awful a place that is supposed to help you and make you feel better is instead abusing you and treating you like garbage. That place should be shut down.

I'm honestly horrified that this place exists. It describes all the genuine fears I had when my mom would constantly threaten to send me to a behavior modification school. My heart goes out to all the victims who had to go through such abuse.

Can you talk about Amos Yee? I feel like no one is talking about this issue?

I’ve been living in Utah for 11 years and I’m barely hearing this. 👁👄👁

Sur that "school", that shrink, and your buck-passing parents, UGH. You are strong; that was my emo response, you would knnow better than me for sure. Too many abusive cults in this country, holy tamales. Thanks for shining a light.

I couldn’t imagine in a situation like that

Omg this is really sad

the crazy thing is that there was a 50 percent chance she had her birthday in there

If i was a governor i would shut down every single one of these down even if they change

Out of curiosity why did you cover Abusive on the tweets?

Why is the word "abusive" censored?

Demonization

Reminds me of the behavioral camp that mommy blogger sent her teen son to, where he had to sleep outside without a bed during and after his stay.

NO! THEY CANNOT DO THIS!

This is false because I know a guy in my school who was at one of these places. And he has ptsd and a multitude of other issues after being there. And he’s only 16 now. So this has happened after 2000

? it can happen anytime

What’s a way we could take places like this and shut them down. I dint want anymore people going through this and I hope the people who have gone through this is safe and healthy

Sounds a good bit like placement. I spent about 5 years bouncing back and forth between different placements and foster homes. When I was first released by CYS it was a huge adjustment. Took forever for me to even get used to the fact I was allowed to leave a room without permission.

$220 a day?! thats insane.

what?

This is what happened with Paris Hilton

I just can't imagine sending my kid in some place where I am not. There is always possibility for stuff like this

This is unspeakable...so unreal...it feels like something that can only exist in the realm of fiction yet here we are.

These kind of so-called-school should be immediately shut down IMMEDIATELY! No, child, teenager or any person deserves to be treated like this...........if a therapist suggests to send a child to these schools their licence should be revoked.....And the people who runs the school should be behind the bars.....

This is like the jobcorps I went to.

The way privacy was something surprising to her after leaving provo and even getting ptsd from being alone and having time to herself is just horrific, no child or teen should endure something like this

I can't understand how this kind of thing is legal. Firstly the taking children away at night by strangers this would be highly illegal in Australia.

i went to all girls school it really seems like my school too lol

This is *JUST* like Finnish mental institutes and child "protection" homes. I hope the institutes change for us mentally ill people!!

Why does this sound like the novel "Bootcamp" 🤔😮

Her cat was like it’s okay Kat 🥺🥺🥺

Doesn't surprise me that its it's here in Southern Utah. Only place that would be less surprising is Texas.

I think we alll forgetting about Circle of Hope

Paris Hilton just did a documentary as well.... oh well maybe I should’ve waited a few seconds before I commented! 🥺

You should have linked the petition in your description not your videos

Sounds like a Mormon thing to do tbh

This isn’t a school. This is a prison. It doesn’t deserve to be called ‘Provo Canyon School’. It’s ‘Provo Canyon Prison’.

Ummm how do places like this exist it’s genuinely straight out of a dystopian horror film

I went to a school very similar to this I was so emotionally damaged I ended up doing things that got me in real trouble I was expelled. Which was a great thing. They tried to get my parents to transfer me to a conservative boarding school in Texas my mother said no thank god. Schools like these exist everywhere it’s awful. Watching this video made me remember

Awesome that you have captions in your videos,its great for people with hearing issues or not understanding english and learning

I've been looking for rehabilitation center for mental illness and every single one i find has horror stories of neglect, manipulation, and abuse. and those are centers you enter VOLUNTARILY..

DO ZOE GOT ARRESTED PLZZZX

I knew about schools like this before Paris' documentary. Because of Amy Serdaris' sister, Tiffany Serdaris.

Dont stop there paris! Shut down every abusive school! Every evil institution! Get them all! Save all the kids 😁
