1. WITH: ADOPTED-LOCKED AWAY-MONEY
2. DESCRIPTION: LAKE OZARK, Mo. — One of America’s largest residential treatment centers for adopted kids is often used to place vulnerable children using taxpayer dollars. An Associated Press investigation reveals that despite tens of millions in public money flowing into these kinds of institutions every year, there’s little oversight and few consequences for such for-profit, privately-run programs. In contrast to the industry’s slick marketing, the lack of accountability leaves kids exposed to chaos, abuse and violence in lockdown facilities like Calo Programs in rural Missouri.
