FLORIDA - Reform school alumni recount
severe beatings, rapes
Note from CAICA's president:
This article recounts abuse men now in their 60's endured when they were young in a system that was originally designed to help them. That same system, now known as the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) has been in the spotlight on accusations of
continued abuse.
Indeed, this needs to stop. You can read
about the abuse here on CAICA and also at
www.justice4kids.org.
None of us enjoys reading these
stories, but until we open our eyes, and our hearts, to these children nothing will change. And change needs to occur so our most
precious, our children, are protected. Most kids are already in some
sort of trouble by the time they make it into a system such as this. They do not need to be abused. They
need to learn compassion and caring from adults, otherwise how can we expect them to grow into responsible,
compassionate, and caring adults? - Isabelle Zehnder
