Four months after closing its doors, Highfields is open for business. The residential treatment center finally re-opened. In February, claims of abuse forced Highfields to temporarily shut the facility down. The first new tenants are arriving.

The goal of Highfields board members was to reopen sometime during this summer, and now that they reached that goal, they want to make sure their troubled past is just that, the past. There have been three investigations, hours of staff training and 138 days since teens walked the grounds at Highfields.

Larry Miesner, Highfields interim president and CEO: "It seems like more than a 100 years than a 100 days."

But now the youth treatment facility is open for business and preparations for the return of troubled youth can be seen inside and outside the office.

Larry Miesner: "I think everyone of us is excited about the reopening."

Larry Meisiner, the interim president of Highfields, says teens can expect some changes once they arrive. One of those changes are two-way radios. Menisner says staff members in charge of youth will each have the devices to help improve safety.

Larry Miesner: "If a resident needs additional supervision, with a few seconds notice, we will have additional support."

Out of the 48 beds at Highfields, only 24 will be made available. Mesiner says he's in no rush.

Larry Miesner: "We want to do this right, not just fast."

A couple of teens from the Detroit area are expected to arrive at Highfields soon, but so far, no teens from Ingham County have returned to the camp. However, one Ingham County judge believes that could soon change.

Judge Janelle Lawless, Ingham County: "We are hopeful, by the end the summer, we will start looking at placing youth back there."

Representatives for several Ingham County judges are expected to meet with Highfields officials later this week to discuss when Ingham County teens will return to the camp.
