Fornits Wiki

This Wiki contains information about programs for people under 18, which have used abusive methods against the children detained in their program or are under investigation by the Fornits forum for abuse.

Categories

A number of categories have been created to make it easier to find the facilities or firms.

General categories

• Behavior Modification History - Program History, from Synanon all the way to second generation CEDU clones (Not completed)
• Program directory - General program directory (Not completed)
• Therapeutic Community & Synanon History
• Behavior modification in the media

Program types

Education Consultants Roloff Homes - Christian Foster homes with an alternative approach to Christian love and empathy

Geographical

• World wide
• Listed in state categories

Large companies / associations

If a facility is a part of a larger company or member of association, there also exist categories for those.

Aspen Education Group WWASP CEDU - Most entries in this category are historical.

The Independent Small Programs Alliance (ISPA) Universal Health Services, Inc. - owns former CEDU programs

Persons in the industry

Individuals with relationships worth mentioning to the industry (so people can put a name of a face in their nightmare) have a category. Please put only factual and biographical information on the page and leave personal comments on the discussion page where they are welcome.

• Persons

Alternatives to placements

• Alternative solutions

Opinions

If you have an opinion, please put it on the discussion page. Input is always welcome, but reserve the page itself for facts, because it makes it easier to read. Remember to include survivor groups for each facility, as it makes things easier for survivors to have someone who had been in the same situation to talk with.

Alternatively, you can quote yourself (ie. "according to one survivor 'such and such'". But it should be relevant and informational rather than "the place is a shithole". The Fornits forum is more suited for that.

Please be organized, or help organize cluttered information. If you don't know how to use a wiki, or don't know what a wiki is... google it.
