2003 YOUNG BLACK WOMAN SURVIVOR OF PCS

TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN:
My name is Kira Lamb and I am a PCS SURVIVOR OF 7 MONTHS OF THE MORMAN BASED CAMP GROUNDS OF PCS. I was 16 years old when my mom sent me there IN 2003. My mom like many sent me there because she was tired of my teenage attitude that every parent will have to face with teenage daughters eventually. I was not doing drugs, sexually active, or of any harm to my self or others at the time. It was mostly a "LESSON" to show me who was boss! (my mom) I was a military dependent at the time so when my mom saw that TRI CARE COVERED THE SERVICES 100% SHE JUMPED ON THE OPPORTUNITY. To make a long story short. I am a black or african american woman and at the time 1 of 4 out of the 200 girls housed there. So you can imagine how differently we were treated. Angie Davis was the worst staff member this treatment center therapist and Staff loved having control of who advanced and who didn't . Since 99% of their treatment is based on staff member and counselor decisions and evaluations the staff thrived off of the fact that they knew insurance companies wouldnt pay for a child to discharge (plane ticket home) unless the counselor recommended that they we're at the right stage or status that the program required the patients to be to go home. As a black girl in the little Mormon Prodominatley caucasion world of theirs I was called ******s by staff memebers ANGIE DAVIS. I was held back many months and not allowed to advance to any of the normal developing stages such as those a normal human being should be allowed . such as talk time with peers verbal communication with others or how a bout normal physical activity such as work outs. This program is horrible, Not to mention when you make a "HOTEL STATUS" you live in a hotel basically working under the table as a housekeeper in the hotel rooms. I finally made it out when i was allowed a visit out since the therapist realized i wasn't legally supposed to be staying there and the military demanded a phsyc report to be done by MILITARY PERSONELL since they couldn't understand their funding for my "so called need to be there" I left for a home visit and refused to come back that was the only time i recall being rebellious is when i told my mom she could kill me before i EVER GET BACK ON A PLANE TO PROVO UTAH AKA HELL
THANKS
