The Troubled Teen Industry has some explaining to do and this week Caroline Cole and Rebecca Mellinger Grone are here to tell us why. They are the co-hosts of the podcast Trapped in Treatment (produced by Paris Hilton & Warner Brothers) that weaves together personal accounts with historical detail and expert opinions to shine a light on what really happens at teen behavior modification centers and how this billion-dollar industry has flourished for so long. The industry that promises hope and help to parents struggling with making the best decisions for their kids... is actually handing out more trauma than actual therapy. As Kat, Caroline, and Rebecca talk about these programs, in which some have ZERO licensed clinical staff & are run by teams focussed on dollar signs, this episode will leave you not just shocked, but pissed off. 

Caroline Cole is an entrepreneur, policy advocate, and Special Advisor to the International Coalition Against Restraint and Seclusion. After 2 ½ years in a “troubled teen” program, she knew she needed to change the system. In her work, Caroline draws from her own experiences with trauma to drive social change. Caroline, alongside Paris Hilton, penned the federal bill, The Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act, and has successfully passed laws across the country to prevent youth from being abused in institutional settings. 

Rebecca Mellinger Grone harnesses the power of entertainment and media platforms to drive social change. Head of Impact at Paris Hilton’s media company 11:11 Media, she is reforming the "Troubled Teen Industry" through policy change, public awareness, and providing direct assistance for institutional abuse survivors.
