Abuse reported in some youth residential treatment centers

Season 2024 Episode 196 | 8m 37s

A recent Senate investigation found that children in residential treatment facilities are sometimes subjected to abuse and neglect. We hear from people who lived in these facilities when they were younger, and Ali Rogin speaks with Sixto Cancel, founder and CEO of Think of Us, a nonprofit aimed at improving conditions for youth in the child welfare system, to learn more.
