Elan School-Poland Springs, Me. 

A for-profit youth rehabilitation program in Poland Springs, Maine that is designed to force its own wards to actively promote its own continuation and at the same time work, guard, and punish one another.

It uses a brutally intense work structure as well as food and sleep deprivation to keep its residents in a constant state of exhaustion, fear, and humiliation of which the latter has actually been documented by Elan as a "therapeutic tool".

The program only exist due to a complete monopoly held on the child's communication to the outside world and the complete inability of the Maine Department of Education to make visits to any institution, categorized as a school, without a 24-hour notice to said institution.

Damn, I remember when I was in Elan School-Poland Springs, Me. I was forced to scream and degrade other children for 18 hours a day until it seemed so normal that I was convincing the newer residents to do it. I would even turn them in if they said anything that hinted at the fact that they wouldn't or that it didn't make sense. What the hell was I thinking?

Elan School: LIES!

Elan's purpose is not to change an ill-behaved child into a well-behaved child, but rather to return home a responsible young adult.

I remember as a new student (Elan School-Poland Springs, Me.), I was crying when I was told to scrub a garbage can as a punishment for something so minor that I can’t even remember the cause. I has stopped cleaning it, and that was when the staff determined that I has to be restrained and dragged to “the corner”, isolation in a room to the point when one barely feels human. I tried to fight back, as any normal person would do when one is touched and forcefully grabbed without consent. Instead of just bringing me to the corner, the staff had other students hold me up, my hands and feet restrained, as other students were forced to scream and degrade me.
