Abstract
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Diane K. Watkins, attorney and Partner at Kansas City law firm Wagstaff & Cartmell, has taken on a critical new role in championing the rights of survivors from the Troubled Teen Industry—a powerful and punitive network of youth residential treatment centers, therapeutic boarding schools, religious academies, group homes, and wilderness therapy programs that target, exploit and injure struggling children and teenagers. Recognizing the urgent need for legal representation for those who have endured the hardships of these institutions, especially in the underserved communities of the Midwest, Diane is focusing on seeking justice for victims and holding accountable those responsible for any harm inflicted.
