A Parallax View of Welfare Graft and Poverty Pimping: SCHARP and Ideal Program Services
Get In the Boat: Detective Damastes, or, How I Became Spider-Man, part 17
In part 2.17, I visit Ryann’s recommended mental-health clinics, SCHARP Behavioral Health and Ideal Program Services; I find insecure business practices, incompetence, and class-tiered service at SCHARP; I find an unauthorized locked facility, fake names, and safety fraud at Ideal Program Services; and, in the absence of county or state regulation, I found organized crime corruption at both.
This is the story of how writing Rytius Records helped me to heal traumas from childhood sexual abuse and thereby enabled me to escape contemporary narcissistic abuse.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: None this time.
The inspiration for this story comes from Valou, The Cool Mommy, at @Blueprintstothe5dkingdom, who helped me to build up the courage to tell it.
