Stop the electric shock treatments for kids with disabilities at JRC
Stop the electric shock treatments for kids with disabilities at JRC
The Issue
Problem
The 'Judge rotenberg centre's is a school for people with mental disorders like autism, however, painful electric shocks are used to change the children's behaviours. These shocks are 3x more powerful than a police taser and cause serious burns. Many former patients have been tortured and scarred by these horrific treatments. Please, help me stop this. This is revolting.
Solution
We will send this petition to Alex Azar, the secretary of HHS. He has the power to stop this.
Personal story
I myself am autistic (albeit high functioning) and honestly I am shocked by the HHS's inaction. Help me change this. Help save people like me. Please.
