Hi my name is Corey and I'm a member of Young Adults Striving For Success. In YSC youth are treated wrongly.They are subjected to inhuman conditions. If a child that does a crime in the City of New Orleans or the State of Louisiana they should be treated like a human not like a dog. Children have rights like everybody else.

In the last three weeks there have been reports of youth being hit in the face with a belt and a buckle by the staff. Also, youth have been reported to have serious wounds that were not treated. Two girls were pregnant and did not receive the care they needed. Some of these kids were at YSC just for missing school or having no other place to go. Do you think that's right for those kids to be treated like that? These guards stay working and they are not put in jail. What kindof city do we live in? It likes throwing away helpful people for the city. The child that you are throwing away could make New Orleans a nice place to stay. What's going to happen to this city future if we give up on our youth?
