Community Alliance for the Ethical Treatment of Youth (CAFETY)

As many of you know, the egregious treatment of youth occurring at the Judge Rotenberg Center in Canton, Mass was recently been brought to the attention of the international community through a report issued to the U.N. by Disability Rights International's President, Laurie Ahern. The movement towards justice continues in this powerful Washington Post Op-Ed piece by Ms Ahern.  We are asking our supporters to consider writing a brief letter (200 words or less) sharing your thoughts on this issue.

For far to long too many of us have been forced to live in silence, our fate determined by those who believe torture is a justifiable form of 'treatment'. Today, we all have an opportunity to let the readers of the Washington Post know what we were once powerlessly unable to speak to.

Letters may be submitted to the Washington Post here.

In Solidarity.
