Exposing Pinehaven Christian Children's Ranch by publicizing their history of institutional child abuse in order to prevent further pain and suffering of innocent children. To learn more visit www.pinehavenabuse.blogspot.com.

My name is James Mason.
I am an alumni of Pinehaven Christian Children's Ranch from 1994 to 2000. During my time at Pinehaven, I experienced and witnessed many deplorable acts of physical, mental, and spiritual abuse.
For the past three years, I have worked with alumni and concerned citizens across the country to prevent the abuses I suffered and witnessed. To my regret, we have yet to win this battle. Every night in Northwest Montana, another child lays in bed contemplating the decision to either run for their life, continue to live the life of a victim, or commit suicide to end it all for good. No child should have to consider these options, and I will not stop fighting until every child institutionalized in the state of Montana is free to heal, grow and prosper without fear of abuse and neglect.
Do not be fooled by the rhetoric of people whose entire lavish existence is dependent upon the survival of the troubled teen industry in Montana, and the necessary silence of those who are harmed by or object to the inevitable abuses that occur within this system. To this day there are absolutely no regulations in place to ensure the basic health and safety of children imprisoned within "adolescent treatment facilities" run by faith-based organizations in Montana. Facilities like Pinehaven Christian Children's Ranch are encouraged to operate without any oversight, prevent residents from reporting abuse, and develop behavioral health programs based entirely upon religious extremism, with complete disregard for any proven medical or psychiatric principles.
