Horrible Hephzibah House closes!

A few of you may recall that Hephzibah House was a far-right so-called Christian residential program for "troubled" teenage girls in Warsaw, Indiana. After hearing about some of the abuse there, I participated in a public protest against Hephzibah House back in 2009.

According to more recent reports, some who lived at Hephzibah House say the program was full of sexual abuse and bad nutrition, and that the health department had gotten on the program's case for a series of violations.

It deserved to be closed. It's not the only facility like this that needed to be shut down.

And now it has. Media reports say Hephzibah House has just permanently closed after 49 years.

Good riddance!
