Congressman Adam Schiff introduced legislation aimed at regulating the country's residential treatment and "boot camp" programs for troubled teens yesterday. While some facilities successfully treat young people, a federal report from 2008 cites instances of physical and emotional abuse at a number of camps across the country.

The report also revealed that many religiously-affiliated camps still offer gay conversion therapy--a practice already banned in California.

The legislation would hold treatment centers to new federal standards and outlaw discrimination against disabled teens and LGBT youth.
