On this page, our national sex abuse lawyers will look at sexual abuse lawsuits against residential treatment facilities. Residential treatment facilities have become very popular in recent years, offering inpatient mental and behavioral health services to residents, and often housing juveniles with state funding.
Recent reports and investigations have shown that sexual abuse of residents is a major problem at these facilities. Victims of sexual abuse at residential treatment centers can file civil lawsuits against the facility and get compensation for their injuries.
