OHMYGOSSIP — Paris Hilton is “dedicated” to shutting Provo Canyon School.
The socialite and DJ spent some time at the residential treatment centre for teenagers and called for it to be shut as she claims she was abused there and has “lived with that since the day she left”.
Speaking to the crowd at the protest, she said: “It’s something so traumatic that you don’t even want to think it’s real. It’s something I blocked from my memory for forever. Today, I’m not here as Paris Hilton, I’m here as just another survivor who was abused, who has lived with that since the day I left.
“And I am dedicated to shutting down Provo Canyon School, which will cause a chain reaction among this entire industry. They want us to be ashamed and we’re not the ones who should be ashamed’ and added that ‘The people who should be ashamed are the ones who work at these places.”
Paris says she was physically and mentally abused at the school
She said: “I was abused at Provo Canyon School, and now I’m taking action alongside my fellow survivors to make a change.
“Survivors, let’s work together to ensure no child ever has to endure the levels of abuse and hardships we had to go through. I pledge to advocate for all the survivors and put all of my effort into reforming the industry to ensure that no more children are harmed by these for-profit companies. This [petition] is the first step we’re making toward positive social change. This petition is just the beginning, and I’m so proud to be breaking code silence. We believe that shutting down Provo Canyon School will be the domino effect we need to create real change. We need your help. Please stand with us, and let’s shut Provo down.”
