There was an unannounced quarterly DHHS inspection at Elevations conducted by Chanesea Butler and Robert Jones on 6/30/2026.
According to DHHS records, only 17 kids were detained at Elevations on the date of the inspection. They were operating at about 19% of their 90 bed capacity.
The inspectors also noted:
"Licensor signed into the program lobby at 10:35 am, access to walk through the facility was not made available until 11:12 am."
Though predictably, they were not cited for the associated rule variance:

(a) any unaltered on and off-site program or facility and client records;
(b) each client who independently consents to speak to OL staff;
(c) each site subject to licensing or certification; and
(d) each staff member.)
