Under the agreement signed Friday, the Tierra Blanca Ranch High County Youth Program has agreed to give the Children, Youth and Families Department access to students and their files for the next 12 months.
Previously, the state didn’t oversee programs such as Tierra Blanca.
The ranch also agrees not to use mechanical restraints, to supervise teens placed in segregation and to file incident reports.
The Chandlers said they will be meeting the public during the Community Yard Sale that will be held at the Courthouse park March 15th.
Persons wanting more information on the Ranch, or to offer support may contact Tierra Blanca Ranch High County Youth Program Post Office Box 1266 Deming, NM 88031. http://www.tierrablancaranch.com
