Paris Hilton has welcomed a bill reforming teenage treatment centres in the state of Utah, following a recent testimony in front of state lawmakers about her own ordeal.
Ms Hilton, who testified against the Provo Canyon boarding school in Utah, said she both experienced and saw teenagers being restrained by staff, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.
The 40-year-old media personality said she was “grateful” and “so glad” to see the signing of the bill by state governor Spencer Cox on Tuesday, reported PEOPLE.com.
The bill officially signed into law on Tuesday introduces official oversight of the state’s treatment centres for “troubled” teenagers for the first time in 15 years.
