Are you digging into other facilities owned by Acadia? Seems like that is the root of the problem.

And I was surprised to see Acadia Healthcare is publicly owned, so one effective way to pressure them is to encourage their large shareholders to divest.

Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ:ACHC) has 275 institutional investors and shareholders that have filed 13D/G or 13F forms with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). These institutions hold a total of 114,093,418 shares. Largest shareholders include Price T Rowe Associates Inc /md/, Wellington Management Group LLP, Vanguard Group Inc, BlackRock Inc., Aristotle Capital Management, LLC, P2 Capital Partners, LLC, Dimensional Fund Advisors Lp, JP Morgan Chase & Co, Elliott Management Corporation, and Ares Management Llc.

T Rowe Price recently increased their stake to owning 14.8% of the company, and Wellington Management Group increased to 11.4% ownership. Vanguard appears to have their holdings split between entities but together own almost 15%.

If you have any relationship (retirement accounts) with those organizations, you could contact them, divest yourself and explain that you encourage them to divest themselves.

That counts as bank, congrats!!

Seems a bit strange that the article doesn't cover NIMS (National Incident Management System) or any aspect of the DHS/FEMA organizational structures that exist to solve exactly this problem since the California State Fire Dept came up with them in the 70's and gained national support post-9/11.

If the agencies had been following their FEMA ICS training (is it required in TX?) command and control lines would have been a lot more clear.

Dude, you gotta watch the video versions, there's some good shit getting left out of the text.
