That's a good question, it certainly seems to have some effect but I'm not sure it's there yet. 1) it hasn't achieved the goals it set out for (firstly changing French youth care, secondly achieving significant progress in treatment of anorexia). But it's certainly trying. It's certainly getting the attention of policymakers from youth care, they're just totally unwilling to change. It's also hosting conventions for researchers into anorexia. 2) perhaps one could say that it has a small measure of success on the first goal: it hasn't changed any other institutions but it seems to be trusted by French youth tribunals, despite its rules. Tribunals will assign kids that would otherwise be incarcerated to this, and they're free as a result. As for outcomes I'm not sure. Despite their rules, this institution seems to have managed to avoid fucking up bigtime (which cannot be said for child services as a whole).
