Noteworthy:
Tranquility Bay opened in 1997.
The Director of Tranquility Bay is Jay Kay.
He is the son of WWASPS President, Ken Kay.
After dropping out of college, Jay Kay managed a gas station mini-mart in San Diego, CA.
He then worked as a guard at Brightway Adolescent Hospital and eventually became the administrator of the facility.
Children were "evaluated" at Brightway before being sent to other WWASPS/Teen Help affiliated facilities such as Tranquility Bay and Casa by the Sea.
During an investigation of Brightway, Utah State officials found that many of the patient care plans were identical and the staff had failed to report at least one suspected case of abuse.
Jay Kay was declared bankrupt in 1994, just 2 years prior to the purchase of Tranquility Bay.
