Utah Revokes Provo Canyon School License as Regulators Cite Years of Safety Failures

Utah revokes the license of Provo Canyon School and orders the boarding campus to cease operations within weeks unless the facility requests a hearing within 15 days.Regulators point to an extended record of noncompliance dating to 2025, including insufficient staff-to-client ratios, unnecessary restraints, neglect and repeated delays in employee background checks.State health officials had imposed temporary restrictions in May after staff failed to secure immediate medical care for a severely injured student, and investigators say the new owner has not fixed long-standing safety gaps.Paris Hilton, who attended the campus in the late 1990s, says the revocation validates allegations of beatings, surveillance in showers, unknown pills and forced solitary confinement, and she is backing families that are suing the school.
