In a report that was just released under the D.C. Freedom of Information Act, a federal monitor catalogued a litany of abuses and indignities suffered by District group home residents at residences operated by Individual Development, Inc. The city indicated as early as 2007 that it would take immediate action to remove residents from the troubled homes, but it did not follow through. Only after the release of the report did the District reach a settlement with IDI that seeks to address the problems. Washington Post
