    <title>Abuse at Interlochen</title>
    <link>https://www.interlochenpublicradio.org/abuse-at-interlochen</link>
    <description>On July 29, 2026, Interlochen Center for the Arts released the findings of a two-year external investigation into abuse at the institution. It covered misconduct over seven decades. These are stories related to that report, its aftermath and any related incidents, including some stories from before the 2024 launch of the investigation. IPR News functions with editorial independence, which means no senior Interlochen officials determine our coverage or preapprove what we report.</description>
