Parent PBH Inquiry

Pat Wiegand is the parent caregiver of two adult DD recipients, Casey and Jason, who depend upon CAP Waiver supports to keep her family together and maintain some small level of community involvement.

You may recognize their names from their May 22nd Arc video at the Coalition Rally or from the touching Family Stories video earlier this year.

Pat and her family reside in Senate District 9 and House District 18. Her children, Casey and Jason, receive services through Southeastern Regional MH/DD/SAS Services (SRMHC) LME.

To: Rachel Porter

Dear Ms. Porter,

I am interested in the salaries of all PBH executives. I feel as the families of the IDD consumers we have a right to know how much of the funding is taken from them to pay high salaries. We as a group would also like to know how PBH is paying 14 million dollars for a building that to the best of our knowledge is for paper pushers. We don't believe there are any services in the building benefitting clients if this is not accurate information I will be glad to pass along any corrections you may have.

Thankyou,

Ms. Patricia Wiegand

ps I would appreciate a response before the DWAC meeting wednesday

To Whom it may concern

I am writting this request to find out if and where the salaries for executive officers of PBH can be found . It is our understanding that as a goverment funded company it should be made available to the public.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible as we have meetings where I would like to present the needed information.

Respectfully,

Patricia Wiegand
