Barb Bach - letter

Thank you, Patti, for all your hard work on behalf of Emily. And thank you, especially, for giving me the courage and confidence to fight on for her.

I am working with Community Liaison to work through the education and planning needed for meto obtain Self Determination for Emily. The Comm. Liaison is a 2 year grant funded position put in place to help guardians and people with DD become more independent in their living choices. Wayne State provided the grant through their DD Initiative. I truly hope that by Emily's next IPOS, next winter, I will have her choices and decision making back for her.

Right now Melissa's Staffing Agency is handling everything. Since I trust her so much, it will work. But she is actually a full support provider. So Emily is in another "Pathway home" – but it isn't licensed. I hope to be able, next year, to use Melissa's Staffing Agency as a FI.

Emily and the residents are happy and well cared for, thank goodness. Thank you for keeping the home going uninterrupted.

Patti's Comments: This card brought tears of joy and made my day!

Patti,

There are some people in this world that you know you can count on when you need them: people who show they care beyond just sending a card. People like you who go out of their way to do the right thing and take action to make the world a better place.

Thank you Patti for your years of work to improve life for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and coming out to support the Arc of Northwest Wayne County's 50th anniversary celebration!

I appreciate all you have done and continue to do to support this important organization.

Love,

Chris Lerchen

Patti's Comments: This is why I work so hard every day – when I am able to help a person with a disability and their family improve the quality of their lives.
