In a letter from Lea A. McGregor (pfc's exec director in 8-1994) to
Mr. John Larson of the Oakland County Health Division in Pontiac MI,
Lea mentioned this:
"I have come to the decision that it is in Pathway's best interest to
explore the possibility of procuring a placement license from D.S.S.
Mr. Cable encouraged me to contact our local licensing department and
explore this possibility. He further assured me that he would be
willing to make rule exceptions for our agency, should we decide to
apply for a placement license, thereby alleviating many of the
difficulties that Straight, Inc. encountered trying to meet state
requirements.
Should I or our Governing Body decide that Pathway should not or can
not pursue such a license, I agree to completely dismantle and
reference or connection to a host home program at Pathway Family
Center.
I will keep you abreast of these proceedings. Feel free to call me if
you have any questions or input.
Sincerely,
Lea A. McGregor
