Missing Puzzle Pieces
KIDSofEP:
Hello, this is Todd from kidsofelpaso.com.
I recently copied the following snippet of information from documentation I was reading:
""Evelyn Bish*ff who is listed as AARC alumni committee and phone coordinator, had a child in KIDS of North Jersey and her husband was on the clinical staff for KIDS of North Jersey. We are currently looking into whether or not her husband currently holds a position with AARC""
The information mentioned an "Evelyn Bish*ff" as alumni committee and phone coordinator and possibly her husband as clinical staff. I am very interested in this couple as I believe that they are the parents of a child admitted originally to KIDS of El Paso in late 1986/early 1987 and subsequently relocated to New Jersey after the El Paso KIDS facility closed in 1989.
I am posting as I would be interested to know if their daughter, Gene (Jean) was admitted to AARC after KIDS of North Jersey was closed and also if the Bish*ff's are still associated with the program. If so it would be one of the longest program association that I am aware of.
17 years is a long time...
Names have been partially masked.
Any information is much appreciated.

Evelyn Bishoff has 4 kids none of them named Jean the oldest boy is 20 so i don't know how the wrong connection was made with KIDS.I have been involved with AARC since the early days and know the Bishoffs well.
Thanks,
Lin
KIDSofEP:
Lin, Thanks much for your response. Based on the information you provided, it is likely a different Evelyn Bish*ff at AARC. The Bish*ff parent at both KIDS of Bergen County and KIDS of El Paso had only a daughter named Gene and a younger son named Tom.
You state that you have been involved with AARC "since the early days"...I would be curious to know if there were ever any former teens that were in KIDS of El Paso admitted to AARC. They would have been there in the early, early days -- after KIDS in Jersey closed. All information is appreciated and thanks again, Lin, for your response.

No former Kids of EP or of BC have ever been admitted as clients, though some worked at AARC as peer councellors and one works as clinical staff now.

Do they have a website online or is there anywhere where one could be informed of the credentialed staff at the facility? Not necessarily peer staff due to confidentiality issues, but I think clinically credentialed staff are different and I'm very interested.
