I heard that Victoria Winebarger, now: Branches Counseling, PLLC

Worked for Pathway Family Center in the administration (Senior Therapist) for several years.....

Had a kid in Straight Inc. and helped move Straight inc. Michigan stuff when the Straight Inc. program closed....

Helped start Pathway Family Center by moving all that Straight stuff to the nearby Pathway location...

I wonder..... does she still believe in what Straight Inc. offered?  What Pathway Family Center offered?

I wonder what Branches Counseling, PLLC will offer in the future? More of the same?

Would you trust them if they promised to change?

Does anyone that I haven't spoken with yet know anything about Beth Bunn, as she is the other half of Branches Counseling, PLLC  .........I heard that she was the Chief Clinical Officer (CCO) at Pathway. I wonder how long she worked for them.

Questions that will hopefully be answered one day.............

Unfortunately, I have no answer to any of those questions, but I am with you on the fact of being sick and tired of these people.

Amy was the kid and the equipment was in their garage when straight closed. So what? Vicky was the Indy PFC director, again, so what? So now there's a couple ladies trying to keep the dream alive... yet again, so what? They're as washed as they come. Fortunately the Empire crumbled, or at least went into a deep freeze. Where's that PFC parents lawsuit at? Where's Terri? lol... Post it now!! LOL All I could find is this Open case #49F121003OV012293 there in Marion Co. all those other ones were dismissed. No class action or whatever... The Prosecutor up there in Valpo refused to pursue PFC for that $300,000 or so they "stole" from the taxpayers. Jeez, I wish I could just throw away $300,000 cash whenever I felt like it. I'd bet some folks up there would be pissed off about their tax money getting ripped. Oh well.

 MDCH John said branches has no license in MI, but maybe they don't need one. As long as there are folks who bought the hooklinesinker of the program, you'll have some stray roaches out there squirmin around sellin their snake oil on hapless naive and otherwise "unaware" people. Such is life. Try asking the local schools if they refer to branches, churches too and impostor yourself to them. Last year I asked Beth Bunn if she knew anyone in FL they could refer me to but she said no. Hi Beth!! Love ya Beth!!  :twofinger:  I'm curious as to why you *wdtony4u* say things like "far too slow...". IF you put them on YOUR time schedule, they'll jump through hoops sooner than later. Spit out some names... supporters, board members, EIN #'s, um, get in their face! EXPOSE them!!!

It appears that the "Branches Counseling, PLLC" website is still up.

Does anyone know the name of the insurance company who insured Pathway Family Center? Did they even have insurance? And does Branches have the same insurer?

More questions. No answers.

I heard she wasn't talking. I guess this gathering of information is beyond the scope of our abilities.

I never doubt my fact finding ability. Never have, never will. I got a receipt here with a name of an insurance company that did business with KHK, but that wouldn't quite be one from Branches, but then again, you never know...  ;)

According to Pathway's last 990 they paid several thousands of dollars for an insurer. I think it was on page 18 of their last tax filing. Doesn't state the name of the insurer though. I wonder if Branches Counseling, PLLC is using the same insurer?

 page 18 - $20,431.00 for insurance of program services.

I think I just figured out why you want to know the name of Branches insurance company.  :roflmao: Man, I really am getting rusty :smashcomp: I wonder now why this is not headline news.

Branches is not legally required to divulge the name of insurance companies they use to lawyers, pissed off past customer parents, etc... At the very most, I'd expect them to either stiff arm this case, again change their name or go deeper into the dense jungle to hide. Where are the police reports and arrest records filed by those parents that name the "defendants" Branches, Beth Bunn, Terri Nissley, Winebarger, etc? Yeah, this will be interesting. Now, I told you all a LONG time ago that you need $$$$$$$ and lots of it to make a difference when suing this program. That's a lot of pizza!

If it were me, I'd sue Porter County since they just handed Terri hundreds of thousands in free taxpayer money with no strings attached. That was effed up dude... All you got to do is get past the county Sheriff's dept,  :roflmao:  I asked that prosecutor guy up there about that situation but he adamantly declined to prosecute and hung up on me. I am sure other folks will have much better luck.
