[Mccoypottery-talk] Faye and Roger Jensen

[flury]

Kevin,

Did you check out the Federal Americans with Disabilities law for ADA
violations if there are some in some of data you're writing about.  Did you
ask to see policy from Voc Rehab on the work program?  Didn't know if you
tried that angle on the employment issues.

Some States have programs to investigate allegations of abuse,
neglect, and other areas for adults...may want to inquire at State
level if there is a program...Adult Protective Services that could
look into allegations/concerns.

Also the State or federal laws ...Child Labor Laws may need to
be reviewed when you spoke of minor children and wages.
