PfP Announces Plan to Merge
with Community Alternatives
Places for People (PfP) is taking a major step to ensure people with the most severe mental illnesses always have an open door—or doors—to hope and recovery.
With the future in mind, PfP is moving towards a merger with a mental health partner. In February, the respective Boards of Directors of PfP and Community Alternatives (CA) gave approval to proceed with formal negotiations on merging as a single provider.
The proposed merger would take effect Jan. 1, 2011, and would result in an increased client base, a wider range of services, and improved efficiency designed both to benefit clients and to ensure long-term sustainability of services.
VOLUNTEERS "BLITZ" PAGE BUILDING Over 150 volunteers joined PfP Board members and staff on Saturday, April 24, to brighten up the alley and surrounding lots at PfP's Places at Page building. Coordinated by PfP and Operation Brightside, participants removed trash and debris and trimmed and removed overgrown brush as part of a special "Project Blitz."
PfP is very grateful to all who donated their time and energy to this project.
