We the undersigned feel strongly that the project known as Pennhurst Asylum in Montgomery County, PA is ill-conceived and inappropriate for these reasons:

        1) it unecessarily exploits those who are developmentally disabled

        2) it is offensive to their families and friends

        3) it sets a poor example for the youth of our community

Now, therefore we pledge the following:

       1) we will not seek employment at this project

       2) we will not patronize the project

       3) we will encourage our family, friends and acquaintances do likewise

                  (please enter name and town on signature line)

Disgusting. They should have some respect for the history and the families involved. SHUT IT DOWN.

This is just sick. Making money off of the suffering of others is never okay. I will never step foot near that place.
