[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about if Sidwell ensures that each of the current patients receives comparable care in DC at what they currently pay? For a start.

They might also take steps to ensure that the services that WH was providing, and gave every intention of continuing to provide until they got a huge monetary offer, continue to be provided in the DC area.

But at a minimum the supposed Quakers with their commitment to social justice should take care of the people they would otherwise put on the street.[/quote]

Isn't your beef with WH, not Sidwell?  Sidwell is paying $32 million, and certainly isn't stopping WH from spending every dime of that making sure that WH residents still living in a year and a half can continue to receive care and to find appropriate places to live.  And, WH still owns the post office grounds, which provides them with significant income.  If you're upset about what WH chooses to do with these millions, to make good an any contractual commitments or moral obligations to its residents, bring it up with WH.  These are serious issues but the relationship and obligations between WH and its residents is not Sidwell's business. [/quote]
