Sheila Ferguson is responsible for instigating the proposed destruction of my wildflower garden, which will occur at an announced time after the end of this month (June). She is the head supervisor of the residential programs of Provena Behavioral Health.
Her boss is Sandy Lewis, the Executive Director of Provena Behavioral Health. She is the only person within this organization with the capacity to overturn any decision made by Ms. Ferguson.
Another person to contact is Peter Tracy. People have complained to the Champaign County Mental Health Board (CCMHB) many times in the past regarding Provena Behavioral Health's treatment of its clients. The CCMHB controls the funding of some of Provena Behavioral Health's programs, and so Sandy Lewis and Sheila Ferguson are vulnerable to the opinions of its board members.
It isn't even clear to me that Provena Behavioral Health has the legal right to destroy my wildflower garden, because they may be only the managers of the apartment complex where I live, rather than the owners (Champaign County could be the owner of this property, but I'm not certain about this), and so the proposed destruction of the wildflower garden could be viewed as the wanton destruction of valuable public property.
You are welcome to write to these people, but I must tell you that the people who manage Provena Behavioral Health have a history of not listening to anyone, except themselves. In my experience, they are extremely arrogant.
