Lincoln Behavioral begins moving clients out
TweetYOUNGSTOWN — About 70 youths were moved out of Lincoln Behavioral Health Care’s residential facility this morning for “their safety,” according to a company spokeswoman who refused to identify herself.
Large, unmarked white vans were loading the young people at about 10 a.m. They were being returned to the counties who sent them there, said the woman, who then ordered The Vindicator reporter off the property.
Youth, 8-20, are sent to Lincoln for counseling and other services. A Lincoln spokesman said Friday that it would close its residential facility, but that it was negotiating with a national company to take over the business, located in the former Woodside Receiving Hospital on Indianola Avenue on the city’s South Side.

My heart goes out to all the employees affected by this lay-off. They have families, bills and additional living expenses that will be greatly affected by this. The truth is Carl Vaccar, CEO lives in a 1million dollar home, two-story car garage, RV, 2 Harley Davidson Motorcycles, Show cars, etc. He never invested any funds into the building. The building living environment was not fit for a rat to live in. He and his wife are guilty of using those innocent children as pawns to support their life style. They proclaim to be Christians but we know Christians don't lie nor steal money from people. He has been getting away with this for years and it finally caught up with him. Thank God. God said, "Venegance is mine".
