Felton management repeatedly ignored parent and staff concerns over a toxic-smelling odor in a Family Developmental Center classroom, waiting seven months before ordering an investigation and discovering a dangerous gas leak.

There were numerous reports of gas leak-related illnesses that caused absences. When the gas leak was found, Felton management kept the information hush-hush, taking zero accountability.

When an active shooter was outside Felton’s Solmar Learning Center, Felton did not communicate with parents during this frightening incident. Many arrived to drop their children off and were turned away by armed police. Parents were only informed of the incident the following morning. Despite requests from staff and parents, there is still no safety protocol for active shooters in place.

Please join us in our fight to keep the clients and workers of Felton Institute safe and sign the petition.
