Genesis Development is making changes following what the Board of Directors has deemed as budget shortfalls.

The Board has identified several financial difficulties, including receiving partial or full payments from the Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) from the state’s privatization of Medicaid system. The Board says one of the changes is moving interim CEO Wendy Malone to an advisory position to the Board and Genesis leadership. Another change will be looking at partnerships with other organizations and companies to continue to provide services to all of its members, including transferring mental health services.

Development Associate with Genesis Development Bill Gephart tells Raccoon Valley Radio that Genesis is committed to continuing services and wanting to put their best foot forward to serve all of their members. Genesis Development is an organization that supports, creates opportunities for people with disabilities. The company serves 12 counties, including Greene, Dallas and Guthrie. Raccoon Valley Radio will bring you more information as it becomes official.
