RUMORS OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AND OTHER PROBLEMS AT GROUP HOME

The rumors are swirling around a home for adults with cognitive and physical disabilities. Several sources report that a group home in the Bloomfield area is not exactly a place people might want to work in. For example a former employee named Sophia Dixon is said to have worked 13 years at this Bloomfield facility with a decent evaluation. For some reason Sophia was given a negative evaluation and wanted to know why! Then sources indicate Sophia became the target of a male supervisor who might have made comments unbecoming to his position about her. Somewhere along the line racially charged comments were placed in an email about Sophia [ still working on finding out exactly who sent email]. On March 1,2018 Sophia Dixon was fired.

The DCF Plantation Blog is still collecting data on this issue. In future stories DCF Plantation will focus on the following story lines at this Bloomfield group home. The home is funded by the Department of Development Service.

1. Long working hours and low wages.
2. Charges of  male supervisors and female staff intimacy [ with cover up by management ].
3.Breach of Hippa violations against Sophia Dixon.
4. what the community can do to help Sophia Dixon.

STAY TUNED.
