I work in a group home on staten island, where thousands of people who have mental retardation reside. We also have a George Gervis Clinic, which is in I.B.R (the institute for basic research). Apparently, he was a great guy. Staten island was also home to Willowbrook, like Letchworth, was an institution that abused and tortured thousands of disabled persons. My patients lived at letchworth and willowbrook, and believe me, it scarred them for life.
