Harris said. "Doctors worked
hard to bring the census up.
The trustees felt that for the
long range, this would be
best.
"We need somebody with
more hospital experience,"
Mr. Harris said.
"Bob stepped in without
any hospital experience and
did a super job. He brought
together all of the different
factions of the hospital. He
developed a rapport. He
brought back the hospital's
Jewish identity. Everybody
loved him. We don't harbor
any bad feelings toward him.
We just needed something
more."
Mr. Harris said he did not
know if being Jewish was a
criteria for the new ad-
ministrator.
"We may be beyond that
today," he said. ❑

enhance the hospital's Jew-
ish heritage.
He is credited with bring-
ing back to the hospital a
firm Jewish identity. Under
the Steinberg administra-
tion, Sinai's logo was chang-
ed to include a Star of David.
In the past two years, ad-
ministrators had been focus-
ed on finding a suitable
partner for Sinai during an
erratic health care era that
has left hospitals throughout
the country scrambling to
survive.
In merger talks with
Henry Ford Medical Center
and the Detroit Medical
Center, Mr. Steinberg 's
agenda included maintain-
ing that Jewish ambiance.

to really get going, we had to

$60,000 state contract forced
JVS last week to eliminate
its Displaced Homemaker
Program, which provided
job-training for widowed and
divorced women who wanted
to re-enter the work force.
The program, Mr. Ascher
said, had been a model in the
state since the early 1980s.
Mr. Ascher, who recently
testified before the Michigan
House of Representatives
appropriations committee,
said the cuts primarily
threaten programs for the
disadvantaged. He said he
will go to Lansing in the
coming weeks to lobby
government officials.
Anticipating state cut-
backs, Oakland County last
week slashed 4.5 percent of
its funds from recipient
agencies. Bath JARC and
Kadima receive county
funds.
"We're sitting on pins and
needles. It's pretty scary,"
JARC Executive Director
Joyce Keller said. "We're
entering an era of confusion.
The days of more govern-
ment money are quickly
dwindling. Our mission is to
make sure the people we
serve are affected as little as
possible."
Ms. Keller said she is not
sure where JARC cuts will
be made. She said she may
need to trim staff hours for
each of the 12 group homes,
where 75 clients reside.
Kadima, which operates a
six-person group home, a
seven-person apartment
program and an outreach
support program, will lose
two newly created spots for
its apartments.
In the last year, the
apartment program
expanded from four to seven
slots and was gearing up for
two additional positions.
"I'm thankful we hadn't
filled those slots yet,"
Kadima Executive Director
Miriam Iwrey said. "We
need to expand. Housing is
so critically needed. The
community has to make
commitments for these
agencies."
Meals on Wheels serves
hot meals to about 200
clients from Jewish Family
Service and Jewish Federa-
tion Apartments each week-
day. It is funded in part with

is putting a gun to
our head."

money from the Area Agen-
cy on Aging and the Oak-
land/Livingston Human
Service Agency, which also
is a target of cutbacks from
the state.
Meanwhile, officials of the
Jewish Welfare Federation
said they are finalizing
plans to hire a community
lobbyist in Lansing. Inter-
views for the position took
place this week. This, offi-
cials said, would give the
Jewish community a
legislative advocate.
Now the Federation will
ask agencies to pool
resources to pay for the
lobbyist's services.
"We are under incredible
pressure," said Federation
