A group of parents and employees held a rally Monday opposing plans for privatization at the Bellefontaine Habilitation Center.
The Missouri Department of Mental Health announced in August it would seek private vendors to take on 120 of the residents at private, community-based programs.
But many employees and parents are unhappy with the plan.
