Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Vincent Moleski arrived unannounced to deliver findings on this complaint investigation. LPA Moleski met with program director Vean Loeun and explained the purpose of the visit.

This investigation consisted of record review. LPA Moleski received an incident report from this facility on November 7, 2025. According to the incident report, a client of this day program (C1) was discovered missing during program hours around 12:20 p.m. on November 7, 2025. Staff were preparing for C1’s usual restroom routine, but could not find C1. Staff members began a search for C1 in the facility and the surrounding areas upon this discovery. A few minutes later, staff noticed police activity nearby, and were informed by officers that C1 had been spotted by community members walking near businesses located several hundred feet from this facility around 12:17 p.m. C1 was contacted by responding officers around 12:28 p.m., according to the report.
