Question 19: "Can you make an itemized inventory of which accounts (banking, social media, email, etc.) the true MMHCA has access to versus the ones that "dba Michigan LPCs" has access to? Can you explain why or how "DBA Michigan LPCs" has retained access to those MMHCA accounts? Which accounts are frozen?"

7. Requests for Information and Clarification:

Answer: Mr. Blundo and Dr. Schaeffer’s group control/possess:
• The organization’s old website mmhca.org i.e. they have the login and password information and have refused to give it to the elected Board.
• At least one bank account that had $10,000 in it last we knew, and seemingly other bank accounts the Board was unaware existed.
• They are using a PayPal account they control to accept money from people.
• All MMHCA’s past financial and other records.
• MMHCA’s old email system, Constant Contact, which was supposed to be discontinued the summer of 2023, which contains a member list that is several years outdated as well as email records going back over 10 years.

The bank, Comerica, chose to freeze the bank accounts that have just over $79,000 in them when Mr. Blundo disputed the elected Board taking over the accounts. Those accounts will remain frozen until the parties both agree who owns the accounts or there is a court order.

The elected MMHCA Board controls/possesses:

• Neon/Neon Pay - our emailing, membership management and payment receiving program.
A bank account which has proper legal checks and balances in place to authorized, multiple officers of the organization.
• The elected Board’s official email address is mmhcabi@gmail.com
A FaceBook page, a YouTube channel, a LinkIn group, and a Twitter (X) account which can all be accessed via mmhcaNow.org
• Our new website mmhcaNow.org (the only way to join MMHCA is via mmhcaNow.org )
Updated Bylaws created in collaboration with our attorney and members 4.19.24 Bylaws - MMHCA

DBA Michigan LPCs does not have access to the current member records or know when memberships expire. That is why they keep saying and writing they will honor people’s memberships, because they don’t know when those memberships started or when they end.

If you pay your dues through the Neon Pay system: Link to Neon Pay. your dues are safe, received by the elected Board, and being used only for member services, resources and lobbying, not for executive director pay. Furthermore, instead of paying $1000 per month for bookkeeping services (as was happening previously), the elected Board’s Treasurer, Krystin Sankey, is handling the organization’s finances at no charge.

Mr. Blundo and Dr. Schaeffer’s DBA Michigan LPCs group has a member mailing list that is several years out of date and older member records on the Constant Contact email system which was supposed to be eliminated summer of 2023. That is also part of why you are getting confusing messages from Mr. Blundo - he and his group don't know when memberships expire and he is trying to convince people to pay their dues to a PayPal account he has control of.
