DECEMBER 5, 2001 - The Michigan Department of Consumer & Industry Services (CIS), Bureau of Regulatory Services has issued an order of summary suspension and notice of intent to revoke action to Wayne County family day care home provider Evangelia Glenn, 3330 Hazelwood, Detroit, Michigan.  Evangelia Glenn has been ordered to immediately cease providing care to children effective 6:00 P.M. on Tuesday, December 4, 2001.  These actions are the result of a recent complaint investigation of the family day care home.

Under Michigan statute, a Family Day Care Home is defined as “a private home in which 1 but fewer than 7 minor children are received for care and supervision for periods of less than 24 hours a day, unattended by a parent or legal guardian, except children related to an adult member of the family by blood, marriage, or adoption.  Family day care includes a home that gives care to an unrelated minor child for more than 4 weeks during the calendar year.”

The December 4, 2001 findings of the complaint investigation found that:

·         Two child care children were left alone in the basement with a minor family member.

·         A minor family member made an inappropriate request of one of the children.

·         Ms. Glenn threatened the children and used inappropriate language towards them.

Effective 6:00 P.M., December 4, 2001 the Summary Suspension Order requires Evangelia Glenn not to operate a Family Day Care Home at 3330 Hazelwood, Detroit, Michigan or at any other address or location.  Children are not to be received for care after that date or time.  The order also requires Evangelia Glenn to inform all of the parents or guardians of children in care that her certificate of registration has been suspended and that she can no longer provide child care.

An Administrative Hearing regarding the Department’s suspension and revocation action will be scheduled.

Evangelia Glenn has held a certificate of registration to operate a Family Day Care Home since March 3, 1998.  The certificate of registration was for 6 children.
