We, the undersigned, as concerned, responsible citizens, call on the developers of the former Pennhurst site, as well as state and local lawmakers, to preserve Pennhurst's Main Administration Building as a lasting memorial to the suffering and kindness, the triumphs and tragedies great and small, and the resiliency of the human spirit all played out at Pennhurst over its century of operation.

We remember the lessons of the past and honor our duty to pass them on to the future. We ask that the developer and lawmakers do the same by supporting this preservation effort.

We demand that any changes to the Pennhurst site incorporate preservation of the Administration Building as a memorial. We support adaptive reuse of the structure so long as it restores its beauty and maintains its integrity.

In solemn and concerted effort,
The Undersigned
