                        Wednesday, July 9, 1997

  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, Mr. Peter Campanelli provides vital clinical 
services to individuals afflicted with mental illness. In his capacity 
as president and chief executive officer for the Institute for 
Community Living, Inc. [ICL], he is confronted with a difficult task.
  He has organized and directed a private not-for-profit corporation 
for the purpose of development and operation of community residences 
for the mentally ill within the catchment areas of two large State 
psychiatric hospitals. ICL currently provides approximately 560 
residential beds within various levels of care. Truly, Dr. Campanelli 
provides vital services to a constituency desperate for health and 
social services.
  Dr. Campanelli's career of commitment and dedication is exemplary. He 
combines his passion with pragmatism. Additionally, he passes on the 
breadth and depth of his experience through the process of teaching in 
the university environment. It is my distinct pleasure to introduce him 
to my House colleagues.
