The
Better Business Bureau (BBB),
founded in 1912, is not a government agency, but a network of
local BBB organizations based in the United States and Canada,
which work together through the Council of Better Business
Bureaus (CBBB). The BBB goal is to foster a fair and effective
marketplace, so that buyers and sellers can trust each other
("Start With Trust"). Many BBB services can be accessed online
through their website.
BBBs gather
and report information on business reliability, alert the public
to frauds against consumers and businesses, provide information
on ethical business practices, and act as mutually trusted
intermediaries between consumers and businesses to resolve
disputes. News media frequently turn to the CBBB and local BBBs
as expert sources of news about scams and consumer issues. |

For
many years, the owner of StoneTrends, LLC, Theodore H. Liebig has
been an ardent supporter of The St. Louis Arc. The
mission of the Arc
is to provide the
highest quality services to help people with developmental
disabilities, and their families achieve their goals. It’s
extraordinarily talented and commited staff work hard to provide the
kind of individualized services that can really help make a
difference to an adult… to a child… to a family. Services
provided are designed to maximize choice and to support people as
they build quality lives within the St. Louis community.
The
St. Louis Arc was founded in 1950 by a group of activist parents
who wanted more for their children with mental retardation. It
has a long tradition of advocacy and respect for the rights of
people with developmental disabilities—from its earliest work in
opening education and recreation opportunities to today’s commitment
to high-quality, person-centered programs and services. For the past
55 years, the St. Louis Arc has offered a wide array of
services, including residential, employment, leisure, respite,
family support, early intervention, prevention and advocacy.
