• courthouse security,
• juvenile justice,
• school safety,
• reducing developmental disabilities wait lists,
• health programs, medical homes, aging and disability resource centers, 2-1-1, and immunization, and
• the Life Resource Center, State Hospital, Veterans' Home and Boys' School.

Charlie Hardy: Many parents worry about not providing for their children

Family decisions should be made around the kitchen table, not conference tables in Washington.
