If there is anyway to continue offering this service, it is most needed.

Either way, we are going to pay for their care at some point. Why not have the political courage to address their needs before a crisis occurs?

I have 2 children in the public Mental Health System as well as the public school system. It is vital that we fund the public health care system. Both of my children have primary private health coverage and secondary medicaid. Even though I feel like they have the best coverage that they could have, it is often very difficult to access care for them.
I am the Executive Director of NAMI Greenville and see daily the families that are much less fortunate than mine. Kelly Troyer

Please think about the outcome without this program to help all the famies in S.C. At least people are doing the right thing by getting help for their loved ones. It's the ones who don't you should be questioing. This is why S.C. ranks at the bottom of what matters most.( schools, no cell phones when driving, no jobs,sex offenders, and CRIME. Start doing someting about these fields. Thank You

It's a travesty to allow children to become poorly functional adults that cannot be effective citizens and require life long support. We must intervene early all the research evidence points to this and yet we continue to spend a fortune on the back end because we don't do the correct thing to treat issues in early childhood.
