Good news & bad news
Two great items in the BC media today:
- A terrific Vancouver Sun Op Ed marking Children's Day by the Representative for Children and Youth, Mary Ellen Turpel Lafond.
- An in-depth look at the cost benefits of investing in early intervention from The Tyee's Tom Sandborn.
The disturbing news arrived late on Friday afternoon via a BC Association for Community Living press release alerting the community & expressing well-deserved outrage at yet another stealth attack against families. The BC Liberals introduced and passed surprise legislation, despite the objections of the oppostion NDP, that eliminates the requirement to have family voices represented on the board that governs Community Living BC.
