As an EMT, I see the opioid crisis up close and personal. We need to continue to fund treatment options, education, and law enforcement programs that get help for those affected.
One size does not necessarily fit all when it comes to education. Charter schools offer a way to provide the different focus and process that some students need to succeed.
We need to examine and support ways to expand access to higher education. One example is dual enrollment programs for high schoolers woking with community colleges.
Our community colleges are hidden jewels. They teach skills for jobs that communities need and, working with the university system, offer a more affordable way to get college credits.
