The state budget hearings with department heads are ominious indicators of potential slashed budgets decimating health and social services.  This year will be even more difficult than last year. 

Your Voice To Your Legislator is imperative.  The 2010-2011 budget will be the single largest challenge to services in our state history since much of the restorations were made with non-recurring dollars. Want to do something about it NOW? 

GO TO www.capitol.tn.gov and easily look up your legislator.  A call, email or visit will make the difference.
