Help ensure future gubernatorial administrations can tackle these issues by supporting a permanent Children’s Cabinet and Advisor position.
Delegate Paul Krizek and Senator Jennifer McClellan have introduced budget amendments in the House (52 #3h) and Senate (52 #1s) to fund the Children’s Cabinet and a permanent Advisor position.
