Thumbs up Educational aide

Now, finally, those convicted of drug crimes can get Federal aide for tech schools, community college and universities!
See:

This is a wonderful advancement in our society. There is now an opportunity for a future free from drugs, no longer chained down due to past mistakes!
This is FANTASTIC!

Shalom!

What a great site!!!!!

Thank you so much.

I am of the firm conviction if our "government" would take all the money the DEA spends and use it for helping alkies and addicts to not only get clean but become a productive member of society, there would be no "need" for the DEA.

That site and that particular report certainly shows some progress, finally.

Again thank you for posting this.

Love and (((((to all))))),

Yes, it's changing...too slowly for my liking, but, it is changing.
And I know I need to work on patience!
That "war on drugs" is such a farce. And I agree with your assessment. When will we pay for treatment instead of prisons?

Shalom!
