Governor Gregg Abbott has put into works a plan to help the most emotionally traumatized foster children of Texas with the help of the criminal justice department as well as the Department of Family and Protective Services. The program is planning on spending about 8 millions dollars in the hopes of providing children that are considered high risk and have had a trouble pass that can include children who have been victims of crime, have been admitted into psychiatric medical hospitals and have been admitted to at least two residential treatment centers in the past two years. I believe that the whole program sound like an amazing idea that will keep children who have already had a horrible a horrible experience with foster care to be kept in a not only safer environment but let them know that the government will do their very best to asses their need and give them what they need. I do have a couple of questions though that would include who would be assigned to actually implement these changes? Will the children have a choice as to if they want to participate? Also he said that they will choose a total of 500 children for the trial to see if the program actually works so lets say it does how will they hope to pay for all the other children that have been in such conditions? I hope such a programs goes through and help bring children much needed help after having gone though terrible events in there short lives.
