Understanding of the scope of the work before us and willingness to look bigger and broader in this field will continue to bring forward compassionate and articulate family members, consumers and others. I hope we will pull forward together. This was one of the wishes expressed in a recent survey of local affiliates. When the board sees that a funding stream to ensure state office staffing is in place, such a grant program will be one of the next steps. Until that time, whatever individual members and local affiliates can do to understand and assist in funding the state organization will be appreciated.
