Intervieweing Tonya

I've been so interested in the economic crisis lately, I've been asking just about everyone what they think, and what they've seen. I don't remember everything that Tonya told me this time, but I know that it's sitting in the back of my mind waiting to be called out.

Human services has been hit pretty hard, and for what they do, it's the wrong place to be depleted of resources. more people need help, more severe mental health problems seem to be popping up, and there are less caseworkers employed to help them. Programs are getting cut. People are left to flounder without help.
