i feel like this isn't necessarily uplifting. What local social programs will inevitably see cuts from this?

WHAT WE DO

  • Develop goals and action steps which are likely to achieve the intended result of the plan
  • Organize and actively case manage service plans
  • Work with communities, agencies and other department programs to develop or assist in the stabilization of assets and resources
  • Provide assistance to needy families so that children may be cared for in their own home or in the homes of relatives.

Only one of these things sounds even vaguely like a service that benefits the needy. The rest of it is a word salad. I live right next door to Idaho and am very familiar with how they run their state. There's a reason why it's the home of cult leaders, white supremacists, and the sovereign citizen types.
