Funding Bill for Social Service May Provide Hope for HRC

Could a funding bill for social service agencies in Illinois be enough for the DeWitt County Human Resource Center?

 

A local lawmaker thinks so.

 

Last week, HRC in DeWitt County announced their closure, citing a lack of funding from the state. According to State Representative Bill Mitchell, a bill sits on the desk of the Governor to fund social service agencies in Illinois.

 

 

Rep. Mitchell says there's little he can say that would make folks at HRC feel better because they have gone above and beyond what they could do to keep their doors open.

 

 

 

Rep. Mitchell says the problem with the state of Illinois is they have no priorities and wants to see the General Assembly start to set some priorities.
