November 9, 2010
If a bill passes Wednesday night at the Government of the Student Body meeting, $144,781 will be allocated toward the Story County Analysis of Social Services Evaluation Team.
GSB hopes to focus on some main priorities for the money, such as programs and services that promote personal safety, with regards to violence and abuse and child care services.
They would put a specific emphasis on infant and toddler care, substance abuse prevention and treatment, both group and individual care, programs and services that go toward domestic violence and rape, legal services that are not provided by Student Legal Services, services that enhance understanding of the community through service, and other services that provide both a direct and indirect benefit to students.
