She talks about efforts to provide undocumented children and education and health services. The centers for Immigration Studies hosted this hourlong event. Good morning, and my name is mark corcoran, we wanted to host an event that puts some context and some real life numbers and real life acts on to the fallout of what were seeing and have been seeing now u for a while in the border surge of Central Americans, especially coming across south texas. And what what we have seen really bears out the observation a that every state is now
Patience, all things are difficult before they become easy. Despite the intense efforts of negotiators from seven countries, and the european union, we are still in that difficult stage. We must use the remaining time wisely, and with a sense of urgency and purpose. In closing, let me affirm that the United States and its partners are prepared to take advantage of this historic opportunity to resolve our concerns regarding Irans Nuclear program. We hope the leaders in tehran will agree to the steps necessary to assure the world that this program will be exclusively peaceful, and thereby end irans economic and diplomatic isolation, and improve further the lives of their people. If that does not happen, the responsibility will be seen by all to rest with iran. We encourage iran to make the right choice. Meanwhile, we remain steadfast in our determination to take the steps necessary for americas security and for peace across the globe. We hope iran will make the right choice. We are ready
Honor. For the record, my name is nick wilcox, i live in penn valley in california here with my wife amanda who because of the crowded conditions is in the overflow room, shes also put in a speaker card and would like to reserve the right to speak at the end if she deems that necessary. I would like to thank supervisor farrell and mayor lee for your steadfast support of lauras law. As supervisor farrell said, amanda and i are the parents of laura wilcox, laura when she was 19 in 2001 died in a rampage shooting while she was trying to help people with severe Mental Illness. She was working at the Behavioral Mental Health clinic, i man named scott thorpe came in and shot her pointblank 4 times and she died instantly. Since that time we have come to realize, actually we came to realize rather early on in the process, that there are significant gaps in the Mental Health services system. We became involved with assembly mental Helen Thompson in ab 1421 which was eventually signed by the gov
It does require the courts involvement, which for some individuals can be a traumatic thing. Overall it provides crucial treatment for patients whose Mental Illness itself prevents them from recognizing that they in fact need treatment and will be able to benefit from it. I want to underscore that in the department of Public Health there are over 30,000 individuals each year who are treated in a voluntary way. The overwhelming majority of individuals who receive treatment do so in a completely voluntary way. These services that are provided by the department of Public Health will be accessible to this small population of individuals who are at very great risk for harm coming to them in the community. Its an effort to provide treatment that can potentially allow them to live a more satisfying and recoveryoriented life. So overall i want to emphasize that this is an important option for patients, for families and for our community and provides necessary treatment to an Important Group of
