Cutting Healthcare Budgets & Public Safety in Idaho with Ben Fuhriman
Ben Fuhriman is an Idaho State Representative and came in to talk about funding cuts that have been made to programs in Health and Welfare, including some made to the ACT program. The ACT program provided in-home services to people with high levels of mental illness, including schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder, which helped them stay medicated, functional, and in their homes. That is no longer the case for many.
