In favor of petition
 

I've seen first hand the pain it creates for families that live in an area with a shortage of physical therapy support. It is devastating to the patients and families. If you can put yourself in our shoes, you will see why creative solutions like this have a history of bettering communities.

Additionally the Virginia Community Service Board has been in favor of more change. The CSB is responsible for assuring, with resources, the delivery of community-based mental health, developmental, and substance abuse services to individuals with mental health or substance use disorders, intellectual disability, or co-occuring disorders. This group is more in touch with individual risk than the legislators, and is not burdened with the responsibility of public scrutiny regarding what bills they propose and how they vote on them.
