Willowbend RTC, as it is known, provides a safe home and treatment for children who have been victims of abuse. According to Willowbend Administrator Shane Harrold: "These are kids that have been through the worst experiences you could go through next to being killed." You would think that our community would be proud that we had a program like the one offered by Willowbend.

Shari Pulliam, who works for the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, has indicated that the state needs an expanded Willowbend facility.

Texas Democratic Convention SD1

Gregg County started out last year with high hopes of filling the 29 delegate seats we had available. With momentum in our favor, and local interest growing daily, we had 25 sign up at the County Convention for Ft Worth. Unfortunately, we lost all but 8 because of a failed reservation system that left everyone wondering if they had a room until the last minute. It was very sad.
