The area likely to be most impacted by a reduction in funding would be our <br />ability to respond to all of the requests for support services to the schools. We would continue to <br />provide counselling and support to any child but would be challenged in our ability to take those <br />services to the children; instead the parents /guardians would bear some of the burden of getting <br />their children to the site where our services are offered. We would continue to seek funding <br />from other sources to ensure our ability to reach children where they are and not increase the <br />burden of seeking care during a time when families lives are in disarray due to the death of a <br />significant fanuly member. <br />
