The information flow/support for immigrants and people with less economic means is not a <br /> cohesive system, leaving them unaware of the supports that do exist. My years working in the school system <br /> also exposed weak to non-existent support for mental health issues. This area of need seems to have <br /> increased without a plan for how to obtain services, or enough well planned effective services. As we see <br /> throughout this country our inability to effectively address these needs has substantial costs to our society. We <br /> can often identify children needing help at a young age, but without resources there is little we can do to truly <br /> help. My knowledge of the holes that exist and ideas of how we can help support these children and their <br /> families is why I wish to be on the CAC. <br /> If you have printed this application, please send to: <br /> King Jones <br /> Cardinal Innovations Healthcare <br /> 550 South Caldwell Street, Suite 1500 <br /> Charlotte, NC 28202 <br /> • <br /> Page 2 of 2 • • <br /> rev. 20190926 cardinalinnovations.org <br />
