    YES! YES! YES! Please show respect and financial support to this crucial city agency that often times serves the "forgotten" population in DC that depends on the library every day to gain free access to literature/media/technology/skills training/entertainment venues/public-civic forums, etc. PLEASE increase DCPL's budget to ensure that it not only survives, but thrives in its continual endeavors to evolve and improve its ability to meet the needs of its vast amount of patrons and staff!

    I concur. Transitional living with counseling and work/volunteer opportunities for homeless and/or adjudicated youth (or those at-risk) would help ensure greater stability, less recidivism, and a means for developing a positive work ethic and practical employment experience (instead of resorting to criminal activity). Ideally these young people, with the right opportunities, would be able to move beyond the stigma and challenges of their less than ideal situation to gain greater independence, responsibility, earn an honest wage and move into more permanent, affordable housing as they transition into adulthood.
