We as staff are all very concerned for our clients and thier well being and our jobs as well. Some of these people that I care for have aging parents or no families at all to look out for them. Where are they sppose to go if this budget does not pass? I have worked for MOSAIC for 6yrs and we are like a little family. The clients are very attatched to most of the staff and dont deal with change very well and we all would be very hart broken to see them be misplaced because the govenor wants more of out money.. my impression is its his way or the highway..there are no winners here...
