KCRG : Mentally-Ill Inmates Fill Black Hawk County Jail | KCRG-TV9 | Cedar Rapids, Iowa News, Sports, and W

Unfortunately, this is the way the system works. There is no place for the mentally ill, because there's no money to be made. The people who are severely mentally ill can't hold down a job, and can't get health insurance. So what's a facility to do, but to shut down from lack of funding? It's a very sad situation all around.

If you mean our faith in our city government? Then yes. But it died a long time ago.

Unfortunately, the staff there (at YB) don't have the skills to be an engineer.

Actually, half the work is already IN India. But more'll go there. Good ole Joe Walsh (CEO) knows what he's doing!

Our family goes out to eat quite often. That being said, agreeing with another commenter above, I'd like to see a list of locally owned restaurants, and where they're located at.

I know they're from Dyersville. As for sending them a card, I'd say send it to Covenant Hospital. If you feel like giving a donation, I read in an article http://www.thonline.com/article.cfm?id=301927 that you can donate money to Community Savings Bank branches. Google the phone number for a branch and ask for details.
