One of the more difficult subjects to discuss has to do with the most effective approach to dealing with the struggling individuals and families in our society. It has long been held that churches/synagogues should be the primary source of support, however, on the whole there are very limited resources found in that venue. The role of government is essential as is the role of the religious community. I open the discussion for some constructive feedback and to help us grapple with these very significant issues.
