Testimony: ‘You guys are my only hope’

Jack Hansen of Boise, a young man with disabilities, told JFAC, “I’ve been in two group homes and I know for a fact that it’s not very fun.” He said, “You guys are my only hope. I live in a certified family home right now. … If you make these cuts, I swear you’ll be making a huge mistake.” A burst of applause followed the young man’s final comment; JFAC co-chair Dean Cameron, R-Rupert, quieted the audience.
