St. David’s went to the Capitol! Yesterday, our CEO Julie Sjordal continued to build bipartisan support while testifying before the Minnesota House Capital Investment Committee and shared our bonding request, necessary to expand access to care for thousands more children and families! We are grateful to the chief authors of this bill, Representative @Katie Jones and Senator Scott Dibble and to our growing list of supporters, including Representative Bernie Perryman, for standing alongside our most vulnerable neighbors, and helping build the infrastructure that will ensure every child succeeds. And we loved to hear Representative @Andrew Myers' enthusiasm for the important work that continues every day at our Minnetonka location! This investment would allow St. David’s to renovate and expand our critical Early Childhood Assessment, Intervention, and Training Center—right in the heart of downtown Minneapolis— at a time when the crisis in children’s development and mental health continues to deepen across Minnesota. As the bill moves through the legislative process, we’ll keep you, the friends of St. David’s Center, connected with this exciting process, and with ways you can help. Because expanding access to critical services takes all of us! You can replay yesterday's hearing on the MN House YouTube Channel: https://ow.ly/HyUH50VpeGJ
