What a nice invitation.
This is an official invitation to help educate government workers on how to supply polygamists with information to help them apply for, and receive taxpayer assistance, without fear of being arrested for breaking Federal Laws against polygamy.
I wonder if any of the leadership in Texas CPS, DFPS, DES, or Health and Human Services have plans to either take advice from the experts listed here, or to actually send attendees to this "culturally guided, balanced approach to Service Provision" conference?
It sounds quite clinically fascinating after all, since it is designed for: "Building Bridges Not Barriers" and promises to teach us "What Social Workers Should Know".
According to the invitation, all our Utah pro-polygamy favorites will be attending, including Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff, specifically speaking on the subject of
"Making it Safe for Fundamentalists to Receive Social Services".
"Making it Safe for Fundamentalists to Receive Social Services".
One has to wonder, now that all the children were sent back even though abuses were identified, if those in charge of the system, which is supposed to protect Texas children, are instead getting in bed with a culture that tolerates and exacerbates the abuse of their human and constitutional rights.
Somebody should ask our governor if he is still sure our child protection system is being led by the right people, for Texas.
On the other hand, I would sure love to see some of the West Texas C.A.S.A. folk I know go to stare these people down through the whole thing, too, lmao!
