House Education Administration- March 3, 2021
A
A
A
Let's
go
ahead
and
begin
the
full
committee
of
education,
administration
members.
We
have
a
couple
of
presentations
today
which
I'll
get
to
in
a
minute.
When
I
have
two
bills,
I
will
take
the
bills
first,
because
I
believe
we
can
knock
those
out
in
short
or
go
to
our
presentations.
We've
got
a
couple
of
great
presentations
that
you'll
be
excited
to
hear
before
we
begin,
though,
madam
clerk,
would
you
call
the
role.
B
A
C
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
and
committee
president
law
established
the
tennessee
support,
training,
renewing
opportunity
for
national
guard
members
known
as
the
strong
act,
and
it
provides
tuition
reimbursement
for
undergraduate
work,
120
hours,
semester
hours.
This
bill
makes
changes
as
follows:
it
adds
tcats
and
tbr
institutions
as
part
of
the
program,
so
they're
be
reimbursed
at
24
semester
hours.
C
C
C
A
You
represent
moon
members.
If
you
all
remember
last
year,
we
passed
this
through
the
house
with
flying.
Colors
didn't
make
it
through
the
senate
due
to
the
pandemic,
but
I
appreciate
it
moon
bringing
this
back
with
the
this
year.
One
thing
I
found
out
over
the
course
of
last
year
in
studying
this
bill
is
this
really
helps
our
tennessee
air
national
guard
recruit
and
retain
guard
members
which
is
very,
very
important
to
our
national
guard,
our
national,
our
state
military
and
represent
moon.
C
Well,
I'll
be
glad
to
we
have
chief
warrant
officer,
scarlett
bernay,
she's,
the
ess
officer
and
her
predecessor,
whose
husband's
with
us
colonel
deal,
his
wife
mary
deal
worked
as
the
ss
to
pass
the
original
legislation
four
years
ago,
and
we
have
nick
atwood
with
the
department
of
military
with
us
today.
Our
liaison
and
nick
atwood
is
also
a
blackhawk
pilot,
and
you
know
air
guard.
C
If
you
remember
a
year
ago,
we
had
the
tornado,
they
were
activated,
then
we
had
the
pandemic
and
they
traveled
across
the
state
and
surveyed
sites
for
for
coveted
both
for
for
triage
and
for
treatment.
Then
we
had
civil
unrest
and
they
were
called
out,
but
you
don't
know
about
people
like
mr
natwood
who
edward
who
goes
into
the
smokies.
C
His
counterparts
and
lifts
people
out,
maintain
a
hover
and
up
down
and
down
drafts
and
pulls
people
out
that
are
injured
in
flies
of
memorial,
hospital
or
university
of
tennessee
hospital
in
knoxville.
You
don't
hear
about
them
that
much,
but
they
are
so
necessary
to
our
community
in
the
maryland
black
county
knoxville
area.
But
thank
you,
mr
chairman,.
A
C
This
is
a
retention
tool
we
have,
we
have
young
captains,
one
of
them
just
came
back
from
kosovo
who,
who
lives
spent
nine
months
in
kosovo,
deployed
there
as
part
of
our
agreement
through
the
u.n
and
he's
a
young
captain.
This
will
provide
him
the
master's
degree
to
become
a
lieutenant,
colonel
and
colonel.
We
need
to
keep
those
people
they're,
talented
people.
We
need
to
keep
them.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
of
our.
A
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Other
comments,
questions
questions
been
called
for.
Any
objection
to
the
bill
to
the
question
here
is
none
all
those
in
favor
of
moving
house
bill,
83
out
of
finance
ways
of
means,
indicate
saying
aye
opposed
the
eyes.
Have
it
moves
out.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Thank
you,
representative
moon.
Thank
you.
Guest
appreciate
that
chief,
bernier
you're
gonna
take
care
of
business.
Now.
Okay,
hear
this,
you
may
need
to
have
a
checkup
all
right.
The
second
bill
actually
is
mine,
so
I'm
gonna
pass
the
gavel
to
vice
chair.
B
A
A
The
bill
allows
for
the
most
qualified
individuals
to
enter
the
selection
process
without
fear
of
a
negative
outcome
with
their
current
employer
if
they
are
not
selected.
So
we
want
to
get
the
best
candidates
and
sometimes,
if
you
make
it
public
too
soon,
then
they
had
to
take
their
name
off
the
list.
So
that's
what
we're
doing
we're
adding
chancellors
and
it's
a
process
that
we
already
have
in
place
for
selecting
our
presidents
questions.
A
Okay,
members
really
want
to
keep
everybody
here
for
a
while.
We've
got,
we've
got
a
a
couple
great
presentations,
one
is
from
commissioner
parker
department
of
corrections,
as
we've
talked
a
lot
about
in
our
in
our
education
that
a
child
needs
to
be
in
reading
by
third
grade
because
they're
on
their
life,
it's
pretty
crucial.
A
If,
if
they
do
not
get
a
proper
education,
so
commission
parker,
could
you
come
on
up
and
while
you're
getting
settled
the
second
one
feeds
into
this
we've
got
a
presentation
called
standing
the
gap,
it's
a
great
drug
awareness
program
for
our
children,
mr
dan
burlock
and
his
wife.
Hazel
are
here,
and
they
actually
are
from
jerry
sexton's
and
senator
nicely's
districts
and
we're
gonna.
Let
them
present
just
some
fascinating
materials.
Commissioner
parker
welcome.
Thank
you
all
for
being
here.
You're
recognized.
E
Thank
you,
mr
chair
and
and
members
for
having
us
today
to
give
us
the
opportunity
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
correctional
education
in
our
special
school
district
within
the
tennessee
department
of
corrections
with
me
today
is
miss
vicki
freeman.
She
is
the
assistant
commissioner
of
rehabilitative
services
for
the
department
of
corrections.
E
Vicki
supervises
all
educational
activities,
rehabilitation,
programs,
drug
and
alcohol
programs,
she's
one
that
really
has
her
finger
on
the
pulse
of
the
department.
When
you
look
at
our
mission
of
providing
rehabilitation
programs
for
the
people
under
our
custody,
so
I
want
to
thank
her
publicly
for
what
she
does.
She
does
a
fantastic
job,
our
first
slide
as
a
special
school
district,
approved
by
the
tennessee
department
of
education.
E
We
have
15
schools
and
a
total
of
229
educators
consisting
of
principals
school
teachers,
career
technology,
vocational
instructors,
and
I
want
to
talk
just
a
little
bit
about
our
process
of
when
we
receive
individuals
into
our
custody
upon
receipt
at
a
diagnostic
center
at
a
tdoc
facility
and
again
these
are
at
bletsoh
correctional
complex
in
east
tennessee
is
our
male
diagnostic
center
and
the
deborah
johnson
rehabilitation
center.
Here
in
nashville
is
our
rehabilitation
center
for
females.
E
There's
a
battery
of
tests,
that's
conducted
there
and
one
of
those
tests,
as
most
of
you
know,
for
anyone
who
does
not
cannot,
we
cannot
verify
a
high
school
diploma
or
education.
They.
We
perform
a
tape
test
to
make
a
determination
at
what
level
an
individual
may
be
at
from
an
educational
standpoint.
E
Now,
there's
a
few
exceptions
to
that
for
individuals
that
our
policy
sets
a
limit
somewhere
around
the
age
of
60
65,
but
we
try
to
use
good
discretion
on
someone
who
may
be.
That
makes
a
point
makes
a
convincing
argument
that
they're
too
old
to
go
to
school.
They
did
not
graduate
from
high
school
but
they're
interested
in
some
other
type
of
learning.
E
We
try
to
make
use
good
discretion
in
making
those
decisions
about
who
goes
to
school
and
who
does
not,
but
I
can
tell
you
for
the
majority
the
biggest
majority
of
the
people,
who
we
see
young
people
that
come
into
the
system.
They
all
are
required
to
attend
educational
services
and
we
recognize
the
the
impact
of
basic
education
that
it
has
on
an
individual's
success
both
inside
the
facility
as
well
as
certainly
when
we
release
those
individuals
back
into
the
community.
E
E
You
hear
me
often
talk
about
the
hard
work
of
correctional
officers
and
I,
but
as
a
warden,
I
would
go
into
our
education
buildings
and
see
with
a
classroom
of
20
to
30
students
there,
and
it's
not
always
you
know
a
classroom
of
people
who
are
there
ready
to
learn
willing
to
learn.
You
know
it
takes
a
lot
of
motivation.
It
takes
a
lot
of
of
painstaking
effort
really
to
get
people
motivated,
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
proud
of
the
work
they
do
again.
E
Each
and
every
day,
in
our
facilities
across
the
state
in
tdoc,
the
basic
education
offers
the
the
access
to
education.
We
have
a
special
education,
that's
that's
offered
at
northwest
correctional
complex,
as
well
as
deborah
johnson
rehabilitation
center
for
special
education,
education
services
for
students
with
disabilities.
We
have
those
title,
one
programs
within
the
department
of
corrections,
and
we
also
have
english
as
a
second
language.
For
those
people
who
may
not
speak
fluent
english,
we
have
programs
to
provide
services
for
those
individuals.
E
E
I
was
attending
college
at
dyersburg
state
university
and
there
was
a
class
I
needed
for
my
degree
that
at
that
time
we
had
pell
grants
still
in
place
and
that
we
were
we
were
providing
those,
and
I
took
a
class
on
a
wednesday
night
with
with
the
participants
at
the
facility
that
I
needed.
For
my
degree-
and
I
saw
personally
the
the
changes
in
some
of
these
people
that
sat
in
a
class
and
and
participated
in
higher
education
that
it
changed
their
mindset,
it
changed.
E
I
think
it
changed
the
way
they
looked
at
themselves,
and
it
also,
I
think,
made
a
difference,
a
positive
difference
when
they
are
released
back
in
into
the
community.
At
this
time.
I'd
like
to
please
the
chairman
committee,
I'd
like
to
introduce
vicki
freeman
again,
who
is
our
assistant
commissioner
of
rehab
services,
who
can
really
dig
in
the
details
and
give
you
some
specific
information
about
our
programs
across
the
state.
A
F
F
The
tape
testing
shows,
then
this
is
our
most
current.
Data
for
fy21
shows
that
females
have
an
average
of
a
fifth
grade
level
for
math
language
and
reading,
and
that
our
male
offenders
coming
in
have
an
average
of
second
grade
level.
When
we
look
specifically
at
reading
our
females
still
test
out
at
fifth
grade
level,
but
our
males
test
out
at
first
grade
level,
that's
really
impactful
to
our
population
and
the
interventions
that
we
must
provide
to
ensure
that
they
get
an
education.
F
A
B
Thank
you.
I
had
one
quick
follow-up
question
on
that
as
well
in
in
your
test,
I
mean
in
your
diagnostic
test:
do
you
have
any
statistics
on
how
many
of
those
are
might
be?
Not
have
a
learning
disability?
Do
you
have
any?
Would
you
have
any
kind
of
grasp
on
on
how
many
might
have
something
like
that.
B
B
B
F
F
F
F
Some
of
the
interventions
that
we
were
able
to
to
achieve
with
the
governor's
education,
reinvestment
and
legislatures
approval,
which
we
are
greatly
appreciative
of,
we
have
the
hiset
academy,
which
is
personalized
learning
plan
for
each
student
and
it
tracks
the
progress
as
they
progress.
Through
the
lesson
plan,
we
were
able
to
get
reading
horizons
which
actually
intervenes
from
that
first
to
third
grade
level
for
reading
and
spelling,
and
then
let's
go
learn
which
is
me
reading
and
math
diagnostics
and
provides
interventions
there.
F
We
were
also
able
to
provide
the
classroom
technology
through
that
funding
and
put
over
300
computers
in
the
classrooms
to
support
these
interventions.
Once
we
get
an
offender
through
the
hiset
they're
able
to
go
on
to
cte
career
and
technical
education
programs,
tdc
authors
offers
16
career,
technical
and
educational
vocational
programs.
We
also
offer
two
career
preparedness
programs.
F
F
Tennessee
college
replied
technology.
We
offer
those
courses
in
basic
construction
technology,
computer
information,
technology,
welding,
industrial
electricity
and
farming
operations.
We
have
13
tcap
programs,
201
students
enrolled
in
those
and
those
those
are
on
clock
hours.
So
it
takes
several
hundred
o'clock
hours
over
900
to
complete
those
programs
and
we
have
12
graduates
to
date.
F
E
Just
to
comment
on
that,
and
I
the
tcats
in
the
educational
programs
within
the
department,
I
always
want
to
make
a
point
that,
as
we
saw
schools
close
in
some
areas
and
we
saw
a
tick
back
in
educational
services
over
the
summer
dealing
with
the
pandemic,
the
tennessee
department
of
corrections.
We
maintain
those
services
in
our
school
systems
across
the
state.
E
I
guess
somewhat
apprehensive
about
the
new
instructors
coming
in
that
had
been
accustomed
to
teaching
outside
the
correctional
environment
coming
into
the
correctional
environment
teaching-
and
I
can
tell
you,
mr
chairman
committee-
they
have
not
missed
the
beat-
they
have
been
on
board
every
day
with
us
and
do
just
doing
a
great
job
and
vicki
may
speak
to
this.
But
it's
it's
interesting
and
we
did
in
some
cases
for
our
academic
classes.
E
It
may
have
done
this
for
vocational,
I'm
not
sure,
but
we
scaled
back
a
little
bit
on
the
numbers
of
people
within
the
classroom
itself,
and
we
saw
some
pretty
positive
results
because
of
that,
and
that
may
be
a
that,
may
be
a
lesson
learned
that
we
want
to
take
forward
as
we
look
at
pass
rates
for
exams
and
things
like.
That
is
how
many
people
we
have
in
the
class,
but
just
wanted
to
say
that
most
proud
of
the
people
who
provide
those
services
of
teachers
and
again,
question.
B
B
B
F
H
H
A
A
Much
one
more
question
for
me
and
we'll
also
have
some
more
of
our
committee,
want
to
ask
our
next
presentation,
which
fits
so
well
in
this,
and
it's
fascinating
the
members
are
going
to
enjoy.
This
is
addiction
of
our
young
people.
You
have
data
on
how
the
the
addiction
of
our
young
people
in
our
society
today
how
that's
affecting
dlc.
F
About
50
of
our
population,
commissioner,
if
I
may
has
a
substance,
use
issue
and
again,
if
you're
in
a
classroom,
you're
not
going
to
learn.
If
you
have
a
mental
health
issue
or
substance
use
issue,
that's
not
being
addressed
so
having
a
holistic
approach
and
addressing
all
of
those
really
really
gets
the
intervention
level
that's
needed.
I
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
thank
you,
commissioner,
parker
and
and
all
of
your
staff,
I'm
very
passionate
about
what
we
can
do
when
when
we
have
those
who
are
incarcerated
and
that
we
try
to
rehabilitate
them
so
that
they
are
able
to
go
out
and
and
live
a
life
when
they
get
out.
So
one
of
my
questions
was
is,
do
you
all
use
the
strong
r
to
test
for
the
education
level,
or
do
you
use
a
separate
test?
I
F
A
E
G
First
of
all,
thank
you
both
for
coming
here.
You
are
dealing
with
the
problem
on
the
back
end,
what
we're
trying
to
do
here
and
and
if
you've
been
following
along
most
recently
with
what
the
governor's
had
in
the
special
session,
we
are
trying
everything
we
can
to
fix
it
on
the
front
end
and
with
the
mental
health
issues
and
dyslexia,
addressing
that
as
early
as
we
can
in
education
to
make
sure
that
those
students
get
the
help
that
they
need.
So
they
can
be
successful.
G
Students
hoping
that
we
can
have
a
hundred
percent
of
our
students,
read
and
be
able
to
do
math
on
grade
level
as
they
proceed
through,
so
that
when
they
do
graduate
and
they
turn
18,
they
have
the
ability
to
make
good
decisions
for
themselves
to,
hopefully,
in
my
opinion,
put
you
out
of
business,
yes
put
you
out
of
business.
So,
in
your
opinion,
the
more
we
can
do
on
the
front
end
is
better
on
the
to
alleviate
the
issues
on
the
back
end
on
the
right
path.
Here.
Absolutely!
G
A
E
Commissioner,
I
agree
100
and
I
would
also
tell
you
invite,
as
I
do
any
committee
anytime.
Mr
chairman,
I
know
you've
been
to
several
of
our
facilities
and
you've
walked
in
the
classrooms
and
you've
seen
the
schools.
I
would
invite
anybody
on
this
committee
at
any
time
to
reach
out
to
us
we'll
set
up
we'll
set
a
time
and
a
date
to
go
to
whatever
facility.
E
H
F
Another
teacher
may
have
three
through
sixth
grade
level
kind
of
like
when
I
was
a
child
in
school
and
fifth
and
sixth
grade
level
was
combined,
but
we
do
work
in
small
groups
and
work
to
that
individual
need
and
that's
how
we
get
them
there
and
it
may
take
years.
This
isn't
something
that's
going
to
happen
overnight.
It
takes
years
to
get
them
where
they
need
to
be.
H
A
D
Yeah,
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
I'm
sorry
I
didn't
know
you
weren't
doing
the
presentation,
but
I
appreciate
the
focus
on
this.
You
know
punishment,
deterrence
and
rehabilitation.
Being
the
three
aims
of
the
penal
system
are
traditionally
viewed
that
way.
So
often
rehabilitation
gets
left
out.
I
think
we
see
that
more
often
in
privatized
prisons
than
we
do
in
the
state-run
facilities.
But
my
question
is
I
you
know
you
talk
about
the
tcat
partnerships
and
things
like
that
and
those
are
only
located
in
certain
places
throughout
the
state.
D
F
We
do
so
we
have
a
tcat
in
nine
of
our
facilities,
the
only
ones
we
don't
have,
one
is
that
mark
lateral
transition
center
and
that's
because
they
can
actually
go
out
to
school.
It's
a
transition
center
and
then
debary
special
needs
because
of
the
level
of
mental
health
and
health
care
there.
We
do
not
have
a
tcat
there,
so
t-cat's
available
in
nine
of
our
11
tdoc
prisons.
F
D
Okay
and
then
so
that
leaves
me
again,
you
you
bring
up
debary,
which
is
a
an
incredible
facility
that
serves
a
very
vital
need.
I
think
we
should
probably
have
several
debary
facilities
in
our
system,
given
its
capacity,
and
that
takes
me
back
to
the
mental
health
screening.
I
know
the
inmates
go
through.
E
Yes-
and
we
have,
we
have
individuals,
mental
health
professionals
at
our
diagnostic
centers
that
conducts
these
screenings.
These
screenings
are
conducted
by
the
appropriate
people
with
the
appropriate
qualifications
to
conduct
those
screenings
at
our
intake
facilities
and
also
at
any
facility
that,
where
there
is
a
mental
health
assessment
and
diagnosis
conducted,
we
have
a
psychiatrist
and
mid-level
mental
health
professionals
on
site
that
perform
these
diagnostic
tests.
D
And,
and
can
you
speak
to-
and
I
understand
if
you
can't,
but
can
you
speak
to
the
processes
at
core
civic
institution,
because
I
know
that
their
mental
health
professionals
are
capped
at
the
facility?
Hours
are
capped
per
week
and
the
level
of
mental
health
professional
at
that
facility
and
then
the
amount
of
quality
of
the
mental
health
care
intake
at
those
facilities.
Can
you
speak
to
them
at
all.
E
So
one
specifically
talking
about
and
I'm
going
to
try
to
answer
your
question
then
I
may
have
to
get
vicky
to
follow
up
on
some
of
this,
but
as
far
as
intake
alone,
there's
no
intake
at
the
core
civics.
All
the
intake
diagnostic
testing
is
done
at
a
tdoc
facility,
so
we
cover
that
so
there's
no
inmate
that
goes
directly
from
a
jail
into
a
core
civic
facility.
E
In
regards
to
mental
health
diagnosis
that
is
conducted
as
a
follow-up
for
a
mental
health
person
with
a
mental
illness.
That's
been
assessed
and
determined,
there's
follow-up,
mental
health
assessments
that
have
to
be
done
by
our
policy.
I
would
reference
that
to
vicki,
but
also
individuals
who
may
be
in
restricted
housing
by
aca
standards
are
required
to
have
mental
health
diagnosis
and
those
diagnoses
are
required
to
be
conducted
by
a
mental
health
professional
with
the
right
licensure
to
conduct
those
those
assessments
and
vicky.
Do
you
have
anything
to
add
to
that?
Just.
F
That
both
health
and
mental
health
services
are
available
24
hours
a
day
seven
days
a
week.
There
always
has
to
be
at
least
someone
on
call
for
mental
health
services.
So
if
there
is
a
mental
health
crisis
or
a
mental
health
issue,
they
have
to
be
seen
and
mental
health
services
are
free
for
offenders
because
they
did
not
want
to
put
a
barrier
up
saying
you
have
to
pay
for
mental
health
services
and
they've
always
been
free.
D
E
The
department
of
education
requires,
as
far
as
transferring
those
individuals
out
if
they
give
you
an
example.
If
the
strong
r
the
risk
needs
assessment
made
a
determination
that
an
individual
needed-
let's
say
a
vocational
program,
and
there
was
not
a
vocational
program
there
at
that
facility,
then
the
process
would
be
that
that
inmate
would
be
flagged
for
an
open
space
at
a
facility
where
that
vocational
program
was
available.
D
A
F
You,
mr
chair,
so
I'd
like
to
talk
about
higher
education,
enterprise
partnerships
that
we
have.
I
know
the
question
was
asked
about
other
higher
education
programs.
We
have.
We
have
over
200
students
enrolled
in
credit,
bearing
college
programs
and
those
partnerships
are
with
state
community
colleges.
Private
colleges
such
as
lipscomb,
here
in
nashville
and
rhodes
in
memphis,
the
tennessee
higher
education
initiative,
which
partners
with
the
community
colleges
of
nashville
state,
dyersburg,
state
and
roane
state
we
partner
with
the
tennessee
board
of
regents
and
the
tennessee
higher
education
commission.
F
F
To
date,
we
have
to
see
higher
education
initiative
in
the
community
colleges,
20
associates
degrees
conferred
through
lipscomb
university
and
10
bachelor's
degrees
conferred
through
lipscomb.
Also,
it
takes
about
seven
years
to
complete
an
associate's
degree
program
through
lipscomb
university.
With
the
tbr
initiative.
We
are
trying
to
fast
track
that
getting
more
college
courses
in
in
this
semester
having
at
least
two
taken
instead
of
one
so
that
we
can
cut
that
time
in.
F
B
Commissioner,
thank
you
for
being
here.
I
think
back
up
real
quick,
I'm
not
sure
if
I
misunderstood
you,
but
you
mentioned
the
different
facilities
across
the
state.
You
specifically
said
something
about
the
more
collateral
center
that
was
not
happening
there.
Can
you
did
I
misunderstand
you,
or
can
you
elaborate
with
that.
F
F
F
B
E
Very
meaningful
jobs
in
the
community
and
part
of
that
program
is
the
responsibility.
They
have
to
pay
back
fines
and
fees
to
pay
any
unpaid
child
support,
and
we
require
them
to
save
dollars.
We
require
them
to
have
savings
where
so,
when
they
are
released,
they
have
the
resources
necessary
the
job,
skills
and
also
meaningful
employment
to
be
successful,
and
if
that
individual
makes
a
choice
to
go
to
college
and
say
you
know,
I
want
to
get
an
associate's
degree.
I
we
support
that
also.
So
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
that
commissioner.
F
If
I
may
sure,
I'm
I'm
sorry,
mr
chair-
and
these
are
the
people,
you
see
utilizing
the
degrees
that
they've
earned
such
as
tcat
going
out
and
getting
jobs
with
the
electric
company
earning
a
very
good
livable
wage,
so
that
they
can
support
their
family
not
only
during
their
incarceration.
But
when
they're
released
the
construction
classes
that
we
offer
through
dcat
they're
utilizing
the
education
that
they
already
received.
B
B
F
G
Well,
I
mean
we,
we
have
to
make
sure
that
they
know,
because
the
end
results
as
we're
seeing
here
are
not
good
right.
I
think
we've
really
got
to
double
down
on
that
commitment
to
make
sure
that
our
kids
can
read
and
write
by
the
time
they
leave
third
grade.
I
believe
the
governor
put
something
in
the
in
his
budget
this
year
about
increasing
the
pay
to
our
county
systems
to
help
them
with
anti-recidivism
programs.
You
want
to
talk
about
that
at
all.
E
Yeah,
there's
as
we
in
the
department
of
corrections,
look
at
a
risk-based
model
and
when
I
say
a
risk-based
model,
it's
individualized
for
that
particular
individual
that
we
have
in
custody
to
determine
the
risk
to
recidivate
and
what
are
those
factors
that
we
know
that
needs
to
be
attached
and
addressed
to
reduce
that
risk,
and
it
could
be
anything
from
a
substance
use
issue
which
is
what
we
call
a
criminogenic
factor.
It's
a
dynamic
factor,
also
a
mental
health
issue
or
a
lack
of
pro-social
support
or
anti-personality
disorder.
E
Whatever
the
case
may
be,
or
it
could
be
simply
or
a,
they
need
a
technical
trade
to
help
them
find
a
meaningful
job
that
risk
and
needs
association.
What
programs
this
individual
go
in
goes
in
and
is
included
in,
and
the
programs
that
we
use
are
evidence-based
programs
we
have
seen-
and
we
know
that
the
locals.
We
need
to
push
that,
I
think,
out
to
the
locals
and
give
them
the
opportunity
to
be
engaged
in
using
evidence
breaks
programs
to
help
with
all
of
these
issues.
E
So
there's
money
out
there
for
locals
sheriffs
that
involve
that
engage
in
using
evidence-based
programs
that
are
priya
compliant
that
are
certified
through
the
tennessee
corrections
institute,
tci
board
and
pass
certification
program
to
commit
to
using
these
evidence-based
programs
to
help
with
educational
needs
or
to
help
with
substance
use
issues.
Things
like
that
that
we
know
reduces
recidivism
again
when
you
look
at
the
numbers,
recidivism
numbers
across
the
state
and
you
compare
groups
and-
and
we
see
that
need
there,
where
you
need
to
be
by
a
long
shot
in
with
the
state
doc.
A
Commissioner,
ms
friedman,
thank
you
so
very
much
giving
you
all
his
time
come
in
and
share
this
with
us
members.
I'd
like
to
encourage
you
to
take
advantage
of
visitation
with
the
commissioner
when
he's
in
your
area
and
so
much
our
children
are
under
attack,
and
this
is
what
this
education
committee
is.
All
about
is
trying
to
help
the
youth.
So
as
they
grow
to
be
adults,
they
can
function
in
the
world.
It's
tough
enough!
A
A
Children
are
under
attack,
we've
got
in
the
addiction
process
and
I
spent
about
30
minute
minutes
on
the
phone
with
mr
spurlock
the
other
day
and
just
asked
him
to
come
down
and
just
share
with
what
they're
doing
he's
got
some
great
information-
and
I
wanted
this
committee
to
to
be
aware
of
some
of
the
issues
that
our
young
people
are
are
facing
in
the
addiction
a
problem.
So,
mr
spurlock,
when
you
get
set
up
in
hazel,
his
wife
is
with
him.
A
J
I'm
more
accustomed
to
standing
up
in
the
dirt
and
briefing
so
if
I
stumble
around
a
little
bit,
pardon
that
we're
gonna,
we're
gonna,
give
it
a
good
run
here.
My
wife
hazel
and
I
wanna
just
tell
you
that
we
are
very,
very
pleased
about
to
come
over.
Here
we
come
over
from
eastern
tennessee
claiborne
county
eighth
district,
jerry
saxton's,
our
representative
and
frank
neista,
is
our
senator
so
we're
we're
here
to
bring
you
an
idea.
J
If
you
can't
work
in
three
states,
you
can't
work,
but
so
she
has
to
do
continual
education
and
if
you
know
anything
about
real
estate
every
year,
it's
a
continuing
education
myself.
I
spent
22
years
in
the
marine
corps,
all
active
duty
as
a
marine,
aviator
and
and
representative
white.
I
didn't
know
you
had
an
idea
for
for
rotor
heads
and
rotorcraft,
but
I
flew
for
22
years,
the
largest
aircraft
we
have
in
america,
the
ch-53
super
stallion
by
sikorsky.
J
It's
our
heavy
lift
helicopter,
and
so
in
my
line
of
work,
continuing
education
has
been
my
whole
life.
The
last
17
years
of
my
professional
work
life.
I
flew
with
a
major
airline
and
in
that
capacity
it's
always
going
to
training
always
going
to
school.
So
we're
going
to
try
to
show
you,
and
the
idea
is-
is
that
standardization
in
the
state
of
tennessee
for
our
children's
training
on
drug
awareness,
substance,
abuse
and
addiction
processes
is
crucial.
J
I
will
tell
you
here
today,
as
we
start
off
this
brief,
that
in
the
state
of
tennessee
today
we
do
not
have
a
single
piece
of
legislation
that
mandates
that
every
child
in
the
state
of
tennessee
will
get
a
standardized
level
of
drug
awareness,
substance,
abuse
and
addiction
process
training.
We
have
lots
of
people
doing
the
work.
We
have
lots
of
people
educating
and
doing
the
work,
but
we
don't
have
one
consolidated
source
so
that
when
you
lay
your
head
on
the
pillow
at
night,
you
can
lay
your
head
on
the
pill
at
night
go.
J
I
know
that
every
child
in
tennessee,
particularly
from
the
5th
grade
through
the
12th
grade,
has
got
the
same
level
of
knowledge.
So
that's
what
we're
trying
to
talk
about
today.
Our
focus
primarily
is
on
the
kid
kids
and
on
the
the
first
screen
right
there
you
know.
If
you
have
a
pencil,
you
know
it's
always
good
to
write
something
but
where
it
says
sap,
it
says:
drug
awareness,
training,
sap,
s-a-a-p,
that's
substance,
abuse
and
addiction
process.
Training
you'd
be
amazed
at
how
many
children
don't
know
that
they're
living
in
an
addictive
process
situation.
J
J
We
are
not
to
the
stand
in
the
gap
I
mean
to
the
cumberland
gap
and
all
wearing
shirts.
That
said,
stand
in
the
gut.
That
said,
I
want
to
take
a
stand
against
this
drug
issue
that
we're
having
for
our
children
in
our
communities,
so
we've
been
organized
since
2010
hazel
and
I
are
the
originators
of
the
stand
in
the
gap
coalition
and
we
it's
an
all-volunteer-based
group
right
now.
Our
prevention,
our
focus
is,
is
something
we
have
because
of
a
state
grant.
J
J
B
J
J
We
have
a
give
me
a
reason:
free
drug
testing,
a
full
12
panel
kit
that
we
make
available
to
anybody,
particularly
to
parents,
to
put
on
the
refrigerator
that
says:
no,
I'm
not
messing
around
I'm,
not
goofing
off
mom
and
dad
okay.
Well,
then,
just
in
case
you,
we
think
you
are
well
you'll.
Take
this
test
right,
privacy
of
your
own
home,
no
blood
test.
Okay,
cannot
be
used
in
any
punitive
measure.
A
real
piece
of
leverage.
J
What
is
it
you
with
this?
An
addiction
home
and
they
don't
identify
it
as
that,
because
it
seems
we
have
a
youth
prevention
training
and
we
try
to
maintain
that
communication
with
our
school
resources
officers.
I
think
most
everywhere
across
the
state
of
tennessee
now,
has
that
they
are
a
fine
source
for
us
to
work
with.
We've
got
an
on-site
media
lab
that
we've
developed
and
what
we're?
What
we're
trying
to
create
now
is
a
relationship
we
work
closely
with
the
legal
system
and
our
judicial
system.
J
J
All
we
heard
for
the
previous
two
years
I
mean
was
the
opiate
epidemic,
okay
and
for
the
last
year
all
we've
heard
is:
is
the
covid
problem
understood?
Okay,
but
no
one
has
talked
about
dopamine,
but
there's
the
real
story
right
there,
and
in
2020
there
were
81
000
deaths
per
year.
You
can
read
those
numbers,
I
don't
need
to
read
them
to
you,
but
the
one
that's
the
kicker
is.
J
While
we
said
in
this
room
today
before
we
leave
here
in
america,
nine
people
will
have
attempted
an
overdose
okay,
startling
it's
seven
times
greater
than
that.
Okay,
when
you
put
it
all
together
all
right-
and
I
just
recently
discovered
that
they're
they're
saying
now
that
in
the
last
12
months,
it's
the
greatest
increase.
The
greatest
single
increase
in
drug
overdose
deaths
this
past
12
months.
J
J
24
of
those
are
going
to
be
youth,
so
we
do
have
an
issue
that
we
can
correct.
That's
what
we're
here
talking
about.
We
do
have
a
prevention
idea
that
we
can
do
through
education,
okay
and
through
a
a
systematic
program.
Here's
how
we
get
the
message
out.
Here's
one
way
right
here
we
built
this
board.
It's
up.
It's
in
a
prominent
place.
J
Mothers
and
dads
can
see
it
coming
from
the
to
somebody,
and
we've
got
a
number
over
to
the
left
came
up
with
stop
looking,
listen
talk
to
somebody
did
you
we
start
getting
out
there,
then
we're
going
to
go
out,
and
then
we
say:
okay,
now
we're
going
to
tell
the
story,
and
this
is
how
we
tell
it.
This
is
how
we
propose
it.
J
Folks,
we
are
talking
about
not
another
huge
program
for
some
to
create
another
moon
launch
we're
talking
about
information,
that's
already
out
there,
but
we
got
to
get
it
in
a
more
concise
and
a
consolidated
manner,
but
we
go
out
into
the
school
gymnasiums
and
we
go
in
and
we
start
telling
them
the
story.
We
take
the
programs
that
we
built
that
are
45
minutes
long,
that
I
just
told
you
about
left
and
right
of
that
you
will
see
the
face
change
on
that
young
lady.
J
It's
incredible
just
incredible,
and
when
we
do
this
presentation
in
the
gymnasiums,
the
kids
will
be
walking
out
and
they're
filing
out
and
then
they
stop
and
they
back
up
and
they
look
again
and
look
again.
Visual
is
everything
meeting
the
kids
where
they
are
is
everything
kids
are
begging
to
hear
truth
today,
they're
begging,
just
the
truth,
and
that's
all
we
try
to
give
them
is
the
truth.
J
J
I
said
how
many
of
you
got
one
of
these
now
we're
talking
eastern
tennessee
folks,
southeast
kentucky
all
right,
90
percent,
at
least
90
percent
every
I
got
one
and
we
go
and
we
say:
okay,
we
want
to
make
sure
you
understand
something
that
is
a
tool.
It's
not
the
truth.
Don't
mix
it
up
with
the
truth.
It's
the
tool
tools
can
be
good
or
not
so
good.
J
You've
got
kids
out
there
today
having
skittles
parties
where
they
go
and
they
get
dared
to
go
and
bring
meds
from
them
from
their
mother
or
grandparents
cabinets
and
they
go
to
a
party
and
they
throw
in
a
couple
of
cases
of
beer,
and
they
put
all
these
pills.
They
just
pour
them
into
a
bowl
and
they
mix
them
up
and
they
just
dare
each
other
to
take
them.
J
What's
the
difference
between
now
when
you
and
I
were
in
high
school
and
down
the
road
one
pill
today,
one
pill
will
take
a
kid
all
the
way
down
the
road
to
tragedy
and
they
don't
see
that
and
they
think
they
learn
this
through
having
their
cell
phones.
They
they
are
pseudo,
pharmacists,
and
so
we
educate
them.
That's
not
the
truth.
That's
just
a
tool
make
sure
you
know
how
you're
using
it.
J
So
we
get
out
there
and
we
tell
the
story
and
then
we
make
sure
we
tell
all
the
students
we
get
them
into
the
assemblies,
and
I
will
tell
you
right
now
that
so
far
like
I
said,
over
3
000
children
we've
trained.
So
we
know
something
about
what
we're
trying
to
tell
you
today,
these
kids
and
the
teachers.
I've
never
seen
something
so
well
received
by
teachers
every
time
they
come
up
after
the
presentations
and
say.
Thank
you
very
much.
Can
you
come
back?
Can
you
come
back
then?
J
The
next
thing
is
the
audience
there.
They
are
they're
all
out
there
and
we're
talking
to
them
all
right.
Let
me
show
you
something.
Let
me
read
something
to
you,
please
in
one
of
our
presentations.
Okay,
two
weeks
later
after
the
presentation,
I
got
a
letter
from
a
teacher,
she's
teaching,
fifth
and
sixth
grade
students
and
she's
teaching
them
how
to
to
write
and
write
letters,
and
she
sent
me
this
and
if
you
will
allow
me,
okay,
I'm
going
to
read
you
two
short
letters.
This
is
from
the
teacher
this
isn't
january,
20
2020.
J
J
When
we
returned
from
your
program,
several
students
began
sharing
stories
about
how
they
could
use
your
message
to
try
to
reach
a
family
member
fighting
addiction.
I
knew
you
would
be
blessed
to
know
that
an
impact
that
what
an
impact
your
progress,
children,
I
teach
reading
and
writing
here
at
bible
and
letter
writing
is
the
standard
we
are
learning
the
students
asked
if
they
could
write
you
a
letter.
J
J
J
J
J
This
has
changed
and
saved
people's
lives.
Thanks
for
the
program,
I
hope
to
see
you
again
next
year,
nathan,
that's
the
audience,
so
there's
no
doubt
how
we
can
reach
these
people
there's
no
doubt
how
we
can
get
to
them
now.
What
do
we
know
and
we've
presented
this
to
our
our
school
board
and
what
we
know
is
this
teachers
work
hard.
They
work
really
hard.
J
You
would
not
believe
how
many
children
die
today,
because
they
didn't
have
the
knowledge
it's
not
like
when
we
were
in
high
school
in
junior
high.
I
don't
know
about
you,
but
you
know
there
were
very
I
mean
a
slits
montlicker
wasn't
going
to
kill
me
when
I
was
in
high
school
okay,
but
I'm
going
to
tell
you
that
now
the
kids
can
get
started
on
one
one
time
to
meth
one
time
to
oxycontin.
J
J
Okay,
so
we
know
that
the
teachers
work
hard
and
we
know
that
in
the
12th
hour
of
the
12th
year
it
can
all
go
up
in
smoke.
The
number
one
reason
students
fail
to
graduate
today
drugs.
Now
let
me
clarify
a
little
bit.
Okay,
there
are
other
reasons,
but
if
a
student
gets
involved
with
drug
activity,
it
will
be
a
number
one.
It'll
turn
out
to
be
a
number
one
reason
they
won't
turn
around
and
they
won't
graduate
it's
serious,
so
standardized
and
cons
and
consistent
drug
awareness,
substance,
abuse
and
addictive
process.
J
The
process-
training,
we
think
is
vital
5th
through
12th
grades,
is
where
the
focus
ought
to
be.
That's
what
we're
coming
over
and
trying
to
plant
the
seeds
for,
let's
get
it
consolidated
in
the
state,
let's
bring
it
under
one
program
and
make
sure
that
every
child
gets
the
same
level
of
training
from
the
5th
to
the
12th
grades.
There's
a
lot
of
programs
out
there
a
lot
of
good
programs,
but
what
if
we
could
consolidate
them
and
make
them
more
comprehensive?
J
Okay,
instead
of
having
multiforce
the
money's
already
funded
in
a
whole
lot
of
education
programs
out
there,
we
just
realigned
that
money.
I
spoke
to
my
congressman
tim
burchard
about
this.
I've
spoken
to
my
other
representatives
and
the
first
question
I
always
get
is:
how
are
you
going
to
fund
this?
How
does
it
get
funded?
I
said
I
believe
the
money's
already
out
there
and
I
believe
we
can
find
it
it's
already
in
education
sources
out
there
doing
this
kind
of
training
in
a
lot
of
different
venues.
J
We
just
need
to
consolidate
it
all
right,
but
what
we
know
is
fifth
to
the
12th
grades.
If
a
child,
the
statistics
are
this:
if
a
child
gets
consistent
drug
awareness,
substance,
abuse
and
addiction
process,
training
from
the
5th
to
the
12th
grade,
there's
a
less
than
ten
percent
chance.
They'll
fail
to
graduate
that's
good
money,
that's
a
way
big
uptick!
Also.
J
It
says
that
if
they
get
this
same
kind
of
training
that
less
than
20
of
them,
if
they
get
this
consistent
training
fifth
through
the
12th
grade,
less
than
20
percent
will
take
up
an
addictive
process.
As
a
young
adult,
that's
a
big,
that's
a
big
uptick!
So
and
I
said
look
we
can
reduce
that
legal
involvement.
We
can
reduce
what
the
warden's
having
to
look
at
and
train
people
and
educate
people.
J
Okay,
if
we
get
to
see
them
from
the
5th
through
the
12th
grade,
we
know
there's
a
certain
level
of
education
they're
going
to
get
that's
going
to
go
into
their
adult
life
all
right.
We
can
also
increase
their
citizen
productivity,
okay,
and
we
can
also
promote
a
more
healthy,
a
safe
and
a
healthy
community.
J
J
It
has
something
to
look
at,
but
what
you're
looking
at
is
that
a
child
would
get
six
hours
of
classroom
training
per
year
in
a
whole
year,
six
hours,
one
and
a
half
hours
twice
each
semester,
okay,
and
in
that
training
they
would
get
this
continual
training
on
the
addiction
processes
and
substance
abuse.
But
here's
something
that's
way
different
that
nobody's
talking
about
what
about
the
teachers?
J
J
Hollow
here,
marijuana
pills.
Okay,
we
bought
these
off
of
ebay,
I
mean
off
of
amazon.
You
can
buy
these
anywhere,
it's
a
deceptive
decoy,
it's
what
I
call
it.
Okay,
it
simply
fits
together
like
this
kid
puts
it,
they
come
home.
You
don't
think
a
thing
about
it.
When
your
grandchild
comes
home
with
your
child
from
school
looks
like
water
to
me,.
J
Airbrush
take
the
end
off
storage,
place,
pills,
marijuana
vapes,
the
vapes
are
small
enough.
They
fit
in
here.
Education
is
important,
updated
information
is
even
more
important.
So
what
we
propose
is
is
that,
along
with
the
children,
getting
the
education
once
per
semester,
an
hour
and
a
half
parents,
teachers
and
as
school
resources
officers
will
get
an
updated
training
on
what's
out
there
in
the
community
what's
happening.
Do
you
realize
that
you
could
have
your
grandchild
come
home
with
a
yellow,
highlighter,
a
big
barrel,
yellow
highlighter?
Okay
in
the
backpack?
You
think
nothing
about
it.
J
It's
a
vape!
Okay
vaping
is
physically
debilitating
to
a
child.
Okay,
when
a
child
gets
and
and
does
vaping
for
so
long.
That
vape
goes
through
the
alveolar
parts
of
the
of
the
arrows
and
the
lung
okay,
but
when
it
comes
back,
it
doesn't
filter
back
through
it
hangs
up
and
it
crystallizes
and
it's
something.
There's
a
slang
word
they're
calling
popcorn
lung.
I
don't
know
if
you've
heard
of
there
or
not
okay,
I've
got
a
quick
story
about
a
young
girl
who's
up
in
new
jersey.
J
This
happened
a
year
ago,
13
years
old.
She
goes
to
the
mall
on
the
weekend.
She
meets
with
her
two
other
girlfriends
they
go
outside.
They
meet
with
a
couple.
Other
kids:
hey
we're
having
a
good
old
time,
they're
out
there
blowing
these
big
smoke
rings.
I
know
you've
seen
it
okay
using
their
vape
all
right.
She
thought
that's
pretty
cool,
hey!
You
need
to
try
this,
so
she
did.
J
She
didn't
see
any
real
problem
with
it.
It
even
had
a
taste
to
it.
It
tasted,
like
gummy,
bears
okay.
She
comes
back
next
weekend.
They
try
it
again.
A
few
more
friends
are
out
there
she's,
starting
to
feel
just
a
little
bit
more
popular
she's
feeling
a
little
bit
more
in
all
right.
So
then,
let's
fast
forward
this
two
months
later,
she's
bought
her
own
vape.
J
She
has
it
between
the
box
spring
and
the
mattress
she
can't
get
out
of
bed
in
the
morning
to
go
to
school
until
she
takes
a
hit
on
the
vape,
and
she
doesn't
understand
why
she
doesn't
understand
that
she's
now
addicted
to
nicotine,
because
nicotine
is
the
base
source
of
the
vase.
The
vape
product.
This
particular
young
lady
in
new
jersey
had
been
on
the
swim
team,
private
swim
team,
since
she
was
eight
years
old,
now,
she's
13
and
she
got
dropped
off
of
the
swim
team
because
she
couldn't
breathe.
She
could
no
longer
compete.
J
Her
parents
don't
understand.
What's
going
on,
her
attitude
has
changed
she's,
not
doing
the
same
toward
her
own
school
work
anymore
and
finally,
she
got
scared
enough
to
talk
to
her
parents
and
then
the
issue
gets
greater,
because
where
do
you
take
a
child
which
physician,
do
you
take
a
child
to
to
say
my
child's
addicted
to
nicotine?
What
do
I
do?
How
do
I?
How
do
I
deal
with
this?
So
we
have
a
real
onslaught
upon
our
children.
J
So
that's
the
training
and,
as
you
see
down
there,
it
says
this.
The
semester
training
focus
first
semester,
the
we
built
a
project
called
stop.
Looking
listen,
I
showed
you
that
second
addiction,
what
is
it
you'll
be
amazed?
How
do
you
define
addiction?
These
kids
ask
them
what
it's
like?
What
kind
of
home
they
live
in
third
semester,
teens
for
teens,
we
found
out
that
nobody
gives
a
stronger
witness
than
teens
telling
other
teens
what
they
know
and
these
teens
say
thank
you
for
telling
us
the
truth.
J
They
just
want
to
know
the
truth
and
then
finally,
the
fourth
semester
as
they're
getting
ready
to
leave
school
it's
at
the
end
of
the
year.
The
training
is
help
and
where,
over
the
summer,
where'd
I
go.
If
I
got
to
call
somebody
where
did
I
go?
If
I
need
some
help?
Where
do
I
go?
If
I
need
to
get
somebody
else,
some
help,
so
we
would
propose
each
year
a
training
that
six
classroom
hours
for
students
three
classroom
hours
for
for
parents.
J
That's,
of
course
that's
voluntary
okay,
but
in
that
it
would
be
age
specific
from
the
fifth
to
the
twelfth
grade.
We
propose
that
we
can
get
that
aligned
in
the
state
of
tennessee
and
be
the
first
state
in
america
to
know
that
every
child
is
getting
the
same
base
plate
the
same
boiler
plate
of
information,
step
success.
J
All
right.
We've
talked
about
it
now
what
first,
let's
conceptualize
a
standard
and
that's
what
we're
here
talking
about
today,
let's
get
a
standard
to
talk
about
drug
awareness
and
substance,
abuse
and
addiction
process,
training,
state
statewide.
It
could
be
a
phased-in
approach.
All
right
now
keep
in
mind.
I'm
proposing
this
to
you,
I'm
not
a
government
person,
I'm
not
a
representative,
I'm
a
private
citizen,
but
I've
been
doing
this
for
10
years.
Okay,
I've
been
doing
training
all
my
life.
All
right,
hazel's
been
doing
a
training
most
all
of
her
life.
J
J
We've
got
to
find
out
a
health
organization
to
look
it
over
and
we
need
to
find
out
from
the
education
people
who's
already
doing.
This
kind
of
education
verify
the
existing
programs.
Okay,
we
need
to
write
a
bill.
It
needs
to
go
to
a
bill,
and
this
bill
needs
to
finally
go
to
a
piece
of
legislation
where
that
we
can
say:
there's
no
doubt
about
it.
J
Every
child
is
going
to
get
the
same
education
every
year
in
the
state
of
tennessee
and
then
finally,
okay,
we
would
just
celebrate
having
a
new
law,
knowing
that
every
student
has
got
this
training
by
the
way
representative
mark
has
got
this
handout
that's
available.
If
somebody
wants
to
come
and
get
it,
I
brought
them
if
you'd
like
to
get
this
okay,
but
in
any
case
that's
who
we
are
and
we'd
love
to
talk
to
somebody
again
in
the
state
of
tennessee.
There's
lots
of
drug
coalitions
there's
at
least
22.
J
J
What
we're
missing
is
the
consolidated
plan
to
where
everybody
every
school
system
teaches
the
same
thing
to
every
student
so
that
we
can
put
our
head
on
the
pill
at
night
go.
You
know
what
I'm
not
going
to
worry
about
that
one
little
kid
down
there
that
didn't
get
the
word.
You
know
and
went
to
that
party
and
goofed
off
and
had
tragedy
because
of
it.
So
I'm
saying
all
we
need
for
the
considerations.
Finally,
we
need
an
organization
to
do
an
exploratory
research
in
how
this
could
be
done
and
I
think
there
they
are.
J
We
need
the
funding.
I
say
I
think,
there's
some
existing
programs
out
there.
I
think
there's
state
programs
out
there
and
I
think,
there's
some
federal
money
out
there,
but
it's
not
like
we're
going
to
the
moon
again.
This
is
not
what
this
is.
There's
enough
out
there
right
now
in
my
research
that
we
can
put
this
together
con
solid
and
have
something
statewide
that
no
other
state
in
america
has
got.
J
J
If
we
can't
see
that
every
child
at
least
has
the
same
boilerplate
of
information
to
keep
them
safe
and
healthy,
the
impacts
are
great.
The
impact
of
the
student
is
great.
The
impact
of
that
student's
family
is
great.
The
community
is
great.
The
impact
of
the
legal
system
is
great.
There's
no
downside.
B
A
Thank
you
so
very
much
and
we
appreciate
y'all
driving
all
the
way
from
upper
east
tennessee
to
present
this,
what
a
great
work
or
our
children
need
to
be
educated
on
this
and
members.
I
want
you
to
hear
this
and
maybe
put
our
minds
together.
I've
got
contact
cards
from
mr
spurlock
that
I
want
to
give
to
you.
I've
got
copies
of
the
presentation,
so
we
can
follow
up,
or
at
least
you
can
follow
up
in
your
district
and
you'd
like
to
anyone,
have
a
comment
or
question
from
our
guest
about
the
presentation.
H
I
I
serve
on
metro,
drug
coalition
in
knox
county
have
for
many
years
and
very
passionate
dear
my
heart,
and
I'm
always
amazed
at
the
things
that
come
through
that
the
new
ways
that
kids
have
learned
to
to
get
their
drugs
and
hide
it
from
their
parents
and
all.
But
I
would
say
I
did
not
know
how
the
bottles
come
apart
and
I
had
not
heard
her
seen
about
the
hair
brushes
and
all
so
I
would
love
to
and
and
I've.
I
It
all
comes
around
back
to
education
and
that
our
children
I
mean,
even
though
this
is
like
fifth
grade
up
and
when
you
and
I
because
I
know
we
must
be
closest,
saying
mate
because
you
said
junior
high
and
now
that's
called
middle
school.
But
now
I
mean
our
kids
are
seeing
this
and
being
around
this
much
earlier
than
fifth
grade
and
and
it
in
the
thing
about
having
the
training
in
it
and
the
courses.
I
Where
they're
you
know,
they're
innocent,
when
they
first
start
getting
into
this.
They
don't
you
know,
hey
well,
it's
okay,
so,
and
so
so
I'm
strong
supporter
of
this
and
how
we've
got
to
get
in
our
in
education
system
and
how
standardized
it's
going
to
be
all
state-wide.
You
can't
have
different
counties
and
cities
having
different
programs,
absolutely.
H
I
So
you
know
they
used
to
have
all
of
the,
and
it
was
a
fifth
grade
course.
A
dare
was
a
dare
a
dare
program
when
my
daughter
was
going
through
school
and
you
know
what
it
all
went
away.
Yep
it
was.
It
was
such
a
big
thing
and
we
had
a
lot
of
athletes.
A
lot
of
the
ut
football
players
went
and
spoke,
you
know,
and
they
had
a
big
graduation
every
year.
Well,
what
happened
to
any
of
that?
I
I
I
mean,
like
I
say
I
serve
on
metro
drug
coalition,
which
has
our
d.a
our
sheriff
our
school
superintendent.
It
has
everybody
helen
ross,
mcnabb
people,
cherokee
health,
we
have
everybody,
that's
involved
and-
and
I
don't
know
I
I've-
never
heard
of
any
programs
that
we
are
really
teaching
all
across
the
state
of
tennessee
in
every
school
system,
any
kind
of
education
that
I
mean
it
should
just
be
something
health
class
and
and
all
that
I
don't
even
know,
if
that's
even
being
taught
but
totally
support
y'all.
I
I
hope
that
there's
something
that
we
as
a
board
and
our
legislators
will
take
very
serious
because
we
were
making
some
some
progress
on
the
opiate
issue
and
all
and
now
everything
with
coving
and
the
depression,
and
all
that
scared.
A
lot
of
that
back
up
and
I
hate
to
quit
putting
the
blame
on
stuff.
It's
time
that
we
we
say
we
know
this
is
an
issue,
and
this
is
a
problem
for
all
children.
It
doesn't
matter
what
part
of
the
county
or
what
that
you
live
in
what
area.
I
It
is
a
huge
problem
and
they
are
out
there
attacking
our
children
every
single
day
by,
like
you
say
so,
thank
you
very
much
and
you're
right
there,
because
something
that
we
can
edge
our
educate
our
kids
on
this,
because,
if,
if
we
don't
educate,
teach
them
how
to
read-
and
all
that
also
plays
into
this,
that
is
one
reason
why
sometimes
they
get
into
this
it's
because
they
feel
very
insecure
and
they
can't
do
in
school
like
a
lot
of
the
other
kids.
So
it's
kind
of
a
way
for
them.
I
Sometimes
I
think
to
try
to
feel
cool
or
a
group
and,
of
course
accept
you
as
you're
you're
willing
to
act
just
like
they
are
then
they'll
drag
you
right
along
with
it.
So
thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
chairman
for
for
having
the
passion
about
this,
to
bring
it
to
all
you
know
to
to
everyone
and
and
and
say
hey.
It
all
goes
hands
in
hand.
I
A
J
It's
on
our
first
slide:
okay
and
it's
at
the
bottom,
because
we
are
faith-based
group
okay,
but
we
work
with
everyone.
That's
been
given
us
a
little
problem,
but
anyways
we
work
with
anyone
and
everybody,
but
ii,
chronicles
7
14,
says
if
my
people,
who
are
called
name,
will
humble
themselves
and
pray
and
turn
from
their
wicked
ways
and
seek
my
face.
