Tomorrow is Independence Day, a day to celebrate.听 For most it鈥檚 a day at the lake, a barbecue, and definitely fireworks.听 Hopefully, we all take a moment to reflect on what happened two hundred and forty years ago and perhaps contemplate politics in 2016.听 Finally add the importance our agricultural heritage to the mix.
SWAG合集 has been awarded a grant of more than $1 million, paid out over three years, to develop its already robust inmate education programming at Ellsworth Correctional Facility and Larned Correctional and Mental Health Facility.
The Improved Reentry Education (IRE) grants were given to only nine communities in the United States.
