The purpose in this website is to allow the public to learn about what DMRS is planning to do with their budget and how drastically the changes will effect those recieving services. We hope that you will find the information posted on this site helpful. It is our ultimate hope that the public will come to realize how millions of our tax dollars have been mismanaged, services either denied or cut and finally...that if the proposed cuts go through then there may will be many individuals suffering without proper services. As a matter of fact, there have already been a number of services cut from individuals who needed services. As a result, these individuals are suffering and have been placed in harms way. Likewise, citizens in our communities have been placed in significant harm. Some of our lawmakers have not even been able to understand the seriousness in the present situation.
