CCC testified on the Public Protection related proposals in the Governor’s Executive Budget for State Fiscal Year 2015-2016 on February 26, 2015. We thanked the Legislature – particularly those who focused on the Public Protection components of the Budget and those on the Judiciary Committee – for their support for increasing the number of Family Court Judges. We believe that while the Executive Budget takes some critical steps to accomplish the ambitious goals the Governor laid out, additional investments are needed to address the needs of children and families, while allowing the State to maintain a fiscally prudent budget.
