Last week, Richland County Commissioners were joined by Children Services Executive Director as they marked April as Child Abuse Prevention Awareness in the county.  The public child welfare agency wants to help families keep children in their own homes.

It's National Vietnam Veterans Day. Veterans shared their stories with us and with one another during Saturday’s  Ashland Vietnam Era Reunion dinner. The stories included accounts of being spit on and scolded when in the U.S. after the war’s end. In fact, things were so bad that some had not talked about their service until decades later, others not even then.
