10th LD, House, Pos. 2: Gilday’s focus on homelessness

I have been doing some research on the 10th Legislative District House race and have been impressed by Greg Gilday’s background and suggested policies on homelessness. I have lived in the 10th District for 30 years and I know the district well.

Greg has stressed addressing homelessness as one of his priorities once elected. Greg has suggested providing strong state support for cities that have successful embedded social worker or navigator programs.Ways that the state can do this are by providing more detox and treatment facilities, diversion programs, and more transitional housing for those who have completed treatment.

Greg Gilday is a husband, father, attorney and our best option to represent us in the State Legislature. I believe that Greg has the ability to work cohesively with others in the Legislature to pass common-sense solutions regarding this important issue. It is crucial that we elect individuals with pragmatic solutions to address the issues that are most important to us here in the 10th Legislative District and across the state. That is why I am voting for Greg Gilday.

I urge you to vote Greg Gilday for 10th Legislative District representative!
