Does the Explosion in Casinos and Lotteries Bother You?

Question by TheseUnitedStates: Does the explosion in casinos and lotteries bother you?
It seems to hit the people who can least afford it the most — those with the fewest disposable resources. Of course free will comes into play. But is the government really doing anybody a favor to approve all these casinos popping up all over the place? Does anyone live in a state where you have concrete examples of the good done with all the revenue the lottery generates?
There was high literacy rate in NY before the existence of lotteries or casinos, without their attendant regressive tax drain on the poor. It’s not “as a result” of gambling that your home states literacy rate is high.

Where Can I Look Up Drug Rehab Programs in Virginia?

Question by capoeirakid: Where can I look up drug rehab programs in Virginia?
Okay, so my mom and her friend are starting a lfe coaching business. I’m going to help them by finding programs such as rehabs, support groups, charities, etc. for their clients. Right now, I’m helping them look for a rehab for this one kid who we think might potentially become a client and he’s addicted to marijuana. He’s looking for a rehab program that can help him. In order for the place to be able to help him, the place needs to be something like this:
1. He’s 17, so it needs to be a rehab for kids or kids and adults.
2. He has a felony charge and they’re appealing the charge, but they can’t do anything more about that until a few months from now, so it needs to accept kids with felony charges.
3. Preferably, it should be a live-in rehab.
4. A place with a lot of rules and structure would be best for this kid.
5. It would be best if the rehab is in or near Northern Virginia.
All of this is based on info my mom gave me about the kid. Don’t worry, I don’t know his name or anything like that. I was hoping that there’s a website or something where I can look up rehab programs by key words or something like that. Also, if you know of a rehab that will be good for him, please tell me. Thanks!
To buds: Do you know if Crosby Centers has a location in/near NoVa?
Does Crosby Centers accept people with felony charges?
Does Crosby Centers accept kids?
I looked for this info on the website, but I couldn’t find it.
Thanks!

If You Abandoned Your First Child and Get Pregnant Again Will CPS Take the Newborn? (Virginia)?

Question by Mom with a Misson: If you abandoned your first child and get pregnant again will CPS take the newborn? (Virginia)?
My cousin abandoned her 4 month old daughter due to a drug addiction. Luckily the child’s grandmother was there to adopt her and provide her with a loving, stable environment and she is now a beautiful 6 year old girl. My cousin is due to have another baby very soon and is currently on methadone treatments. She has no where to go once the baby is born because she has burned all her bridges with the family. I am extremely concerned about the welfare of this child once it is born. Will CPS be aware of the current situation from her past case? Should I just go ahead and call CPS to make them aware?
