Funding "Birth to Three" in W.Va.

The Charleston Gazette follows up on its report of a funding crunch facing a state program for developmentally delayed infants and toddlers, with officials proposing that enrollees' parents pick up more of the costs.

"I want to look at every part of the program to see what opportunities there are for cost-sharing," Health and Human Resources Secretary Martha Walker told The Gazette. "It's a wonderful program, but there's not a never-ending pool of money to fund it. Cost-sharing has to be part of the solution."

Taking the step in the improvement of the infants and toddlers is great. This step should be taken by the state. The Health and Human Resources should take much care so that there may not be any kid suffering.
