An Idaho advisory panel is developing a bill to require autopsies in circumstances including unexplained child deaths.
The state would help fund autopsies for coroners who get national certification, to address underfunding and bolster standards.

Urgent Humanitarian Appeal 🙏🙏
I am writing this appeal with a heavy heart and deep helplessness. My family is going through extremely difficult circumstances, and there are days when we do not have enough food or basic necessities. The need is real and urgent, and our patience is running out.
I appeal to kind-hearted people and those who can help: any assistance, no matter how small, could save an entire family and restore a sense of safety to our lives.
If you are unable to help, please share

I’m writing this while trying not to lose hope
The campaign is still ongoing, but the support has been very limited, and over the past few days we’ve only received a small amount.
Every contribution even a simple one means a step closer to relief,
and every share could help this reach the right person at the right time.
🙏 Please don’t ignore this post.
You may not be able to donate a large amount, but $10 or $15 from multiple people can make Real Difference

It’s been over a decade since Alaska significantly increased its funding for public education.
Two school districts are now suing the state for what they say is a long-running failure to give students a “sound basic education.”

“In my two decades as a reporter, I’ve sat at many kitchen tables with grieving mothers,” ProPublica reporter Megan Rose writes.
“Talking with Holly, though, was the first time I’d done so as a mother myself. Her sorrow hit me differently.”

The proposal follows a ProPublica and New York Focus investigation that found counties had placed thousands of adults and children in often-dilapidated hotels as the main response to homelessness.

If you are estranged from a parent, or have ever wondered how those situations arise, I’ve written about my own experience.
Parental estrangement still carries a lot of taboo and is often described as a trend.
I hope what I have written helps to convey the long process and complexity behind a decision like this, which is rarely made on a whim.
