| A friend of mine works for Utahs Division of Services for
Disabled Persons (DSPD). Theyre in the same suite as the
Division of Child and Family Service (DCFS). He says he has
absolutely no respect for the way the operate (biased,
illogical). One of his coworkers is a woman who, in her
own words, defected from DCFS because of what she sees
as unfair operating procedures. She (Ill call her Jane)
told my friend that when women called them asking for free
legal help, they were instructed to refer the women to Utah
Legal Services. |
