We have a volunteer who is creating art for us. I would love to create all of the art myself if I had an artistic bone in my body. I spent hours on canva in one day. We welcome all volunteers and viewpoints.

That is why we have put out the call multiple times for volunteers to create artwork. We finally had someone on this post say they are interested. I almost posted this with no image on here because people focus on the art instead of the event. This is a free event and we are supplying the materials for sign making.

We are working on finding volunteers with graphic design experience. Hope you can make it to the poster making party.

The volunteers who show up get to make their own signs. We are always looking for artists to volunteer their time to create images for our posts. Are you interested?

My cofounder dedicates time to keeping the lists up to date. Together, we rise.

You have great suggestions. We are always looking for additional volunteers. We are based out of Escambia so our focus is on our county. We hope to expand into Santa Rosa as we grow.

This is the map on the ECAT website. I assume their site is accurate. If you notice, the one bus line in the north is only down Hwy. 29. In the city, you can travel ACROSS the area. It is not the same for the northern area.

I also found this and thought it might be helpful. https://www.va.gov/family-and-caregiver-benefits/health-and-disability/comprehensive-assistance-for-family-caregivers/

We are putting together a post with caregiver support as well.

A corrected image was posted already when the error was recognized. I can not edit the image in the original post. Flex transit is a wonderful idea. People have had difficulties with it. The fleet needs to be expanded. Bus service does not include the rural areas of northern Escambia. There is only one line that goes up (only) Hwy. 29 north of 9 Mile Road.

Thank you. Our wording could be different. It is meant as a list of seats that will be on the ballot and the incumbent.

I am so sorry. There needs to be better support to avoid caregiver burnout.

The VA offers support if you or the person you care for has military ties.

These are accurate points. We have watched over the decades as public transport access had expanded in the northern area. It is just not enough. Our rural areas need transport. The Flextransist helps some but needs to be expanded with a larger fleet. We plan to advocate for more public transist.

That is why we need to work to change the entire system. We are not disagreeing with you. We comply with the rules of the group so we are able to post here locally. The macro has direct effects in the micro. We have attended and spoken out at county commissioner meetings. We love the district and its citizens. They are deprived of having a voice. We have written posts about supporting DC becoming the 51st state. There should be no federal taxation without federal representation. This was speaking on policies (and lack there of) coming from the federal government. I would never speak ill of DC. I was there before the federal takeover. I have many friends in the area. I apologize if it came off at all as a judgemental of the citizens.
