In November 2009, in a Newsletter sent by the Greene County Children Services, Director Rhonda Reagh announced her retirement saying "This is my last, official column in the Children’s Herald as my retirement date draws near. We have so many things to be proud of over the last twelve years, but perhaps one of the most exceptional is the progress the agency, and community, has made in improving our rate of finalized adoptions."

Greene County epidemiologists usually see a handful of salmonella cases throughout an entire year, but four cases in two days is highly unusual and is a cause for concern. Out of the four infections found since Monday, May 17, two of the individuals involved required hospitalization; officials have not yet been able to determine the source or common grounds for the infections.

A few days ago I wrote about a specific instance in which the Greene County Children Services took aim at a local family, and through a proxy (a psychologist in this instance) attacked the ways in which the family approached the raising of their children. Due to Children Services agencies having a track record of targeted abuse and attacks on homeschooling families, I decided to get my hands on the budget and financials of Greene County Children Services.
