PRESERVING SERVICES DURING TIMES WITH UNSTABLE FUNDING Despite a year-over-year reduction in funding, the court remains committed to investing resources in initiatives designed to strengthen its infrastructure and increase access to justice for the community it serves. This is evident in the continued expansion of services to areas within the county that were previously devoid of them. Because economic uncertainty exists, the court will continue to operate with a strategic mindset and evaluate the return on investment of all actions taken. This will ensure resources are optimized to their fullest potential and the overarching goals of the court are achieved. COURT
