Hi David, I'm sorry I did not respond when you asked for this the last time. I am waiting to hear what the County Commissioners have to say about this. If it turns out that we cannot use county funding for services to undocumented immigrants, then the effect on us will be that we either a) have to turn down funding from Boulder County or b) have to start asking our clients for information regarding their status. If we decide to ask clients about their status, we risk scaring them away from seeking our assistance, which in turn will increase the number of people residing in East Boulder County who are hungry. Also, if we ask for information regarding status, we would then have to figure out a way to only use county funding for people who are here legally. More than likely this will cause an administrative nightmare- not too mention more work for staff and volunteers who have more than enough to do as it is.

How will HBS-1023 affect your agency? Some folks have responded but it would be helpful to hear from everyone.
