It seems as though there isn't much assistance for the elderly currently in this area and many others for that matter. The public assistance programs that are available for people in need of help "just are non -existant" because I have been told on several occasions "lack of funding". This in and of itself is a major failure with the improper handling of funds and the funds not being allocated to individuals whom meet the criteria for different programs,....homelessness, disabled elderly. I think that with amount of funds the state of Missouri is granted could make a life-changing difference in the lives of many people if they were distributed properly.to those currently in need.
