At NC State's Stewart Theater, Former Secretary of Health and Human Services Donna Shalala discussed legislation that would assist returning servicemen and women. Not only were our responsibilities to the wounded emphasized, but also our ability to provide for the on-going education of our service members. Dr. Shalala addressed an audience of students, guests including First Lady Mary Easley, reporters, and members of the armed forces. Questions were accepted from the audience and ranged from inquiries into how soldiers could learn of the benefits already available, to how what we learn through caring for our wounded might affect the development of universal health care. Following the formal address, I was pleased to be able to talk with service members about the conundrums presented by the deployment of parents who leave children behind with friends and family members. While the children remain enrolled in local schools, our family courts must find ways for their temporary guardians and custodians to act in their best interests, without interfering with the family structure upon the return of the soldier-parents.
