As DA, I will invest in more diversion programs which will guide individuals away from incarceration and into programs where they get the help they need--and without having to plead guilty even in most cases.

Question about this: What are the current funding for projects like this? What ability or steps would you have to increase funding if you found it deficient?

Great thanks for the answer. I had no idea the DA had budget for programs like that so that's very interesting to learn. Good luck with your campaign.

What do you feel like the learning curve will be moving from being a public defender to the DA's office? Are there any steps you have taken or would take to minimize that transition?
