TOPEKA, Kansas — A new study gives fuel to arguments that the state could significantly spare children from landing in foster care if the state spent more ...

“We want to support that family.” Ginther’s study looked at food assistance, but people advocating for more government assistance to poor families contend other social safety programs also can prevent the sort of household collapses that can put children in foster care. In 2022, only one in three children enter foster care because of FINA. In 2014, half the children in foster care entered because of a FINA removal. If we have the opportunity to give these folks … job training so they can be more successful … that’s a 100% good thing.” “People receiving SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or food stamps) benefits are really low income and any amount of money at the margin will make a difference,” she said.

Defensive lineman Blake Herold announces commitment to Kansas ... (247Sports)

The KU football program has added to its 2023 class.

But he and his family felt like sleeping on it was the way to go and Herold is even more confident in his decision to be a Jayhawk. "It's good to get to know them, because we were we were in the media room taking pictures and stuff so the whole defensive staff was in there," Herold said. With Herold on board, KU’s 2023 recruiting class ranks No. 75 nationally and No. 10 in the Big 12. KU was able to evaluate Herold in person during a June camp and the recruit returned for an unofficial visit on Tuesday. In the end, Herold picked the Jayhawks over offers from North Dakota, North Dakota State and Northern Iowa. The 6-foot-4, 245-pound defensive lineman is rated as a three-star prospect according to the 247Sports recruiting staff. KU became Herold’s first Power 5 offer on Tuesday evening and it didn’t take long for Herold to jump at the opportunity.
