As a Trustee of  Boys' Home of Virginia, I have grave concerns about the ability of this storied institution to continue its legacy to the state and nation if all of the VAISEF recommendations are not adopted. 

And as a parent, I know from experience that "one-size-fits-all" rules and guidance for child development do not work at all, much less effectively.  I strongly encourage this state agency to preserve Boys' Home's ability to offer its students the unique developmental opportunities through the proven, quality child care and educational systems it has provided since 1906.
