Vista Views

The “Meltdown”

“Vista Views” is a place where AVNA Members can post comments about AVNA, issues regarding the neighborhood, and other concerns and thoughts. It is not the place to criticize neighbors, but it IS the place to praise someone you think deserves it. “Vista Views” is also the place where you can find official AVNA position statements and editorials. Treat this space somewhat as you would the Letters section of a newspaper. You can send your comments to the WebGuy who acts as moderator and editor: avnaweb@grandecom.net . And don’t forget, we’re always looking for news reports, and digital photos and graphics too.

We all have our feelings and opinions about the most recent crises in government and finance, and we have noted here for some time the extensiveness of incompetence and irresponsibility at all levels of government. But what are the meanings and implications for our neighborhood?

Basically, it means we should be aware of those in our area that are having difficulty, specifically paying for housing, food, health care, education, and supporting children. Under stress people may do things they don’t want to or wouldn’t ordinarily do. AVNA and its members can help direct needed services to our neighbors if needed. Be aware of your neighbors and their circumstances, for as they go so go we all.
