Trey Knowles MusicTrey Knowles - I Am A RefugeeTrey Knowles' “I Am A Refugee” is a spiritually charged and deeply reflective song that confronts the realities of persecution, injustice, and the search for true refuge. Trey paints a vivid picture of how the innocent become refugees—not by choice, but through the actions of the wicked who steal, kill, and destroy. Whether through physical oppression, emotional harm, or spiritual manipulation, the wicked turn the vulnerable into wanderers searching for safety.
Yet Trey reminds listeners of a greater truth: the earth is the Lord's, created for all people equally. No one is superior, no one more entitl...

A new state law allows the creation of ten charter schools over the next three years. That can include two virtual charter schools. A state authorizing board is reviewing seven applications that are required to follow the same rules and regulations that public schools do. But charters can offer more flexibility to adapt and adjust learning approaches. In some states like Colorado, Michigan, North Carolina and California more than 10 percent of students now attend charter schools. The educational reform...

Us & ThemJuvie: Why are so many young West Virginians incarcerated and at what cost?Every year, West Virginia children are taken into state custody. Sometimes, a case involves parental neglect or drug abuse. Other times, kids commit crimes and are placed in juvenile residential facilities. The juvenile justice programs and agencies have been under a spotlight over the past decade - partly because West Virginia has had one of the highest rates of juvenile incarceration in the country. Lawmakers have passed bills to reform the system but the outcome is mixed. Meanwhile, juvenile incarceration means the system makes decisions for kids - and those changes can last a lifetime.

Lethal overdoses were up by 20%. Isolation, anxiety and boredom, three triggers for drug abuse, have created the so-called mental health ‘shadow pandemic.’ And for West Virginia, an existing shortage of healthcare professionals means there are not enough workers for hospitals, clinics and treatment centers that are seeing more patients in distre...

While state officials are now reopening businesses, the pandemic is far from over. Seventy-eight West Virginians have died due to COVID-19. 250,000 unemployment claims have been filed. But the pandemic has exacted another toll — it’s fractured many of the state’s healthcare institutions. When the state was in quarantine mode, hospitals delayed and canceled many medical procedures. People shied away from elective surgeries that are just the kind of procedures that make money for hospitals. As a result, revenues are down and some hea...
