We have brought a multitude of new diversion programs and courts to Hays County, but that's not good enough. We need to expand the programs we do have and add new courts with new focusses!

We have developed new programs to resolve cases more efficiently, but now we need to continue investing in additional training and technology for our staff to meet the challenges of 2030s prosecutions. In addition, the DA's Office is physically bursting at the seams, and innovative solutions are needed to meet the space constraints of a booming but cost-conscious county.

We have re-focused on multiple levels to address the unique challenges that come with victim crimes, but we need to continue to develop and invest in our Victim Services division, our Family Justice Unit, and our protective order process.

Increased efficiency in our civil division and creating an Environmental Enforcement Unit provides Hays County a unique opportunity to pursue strategies to fight back against overreach by Austin, Washington D.C., and Big Business.
