"As I have often heard her say, “collaboration is the key” to meaningful reforms. [State Attorney] Fernandez Rundle doesn’t just say this, she puts it into practice, which has resulted in innovative solutions like Drug Court, Mental Health Court, and Veteran Court. She works with partners across various sectors to combat human trafficking, crimes against kids, and gun violence." - Kristi House CEO Amanda Altman on State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle (SAO Miami) Read more now in SocialMiami: https://lnkd.in/e8RERYv3
