	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 34
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize Barbara Adamson for her exceptional efforts through
	the Care Van Program to help the children of Texas lead healthier
	lives; and
	WHEREAS, Barbara Adamson developed the Care Van Program in
	1997; one of the most comprehensive and innovative immunization
	outreach programs in the state, it has provided more than 858,000
	immunizations to 515,000 children since its inception; the
	program is supported by the Caring For Children Foundation of
	Texas and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas; and
	WHEREAS, Immunizing children is one of the most direct,
	simple, and inexpensive ways to build healthier futures for
	medically underserved families in Texas, yet one in four children
	in the state go without the immunizations needed to lead a
	healthy, happy life due to financial or logistical constraints;
	and
	WHEREAS, The Care Van Program, which uses a fleet of 10
	specialized vans, has served children in Austin, Houston, San
	Antonio, El Paso, Abilene, San Angelo, Amarillo, Wichita Falls,
	and the Dallas and Fort Worth area; and
	WHEREAS, The Care Van Program is more than a job for its
	founder and manager; for Barbara Adamson, it is a labor of love; a
	compassionate and caring individual, she is a cancer survivor, a
	community volunteer, and an exemplary role model; her dedication
	and leadership have made a real difference in the lives and
	futures of thousands of her fellow citizens, and she is most
	deserving of legislative recognition; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd
	Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby commend Barbara Adamson
	for her commitment to protecting the health of children and her
	success with the Care Van Program and extend to her best wishes
	for the future; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
	her as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.

	Carona
