MONTGOMERY — Gov. Kay Ivey has awarded $2.3 million to ensure support for children and adult victims of abuse, sexual assault and other types of cruelty in multiple counties in Alabama. The governor awarded the grants to six agencies throughout Alabama that provide critical services for assault and abuse victims. The offenses range from human trafficking, domestic violence and child abuse.
MONTGOMERY – Governor Kay Ivey on Tuesday issued the following statement:
“It is with profound sadness I share the news that former State Finance Director Kelly Butler has passed away after his valiant fight against ALS. Kelly was the epitome of a public servant and a good man. For those who knew Kelly, you know this about him. For those Alabamians who did not have a chance to personally know Kelly, you can be assured he likely touched your life in some way.
