Delegate Richard “Rich” Anderson is once again accepting applicants to his “Future Delegate” program.
Here’s more in a press release:
The office of Virginia State Delegate Richard L. Anderson (R, VA-51) has announced that the Prince William County legislator will host his fourth annual “51st House District Future Delegate Program” at the Virginia State Capitol in Richmond during the months of January and February 2016.
The program is open to students from grades 7 through 12. They may be enrolled in any public or private school, to include home-schooled students. The 51st House District stretches from Occoquan Town westward through Lake Ridge, the county portions of Manassas, and into Brentsville and Nokesville.
All students are welcome to participate, regardless of party affiliation or views. The Future Delegate Program focuses solely on the legislative process and exposes students and families to legislative life in Richmond. The goal is for students to return home after a full day in Richmond with a greater appreciation for the public policy process. Anderson’s goal is to motivate students to pursue public service as their chosen profession as an adult. The intent is that only one or two students will participate each day, so that they experience quality time with their elected representative and are able to focus fully on the legislative process.
Anderson says, “I look forward to welcoming another 35 students to Richmond in January and February. I want young people, who are the next generation of leadership in our Commonwealth, to experience Virginia’s legislative process first-hand. I want them to seriously consider a career in public service.”
The program is managed by Anderson’s 51st House District Neighborhood Coordinator, Ms. Kristina Schnack Kotlus, who can be reached at kristina.delegateanderson@gmail.com. An information session was held on November 30th, but the online application can be accessed by going to https://goo.gl/forms/VqPf5x7Y7O.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
