A McDowell County nonprofit that oversees Head Start faces loss of over 73000 loaned to Backyard Barbecue and could forfeit 700000 in federal funds and 13 jobs if the school board does not reinstate its agreement. CEO Clif Moore defends actions amid criticism from county school board member Kevin Wade while assets from the failed restaurant are aimed to cover debt.
