The document provides an overview of Joe Neigel's presentation on creating thriving children through applying strategies informed by research on adverse childhood experiences and developmental needs. The presentation discusses findings from the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study showing strong links between early life trauma and long-term health outcomes, and considers additional factors like brain nutrient deficiencies, lack of movement, and inadequate social reinforcement that contribute to difficulties. Neigel then examines low-cost strategies backed by evidence like using positive notes, praise, and mystery motivators that can positively influence school culture and protect children by meeting their developmental needs.

Self-esteem is defined as how one feels about oneself.1 It may be either high or low depending upon a personal assessment of self. Healthy self-esteem is essential for success in every area of life. It is one of the most dynamic variables in youth development.
Size of the Problem:
It has been observed that children experience a decline in self esteem during adolescence years which is a critical transition period for them. Girls experience this decline at age 12 whereas in boys the decline generally begins at age 14.2 Youth with high self-esteem consider themselves worthy, and view themselves as equal to others. Those low in self-esteem generally experience self-rejection, self-dissatisfaction, self-contempt, and self-disparagement. Direct estimates of the level of self-esteem in Kentucky youth are not available but there are some indirect indicators that can help us understand this problem in our young population.

Presentation at the National Prevention Network Conference on September 14, 2017
The percentage of individuals in the United States and NH with past year illicit drug dependence or abuse was highest among young adults between the ages of 18-25. A rapid assessment process was used to do a deeper dive to understand the substance use behaviors of young adults. And to ensure prevention strategies are culturally sensitive and relevant to the target populations, to help inform prevention efforts for early childhood and youth, and to establish baseline data to track implemented prevention efforts.
Themes: Community, physical environment, job opportunities and growth, communication approaches, generational differences, sense of hope or optimism, stress coping mechanisms, perception of substance misuse, consequences of substance misuse, and substance use
Key strategies: Academia/education, peer support, family and friends, key messages, and community resources
Now what? Next steps:
1. The Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services put out an RFP and will fund 11 of the 13 Regional Public Health Networks to implement young adult strategies (SBIRT; Employers; Peer leadership programs).
2. NAMI to adapt “Connect”, a youth-based suicide prevention train-the-trainer program: “Connect for Young Adults” (MH; suicide; AOD).
3. Develop and roll out a young adult social media campaign with a focus on binge drinking.
4. Second administration of the young adult assessment is being planned for 2019 which will provide important comparison data and indicate if the trends are moving in the right direction.

Literature Review
Ironically, homelessness itself a kind of mental torture which automatically creates distress in a person's mind and bitterness about life. A person without having shelter feels uncomfortable; unsatisfied with his life that he cannot feed his family, even the state's policies are not fair enough to support homeless families. Here, in this paper, we discuss child homelessness which is a great threat to child health in terms of mental distress and academic performance (Vostanis, 1998). In a recent survey, there were 1.4 million children experienced homelessness worldwide, about 75% of children experienced homelessness by doubling-up with other families. On the other hand, 15% of children were in shelters, hotels/motels percentage calculated as 7%, and those were who didn't have shelter to live were 4%. The data has been collected from 2016-17 survey regarding measuring the child homelessness in all over the world according to which appropriate measures could be taken to ensure the provision of shelters, homes, education to homeless children effectively and efficiently. The data mentioned above is being reported from two sources, i.e. school districts required to report based on the number of homeless students they serve. In contrast, others belong to the consensus of federally funded homeless shelters and temporary housing programs conducted by the U.S. Department of Housing and urban development.
Child Homelessness Statistics and Survey
Furthermore, the most important thing noticed during this survey is that overall child homelessness affects the mental health of the children and their academic performance. They do not feel comfortable while studying with 13-14 other family members, unsatisfied mind creates mental trouble and become the reason of destruction in overall academic performance. The explanations behind vagrancy in this get-together are extraordinary: many are overcomers of local violence, four and the get-together moreover consolidates uprooted individual families, generally in U.S. Homeless young people are on a very basic level more plausible than everyone, or assessment kids in stable housing, to have conceded development, six learning difficulties, seven and higher speeds of mental prosperity issues (social issues, for instance, rest agitating impact, eating issues, ill will, and overactivity, and energetic issues, for instance, despairing, anxiety, and self-harm).6,8–10 Such issues are not express to down and out families. They occur in various families living in trouble. They are related to threatening life events that rush vagrancy, for example, family breakdown, abuse, receptiveness to for ...

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

1. Recipes for Success Creating Thriving Children in the Classroom and the Community Presented by Joe Neigel North Everett Coalition September 27th, 2011
2. Our Goals Today Learn about the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study and how early life trauma influences behavior and health outcomes Consider some additional factors that contribute to difficulty in the classroom, the community and at home Examine how we can apply low and no-cost strategies to significantly influence a positive school culture, reduce classroom disruptions and protect our most valuable natural resource
3. Creating Our Futures Before we begin, let’s take two or three minutes to paint our futures… Warning: This is a time for idealism
11. The Adverse Experiences Child physical abuse Child sexual abuse Child emotional abuse Neglect Mentally ill, depressed or suicidal person in the home Drug addicted or alcoholic family member Witnessing domestic violence against the mother Loss of a parent to death or abandonment, including abandonment by divorce Incarceration of any family member
13. Counting ACES The ACE Score is the number of categories of adverse childhood experiences to which a person was exposed. The ACE Study found that the number of categories, not necessarily the frequency or severity of the experiences within a category, determine health outcomes across the population as a whole.
17. Graded Relationships There is a strong “dose/response” relationship between a person’s ACE score and their number of resulting outcomes and health problems. Dose/Response is a measure of “cause and effect.”
19. Smoking We can see the cause and effect relationship ACEs create in people and in populations.
20. Adult Alcoholism We can see the cause and effect relationship ACEs create in people and in populations.
21. Intravenous Drug Use We can see the cause and effect relationship ACEs create in people and in populations.
22. Chronic Depression We can see the cause and effect relationship ACEs create in people and in populations.
23. Attempted Suicide We can see the cause and effect relationship ACEs create in people and in populations.
24. ACEs lead to risk factors for the 10 most common causes of early death in the United States
25.
26. With an ACE score of 4 or more, the majority of adults have multiple risk factors for these diseases, or the diseases themselves.
27. Prepare yourself for this – The things we identify as risk factors (obesity, illicit drug use, promiscuity) are, in fact, effective short-term devices – coping mechanisms – for the trauma experienced as a child
28.
29.
30. In this case, it is a calculation used by the CDC to estimate the proportion of a health outcome that is attributable to ACE
59. What Do Kids Eat Most of the Day? The alterations in brain chemistry that have resulted from our changing diet during the last 50 years contributes to trends of depression, bipolar disorder, autism, violence and academic problems.
75. Negative attention is like regular unleaded gasoline: it will do.Criticism and punishment reinforce negative behaviors, while praise and recognition reinforce positive behaviors. A child will behave in the manner that gets him the most attention! Think about how video games influence youth: young people spend hours in front of a screen for nothing more than electronic “atta boy” or a “you go girl.”
81. Kernels A kernel is the smallest unit of scientifically proven behavioral influence. They are the “active ingredients” of evidence-based programs. A kernel is indivisible; that is, removing any part makes it inactive. Kernels produce quick easily measured change that can grow into much bigger change over time. They can be used alone OR combined with other kernels to create new programs, strategies or policies. Combinations of Kernels are considered “behavioral vaccines.” “Planted” Kernels create a culture.
82. Picking Your Kernels for Planting There are over 100 evidenced-based kernels you can plant for school and community-level change.
83. Turtle Breathing “Turtle Breathing” is a technique for helping children with controlling anger. Some elementary teachers use this technique in conjunction with the scripted story, “Tucker Turtle Takes Time to Tuck and Think.” This technique: Reduces anxiety Reduces temper tantrums Increases resiliency Increases self-control
84. Turtle Breathing Technique Model remaining calm Teach the child the steps of how to control feelings and calm down Step 1: Recognize your feeling(s) Step 2: Think “stop” Step 3: Go inside your “shell” and take 3 deep breaths Step 4: Come out when calm and think of a “solution” Practice steps frequently Prepare for and help the child handle possible disappointment or change Recognize and comment when the child stays calm Involve families: teach the “Turtle Technique”
85. Adult to Youth Notes Notes from teachers to students recognizing them for a SPECIFIC action or behavior is demonstrated to help youth of all ages to: Do better at school Be more socially competent Reduce ADHD, aggression and problem behaviors Increases behaviors you want to see more of
87. Peer to Peer Notes Notes of praise written from one peer to another, then read aloud or posted to a classroom or hallway display is widely shown to: Improve school performance Improve adult/child interactions Improve organizational functioning Increases behaviors you want to see more of
89. Verbal Praise When a person receives specific, spoken recognition for engagement in a target act or behavior, it is widely demonstrated to: Improve school performance Improve adult/child interactions Improve organizational functioning Increase the frequency of the target behavior
90. Beat the Timer Beat the timer makes daily routines run smoother, reduces adult child conflict and reduces accidental attention to negative behavior. Research shows that this simple game: Increases compliance Increases accuracy and completion of academics
91. Beat the Timer Steps: Announce Beat the Timer Say how long the timer will be set for Say what behaviors are to beat the timer Announce the timer is about to begin Praise positive behavior while timer is ticking Celebrate success and occasionally reward
93. Auditory/Visual Signal for Transitions The attention kernel works for students and adults. It results in immediate reduction in transition time, increased academic engagement, reduced disruptive behavior, reduced aggression and bullying, reduced trauma response in traumatized people. Cost: Harmonica Steps: Blow the Harmonica Raise hand in peace sign Praise students who quickly train their eyes on you Make sure 95% of all students eyes on you BEFORE you give your next instruction Give transition instruction Recognize success and occasionally reward quick transitions
95. Mystery Motivator Also known as the “Premack Principle,” Granny’s Wacky Prizes, Prize Bowl and the Game of Life. Results in a reduction in deviant behavior across the lifespan, reduces problem behavior at school, increases desirable behavior in all age groups and reduces addiction Motivates youth and adults to do their best and improve Taps into “intrinsic” motivations Fosters self-regulation instead of excitement
96. Mystery Motivator Steps Participants selects prizes from a list that are appropriate to your situation, time of day, activities, etc. Randomly select when children win the game. Use the prizes for a very short time with a clear start and stop Rotate and freshen prizes Use student ideas and behaviors
97. Brain on the Ball Suitable for preschoolers through adults Sitting on therapy balls is shown to increase attention, improve academic achievement, reduces ADHD symptoms without medication and reduce disruptive behavior
98. Random Calling This kernel is sometimes referred to as “Ritalin on a Stick” and is proven effective by research. Start by putting the names of all the students in the classroom on separate sticks. Every few minutes, the teacher picks a stick randomly to call on student to answer a question, to help, or to do something that maintains attention, generates motor behavior and creates a response. Typically, the stick is put back into the container so that might drawn again, randomly at any given time. Random calling results in: Equality in participation. Increased attention will be paid to the lesson Increased academic performance Decreases in disruptive behavior
99. Pleasant Greeting w/ Physical Touch Also known as “handshakes.” Frequent friendly physical and verbal greetings impact social status and perceptions of safety and harm. It also affects behavior streams of aggression, hostility or politeness. Greetings are also a key topositively influencing school and classroom culture.
100. Positive Note Home for Inhibition When an adult sends a positive note home with a student for inhibiting an otherwise disruptive behavior, good things happen, particularly when a reward at home occurs in response. This strategy is demonstrated to reduce disruptive and aggressive behavior, problems at home and increases engagement at school.
101. The Bottom Line Meaningful change in agency culture begins on the front lines. If you need it, I personally give you permission to do what’s in your heart.
This presentation is a summation of evidence compiled by Dr. Robert Anda of the CDC and Dr. Vincent Filletti of Kaiser Permenente in Southern California, as well as research compiled by Dr. Dennis Embry.
Explain our goals for the day
Ask participants to take out their Creating Our Futures Handouts…
Review a few answers from the handout. This is the lead in to ACES.
Ask about the audience’s perception of the costs of child abuse and other adversity experienced during childhood. Most likely, many of the major ACE related outcomes will come up (but not all). That’s great, because we’re just trying verbalize here that we already know abuse is bad (many just don’t realize how comprehensively bad it is – and we’ll lead them to that).
The ACE Study was developed by doctors at Kaiser Permanente in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control in the 1990’s. The need for a study became apparent when Kaiser Permanente’s nationally renowned weight loss program recognized that its most successful clients (in terms of weight loss) were the ones who were dropping out of the program prematurely. The quest for answers ultimately led the researchers to focus on abuse and dysfunction experienced by their clients as children.
Pass out the ACE Score calculator (if you haven’t already). This is the tool developed by Dr. Anda and his colleagues at the CDC to determine the ACE score. Each question is requires a “Yes” or “No” answer. Each “Yes” answer equals one point. Each “No” answer equals zero points. A person’s ACE Score is the sum of all the yes answers.A person’s ACE Score is private. Ask participants to keep their own score in mind as you walk them through the rest of the presentation. It could be that they are persons of great resilience and so will disbelieve the rest of the presentation. Those folks should be reminded that although they were protected, look at others in their lives or family who were not as resilient (or fortunate).
The intuition of a modern sage… This is exactly what the ACE Study found.
It was found that the higher ones ACE score, the more likely a person was to have clusters of issues.
The Study established that ACEs lead to risk factors for the 10 most common causes of early death in the United States.
The ACE Pyramid illustrates the momentum adverse childhood experiences have in a person’s life. If you begin life with a foundation of adversity, without intervention some form of social, emotional or cognitive impairment will develop to enable a person to adapt to their adverse environment. The ACE Study show this will lead to the adoption of health risk behaviors (or an individual’s personal solution) in childhood and adolescence, which are typically risk factors for disease, disability and social problems, which ultimately lead to an early death. This is not the foundation you want if you plan to send your kids to an ivy league school, or even to graduate from high school!
According to the Family Policy Council, the Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (an annual phone based national health survey locally coordinated by various County Health Districts) projects this as the number of students with ACEs in the average classroom.
According to the initial ACE Study findings, average life expectancy is reduced by 19 years for a person with an ACE score of 6 or more.

If Americans ate the same about of linoleic acid (e.g., soybean oil, cotton see oil, corn oil) as the UK, Canada or Australia, homicides would drop from 30,000 to 2,000.
Mothers who eat NO fish during pregnancy, per US Government recommendations, have twice as many low IQ children as mothers who eat fish twice a week.
Ample research shows television viewing is directly linked to obesity, sexual promiscuity, teen pregnancy, violence and substance abuse.
