This document discusses anticipated changes to community-based services and education over the next 15 years. It notes that the population is aging rapidly and becoming more diverse. Technology will change how services are delivered through new methods of interaction, content delivery, and accessibility devices. Funding challenges will remain constant even as needs grow. Laws and regulations will continue to determine funding and quality standards, requiring advocacy from those who work with seniors. The conclusion emphasizes that an aging population should not be viewed negatively, but as an opportunity for knowledge sharing and intergenerational support through community involvement.

Learning Session 2-8 Young Adults and Reentry

Region 1 Employment and Training Administration

Young Adults involved in the criminal justice system face additional barriers to success. Often these young adults return to their communities with little or no work experience and limited educational attainment. These young people also often lack the skills to effectively navigate multiple complex systems as they try to get their lives back on track. This workshop will provide information about service delivery strategies designed to maximize the potential for success for young adults with criminal histories. Hear about two local Massachusetts program models that effectively address the unique needs of young adult offenders as they reintegrate.

This document discusses community organizing efforts to support the Long Beach Black Infant Health Program. Focus groups identified key locations for outreach like transportation hubs, schools, churches and stores. Women enrolled for the social support, friendship with others in similar situations, and the familial approach of staff. Partnerships with black businesses, organizations, and health providers aim to expand outreach and referrals. A #BlackSummer campaign was proposed to raise awareness, build community, celebrate blackness, and support black-owned businesses through a resource fair, family activities, and social media health messages.

robine

The document discusses issues with New Zealand's youth justice system in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including underperformance, lack of focus and consistency, and outdated facilities. In response, reforms were implemented, such as dedicated youth justice teams, new residences, and a renewed emphasis on rehabilitation. Challenges remain around recidivism rates, disproportionate Maori representation, and inter-agency collaboration. The strategic direction is to reduce reoffending through outcome-focused services and smarter partnerships between youth justice and other organizations.

NACDD: Year One Highlights for AIDD Supporting Families Project

National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities

The document provides an overview of efforts by several states - Connecticut, Missouri, Tennessee, and Washington - to support families who have members with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) through the lifespan as part of a national Community of Practice. The states are working on initiatives like reframing their messaging to focus on supporting families, developing tools and materials to help families navigate services, and enhancing cross-agency collaboration to provide integrated supports. They are also gathering input from families to inform their efforts. The Developmental Disabilities Councils in these states are involved in the work by providing resources, disseminating information, and engaging stakeholders.

Race and Education 2012

EqualitySW_Legacy

The document discusses how the changing political landscape in the UK under the coalition government may negatively impact racial equality and opportunities for black and minority ethnic (BME) students. Key changes include public spending cuts, welfare reforms, and a shift towards localism that could reduce protections for marginalized groups. There are also concerns about reduced enforcement of equality laws and a diminished focus on race under the new "equality strategy". The implications for BME students may include fewer support services, more barriers to education and employment, and less safe and inclusive environments in schools and colleges. The document advocates for colleges to take proactive measures to promote inclusion and support for BME students.

MADI

Public Health England

The document evaluates a Multi-Agency Drop-in Service (MADI) located in schools in Bury, England. The MADI aims to improve student wellbeing and development through early intervention and providing access to various social services. The evaluation found that the MADI had a positive impact and was well-run through strong leadership and management. However, its long-term sustainability faces challenges around consistent funding and agency commitment. The report provides recommendations to address sustainability and further strengthen the MADI model.
