The document discusses the future of community-based services and education over the next 15 years. It predicts that services will need to be evaluated and modified to meet citizens' changing needs. More government funding will be required to serve diverse populations and an aging society. Various groups may be underserved, including low-income, Hispanic, LGBT, and minority communities. Laws and programs can help address the needs of different groups and provide lifelong learning opportunities. Stakeholders will need to collaborate to ensure community services and education programs are supported.

The changing landscape of rural healthcareRich_Tyler
Rural Americans make up roughly 20 percent of the population, and yet very few rural towns have complete access to health care facilities that the rest of the country enjoys. There have been many developments in health care delivery in the U.S. over the past few years. And just recently, more emphasis is placed on delivery sites in rural communities.
“A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It's about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role.”

What do People want, need and expect from public services?
Maintaining a focus on citizens has been challenging in an environment dominated by fiscal crisis and pressure for cuts and quick fixes. Yet without properly understanding what the public want and value, and how they relate to today’s services, it will be impossible to design services for tomorrow that fit the lives they live, and develop the capabilities they need to fulfil their aspirations.
This report is part of our ongoing work to articulate a citizen-centric vision for public services. In it, Ipsos MORI present their data on public attitudes and aspirations, providing a comprehensive overview of the state of current public opinion.
Their evidence should be of interest to anyone concerned about the meaning and impact of public services today, and their democratic reform in the future. It shows that the public:
• want public services to be based on notions of the public good, rather than just what’s good for me;
• understand the public good largely in terms of universalism, with equality of access to benefits;
• are prepared, with prompting, to consider types of equality that relate to outcomes rather than access;
• see more potential in playing a strong adult role in public service development locally rather than nationally; and • struggle to see a compelling or urgent case for reforming public services to cope with economic pressures and social changes, and divide evenly on whether to support service cuts or tax rises.

Mission, Vision, Values, and Ethics Statements
Mission Statement: “To build a healthier society through protection, empowerment and establishment of a sense of collectivism.”
Vision Statement: “We seek to establish a humane community free of violence and discrimination by improving the quality of life.”
Values Statement: “Our operations are inspired by a spirit of collectivism and harmonious living. We strive to uphold the greatest levels of ethical uprightness by training or employees to observe workplace diversity and remaining motivated.”
Ethical Statement: “We subscribe to the clinical code of ethics by mandating our employees to desist from conflict, uphold rational decision making and display the best of conduct within and beyond the agency.”
Addressing the Main Issue
This human services agency will strive to provide assistance in terms of welfare, rehabilitation, housing and accessibility to health for those who need critical medical attention. These are problems that are irregularly distributed in the targeted population due to disparities in the economy. The agency will strive to address these problems by using three main approaches. The first approach is to directly help the victims through well-trained employees in the agency. Through a well-designed recruitment process, the agency will seek to hire competent individuals who will be able to advance the agency’s objectives and goals directly to members of the community. This will help to address a greater proportion of the problems targeted by the agency.
The second approach is to use affiliated institutions to make specific services accessible to victims within the society. For example, patients who require medical attention but are not privileged or are not able to afford these services will be facilitated by the agency to get help from healthcare institutions affiliated to the agency. Additionally, for families which cannot get sufficient food to support their siblings, the agency will coordinate with government food provision programs to ensure that these families are considered and fed. The nature of partnerships in this case will be determined by the type of problem the agency is trying to correct or address. The third approach will involve sensitizing the community and members of the society to assist in different ways to support the court5se of the agency or cultivate the spirit of collectivism (Schmid, 2004). This agency will utilize the society as a potential source of resources and a tool to nurture the spirit of collectivism that will ensure people help each other in addressing the target problems.

CULTURAL ANALYSIS
In carrying out the qualitative research analysis, I used various qualitative design methods such as the use of questionnaires, interviews, and observation to collect data from different communities or races. For this entire process of data collection, it involved 50 participants from different race and communities. Firstly, the questionnaires were used to collect the data which had both open and closed questions. Through the use of the questionnaires helped in hiding the identity of the person participating thus guaranteeing reliable answers to the questions asked. Furthermore, the participants were also interviewed to explain what are the challenges facing the children at their early ages. There are two types of interviews that were conducted, namely: face-to-face interview and group interview. Moreover, the observation is another data collection method that I used in finding out the challenges facing all children from different communities. According to the findings, they showed that a large number of children are unable to read and there are different solutions that were proposed by the participants. After conducted analysis on the findings, it is shown that there is need to start a youth program which main goal will be helping the children to read since after observation I discovered that most of the children in different are truly do not know how to read. Furthermore, in terms of membership, most of the participants were willing to participate in the youth program and become the members to facilitate the entire process of offering services to the children at their reading level.
The public funding is a unique resource system which does not distribute according to different communities, but it is offered by the state government to facilitate social and economic development (Wilson, 2013). The public funding will aid in facilitating the youth program since it a non-profit group that aims at solving the social problem experienced. This unique resource system will improve the society since it will make sure that the number of children unable to read very well is reduced. This resources system will have a positive impact on the community since it aligns with a plan of government agencies to reform the community or society.
The diversity of the culture can have an effect on the collaboration process because of different values from different communities. In this case, it means that the black community will have its own unique values compared to the Whites. Thus, the way Whites take things may not be the same way Blacks takes things. In addition, there is this issue of superiority and inferiority that may affect the collaboration (Stahl et al., 2010). For instance, Whites may feel are more superior than Blacks. This kind of feeling will ultimately ruin the entire collaboration process. There is no ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Outlook of community-based services and
education up to 15 years from now
Fifteen years from now, services will have to be
evaluated and amended to meet the needs of
citizens.
Funding will need to be allocated to serve all
ethnicities, cultures, and locations in the country.
The aging population is increasing, therefore more
government money needs to be allocated for
education and community based services.

Services Regulation: What You Need To
Know", 2014).
4. Possible funding scenarios
Applying for federal grants
Providing proposals to companies.
Networking with established
businesses.
Locating people that can be donors.
Fundraisers ("Seeking Future Funding", n.d.).
5. The influences of diversity and
the law.
There are several diverse groups that will be
represented. The groups may be low income,
Hispanic, LBGT, minorities, and the aging
population.
The law can create programs that will address the
needs of each diverse group.
Legislation can create programs that will assist
populations with life-long learning opportunities
that will enhance their lives as well as make them
more productive citizens (Theodori, 2014).
6. Conclusion
The executive, judicial and legislative
branches of government, as well as
the American citizens will need to
continue to collaborate so that
community based and education
programs can continue to thrive in our
society.
