Project Renewal is building a new supportive housing project in the Bronx to provide housing and services for 105 formerly homeless individuals living with mental illness or recovering from addiction. The project includes two residential wings around a central courtyard, with studio apartments for homeless adults and a dormitory for men recovering from addiction. It will offer on-site psychiatric care, substance abuse treatment, job training, and case management. Project Renewal is expanding its affordable housing programs to help meet the high demand for services from homeless and low-income New Yorkers.
An anonymous call was made to the child abuse hotline 9 days before an 8-year-old girl was found dead in her home, but the call was never linked to the family's history with child services and no action was taken. The commissioner of the Department of Children and Families acknowledged the mishandling and said an investigation is underway. Hundreds gathered at the beach for a moment of silence after officials ended the search for a 15-year-old boy who is presumed to have drowned.
The document summarizes the Fall 2007 issue of the Minnesota Plant Press newsletter of the Minnesota Native Plant Society. It discusses upcoming society meetings and field trips focused on plant identification outside of the growing season. It also summarizes a new project in Renville County to establish conservation easements to protect unique rock outcrops, compensating landowners for permanent protection. Additionally, it announces that longtime society member Welby Smith will receive the society's highest award for his founding role and decades of contributions to expanding knowledge of Minnesota's flora.
The document summarizes a talk given by a wetland biologist at a Minnesota Native Plant Society meeting. It discusses how plant communities can be used as indicators of wetland quality. The biologist's agency has developed an Index of Biological Integrity that uses multiple plant community metrics to assess wetland condition. The agency is now conducting a statewide survey to measure the overall condition of depressional marshes in Minnesota using this index. The survey aims to help track wetland status and trends over time.
The Minnesota Native Plant Society held its monthly meeting on June 20th. The main topic of discussion was the Chippewa National Forest's plan to expand off-highway vehicle access. The Society opposed the plan due to concerns about further spread of invasive plant species by OHVs. Invasive plants are already a major problem in the forest and have been identified as one of the top threats to US forests. OHVs can spread invasives long distances as seeds and soil stick to tires and are transported elsewhere. The meeting also provided society updates and information on upcoming events like a 2008 symposium on the North Shore highlands flora.
The document summarizes a talk given by Hannah Texler, a regional plant ecologist with the Minnesota DNR, about incorporating ecological principles into native plant restoration projects. She discusses four levels of ecology - landscape, plant community, species, and genetic - that should inform native plantings. At the landscape level, projects should connect habitat patches and provide wildlife corridors. At the plant community level, greater diversity of native plant species from a given community should be used. The talk aims to promote more successful, diverse and locally adapted native plant restoration projects.
This document provides information about an upcoming meeting of the Minnesota Native Plant Society (MNPS).

This document summarizes a presentation about the combined negative impacts of deer overpopulation and invasive European earthworms and slugs on Minnesota's hardwood forests. The earthworms consume the forest duff layer, exposing plant roots and causing widespread plant death. With fewer native plants, the deer population has a much higher impact through over-browsing, eliminating seedlings and remaining plants. Recovery is difficult due to changed soil conditions, different mycorrhizal communities, and high seedling mortality from invasive slugs. Previous research showed plant densities must be very high to "saturate" deer appetites, which is challenging to achieve under current conditions. The combination of deer and invasive species is having major cascading effects
The Sierra Club held a candidates' forum for the Kern County 2nd District Supervisorial race. The chapter is also looking for volunteers for the Executive Committee.

The document summarizes key findings from a report on the effects of parental incarceration on children in Pennsylvania. It notes that over 95,000 children in the state have an incarcerated parent. The report examines the trauma experienced by these children, including emotional distress, instability in caregiving, and in some cases neglect. It provides recommendations such as modifying arrest procedures, educating officials, and increasing support for affected children.
This document summarizes key concepts related to environmental justice. It defines environmental justice as "the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies." It notes that environmental justice stems from the intersection of civil rights and environmentalism and focuses on addressing the disproportionate environmental impacts experienced by marginalized communities. Factors like economic resources, social capital, and structural discrimination can influence exposure to environmental hazards as well as health outcomes.
Treatment Of Depressed Mothers To Depressed Childrenguestcb5107
This pilot study examined the feasibility of treating depressed mothers who brought their depressed children for treatment. Nine mothers completed a 12-week treatment of interpersonal psychotherapy. Both mothers and children showed improvements in depressive symptoms and social functioning over the course of treatment based on evaluations at weeks 0, 6, and 12. Improvement in maternal depression was associated with improved social functioning in children, though not reductions in child depressive symptoms. However, engaging depressed mothers in their own treatment when they come to the clinic for their child's treatment was difficult.
Crystal Fitzgibbon suffered an acute stroke at age 26 that paralyzed her right side and rendered her unable to speak. She was given the clot-busting drug Tenecteplase, which was being trialled against the standard drug Alteplase. Within 24 hours, Crystal regained movement and speech in what doctors called the "Lazarus effect." Studies showed Tenecteplase helped more patients achieve major neurological improvement within a day compared to Alteplase. The successful trial of Tenecteplase provides hope for more effective stroke treatment.
This document summarizes a presentation given by Regina Holliday about her late husband Fred's experience with the healthcare system. It describes how Fred was in constant pain for months but was sent home from ERs without a diagnosis. When he was finally diagnosed with tumors, the oncologist left for 4 days without leaving contact information. Regina turned to social media for help and advice from experts, getting more information that way than from Fred's local hospital. Fred ultimately passed away from kidney cancer. Regina advocates using art and stories from patients' perspectives to promote more patient-centered care.

She advocates for greater patient access to medical records and meaningful use of health data to improve patient outcomes and safety.
Morbid and Mortal Inequities among Indigenous Peoples during the COVID-19 Pan...AmyAlberton1
The COVID-19 pandemic has illuminated gross racialized health inequities and injustices (Mackey et al., 2021). Evidence of the widespread and harmful impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic across diverse populations in Canada and the United States of America (USA) is voluminous (Clark et al., 2021; Mateen et al., 2020; Wendt et al., 2021). While the pandemic has revealed the much greater relative health risks experienced by racialized/ethnic people, the primary and synthetic evidence thus far has focused primarily on Latinx and Black people (Mackey et al., 2021). To date, there has been a relative lack of primary study and a complete absence of synthetic study of the relative morbid and mortal COVID-19-related risks experienced by Indigenous peoples (Douglas et al., 2021; Waldner et al., 2021).
This rapid review, the first synthetic study of Indigneny-COVID-19 inequities in North America, hypothesized certain Indigenous protections based upon Indigenous cultural strengths and certain risks based upon Indigenous peoples’ long histories of structural violence in North America. First, the pooled relative risk of COVID-19 among Indigenous peoples compared with otherwise similar non-Indigenous people was statistically and practically significant, indicating that Indigenous peoples were two-thirds more likely to be infected or die with COVID-19 as the primary or contributing cause of death (RR = 1.65). Second, Indigenous peoples’ risk of death (RR = 2.45) was significantly greater than their risk of infection (RR = 1.40), Indigenous peoples being about one and a half times as like to become ill with COVID-19 and two and a half times as likely to die as a result. Pre-existing, chronic health conditions secondary to lifetime structural violence exposures were likely responsible for the much worse mortal outcomes among Indigenous peoples. Third, despite long histories of oppression, providing Indigenous peoples with every reason to mistrust governments, their vaccination uptake rate was on par with that of non-Indigenous people, who were primarily non-Hispanic White people (RR = 1.02).
This rapid review provided evidence that inequalities exist among Indigenous and non-Indigenous people on COVID-19 related outcomes. Consistent with their lifetime exposures to discrimination and structural violence (Alberton, 2020), Indigenous peoples seemed clearly to be at relatively grave risk of having the most serious and deadly COVID-19 infections. However, consistent with cultural strengths theory, COVID-19 infection occurrences and vaccination uptake seemed much more equitably distributed with certain Indigenous people in some places even demonstrating significant protective advantages over non-Hispanic White people.
AIDSTAR-One Public Sector Response to Gender-based Violence in VietnamAIDSTAROne
Gender-based violence (GBV) is widely recognized as both a cause and a consequence of HIV infection.

Here are some key points to consider for improving HRM effectiveness through organizational structure:
- Define clear roles and responsibilities. Ensure all HR staff understand their specific duties to avoid duplication or gaps in responsibilities.
- Implement a structure that facilitates communication and collaboration. For example, have regular cross-functional meetings to discuss initiatives.
- Empower line managers to make HR-related decisions at the local level when appropriate. This decentralizes some functions while keeping senior HR oversight.
- Evaluate the current structure periodically and be open to change as needs evolve. Structures that were effective in the past may no longer fit current business realities.
- Consider centralizing common transactional HR functions like payroll, benefits administration for efficiency. But

Identifies barriers to vaccine uptake and analyzes solutions used by healthcare workers to increase vaccination rates. The presentation ends with identifying the role of pharmacists in immunizing this population.
This document contains several articles related to suicide and legal/ethical issues surrounding suicide. It discusses research finding a link between cosmetic surgery and suicide, a college being found negligent after a student was murdered by a mentally ill man, a psychiatrist being found negligent after a former patient killed two people, appeals court overturning the negligence verdict for the psychiatrist, criticism of the number of student suicides at MIT, and the suicide of a university chancellor.
This study examined college students' attitudes towards mental illness portrayed in media. It hypothesized that 1) exposure to mental illness in media correlates with attitudes, 2) empathy correlates with media influence, 3) positive film portrayals correlate with recall, and 4) exposure correlates with recall of films featuring mental illness. Surveys assessed knowledge, attitudes, empathy, and film recall. Results supported all hypotheses, showing relationships between media exposure, attitudes, empathy and recall of positive portrayals. However, students lacked understanding of specific illnesses. The study concluded that personal experience with mental illness leads to better recall of positive media portrayals.
This document provides answers to common questions about stairlifts from 101 Mobility.
