LICCs are local planning and advisory bodies for the local Early On system, established through the 56 ISDs in Michigan. LICCs mirror the mandated MICC in concept and allow for involvement of parents, agencies, organizations, and individuals necessary to develop and maintain a coordinated early intervention service system. The role of an LICC is to advise and assist the intermediate school district in matters related to Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Early Intervention Program for Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities: Final Regulations. In Michigan we call this program Early On. LICC activities include: fostering interagency collaboration and information sharing, disseminating public awareness and other materials that help caregivers identify potential developmental delays and disabilities, promoting parent and family involvement in all community activities, and encouraging community efforts supporting inclusion of children with special needs and their families.

Right help - Right Time, Safeguarding guidance from Birmingham CouncilThe Pathway Group
On the 14th February 2020, the Birmingham Safeguarding Children Partnership published the refreshed threshold guidance “Right Help, Right Time” – Delivering effective support for children and families in Birmingham. (Version 4 - February 2020).
This chapter examines the evolution of child welfare policy in the United States. Child protective services, foster care, adoption, and Head Start have been the focus of child welfare policy since the 1960s. The devolution of welfare to the states through the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) of 1996 has introduced questions about the prospects of poor children whose mothers are entering the labor market.

DEVELOPING A BALANCED PROJECT PORTFOLIO FOR A SOCIAL ENTERPRISE - THE CASE OF...Mariusz Andreasik
In the UK, Social enterprises are organisations whose existence is predicated on a social
model where both commercial and charitable sources of income are used to achieve social aims
such as education, the improvement of local communities and the relief of poverty. Such social
enterprises are in essence project based organisations which select, develop and operate projects in
accordance with their internal motivation to achieve social aims and goals. Social Enterprises tend
to be small and are often lacking in managerial skills such as project management, consequently
they often select projects based solely on social need or other arbitarially determined factors and
ignore other important criteria. This approach increases the likelihood of project overload and
unbalanced project portfolio development and may lead, over the longer-term, to strategic failure.
This research uses an expert survey to identify factors used by social enterprise managers to
determine project selection in order to develop the framework for an Analytic Hierarchical Process
approach to help structure decision making. These factors are then utilised to guide a small group of
social enterprise managers from the SIFE social enterprise organisation to score and rank three
specimen projects. These managers proved adept at using this approach and could analyse the
specimen projects effectively, however, they proved less able to select a suitable portfolio of
projects. This research, although small in scale, suggests that social enterprise managers can
improve their selection of suitable projects through clarification of the decision criteria to be used,
but find it considerably more difficult to develop a balanced portfolio of projects.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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.
