DR JON GOLDIN - THE RISKS AND BENEFITS OF SOCIAL MEDIA ON THE MENTAL HEALTH O...
The Internet and social media now impact almost every aspect of people’s lives and have altered social interactions and ways of being. Many young people use the Internet and social media in a way that is detrimental to their mental health, with the potential of developing symptoms traditionally associated with addiction. Despite this desperation to use the Internet and social media, a recent study showed that the more time young people spend on social media, the less happy they feel about everything except their friendships. More speci cally, they felt less happy about school and school work, their appearance, their family, and life in general. It appears that girls are more a ected than boys. It is important however that we don’t blame the medium but the message. There are positive messages out there on social media, which can help young people with mental health di culties but also some very harmful messages and practices can be found online too. This talk will explore ‘The risks and bene ts of social media on the mental health of adolescents’.

Effects Of Social Media – Negative Side
Here are 5 negative effects of social media. For positive effects, visit the link: http://vkool.com/effects-of-social-media/.
Social media have a lot of positive effects on marketing and connecting people around the world. However, there are also some disadvantages of social media. Keep reading for more information.
1. A Fall Sense Of Connection
According to many researches, social networking sites such as Twitter and Face-book help connect many people, but they also make it hard for users to distinguish their truly meaningful relationships in their real life. Though there are more and more casual relationships built through social media, more and more people are feeling lonely in the real world. When people spend their free time on social networking sites, there is less time for face-to-face conversations with relatives, friends, and neighbors. This means that their real connections weaken.
2. Lower Productivity
A lot of people seem to addict to social networking sites, and unable to work at 100% of their working productivity. For example, people are eager to log in their Face-book or Twitter to see what their friends share each day, even when they are at work. After logging in, they find so many things to view and read there that they cannot get back to work quickly. This reduces their productivity at work.
3. Self-Esteem Affected
Comments on social networking sites can negatively affect users’ self-esteem. When people make a comparison with their friends in their network, they may find out that they do not have as many likes or comments as their friends do; as a result, they will feel less confident.
4. Cyber-Bullying
Cyber-bullying is one of the top negative effects of social media. Comments with offensive words can mentally attack the victims, and leave bad emotional scars. Some victims decided to suicide as the only way to finish the pain caused by cyber-bullying. Cyber-bullying has also made many teenagers depressed. Some of them chose to stop going to school as an escape. Some even dare not go out due to deep emotional hurt caused by words in comments.
5. Distraction
When people spend too much time checking updated statuses on social networking sites, they cannot focus on their daily tasks. Facebook and Twitter are continually updated with new statuses which really attract users. This causes a big distraction from study, work, or family tasks. A student who is addicted to Facebook may not complete his homework. A mother who spends too much time on social networking sites may not fulfill the duty with her children. A staff, who spends too much time on Twitter or Facebook may not complete his tasks at work.
Besides many positive effects, social media has some negative effects. People should use social media wisely to get their advantages, and avoid or minimum their negative effects. Users should use social media as means of communication or work rather than being addicted to them.

Britain also improved relations with the USA and formed an alliance with Japan in 1902 focused on the Far East.

However, German actions, including attempts to disrupt the entente with France during the First Moroccan Crisis of 1905-1906, contributed to Britain drawing closer to France as concerns about Germany grew.

It costs $17.28 billion annually, administered by states but funded 80% by the federal government. States must meet work requirements to receive block grants and can only provide cash assistance for up to 6 months to encourage employment. The program was controversial but has not been modified since inception.

Food Assistance and Nutrition Research Small Grants Program ...
This document summarizes the key role that child care assistance programs play in helping low-income parents find and maintain employment. It outlines how federal and state funding for these programs grew substantially after welfare reform in 1996, allowing more families to receive assistance. However, funding has declined since 2001 due to budget shortfalls, forcing many states to cut eligibility and create waiting lists. As a result, many low-income working families are struggling without adequate child care support.
Michigan EBT
The document discusses changes to Michigan's food assistance program requirements to align with federal guidelines. Specifically, it outlines that college students will no longer be exempt from work requirements to receive benefits and will need to work at least 20 hours per week, care for children, or have a physical or mental disability. This is an issue because many college students rely on food assistance and believe they deserve the benefits as they work towards becoming productive members of society. Supporters of the change argue it makes the program guidelines consistent and only helps those truly in need by meeting income and work criteria like other recipients.
Federal Child Welfare Policy Update
The document provides an overview of recent federal child welfare policy and legislation. It discusses the Preventing Sex Trafficking and Strengthening Families Act of 2014 which aims to address child sex trafficking, promote permanency, and allow for normalcy for foster youth. It also summarizes proposals from the President's 2016 budget, Senator Wyden regarding prevention services, and Senator Hatch related to reducing congregate care. The document analyzes implementation opportunities and challenges of the new laws and policies.

Ghost wrote an op-ed for two child care activists -- one an early childhood educator and mom in New Mexico; the other a mom advocate in Michigan -- to share their stories and connect the issue to the upcoming 2020 election.
The farm bill 2013 stl food bank
The Farm Bill is comprehensive legislation that authorizes funding for federal food and farm policies and is renewed every five years. It aims to ensure a stable food supply, protect farmers, provide nutrition assistance, support rural development and conserve resources. The current bill includes the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly food stamps), which helps low-income Americans. SNAP is the largest hunger relief program and helps many out of poverty. The 2012 Farm Bill proposals in Congress would cut SNAP funding and restrict eligibility, potentially removing benefits for millions of individuals. Advocates urge supporting and protecting SNAP.

This document discusses Michigan's food assistance program and recent changes to eligibility requirements. It provides background on the federal Food Assistance Program (FAP) and how benefits are administered through Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards. Currently, college students in Michigan qualify for food assistance but new policies will require recipients to care for children, be unfit for work, work at least 20 hours per week, or participate in job training. While some students argue they deserve the assistance, others believe the program should only help those most in need as it uses federal funds. The Michigan Department of Human Services will enforce the new work requirements starting in April.
TANF Presentation 3-29-2011
The document discusses changes to the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program in Washington D.C. It notes that as of April 1st, families receiving TANF benefits for over 60 months will see their benefit checks reduced. Exceptions are made for those with disabilities, child-only cases, and those receiving Supplemental Security Income. The poverty rate for black children in D.C. has risen dramatically in recent years to 43%, with 30,000 black children living in poverty as of 2009. Cutting TANF benefits now will only further perpetuate the cycle of poverty in the community.

Michigan EBT
The document discusses changes to Michigan's food assistance program that will no longer allow college attendance alone to qualify recipients for benefits. Supporters argue it aligns with the program's purpose of helping those in need and decreases waste, while opponents say some students will suffer without enough assistance from family. Statistics show around 20,000 of the 1.9 million recipients in Michigan may be impacted. The document examines perspectives on both sides and provides recommendations.
Federal Policy Update: Student Parent Support Symposium
Federal policy is helping student parents in several key ways, but more support is still needed. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) provide assistance for low-income families, but both face cuts. Pell Grants and tax credits help with college costs, but Pell Grants face a long-term funding shortfall. Child care assistance is underfunded despite high unmet need. Immigration reform and workforce programs also impact student parents if reauthorized properly. Upcoming budget battles and the "new normal" of austerity pose challenges to maintaining support for low-income student parents.
AHS - 6 Federalis TANF
The document discusses the history and goals of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. It notes that TANF replaced Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) in 1996 and aims to promote job preparation, work, and marriage while preventing out-of-wedlock pregnancies. It provides details on state implementation of TANF, funding amounts, debates around the program, and key facts about TANF administration and participation.
Domestic Policy
Three-strikes laws passed in the 1980s require life imprisonment for those convicted of a third felony. California saw reduced crime rates after passing such laws. However, they can also lead to over-criminalization, as marijuana offenders are 4 times more likely to be arrested. Poverty levels are determined based on the cost of a basic food plan, though new groups facing poverty include female-headed households. Nearly half of African American female-headed households live in poverty. While some claim only 600,000 are homeless, organizations working with the homeless estimate the number is between 2-3 million. Social Security and Supplemental Security Income help address poverty, though Social Security is projected to fall short starting in 2042.
ReviPoverty policy issues
This document summarizes the history of poverty in America from the industrialization era to modern times. It discusses how poverty is measured using thresholds and guidelines, and analyzes poverty levels and the impact of government assistance programs. Specific agencies that help the poor are also outlined, including how healthcare reform like the Affordable Care Act and Promise Zone initiatives aim to reduce poverty rates. Wealth inequality in the U.S. is significant as shown in an included video.
Pregnancy and Government Grants Powerpoint Presentation
The document discusses South Africa's child support grant program. It provides details on eligibility requirements, the application process, and payment methods. Most recipients are women, as statistics show many female-headed households have no wage earners. While some initially opposed the grants, research found no evidence it increased teen pregnancies or unemployment. Extending the program to older children is now being considered.

It provides recommendations for actions at the state level, such as implementing the Fostering Connections Act, ensuring housing is in transition plans, and building partnerships to create affordable housing opportunities.
Poverty Policy Issues
This document discusses poverty policy issues and provides information on defining and measuring poverty, the history of poverty in America, government assistance programs that help the poor, health insurance programs, and wealth inequality in the United States. It outlines poverty thresholds used to determine poverty status, examines poverty rates over time and their impact on public policy, and lists federal, state, and local agencies that provide aid and social services to low-income individuals and families.
