Transitional Services Transitional services are critical for helping children with exceptionalities to successfully complete their schooling and transition into adulthood. One of the more daunting transitions is from adolescence to adulthood because children no longer have regular access to the professionals they did during their school years. Using the Internet, research transitional services available in your state. The Center for Parent Information and Resources offers a helpful Web site for researching various services. You may also use other reliable sources. The details of the CPIR Web site are as follows: Center for Parent Information and Resources. (n.d.). State agencies addressing disabilities . Retrieved from http://www.parentcenterhub.org/repository/stateagencies/ Based on your research, address the following: Analyze the services a person with exceptionalities might require as he or she transitions through adolescence to adulthood. Evaluate the transitional services available for your state. Be sure to list the Web sites and names of the agencies providing these services. Compare these to the services you listed as being desirable for a person with exceptionalities transitioning to adulthood. Present an evaluation of the level of services available. Describe your search for information about transitional services. What kinds of difficulties did you encounter in locating the information you needed, if any? What sources did you use? How did you go about finding information? Provide your recommendations for locating services needed for people with disabilities as they transition into adulthood and addressing the challenges associated with gathering information. Write a 3–5-page paper in Word format. Be sure to include separate title and reference pages. ...

CROA WP Rollout 042215
This document summarizes research from multiple organizations on the use of alternative data for credit scoring. The research finds that alternative data like utility and telecom payment histories can help predict future delinquencies on financial accounts. Consumers with past issues paying alternative data sources but no problems with traditional credit accounts are identified as higher risk but invisible to lenders currently. Using alternative data could help more consumers become "credit visible" and eligible for credit opportunities. The document advocates that reforming laws like CROA could help promote the development and use of innovative credit scoring solutions that benefit both lenders and consumers.
CJ 550 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview
CJ 550 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of an organizational assessment and recommendations report.
The study of organizational assessment and program evaluation is a growing subfield within the field of criminal justice. As professionals in criminal justice
systems are often faced with dynamic environments and high expectations of performance, citizens demand accountability, and politicians challenge the
effectiveness of current policies. Many criminal justice organizations are employing assessment or policy and planning personnel to assess their organization's
effectiveness in meeting their stated goals or mission. These skills in assessment are vital to the development of leadership roles in police agencies, corrections,
and the court system. Given the contemporary issues surrounding the police use of force, prison escapes and violence, and court personnel overstepping their
roles, the performance of criminal justice organizations has been questioned by the general public, government, and media. It is vital that professionals
continuously assess a criminal justice organization’s performance and ensure the organization is meeting the goals of its established mission statement in a
dynamic and changing landscape, to build effective public service organizations.
In the summative assessment, you will assess the performance of a subdivision of a criminal justice organization from the provided case scenario. You will begin
by examining the structure and mission of your selected criminal justice organization to identify the specific goals and responsibilities of the subdivisions in
relation to the performance of the overall organization. Next, you will select a specific subdivision in the organization on which to base your performance
assessment. You will assess the effectiveness of the subdivision in reaching the organization’s established goals, utilizing measurement strategies to identify the
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to the organization. Based on your assessment, you will create recommendations for the organization to
improve its performance, as well as recommend communication strategies to distribute relevant information to the appropriate individuals within the
organization.
The project is divided into four milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Four, Five, and Seven. The final submission is due in Module Nine.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Analyze criminal justice organizational structures and policies for informing the development of methods to improve organizational performance
Determine appropriate organizational assessment strategies to acquire valid and reliable data for measuring the effectiveness of c ...
The Path to Customer-Centric Service
After a series of events that arguably damaged the reputation of the federal government’s customer service programs, in 2015 the Obama Administration announced its intention to overhaul public services to make them more customer-centric. Customer service factors heavily in the Digital Services Playbook, while the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has designated it a Cross-Agency Priority Goal, focusing on streamlining transactions, developing standards for high-impact services, and using technology to improve the customer experience.
However, leading consumer studies and public opinion surveys have found that there is still much to be desired from federal customer service. According to the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), for instance, federal customer service continues to lag behind the private sector standard.
To better understand customer service from the perspective of the federal workforce, evaluate the drivers and challenges to reform, and shed light on improvements currently underway, Government Business Council (GBC) and Deloitte conducted a survey of federal managers.

Long term care. Nursing Home and Subacute CareDuring the n.docx
Long term care.
Nursing Home and Subacute Care
During the nineteenth and the twentieth century, the term "nursing home" was synonymous with long-term care. Although today the exclusive use of the term "long-term care" is no longer accurate for nursing homes, it continues to remain and will not change easily. However, newer terms such as "nursing facilities" will help clarify the role of specific long-term care organizations and will differentiate them from others in the health care industry.
Subacute care is a relatively new but rapidly growing medical service in the continuum of care. Today, it is considered the fastest growing segment of the health care delivery system.
Research the online references such as EBSCOhost, SocINDEX, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), or PubMed for information on nursing facilities and subacute units and respond to the following questions:
Do you agree with the change in the terminology of nursing homes to nursing facilities? Why or why not? How do the terms relate with each other?
What impact does the historical perspective of the nursing home have on the stigma related to the quality of care?
How were nursing facilities developed? What have been the consequences of the change in terminology? Do you think the change in terminology will impact the quality of care in the future? If yes, how? If no, why?
What changes do you see nursing homes making in the future in order to keep up with the ever changing needs of the demographics of seniors?
What are subacute units? How did subacute care emerge? What are the strengths and limitations of the emergence of subacute care in long-term care as related to issues in levels of patients' acuity (various levels of nursing care based on the needs of patients)? Support your answer with relevant examples.
What is the impact of subacute care on the cost and quality of care? Do you think subacute care needs to be an integral component of hospitals, or should it be an integral part of the long-term care system? Provide a rationale for your answer.
Based on your learning about nursing home care and subacute care, compare their funding, staffing, regulation, and marketing
Assignment 2.
Long-Term Care Facilities: Services, Successes, and Failures

SOC-480: Program Evaluation Essay Checklist
It is essential for social workers to be able to evaluate an existing program within a community in order to develop a proposal for an effective project/program that fills the needs of a community. Remember, you are looking for a gap in services provided and a project/program solution as to how your proposal will fill that gap.
This assignment will help you learn this skill.

Nonprofit Financial Information OnlineIn the United States, the .docx
Nonprofit Financial Information Online
In the United States, the IRS requires that all 501c3 organizations file a tax return of sorts. The form nonprofit organizations are required to fill out is called a 990, and as public organizations, these forms are available to the public. Since 1999, organizations that file 990s have been required to provide copies to anyone who requests. Unfortunately, some nonprofits weren’t aware of this, and when asked, they sometimes refused to disclose what they perceived to be private information (although it is NOT).
To ensure that the information is available, the IRS makes information from 990s available through two outlets.
· Guidestar: www.guidestar.org
· National Center for Charitable Statistics: http://nccsdataweb.urban.org/FAQ/index.php?category=31
Guidestar is the place to look if you want a scanned copy of the complete tax return for a single organization. NCCS is a national repository for compiled data on the nonprofit sector in the U.S., but the datasets do not include all of the information from the 990s. While Guidestar makes scanned copies of individual tax returns available, NCCS makes the data from 990s available in a database format. In other words, if I were interested in contributing money to the World Wildlife Fund and wanted to look at their financial information, I’d probably go to Guidestar. However, if I wanted to conduct an analysis of all nonprofit environmental organizations, I’d go to NCCS.
While Guidestar and NCSS are great sources for data, they do not help in evaluating the financial status of an organization. A good online source of evaluating nonprofit organizations is CharityNavigator.org. What makes charity navigator particularly interesting is its use of financial ratios and rating system. The financial ratios for each of these factors is calculated from financial data on each organization’s 990.
Individual Paper 3: Financial Analysis
One technique used to assess an organization’s financial management is ratio analysis, which focuses on mathematical comparisons between or among accounts on a set of financial statements. While an organization’s size must still be taken into account, financial ratios allow a rough comparison of both large and small organizations. For example, looking at the expenses for Marist and Harvard isn’t particularly useful. However, looking at the ratio of program expenses to total expenses allows us to determine how much of each organization’s budget is used for administrative expenses versus mission critical programs. Ratios also represent benchmarks that organizations can use internally to analyze themselves over multiple years. Fortunately for us, IRS form 990 represents a quick-and-dirty set of financial statements for nonprofit organizations in the U.S.
There are many types of financial ratios for evaluating nonprofit organizations. For this assignment we will examine four types:

Business IssueRecent events have underscored the need to critica.docx
Business Issue
Recent events have underscored the need to critically, thoroughly and immediately examine the structure and mechanisms employed by the Counties and the State to protect and to provide critical services to children in need and increase accountability for child welfare agencies. There is not a consistent standardized approach for coordinating services and sharing information among State and local agencies.
Child protective services program is currently supported by three legacy systems, namely Central Registry, Services Information System and Child Placement and Payment System rather than a statewide integrated Case Management System. The three legacy systems have several limitations and do not meet the needs of the State or the Counties. This has led to gaps in information and driven many Counties to operate their own independent case management systems with little or no information sharing.
Limitations include:
· The State Central System lack near real-time information regarding child assessments. The lack of access to current information severely inhibits both entry and retrieval of information relevant to conducting family assessments. Current policy requires assessment information to be entered into the Central Registry once the assessment is completed. As a result valuable case information is not available in the state systems for 30 to 45 days after the initial involvement with the family.
· The State Central System tracks and retains minimal information of a child as a result, key attributes are not available. Examples of missing information include; a child’s caretaker’s personal identifiable information, child’s address details, etc.
· County case worker’s access to child and family information is limited to their individual’s county information.
· County case worker’s lack of mobile connectivity access to timely information is limited.
· The State Central System is based on individual child data. The ability to identify or link information on family members or members of the same household is non-existent or at best, limited only to certain cases and difficult to do. As a result, social workers do not have access to identify caretakers or inappropriate individuals living in the home using the state systems.
· There is no unique statewide identifier for a child to track their movement across counties. Consequently investigators and caseworkers are not able to consider the history of a child in a timely fashion while providing current services. Lack of near real-time information about a child puts them at risk for abuse and neglect and increases the chance of child fatalities. Each county assigns a child an id.
· While many counties operate automated case management systems, others use paper records and then record information from those records into the systems. This practice is antiquated, inefficient, and can result in incorrect keying as well as increasing the latency period between providing services ...

After reading the
Cybersecurity Act of 2015
, address the private/public partnership with the DHS National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC), arguably the most important aspect of the act. The Cybersecurity Act of 2015 allows for private and public sharing of cybersecurity threat information.
What should the DHS NCCIC (public) share with private sector organizations? What type of threat information would enable private organizations to better secure their networks?
On the flip side, what should private organizations share with the NCCIC? As it is written, private organization sharing is completely voluntary. Should this be mandatory? If so, what are the implications to the customers' private data?
The government is not allowed to collect data on citizens. How should the act be updated to make it better and more value-added for the public-private partnership in regards to cybersecurity?

CREC
The Grace Children's Foundation established the Children's Resource Exchange Center (CREC) in 1997 to connect children in need with medical resources. They are now developing a website to scale up the CREC model. The website will connect children, healthcare providers, and donors to facilitate the provision of care. It will allow children to search for available resources and enable communication between children and providers. The Foundation aims to launch the website through a pilot program connecting 100 Syrian children with U.S. medical care. They hope the website and expanded partnerships will exponentially increase the number of children served.

CROA WP Rollout 042215
This document summarizes research from multiple organizations on the use of alternative data for credit scoring. The research finds that alternative data like utility and telecom payment histories can help predict future delinquencies on financial accounts. Consumers with past issues paying alternative data sources but no problems with traditional credit accounts are identified as higher risk but invisible to lenders currently. Using alternative data could help more consumers become "credit visible" and eligible for credit opportunities. The document advocates that reforming laws like CROA could help promote the development and use of innovative credit scoring solutions that benefit both lenders and consumers.
CJ 550 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview
CJ 550 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of an organizational assessment and recommendations report.
The study of organizational assessment and program evaluation is a growing subfield within the field of criminal justice. As professionals in criminal justice
systems are often faced with dynamic environments and high expectations of performance, citizens demand accountability, and politicians challenge the
effectiveness of current policies. Many criminal justice organizations are employing assessment or policy and planning personnel to assess their organization's
effectiveness in meeting their stated goals or mission. These skills in assessment are vital to the development of leadership roles in police agencies, corrections,
and the court system. Given the contemporary issues surrounding the police use of force, prison escapes and violence, and court personnel overstepping their
roles, the performance of criminal justice organizations has been questioned by the general public, government, and media. It is vital that professionals
continuously assess a criminal justice organization’s performance and ensure the organization is meeting the goals of its established mission statement in a
dynamic and changing landscape, to build effective public service organizations.
In the summative assessment, you will assess the performance of a subdivision of a criminal justice organization from the provided case scenario. You will begin
by examining the structure and mission of your selected criminal justice organization to identify the specific goals and responsibilities of the subdivisions in
relation to the performance of the overall organization. Next, you will select a specific subdivision in the organization on which to base your performance
assessment. You will assess the effectiveness of the subdivision in reaching the organization’s established goals, utilizing measurement strategies to identify the
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to the organization. Based on your assessment, you will create recommendations for the organization to
improve its performance, as well as recommend communication strategies to distribute relevant information to the appropriate individuals within the
organization.
The project is divided into four milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Four, Five, and Seven. The final submission is due in Module Nine.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Analyze criminal justice organizational structures and policies for informing the development of methods to improve organizational performance
Determine appropriate organizational assessment strategies to acquire valid and reliable data for measuring the effectiveness of c ...
The Path to Customer-Centric Service
After a series of events that arguably damaged the reputation of the federal government’s customer service programs, in 2015 the Obama Administration announced its intention to overhaul public services to make them more customer-centric. Customer service factors heavily in the Digital Services Playbook, while the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has designated it a Cross-Agency Priority Goal, focusing on streamlining transactions, developing standards for high-impact services, and using technology to improve the customer experience.
However, leading consumer studies and public opinion surveys have found that there is still much to be desired from federal customer service. According to the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), for instance, federal customer service continues to lag behind the private sector standard.
To better understand customer service from the perspective of the federal workforce, evaluate the drivers and challenges to reform, and shed light on improvements currently underway, Government Business Council (GBC) and Deloitte conducted a survey of federal managers.

Long term care. Nursing Home and Subacute CareDuring the n.docx
Long term care.
Nursing Home and Subacute Care
During the nineteenth and the twentieth century, the term "nursing home" was synonymous with long-term care. Although today the exclusive use of the term "long-term care" is no longer accurate for nursing homes, it continues to remain and will not change easily. However, newer terms such as "nursing facilities" will help clarify the role of specific long-term care organizations and will differentiate them from others in the health care industry.
Subacute care is a relatively new but rapidly growing medical service in the continuum of care. Today, it is considered the fastest growing segment of the health care delivery system.
Research the online references such as EBSCOhost, SocINDEX, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), or PubMed for information on nursing facilities and subacute units and respond to the following questions:
Do you agree with the change in the terminology of nursing homes to nursing facilities? Why or why not? How do the terms relate with each other?
What impact does the historical perspective of the nursing home have on the stigma related to the quality of care?
How were nursing facilities developed? What have been the consequences of the change in terminology? Do you think the change in terminology will impact the quality of care in the future? If yes, how? If no, why?
What changes do you see nursing homes making in the future in order to keep up with the ever changing needs of the demographics of seniors?
What are subacute units? How did subacute care emerge? What are the strengths and limitations of the emergence of subacute care in long-term care as related to issues in levels of patients' acuity (various levels of nursing care based on the needs of patients)? Support your answer with relevant examples.
What is the impact of subacute care on the cost and quality of care? Do you think subacute care needs to be an integral component of hospitals, or should it be an integral part of the long-term care system? Provide a rationale for your answer.
Based on your learning about nursing home care and subacute care, compare their funding, staffing, regulation, and marketing
Assignment 2.

SOC-480 Program Evaluation Essay Checklist It is es.docx
SOC-480: Program Evaluation Essay Checklist
It is essential for social workers to be able to evaluate an existing program within a community in order to develop a proposal for an effective project/program that fills the needs of a community. Remember, you are looking for a gap in services provided and a project/program solution as to how your proposal will fill that gap.
This assignment will help you learn this skill.
Read chapter eleven in the textbook and use Step 2 of the SAMHSA Strategic Prevention Framework to guide you in evaluating the agency or program you select.
Select a local agency/program that addresses your selected social issue. View the agency/program’s website and call or visit the agency/program and use the checklist below to interview the manager:

Nonprofit Financial Information OnlineIn the United States, the .docx
Nonprofit Financial Information Online
In the United States, the IRS requires that all 501c3 organizations file a tax return of sorts. The form nonprofit organizations are required to fill out is called a 990, and as public organizations, these forms are available to the public. Since 1999, organizations that file 990s have been required to provide copies to anyone who requests. Unfortunately, some nonprofits weren’t aware of this, and when asked, they sometimes refused to disclose what they perceived to be private information (although it is NOT).
To ensure that the information is available, the IRS makes information from 990s available through two outlets.
· Guidestar: www.guidestar.org
· National Center for Charitable Statistics: http://nccsdataweb.urban.org/FAQ/index.php?category=31
Guidestar is the place to look if you want a scanned copy of the complete tax return for a single organization. NCCS is a national repository for compiled data on the nonprofit sector in the U.S., but the datasets do not include all of the information from the 990s. While Guidestar makes scanned copies of individual tax returns available, NCCS makes the data from 990s available in a database format. In other words, if I were interested in contributing money to the World Wildlife Fund and wanted to look at their financial information, I’d probably go to Guidestar. However, if I wanted to conduct an analysis of all nonprofit environmental organizations, I’d go to NCCS.
While Guidestar and NCSS are great sources for data, they do not help in evaluating the financial status of an organization. A good online source of evaluating nonprofit organizations is CharityNavigator.org. What makes charity navigator particularly interesting is its use of financial ratios and rating system. The financial ratios for each of these factors is calculated from financial data on each organization’s 990.
Individual Paper 3: Financial Analysis
One technique used to assess an organization’s financial management is ratio analysis, which focuses on mathematical comparisons between or among accounts on a set of financial statements. While an organization’s size must still be taken into account, financial ratios allow a rough comparison of both large and small organizations. For example, looking at the expenses for Marist and Harvard isn’t particularly useful. However, looking at the ratio of program expenses to total expenses allows us to determine how much of each organization’s budget is used for administrative expenses versus mission critical programs. Ratios also represent benchmarks that organizations can use internally to analyze themselves over multiple years. Fortunately for us, IRS form 990 represents a quick-and-dirty set of financial statements for nonprofit organizations in the U.S.
There are many types of financial ratios for evaluating nonprofit organizations. For this assignment we will examine four types:

Business IssueRecent events have underscored the need to critica.docx
Business Issue
Recent events have underscored the need to critically, thoroughly and immediately examine the structure and mechanisms employed by the Counties and the State to protect and to provide critical services to children in need and increase accountability for child welfare agencies. There is not a consistent standardized approach for coordinating services and sharing information among State and local agencies.
Child protective services program is currently supported by three legacy systems, namely Central Registry, Services Information System and Child Placement and Payment System rather than a statewide integrated Case Management System. The three legacy systems have several limitations and do not meet the needs of the State or the Counties. This has led to gaps in information and driven many Counties to operate their own independent case management systems with little or no information sharing.
Limitations include:
· The State Central System lack near real-time information regarding child assessments. The lack of access to current information severely inhibits both entry and retrieval of information relevant to conducting family assessments. Current policy requires assessment information to be entered into the Central Registry once the assessment is completed. As a result valuable case information is not available in the state systems for 30 to 45 days after the initial involvement with the family.
· The State Central System tracks and retains minimal information of a child as a result, key attributes are not available. Examples of missing information include; a child’s caretaker’s personal identifiable information, child’s address details, etc.
· County case worker’s access to child and family information is limited to their individual’s county information.
· County case worker’s lack of mobile connectivity access to timely information is limited.
· The State Central System is based on individual child data. The ability to identify or link information on family members or members of the same household is non-existent or at best, limited only to certain cases and difficult to do. As a result, social workers do not have access to identify caretakers or inappropriate individuals living in the home using the state systems.
· There is no unique statewide identifier for a child to track their movement across counties. Consequently investigators and caseworkers are not able to consider the history of a child in a timely fashion while providing current services. Lack of near real-time information about a child puts them at risk for abuse and neglect and increases the chance of child fatalities. Each county assigns a child an id.
· While many counties operate automated case management systems, others use paper records and then record information from those records into the systems. This practice is antiquated, inefficient, and can result in incorrect keying as well as increasing the latency period between providing services ...

What should the DHS NCCIC (public) share with private sector organizations? What type of threat information would enable private organizations to better secure their networks?
On the flip side, what should private organizations share with the NCCIC? As it is written, private organization sharing is completely voluntary. Should this be mandatory? If so, what are the implications to the customers' private data?

Children have always contributed to the total number of migrants crossing the southern border of the United States illegally, but in 2014, a steady overall increase in unaccompanied minors from Central America reached crisis proportions when tens of thousands of children from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras crossed the Rio Grande and overwhelmed border patrols and local infrastructure (Dart 2014).
Since legislators passed the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 in the last days of the Bush administration, unaccompanied minors from countries that do not share a border with the United States are guaranteed a hearing with an immigration judge where they may request asylum based on a “credible” fear of persecution or torture (U.S. Congress 2008). In some cases, these children are looking for relatives and can be placed with family while awaiting a hearing on their immigration status; in other cases, they are held in processing centers until the Department of Health and Human Services makes other arrangements (Popescu 2014).
The 2014 surge placed such a strain on state resources that Texas began transferring the children to Immigration and Naturalization facilities in California and elsewhere, without incident for the most part. On July 1, 2014, however, buses carrying the migrant children were blocked by protesters in Murrietta, California, who chanted, "Go home" and "We don’t want you.” (Fox News and Associated Press 2014; Reyes 2014).
A functional perspective theorist might focus on the dysfunctions caused by the sudden influx of underage asylum seekers, while a conflict perspective theorist might look at the way social stratification influences how the members of a developed country are treating the lower-status migrants from less-developed countries in Latin America. An interactionist theorist might see the significance in the attitude of the Murrietta protesters toward the migrant children.
Respond to the following questions in a 350-word essay using 12 point times new roman font double spaced: Given the fact that these children are fleeing various kinds of violence and extreme poverty, how should the U.S. government respond? Should the government pass laws granting a general amnesty? Or should it follow a zero-tolerance policy, automatically returning any and all unaccompanied minor migrants to their countries of origin so as to discourage additional immigration tha.

COMMUNICATION CLOSE-UP AT
Kaiser Permanente
kp.org (http://kp.org)
Delivering quality health care is dif�icult enough, given the complexities of technology, government regulations, evolving scienti�ic and medical understanding, and
the variability of human performance. It gets even more daunting when you add the challenges of communication among medical staff and between patients and
their caregivers, which often takes place under stressful circumstances. Those communication efforts are challenging enough in an environment where everyone
speaks the same language and feels at home in a single cultural context—but they’re in�initely more complex in the United States, whose residents identify with
dozens of different cultures and speak several hundred languages.
The Oakland-based health-care system Kaiser Permanente has been embracing the challenges and opportunities of diversity since its founding in 1945. It made a
strong statement with its very �irst hospital when it refused to follow the then-common practice of segregating patients by race. Now, as the largest not-for-pro�it
health system in the United States, Kaiser’s client base includes more than 10 million members from over 100 distinct cultures.
At the core of Kaiser’s approach is culturally competent care, which it de�ines as “health care that acknowledges cultural diversity in the clinical setting, respects
members’ beliefs and practices, and ensures that cultural needs are considered and respected at every point of contact.” These priorities.

Background
The research focuses on investigating leaders from highly rated managed care organizations based on their leadership practices in comparison to leaders from low rated managed care organizations. High rated organizations are managed care organizations who have attained either 4.5 or 5 Medicare Stars ratings whiles low ratings organizations are organizations who have attained 3 Stars or less.
The research design: Survey was sent to leaders from both high Medicare rated and low rated organizations. I believe I have enough sample size so the result will be significant. I have received 35 response from leaders from high rated organizations and 35 from low rated organizations (35 participants each responded, making 70 participants in total). The goal is to find out if there is a significant difference in leadership practice between leaders from highly rated organizations and low rated organizations.
The survey tool used is Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI), which has a total of 30 behavioral statements that reflect on the practices leaders regularly use in managing their organizations. The leaders were invited to complete the survey online. The 30 survey questions are grouped in 5 Models:
1. Model the Way
1. Inspire a Shared Vision
1. Challenge the Process
1. Enable Others to Act
1. Encourage the Heart
The participants completed the LPI self-test, where they must rate themselves depending on the frequency, which they believe in engaging in each of the five models. They rate themselves on a 10 point likert scale, below.
1-Almost Never
3-Seldom
5-Occasionally
7-Fairly Often
9-Very Frequently
2-Rarely
4-Once in a While
6-Sometimes
8-Usually
10-Almost always
1. Dependent Variable: Attaining high Overall Medicare Star Rating
1. Independent Variables:
1. Leadership practice Practices (Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart)
1. Years of Experience
1. Leadership Style
Abbreviations meaning:
LP- Leadership Practice
MSR – Medicare Stars Ratings
MSROs – Medicare Stars Ratings Organizations
YoE – Years of Experience
The following hypotheses has been tested, analyzed (page 4-23). SPSS software was used for data analysis.
Hypothesis 1 - There is a significant difference in LP between leaders from high (4.5 or 5) MSROs and low (3 Stars or less) MSROs.
Hypothesis 2 – There is a strong relationship between MSRs and the LP of both high and low MSROs
Hypothesis 3 - In comparison to other 4 models (thus Model the Way, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, Encourage the Hearts), practicing the “Inspire A Shared Vision” model is very significant in helping leaders influence the attainment of high MSR in MCOs.
Hypothesis 4 – The leaders’ leadership style contributes to a leader’s ability to influence the achievement of high Medicare ratings for MCO.
Hypothesis 5 – The Leaders’ of Years of Experience (YoE) is effective in enabling leaders influence the attainment o.

Interest Paper- Mental Health in Student Athletes
I am a communication major so must take this class to fulfill my requirements for the course, however, this class will set me up to understand the in-depth reasoning behind communication. The only rhetoric class I have taken in the past is rhetoric in English, not communication; I learnt about Plato, Socrates and all the pervious rhetors that formed the basis on how we communicate today. You could argue that learning it in English and now in communication it could be very similar or the same, but we aren’t focusing on what they wrote or spoke of but why and how. In this paper I chose to analyze a TedX talk from a student athlete Victoria Garrick called ‘Athletes and mental Health: The hidden opponent’, it discusses the challenges that she faced with mental health, and the struggles maintaining a top sport on a colligate team. The reasons behind this are based on the broad ideas and opinions people have on student athletes and mental health separately and together.
College athletics is a huge industry, an incredible achievement to get into a division 1 college on an athletic scholarship, but behind all this there are some dark truths. The TedX talk from Victoria Garrick explains these truths from an athlete’s perspective, this is conflicting to the ideas that an average student or outsider has, it explains what is happening behind closed doors. This artifact was gripping to me, it is something that I completely relate too; the artifact itself is a more personal approach to understand what is happening in regard to mental health in student athletes than just reading an article online. To me personally it is easier to find an artifact that I can easily relate too, something that is grossly underappreciated and classed as embarrassing, such a topic as mental health. There were no obstacles in retrieving artifacts for this interest, it is such a broad area that I am interested in finding more information about. There are artifacts everywhere about topics such as this, articles, speeches, documentaries, all gripping a relatable.
In this class I am aware that I have much to learn, understand the way in which we communicate and why, the best ways to communicate, and the best evidence and artifacts to find for a specific topic. Finding an artifact for a topic that you are deeply invested in is different than having to find one that your heart isn’t in. With regards to this paper I am already thinking about ideas of where I can focus my information on next, where can I understand different political views behind this topic? What are the families of these student athletes going through? Mental health and student athletes separately. With regards to this class I would like to be able to find these sources and write about them in a way that grips a reader and helps me understand the reasoning behind such communication methods.

From On the Advantage and Disadvantage of History for Life, by Friedrich Nietzsche (1874)
Section 1:
CONSIDER the herds that are feeding yonder: they know not the meaning of yesterday or to-day; they graze and ruminate, move or rest, from morning to night, from day to day, taken up with their little loves and hates, at the mercy of the moment, feeling neither melancholy nor satiety. Man cannot see them without regret, for even in the pride of his humanity he looks enviously on the beast's happiness. He wishes simply to live without satiety or pain, like the beast; yet it is all in vain, for he will not change places with it. He may ask the beast—"Why do you look at me and not speak to me of your happiness?" The beast wants to answer—"Because I always forget what I wished to say": but he forgets this answer too, and is silent; and the man is left to wonder.
He wonders also about himself, that he cannot learn to forget, but hangs on the past: however far or fast he run, that chain runs with him. It is matter for wonder: the moment, that is here and gone, that was nothing before and nothing after, returns like a spectre to trouble the quiet of a later moment. A leaf is continually dropping out of the volume of time and fluttering away and suddenly it flutters back into the man's lap. Then he says, "I remember . . . ," and envies the beast, that forgets at once, and sees every moment really die, sink into night and mist, extinguished for ever. The beast lives unhistorically; for it "goes into" the present, like a number, without leaving any curious remainder. It cannot dissimulate, it conceals nothing; at every moment it seems what it actually is, and thus can be nothing that is not honest. But man is always resisting the great and continually increasing weight of the past; it presses him down, and bows his shoulders; he travels with a dark invisible burden that he can plausibly disown, and is only too glad to disown in converse with his fellows—in order to excite their envy. And so it hurts him, like the thought of a lost Paradise, to see a herd grazing, or, nearer still, a child, that has nothing yet of the past to disown, and plays in a happy blindness between the walls of the past and the future. And yet its play must be disturbed, and only too soon will it be summoned from its little kingdom of oblivion. Then it learns to understand the words "once upon a time," the "open sesame" that lets in battle, suffering and weariness on mankind, and reminds them what their existence really is, an imperfect tense that never becomes a present. And when death brings at last the desired forgetfulness, it abolishes life and being together, and sets the seal on the knowledge that "being" is merely a continual "has been," a thing that lives by denying and destroying and contradicting itself.
If happiness and the chase for new happiness keep alive in any sense the will to live, no philosophy has perhaps more truth than the cynic's: for the beast's happine.

Multicultural and Social Justice
Counseling Competencies:
Guidelines for the Counseling Profession

S. Kent Butler, and Julian Rafferty McCullough
In 2014, the Association for Multicultural Counseling and Development (AMCD)
appointed a committee to revise the Multicultural Counseling Competencies
developed by Sue, Arredondo, and McDavis in 1992 and operationalized by
Arredondo et al. in 1996. This article reflects the updated competencies, titled
the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC; Ratts,
Singh, Nassar-McMillan, Butler, & McCullough, 2015a), which were endorsed by
AMCD on June 29, 2015, and by the American Counseling Association on July
20, 2015. A conceptual framework of the MSJCC visually depicts the relationships
among the competencies’ key constructs: multicultural and social justice praxis,
quadrants, domains, and competencies. Implications are discussed.
Keywords: multicultural, social justice, competencies, counseling, advocacy

their emergence and recognition, multicultural perspectives have become
embedded into many aspects of the counseling profession (Erickson Cornish,

CHAPTER 4: THE CARBON FOOTPRINT CONTROVERSY
What is the carbon footprint controversy?
Nearly all humans consume meat, dairy, and egg products in some form. In recent years the
e i me al m eme ha ed he ece i f ed ci g e ca b f i . Ca e
reduce our footprint without changing our diet? Much controversy surrounds that question. One
very extreme view on the political-left is below.
But when it comes to bad for the environment, nothing literally compares with eating meat. The business of raising
animals for food causes about 40 percent more global warming than all cars, trucks, and planes combined. If you care
about the planet, it's actually better to eat a salad in a Hummer than a cheeseburger in a Prius.
Bill Maher, host of HBO talk show Real Time with Bill Maher, writing in the Huffington Post in 2009. Accessed April 25,
2013 at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-maher/new-rule-a-hole-in-one-sh_b_259281.html.
The last decade has seen a movement advocating a vegan diet in order to reduce carbon emissions,
and in some respects the argument is logical. After all, it takes about 3.388 lbs of corn (and many
other inputs) to produce a single pound of retail beef, making meat seem relatively inefficient to
grains, thus leading to a larger carbon footprint.134 So common is this notion that some schools
e c age Mea le M da for the sake of the environment. The Meatless Monday movement
has even been adopted by the Norwegian military.135 Moreover, there is some scientific research
showing that vegan (and vegetarian) diets do result in a smaller carbon footprint.136
When dealing with issues as big as global warming i ea feel hel le , like he e li le e ca d make a
diffe e ce B he mall cha ge e make e e da ca ha e a eme d im ac . Tha h his Meatless Monday
resolution is important. Together we can better our health, the animals and the environment, one plate at a time.
Los Angeles Councilmember Ed Reyes, co-author of a Meatless Monday resolution in 2012.137
However, equally prestigious research shows that vegan diets can result in a higher carbon
footprint.138 How can this be? One reason is that some carbon footprint estimates are wrong, or
rather, interpreted incorrectly. The idea of livestock production being a large carbon emitter began
with a report by the United Nations (UN) suggesting that livestock contributes 18% f he ld
carbon footprint, more than the transportation sector,139 thus giving Bill Maher reason to point the
blame at burgers instead of Hummers.
It turns out that this 18% is fraught with errors, a lea , d e e e e c di i i he U.S.
For instance, the UN did not account for the carbon emissions involved in making the inputs used
in the transportation sector, but they did for livestock. This would be like saying the production of
tires has zero carbon emissions but the production of corn does. Also, that 18% makes a number of
contestable assumptions, especially regardi.

Megaregion Planning
and High-Speed Rail
Petra Todorovich
c h a p t e r 2 4
?
On April 16, 2009, President Obama stood before an audience at the Eisenhower
Executive Office Building and made an announcement that signaled a new era of
passenger rail in the United States. Months before, the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) had provided $8 billion for a new program at the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to issue competitive grants to states to
make capital investments in high-speed and conventional passenger rail. Little did
the president know that providing the single largest boost for intercity rail plan-
ning in this country in a generation had also motivated a sudden and giant leap for-
ward in planning and governing megaregions. Luckily, regional planners had been
studying emerging megaregions for the previous five years, in affiliation with the
New York–based Regional Plan Association’s (RPA) America 2050 program. Again
and again, the planners had identified high-speed rail as the key transportation
investment to serve megaregion economies. But high-speed rail was a distant
dream. That all changed with the passage of ARRA at the nadir of the Great
Recession. Now a federal program exists to support high-speed rail planning
and implementation. Making that program a success will largely depend on the
ability of multiple actors at the local, regional, state, and binational levels to come
together as megaregions to coordinate and leverage federal rail investments.
Revisiting Megalopolis: RPA Resurrects
the Megaregion Idea
As if planning for the Tri-State New York metropolitan region was not sufficiently
complicated, in 2005 the Regional Plan Association launched a national program
called America 2050 that focused on the emergence of a new urban scale: the
megaregion. This was not actually a new concept for RPA. In 1967 a volume of the
Second Regional Plan documented the emergence of “The Atlantic Urban Region,”
an urban chain stretching 460 miles from Maine to Virginia (Regional Plan

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Transitional ServicesTransitional services are critical for .docx
- 1. Transitional Services Transitional services are critical for helping children with exceptionalities to successfully complete their schooling and transition into adulthood. One of the more daunting transitions is from adolescence to adulthood because children no longer have regular access to the professionals they did during their school years. Using the Internet, research transitional services available in your state. The Center for Parent Information and Resources offers a helpful Web site for researching various services. You may also use other reliable sources. The details of the CPIR Web site are as follows: Center for Parent Information and Resources. (n.d.). State agencies addressing disabilities . Retrieved from http://www.parentcenterhub.org/repository/stateagencies/ Based on your research, address the following: Analyze the services a person with exceptionalities might require as he or she transitions through adolescence to adulthood. Evaluate the transitional services available for your state. Be sure to list the Web sites and names of the agencies providing these services.
- 2. Compare these to the services you listed as being desirable for a person with exceptionalities transitioning to adulthood. Present an evaluation of the level of services available. Describe your search for information about transitional services. What kinds of difficulties did you encounter in locating the information you needed, if any? What sources did you use? How did you go about finding information? Provide your recommendations for locating services needed for people with disabilities as they transition into adulthood and addressing the challenges associated with gathering information. Write a 3–5-page paper in Word format. Be sure to include separate title and reference pages.
