In 2006, Latino youth aged 11-18 who had witnessed domestic violence were invited to a conference to discuss their strengths. The youth interviewed other children and adolescents at Caminar Latino about experiencing violence at home. The study found that Latino youth facing domestic violence have personal strengths, family support, and community resources to draw from. Talking about and using humor about their situations and having safe places away from home were especially important.

Letters to Strangers Uses Words to Destigmatize Mental Illness
New York City resident James Ferrari produces feature films and documentaries as the director of Ferrari Media and Tribal Truth Media. James Ferrari is also an entrepreneur and philanthropist who contributes to several causes, such as Letters to Strangers, a support organization for people aged 13 to 24 who suffer from mental illnesses.
Letters to Strangers began with Diane Chao, whose bipolar disorder led her to attempt suicide while in high school. She discovered that writing eased her pain, and created a network where people with psychiatric disorders could offer hope to each other. Members of Letters to Strangers write anonymously to share how they cope. People not in the network can visit www.letterstostrangers.org for guidelines and access to letter-writing software.
To reduce the stigma of mental illness, the group equips volunteers to organize help sessions in schools. It brings in professionals for educational events and organizes peer-to-peer efforts. Volunteers also address global issues that influence mental health, including food shortages, physical disabilities, and lack of education. Their efforts have been recognized by several groups, including the We Are Family Foundation, Mental Health America, and StudentVoice.
Civitan Presentation - Lighthouse for Life
Human Trafficking is the 2nd largest criminal enterprise in the world, affecting every country. There are over 20 million victims of human trafficking globally today, more than at any time in history. In the U.S., up to 300,000 children are trafficked annually, and it is a multi-billion dollar industry. Victims can be of any age, gender, race, or nationality. They are most often recruited through manipulation by acquaintances, family members, and false promises of love and employment. Pimps and traffickers seek out and exploit vulnerabilities in potential victims, many of whom have experiences of abuse, family instability, substance abuse, or time in foster care.
Dream
1) The document discusses a reaction to a podcast about the Dream Act and issues facing young Mexican Americans who were brought to the US illegally as children.
2) It notes that under current immigration laws, these young people's futures are limited because they derive immigration status from their parents, and if their parents are undocumented then the children cannot gain legal residency.
3) The Dream Act bill is seen as a way to help address this issue and provide a path to legal status and citizenship for young people who spend most of their lives in the US but do not have legal status.

FAMILY CHANGES SINCE 1960
NAME;

Many experts cite the weakening of the family as one of the causes for some of the problems that society faces today. Do you agree? In your paper, include the following information:
· Identify important or significant changes in families since 1960. What factors are responsible for this change?
· On the balance, are families becoming weaker or simply different? What evidence can you cite?
· If you agree with the experts, what proposals do you have to strengthen the family?
· If you disagree with experts, why?
FAMILY CHANGES SINCE 1960
I tend to agree with experts in their debate of the weakening of ties between families as the factor resulting in to a ‘rotten’ society. In the 1960’s, families were ran by both the man and the wife. Fathers took the responsibility of working while women took care of the young and family chores. (Pew Research Center 2010). Changes occurred when mothers started to work to support their families. Inner family residents dealt with single parenthood resulting from jailing of the father or death or from unwilling to support the family. This lead children to take care of themselves as mothers were busy looking for work as the economy had drastically changed. Divorces rocked most families that brought rifts between children and parents. Children needed their parental love but the parents tried to occupy their children. The children grew up with many problems. Mothers could keep up to 3 hubbies. Increase in income and the changing personalities among members of the family led to more and more changes. People had forsaken the old way of doing things (man at work, women at home taking care of the family) (Davis, 1991).
I am on the side of experts. Some of the things I would propose for stronger ties between families are love, loyalty, commitment, communication, laughter, leadership, spiritual wellness and time together. Other things to make the family stronger are working hard to make the best income for your family to be contented with what they have. Learning life in marriage, parenting, life and family are also a key factor to a happy family. Each member should keep the family priorities and values ringing in their minds. Most individual don’t realize the importance of a family thus see no need to better it leading to he break up of it.( James, 2008).
A successful family is made of good communication, appreciation, spending more time with ones family and reinforcing the commitments. Spiritual wellness has the good in that it enables individuals in a family cope up with crises; appreciate one another, seeing the importance of one spending time with his/her family and the commitments to each other. Good communication between children and paren5ts and between a husband and a wife is the key to a successful family. This would result to no problems to the society.

This study examined cases of child abuse among Chinese immigrant families in Los Angeles. The researchers reviewed 221 case files from the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services involving limited-English speaking Chinese families reported for abuse from July to September 2001. The study found that the most common types of abuse were physical abuse (18.9% of cases) and neglect (27.4% of cases). Factors like cultural beliefs, family roles, gender roles, and length of time living in the US influenced the characteristics and severity of abuse cases. The study highlights needs for clear policies, community support, outreach programs, and better systems to prevent abuse among immigrant families.

This study examined 221 cases of child abuse among immigrant Chinese families in Los Angeles. The researchers reviewed case files to analyze victim characteristics, perpetrator traits, family characteristics, and outcomes. Most victims endured physical abuse or neglect, and perpetrators generally had less education and spoke English less well than counterparts. Children were often kept in the home, reflecting cultural norms favoring keeping families together. The study provided insight into culturally-informed abuse patterns and implications for social services.
