RESCUING THE INNOCENTS OF CONFLICT orrid as it is, armed conflict reaches unthinkable extremes when children are forced Hinto it, both as victims and as soldiers. That is the situation facing The Carter Center’s Conflict Resolution Program (CRP). Chris Burke is the program’s field representative in Khartoum, Sudan, and a CRP team member dedicated to implementing the Nairobi Peace Accord, which aims to normalize relations between Uganda and Sudan. The agreement, brokered in Decem- ber 1999, calls upon the respective governments to end support for rebel groups operating from the sanctuary of each other’ s country. Of immediate importance to Burke are the tactics of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), Ugandan insurrectionists conduct- ing raids into northern Uganda from bases in southern Sudan. For the past decade, the LRA has abducted children between the ages of 10 and 15. Girls are forcibly married off to rebel commanders, and boys are trained as guerrilla fighters who execute raids and kidnap more children. As many as 12,000 children have been abducted over the past 10 years, and up to 4,000 of them remain in LRA hands. ○○○○○○○○○○○○ “These kids are abducted in very brutal ways,” Burke explains. “They are ambushed on school buses or dragged from their

homes in the middle of the night. Then they’re marched back to southern Sudan, where they’re given minimal training and very C little food.

“Those who are frail or complain or try to escape may be killed, often by the other kids as part of their initiation. Some are ONFLICT even forced to kill their parents,” he adds.

How Center helps kidnapped victims While negotiations continue with the LRA for the peaceful return of its child fighters – and some adults as well – to Uganda, some kidnapped children manage to escape and find their way to Sudanese government outposts or relief agency offices in the area.

Some are placed with families, while others are sent to Khartoum, where they are processed for repatriation to Uganda. R Burke, whose job is to liaise between the Ugandan and Sudanese governments and relief agencies, has been active in building mechanisms to retrieve, identify, and repatriate these young kidnap victims. ESOLUTION Several other nongovernmental organizations also are central to this effort, including UNICEF, Save the Children-United Kingdom, and the International Organization for Migration. “The Carter Center is the only organization able to devote resources to all aspects of this complex project,” Burke says. “I think that’s the real value of what we’re doing here. Unfortunately, there’s a tremendous amount of politics involved, but that’s what The Carter Center does so well.” The contrasts in Burke’s job border on the surreal. He spends half his time in a suit and tie, dealing with government officials. He devotes the other half to working with about a dozen children at a time who have been horribly injured, physically

and psychologically. P ROGRAM

The children’s homecoming ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ While many of the children themselves have committed heinous crimes, under duress, their communities accept them back, Burke says. “Most of these people are ethnic Acholis,” he explains. “Within their society is a rich tradition of reconciliation. So even though some have been involved in atrocious crimes in their own communities, they’re accepted home.” Burke describes his job as hectic, demanding, tiring, often frustrating, but extremely rewarding. “When we first find these EU

PAVING A PATH TOWARD DEMOCRACY he Carter Center’s China Village Elections Project is in its third year promoting Tdemocratic growth in a country that for 13 years has allowed competitive elections for leaders in some 800,000 rural villages. For Dr. Yawei Liu, who manages the Center’s work in China, the project has personal importance. A native of Northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, Dr. Liu worked as an editor at a Chinese publishing house, where he routinely censored sexually explicit or political material from American literature being translated into Chinese. After earning master’s and doctoral degrees in Ameri- can history at U.S. universities, Dr. Liu set his sights on advancing China’s nascent experiment with democracy. He joined The Carter Center team to help forge an unprecedented agreement with China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA), granting the Center permission to help Chinese officials improve the government’s technical and administrative capacity to conduct

village elections. The effort in rural villages touches 75 percent ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ of the nation’s 1.2 billion people. Signed in March 1998, the Memorandum of Understand-

ing between The Carter Center and the MCA called for the D two organizations to jointly devise a pilot project for a national village elections data-gathering system, standardize election EMOCRACY procedures, publicize elections, and conduct bilateral election observations. Activities last year included expanding data gathering and voter education, training election officials, and observing elections. “Villagers are still learning how to conduct a secret, fair, and competitive election, and the procedures they use to vote

vary greatly throughout the country. The data-gathering

system is helping the MCA get a handle on what is being done AND so they know what needs to be improved and can accurately ITANG X

IU evaluate the quality of an election,” says Dr. Liu. L

DR. YAWEI LIU (LEFT) AND OTHER CARTER CENTER DELEGATES WAIT IN THE The pilot project involves providing computers in three E

With computers installed in Hunan in late 1998, the Center last year began to focus on Fujian Province, and prepared to move into Jilin and Shaanxi provinces. In the past year, 95 computers were installed, and more than 100 computer operators were trained on the system. In addition, the data-gathering software was revised, making it easier to examine election results and procedures, as well as demographic data on the winners. The system also can generate MCA- required forms that used to be filed manually.

As part of its voter education effort, The Carter Center sponsored a Chinese Web site (www.chinarural.org) that focuses on P election news coverage, issues related to national and provincial election regulations, academic research, and official data on ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

election results. This site has become well known domestically and internationally as the primary source for information on China’s ROGRAM basic level democracy. Moreover, many villagers and local officials use the site to contact MCA officials. A second voter education effort by The Carter Center supported the printing and distribution of more than 100,000 posters about the 1988 Organic Law, which authorized local elections. In addition to its work with the MCA, the Center continued to discuss with the National People’s Congress (NPC) how to standardize procedures for electing People’s Congress deputies and officials from townships, the first level of formal government from which China ultimately chooses all of its legislators through indirect elections. As part of this dialogue, an NPC delegation traveled to the United States in April 2000 to observe the Pennsylvania presidential primary, a follow-up to the Center’s observation of a township election in southwest China in 1999. Whether democratic practices will be implemented at higher levels of China’s political system remains to be seen, says Dr. Liu. “Realistically, village elections were initiated to maintain social and political order in the countryside in the wake of unprecedented economic reform,” he says. “Acceptance of democratic practice throughout the entire political system will come gradually, if at all, like change does in China.” Still, he says, efforts to promote free elections and standardize election procedures in villages are bearing fruit. “Each year since 1997, we have had at least one delegation observe several village elections. Voter turnout is nearly perfect in many villages. People have come to appreciate that their votes are secret and believe they also carry weight and can make a difference,” says Dr. Liu. “They see the power their vote has to impact the quality of village life. If they don’t like the job an official does, they vote him out of office. That’s a fairly new concept for China.” By working in conjunction with China’s rural residents to pave the way for the coming of democracy, Dr. Liu and other Carter ○○○○○○○○○○○ Center Democracy Program staff are small but necessary catalysts for democratic progress. Dr. Liu says he knows that each time he returns to China, he will see some positive changes.

“It’s great to be a part of a project that is helping behind the scenes to strengthen new rights and new freedoms,” he says. ○○○○○○○○○○○

ALBANIA’S PATHWAY TO DEMOCRACY emocracy is more than elections. In a deeper sense, participatory government offers Dcitizens the opportunity to decide their economic, political, and social destiny as a nation. It is an opportunity long denied the people of Albania. Through The Carter Center’s Global Development Initiative, Albanians may at last be starting on a path to self-determina- tion. Leaders from government, civil society, and the private sector are working with The Carter Center to craft and implement a National Development Strategy (NDS) that addresses a range of issues including economic development, education, environmental protection, health care, human rights, and the judicial system. The NDS process has three main objectives in Albania. The first is to help the country formulate a comprehensive strategy for sustainable development and poverty reduction. The second objective is to strengthen democracy and respect for human rights by promoting a participatory process of respect and openness that will give Albanians practical experience in working together. To meet that objective, a number of Albanians will be trained to facilitate dialogue and resolve conflict throughout the NDS process. Third, the NDS process builds the capacity of Albanian government and civil society to manage development on their own. ○○○○○○○○○○○○

Past affects present G “Albania is a small developing country that’s struggling to institute democracy and a market economy in an era of globalization, and those challenges are fraught with difficulties,” says Jason Calder, senior program associate of the Global Development Initiative. LOBAL Those difficulties include the formidable weight of history. Ancient Illyria (Albania) was conquered in succession by Romans, Slavs, and Turks — the latter bringing Islam to the Balkan region, where it remains

the dominant religion. Albania declared its independence in 1912, and D seven years later became a republic only to be invaded again by Italian

troops at the onset of World War II. EVELOPMENT Following the war, Albania fell under communist control and developed the unenviable reputation as one of the most closed societies in the world. With the collapse of European communism, Albania again was presented an opportunity to achieve a measure of self-determination. In 1993, President Carter visited Albania, where the people’s enthusiasm for democracy impressed him. But in a nationwide investment pyramid IELDS F scheme during the mid-’90s, international swindlers looted about half the VOR I savings of an already impoverished population and plunged the country

Remarkably, while the influx of ethnic Albanians severely strained an already fragile infrastructure, the country rallied to support its brethren in their time of crisis. With material aid from Western countries, what could have been one more debacle in Albania’s history instead highlighted the generosity, resilience, and determination of the Albanian people.

Center helps map out strategy With relative peace prevailing in the region, The Carter Center re-started the process of developing an NDS with Albanian political and business leaders this past March. In June, an NDS field office opened in the Albanian capital, Tiranë. “We’ve been doing a lot of consultations with government and international agencies about major development issues in Albania and networking with nongovernmental organizations all around the country,” says Calder in describing some of the initial steps. “The field office director is meeting with local organizations — women’s groups and others — who want to participate in this initiative.” Consensus building at the grassroots level is critical to sustaining development plans and the long-term democratic process. Creating an NDS will involve town meetings, workshops, and task forces at the community level to create broad national goals, objectives, and ultimately, a national vision. The work then moves to defining practical strategies for every sector of the economy. By emphasizing broad-based participation and consensus in its creation, the NDS can serve as a guide to any succeeding ○○○○○○○○○○○ government. It also provides a framework for the international donor and banking communities in assessing needs and progress. The prospects for success are cautiously optimistic. While establishment of sustainable democratic processes takes a long time, there exists in Albania widespread agreement that some kind of national development strategy is necessary to help the nation

attract investment and achieve economic prosperity. The process already has a substantial plus on its side: the people of Albania. ○○○○○○○○○○○ 11 ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

HUMAN RIGHTS LEADER SERVES AT UNITED NATIONS

s a delegate to this year’s U.N. Commission on Human Rights, The Carter Center’s A Karin Ryan saw more than a decade of work come to fruition as several resolutions were passed during the commission’s 56th session in Geneva, Switzerland, in March 2000. The commission, which monitors compliance with international human rights law and investigates alleged violations, resolved to condemn Russia for human rights violations commit- ted by its army, establish a fact-finding officer to investigate abuses or persecution of human rights activists worldwide, and recognize domestic violence and “honor killings” as violations of human rights. “Honor killing” is the murder of a woman by a relative for supposedly shaming her family. “The most important part of all this is people in every society are claiming their rights,” says Ryan, former assistant director of Human Rights. “We’re calling on the highest ideals among all societies to bring out the best and leave behind practices that undermine human dignity.”

Ryan joined The Carter Center in 1988 to assist President Jimmy Carter and Mrs. Carter in ○○○○○○○○○○○○○ ERTSCHMANN their interventions with governments on individual cases. She later helped establish the Center’s B

Although accomplishments in human rights often take years, organizations like The Carter

Center and the U.N. commission contribute to the growing movement of greater protection of human rights. H “The global process provides a stage for local activists to make their issues known,” Ryan says. “It is a long-term investment. It’s important not to expect things will change dramatically in a short time, but it is not impossible to expect societies can change, and we UMAN

WITH THE GUINEA WORM ERADICATION PROGRAM, WHO TRANSLATED THEIR CONVERSATION. E

ON GUINEA WORM’S FRONT LINES RADICATION odging pelting raindrops and mud puddles, Dr. Mamamdou Bathily scurried to the Dnearest house in the village. He used to find people sitting in their homes, waiting for the rainy season to pass, in too much pain to work, their limbs blistered and sore. They could only sit and pull out their Guinea worms an inch or so each day for 8 to 10 weeks on average. Today, Dr. Bathily finds a renewed village in his home in Mali, an African country battling a disease that has been on the Earth for more than 3,000 years. This village was once so infested with Guinea worms that residents could not farm or

cook food and children could no longer walk to school. P Today, the village is free of Guinea worm disease, a winning example to those who once told Dr. Bathily he would not ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

win this fight against the disease. “There are just too many cases,” he remembers being told. ROGRAM Dr. Bathily is one of many health care workers on the front line in the fight to eradicate Guinea worm, a disease contracted only by drinking contaminated water. He spends much of his time visiting villages, training volunteers, collecting data, educating villagers about how to avoid becoming infected, and yes, pulling the worms out of infected limbs. At times, it has been a tiring journey, one of convincing villagers that the disease comes from drinking infected water and not from witchcraft or an angry god, checking water filters for the tiniest of holes, and explaining to villagers why they must prevent anyone with Guinea worms from entering their sources of drinking water. Despite long hours, Dr. Bathily said he finds “moral satisfaction” in his work. He only has to remember a man he saw on Christmas Eve 1993 to recall his mission. “He was sitting on the floor with only a pair of shorts on,” he said. “He had blisters all over his body. He was crawling on the floor and had lost a lot of weight. By chance, three years later, I was in the same village with a team. This man was directing us to what households we should visit. He said because of us, he is in good health today. He had been crawling for six months, and as head of the household, you can imagine the impact.” Dr. Bathily has worked against Guinea worm since becoming a doctor in 1993. He subsequently joined Mali’s special Guinea worm eradication team headed by General Amadou Toumani Touré, the country’s former president. Although Mali is not yet free from Guinea worm disease, and Dr. Bathily works in what used to be the country’s most endemic area, there has been very tangible progress. Now, Guinea worm cases in his region are mostly from people who have

moved into the area. The number of cases over the past three years has dropped dramatically, and according to a survey, 90 ○○○○○○○○○○○ percent of the people in his region understand the origin of the disease, he said. “In public health, you have to come across to them as well versed,” he said. “We have to have compassion and intelli-

gence to resolve problems. We want to change the behavior of people. We must have courage. We must have patience.” ○○○○○○○○○○○

MISSION

Reduce the burden of river blindness (onchocerciasis) in assisted areas of Africa until it is no longer a major public health concern, and eliminate the disease throughout Latin America by 2007. River blindness is a debilitating disease spread by the bite of blackflies. It causes blindness and severe skin disease in millions of people in Africa and Latin America. An oral dose of Mectizan®, donated by Merck & Co., given once or twice each year can control the disease.

HIGHLIGHTS OF 1999-2000 ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ ■ A $16 million gift from the Lions Clubs International Foundation for the Lions-Carter Center SightFirst Initiative in October 1999 will assist Carter Center blindness prevention programs (river blindness and trachoma) in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East.

■ As of September 2000, The Carter Center’s Global 2000 River Blindness Control Program (GRBP) has assisted in treating 4,136,741 people. Since 1996, The Carter Center has helped distribute more than 25 million treatments of the drug Mectizan.

■ The Carter Center expanded the GRBP into Ethiopia and assisted the Ministry of Health in its application to gain

funding from the African Program for Onchocerciasis Control. R

■ The Onchocerciasis Elimination Program for the Americas, which The Carter Center administratively supports, com- IVER pleted draft criteria for the World Health Organization (WHO) certification of elimination of river blindness in the Ameri-

cas. B

LOOKING AHEAD LINDNESS ■ The Carter Center will begin to assist Ethiopia’s Ministry of Health with treatment and health education activities in 2001.

■ GRBP will help the ministries of Health in Brazil, Guatemala, and Venezuela to extend treatments to most of the targeted populations in their respective countries.

■ The Carter Center and WHO will convene a conference to explore the potential eradicability of river blindness. P ROGRAM ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

GREAT CHANCES FOR CHANGE ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ rinking water, dawdling along a riverbank, or rubbing your eyes could lead to a Dtragic chain of life-altering events, depending on which part of the world you live in. In sub-Saharan Africa, a formidable foe is Guinea worm disease, an illness that results from drinking contaminated water. If you call the riverbanks home in Africa, Latin America, or the Arabian Peninsula, blackflies also may reside there, waiting to bite and cause river blindness. Live in practically any developing country, and you could contract trachoma, the world’s leading cause of preventable blindness, by wiping your child’s infected eyes and then rubbing your own. A worm, a fly, and bacteria have driven The Carter Center, various ministries of Health, and many international corporate partnerships to work relentlessly in halting the spread of disease. Among those waging battle are two staff members who offer a glimpse of their work’s impact.

Diallo’s Duty An invitation from former Global 2000 Director Andy Agle to visit The Carter Center became a job offer for Nwando Diallo, senior program associate for the Guinea Worm Eradication Program. The 1994 Princeton University graduate and Lagos, Nigeria, native contacted the Center because of its commitment to helping people in Africa. ADE

“My job includes regularly checking in with the countries to find out what they need, W

what problems they are having, and how we can help,” says Diallo. “When I began to ADARA N organize and attend meetings within the program areas, this gave me an opportunity to NWANDO DIALLO meet the people working in affected countries and allowed me to feel even more connected.” Seeing various countries win their battles against Guinea worm disease was a highpoint for Diallo and her colleagues

ROGRAM during a July 2000 ceremony at The Carter Center. The event honored Cameroon, Chad, India, Kenya, Pakistan, Senegal, and Yemen with a specially commissioned statute for successfully eradicating all cases of indigenously transmitted Guinea P worm. Today, there are fewer than 100,000 Guinea worm cases worldwide, down from more than 3.2 million cases in 1986 when the Center first launched its offensive against the disease. “It is a great feeling to know that this disease can be beat and that some countries already have succeeded,” Diallo says. “When Senegal reached zero cases, I thought, ‘How many others can reach it as well?’ Also, being able to help people in my native country is a benefit that is just immeasurable to me. I believe that within the next two to three years, we will see the end of Guinea worm disease.” LINDNESS

B Mathai’s Perspective Wanjira Mathai, senior program officer of the Global 2000 River Blindness Program, has been with ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ the program since its inception in 1996. She joined the effort after obtaining a master’s degree from the

IVER Emory University Rollins School of Public Health and interning with the Guinea Worm Eradication Program. R “River blindness affects the community’s economic viability as adults become unable to work or care for the children,” says Mathai, a native of Nairobi, Kenya. “Often entire villages are forced to abandon fertile bottomland near rivers, where the vector blackflies breed.” ENTER

Since 1996, the River Blindness Program has provided more than 26 million treatments. A C

recently expanded partnership with the Lions Clubs International Foundation and the Hilton Founda- ARTER C

tion has created the Lions-Carter Center SightFirst Initiative that will strengthen and sustain river HE T ® blindness control activities. In addition, Merck & Co. donates the drug Mectizan to prevent skin and WANJIRA MATHAI eye disease from developing in people who are infected. “Improving the health of the community also improves their lives economically, so everyone benefits,” explains Mathai.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ “It’s very exciting to see the success in the Guinea worm and River Blindness programs, and to know that our new projects

— trachoma, schistosomiasis, and lymphatic filariasis — will benefit from the lessons we’ve learned.” ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ 20 ○○○○○○○○○○○○

MISSION

Assist global efforts to control trachoma in selected countries through community-based interventions, operations research, and advocacy. Trachoma is the world’s leading cause of preventable blindness that most likely results from repeated bacterial infection over several years. Patients build up scar tissue on the inside of their eyelids, eventually causing the eyelids to turn inward. Constant rubbing of the eyelashes against the eye produces painful corneal problems and sometimes irreversible ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ blindness. Simple face and hand washing can prevent the disease from spreading. About 6 million people, mostly women, are blind from trachoma. Another 540 million, almost 10 percent of the world’s population, are at risk. The Carter Center has begun a program to help curtail trachoma in six African countries and Yemen.

HIGHLIGHTS OF 1999-2000

■ The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation previously contributed $13.6 million to The Carter Center to fight trachoma.

■ During an October 1999 visit to Ferekoroba, Mali, President and Mrs. Carter met villagers affected with various stages of trachoma. Former Malian head of state General Amadou Toumani Touré accompanied the Carters and co-signed with

President Carter a trachoma agreement on behalf of the Malian T government. The Trachoma Control Program (TCP) will begin in three regions in Mali and eventually include all areas. RACHOMA

■ A $16 million grant from the Lions Clubs International Foundation for the Lions-Carter Center SightFirst Initiative in October 1999 will assist Carter Center blindness prevention programs in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. This grant allowed The Carter Center to expand its TCP to Ethiopia

and Sudan. C

■ The Carter Center, with Helen Keller International, helped ONTROL Niger’s Ministry of Health to begin interventions in 30 endemic villages to date. Sudan’s Ministry of Health launched its TCP, aided by the Lions-Carter Center SightFirst Initiative and a special donation of ZithromaxTM from Pfizer in August 2000.

Nearly 11,000 people have received treatment. P ■ The Carter Center held the first Trachoma Control Program Review in February 2000 and launched a new joint blindness ROGRAM

MISSION

Collaborate with Ethiopian officials and teaching staff to design curricula and strengthen teaching capacities for practical training of health care workers in more than 500 Ethiopian community health centers. This undertaking is part of the Ethiopian government’s plan to open more health centers, rebuilding fundamental health care for millions of villagers located in rural communities.

HIGHLIGHTS OF 1999-2000

■ Assisting Ethiopian partners since September 1997, The Carter Center has facilitated five workshops and produced early working drafts of 10 training modules on topics such as malaria, diarrhea and dehydration, pneumonia, measles, HIV/AIDS,

syphilis, tuberculosis, trachoma, ascariasis, and protein energy malnutrition. E

■ The Ethiopia Public Health Training Initiative (EPHTI) has provided equipment and supplies to each college for THIOPIA producing training and classroom materials, including one desktop computer with a printer, one photocopier, reference ○○○○○○○○○○○○○ books, computer software, and subscriptions for nine internationally published journals. ■ The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Ethiopian Ministry of Education approved a grant in September 2000 for $5.3 million over three years to fund EPHTI activities. Additionally, there was a $600,000

grant over three years from the Packard Foundation and other smaller donations. P UBLIC LOOKING AHEAD

■ A learning environment is emerging in which junior- and mid-career teachers can become more effective and

simultaneously create appropriate learning materials for Ethiopian health training programs. H ■ The EPHTI will publish the first sets of revised modules and manuals as standard training materials in Ethiopia.

■ Other countries where trachoma is endemic may adapt the trachoma module for their use. EALTH

DEALING WITH “A FRONTIER MIND-SET” ife has not been easy for Suzanne Hopkins, whose lifelong battle with mental illness Lcontributed to an alcohol and a methamphetamine addiction. Unemployed and homeless in Los Angeles, Hopkins, who as a child had been diagnosed and treated for depression, was invited a few years ago by her sister to live with her and her family in Lewistown, Mont. There the middle-aged widow started getting herself together by joining Alcoholics Anonymous. More important, she saw a psychiatrist in Billings who diagnosed her as having attention deficit disorder. The medicine she takes for that illness, along with prescription anti-depressants, also has helped her successfully deal with ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ her addictions. Hopkins has come a long way in her recovery. Though still unemployed, she belongs to a garden club and attends a weekly Bible study class. She also has evolved as a champion of mental health issues, becoming president of the newly formed Lewistown chapter of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill. Hopkins is one of hundreds of interviewees that Billings Gazette Assistant Editor Pat Bellinghausen met for her nine-part series on mental health in rural communities. The Gazette published this series, “A Frontier Mind-set,” on nine successive Sundays this past summer. A $10,000 Rosalynn Carter Fellowship for Mental Health Journalism funded the months of research ELLAR

Z behind the project. Bellinghausen was one of six award recipients for 1999-2000. M OB B The series also represented a substantial commitment from the newspaper, which has a PAT BELLINGHAUSEN, A REPORTER FOR circulation of 50,000. MONTANA’S BILLINGS GAZETTE, ENTAL “I went to some conferences and I visited towns of a few hundred people, counties of a few PRODUCED A NINE-PART SERIES TITLED thousand — farming and ranching communities in Montana and Wyoming — and talked to “A FRONTIER MIND-SET” ABOUT PEOPLE’S mental health providers and especially people who have mental illnesses,” says Bellinghausen, MENTAL HEALTH STRUGGLES IN SMALL who logged 3,000 miles during the project. “I found out how they were living with their mental COMMUNITIES. BELLINGHAUSEN WAS illness, where they got care, what they didn’t get that they needed, how they got along with their H A 1999-2000 MENTAL HEALTH community, what was important to them, and how they got jobs or didn’t get jobs.” JOURNALISM FELLOW. One of the most surprising discoveries, she says, was that “some people were doing as well as EALTH they are.” In those best-case situations, the rural or small-town environment is supportive. “There’s a sense of, ‘This person is a part of our community, our family, and we’re going to take care of him,’” she explains.

Obstacles: availability, access, stigma P But for the majority of people with mental illnesses, finding help is difficult. Availability and access to services are two related issues of particular significance in rural areas, where the closest mental health care provider could be hundreds of miles away. In fact, there were ROGRAM no psychiatrists whatsoever in the extensive area Bellinghausen covered. “The family doctor is basically the mental health provider de facto,” Bellinghausen says. “Some of them do an excellent job, and some of them really don’t want to deal with mental health problems.” ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ Telemedicine — a two-way videoconference between a doctor and patient — offers tremendous potential in bringing health care to remote areas, Bellinghausen wrote. But currently, deployment of the technology is extremely limited. Probably the most challenging barrier facing people with mental illnesses in small towns dotting rural Montana and Wyoming is the stigma associated with such conditions. Rural communities have distinctive personalities, Bellinghausen says, and while one may exhibit a supportive atmosphere for neighbors with mental health problems, another may not be as accommodating. In either case, people in small towns tend to know one another’s business, making lack of confidentiality an important inhibition to seeking professional help. “You may not want your neighbors to know that you have a mental illness or you’re seeking treatment for it,” she says. “Some people will drive out of town to see a counselor even if one comes to their town because they don’t want the neighbors to see their truck parked at the mental health clinic.” On the other hand, Bellinghausen visited communities where residents have little reserve about visiting mental health counselors or participating in support groups, though they often still do not want to share their problems with neighbors.

Native Americans’ concerns more complex Native Americans living on reservations in Montana and Wyoming face the same basic mental health issues — access, stigma, and confidentiality — as their neighbors, Bellinghausen reports. But a complex interaction of many other concerns compounds their problems. A much higher-than-average incidence of poverty, drug abuse, domestic violence, and physical disease make it difficult to separate mental health from other urgent social and medical issues.

And while each tribe or community has its distinct concerns and customs, many Native Americans distrust white people, especially ○○○○○○○○○○○○ when they are bringing some new idea they say will help the native population. “In some communities, it’s an uphill battle to have people trust mental health professionals,” Bellinghausen says. One key is to develop a program that works within the framework of the indigenous culture. “One community I visited has a tribal elder who is part of their mental health program staff,” she explains. “He is respected in the community and puts people in touch with sweat lodges or other traditional healing, spiritual approaches this Native American group

uses. Respecting tribal traditions and combining professional and traditional aspects of mental health is helpful in this community.” ○○○○○○○○○○○

AN INTERN’S LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE hile helping Albanians develop a direction for their country, Alexious Butler also Wdiscovered a career-shaping purpose for herself. This past spring, The Carter Center selected Butler for an internship with its Global Development Initiative (GDI). ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ Most of her work centered on the National Development Strategy (NDS) effort in Albania and included a visit to that country to help re-start the NDS process there. “When I accepted the internship, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do as a career,” says the Atlanta native, who earned an undergraduate degree in political science at Duke University. “At The Carter Center, I actually did program work and had a chance to talk to the people who are impacted by economic development programs. I got a feel for how the GDI works and how economic development benefits developing countries.” Butler’s assignments included preparing weekly reports that the Center distributed to President Carter and other officials, updating them about activities in countries where the GDI is active. She also prepared the briefing books and appointment schedule for the Albania mission. The trip’s purpose was to gauge interest in re-establishing the NDS process, which had barely lifted off the ground three years ago when economic scandal, a succession of governments, and the conflict in neighboring Kosovo rocked the country. With relative calm restored, The Carter Center met with the Albanian president and prime minister as well as other political leaders, representatives from local nongovernmental organizations, and business leaders.

As the only intern among Center delegates on the two-week trip, Butler stayed busy. “I took notes at all the meetings E and transcribed those notes, and helped set up the field office in Tirana,” she says. “We found that for the most part everyone agreed that the NDS process could provide a valuable contribution to DUCATIONAL Albania, and this encouraged us to begin working to set up an office as quickly as possible,” she adds. While most of her time was spent in the capital, Tirana, Butler saw enough of the surrounding countryside to form a lasting impression. “It’s a very beautiful country,” she says. “It’s still a developing nation, but there are excellent restaurants, stores, Internet cafes, and a good chance that the person you encounter on the street will know enough English to tell you where to find them.” Since her experience, Butler has enrolled in the master’s program in international relations at Georgia Tech and plans to make economic development a career. After Tech, she expects to either work toward a Ph.D. or pursue a position with an

international development organization such as USAID (the United States Agency for International Development) or P CARE. “I’m definitely interested in developing nations and economies, and particularly in helping with those issues as they ROGRAMS affect women and children,” she explains. “I guess that sounds very idealistic, but somebody has to be idealistic!” ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ ○○○○○○○○○○○

Inventory Inventory consists of Mectizan tablets, which are used to treat river blindness. Inventory is received as an in-kind donation and is valued at market value at the time of the gift. Inventory is valued using the first-in, first-out method. ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Medication Due to Third Parties From time to time, CCI receives loans of medication from various parties for its River Blindness Program in Nigeria. These loans are received when CCI does not have sufficient inventory on hand to carry out its desired program activities and other organizations have excess inventory. As all such medication used in this program is provided to CCI and all other organizations directly by the manufacturer at no cost, any loans due are satisfied by future in-kind donations received from the manufacturer.

Net Assets Unrestricted As of August 31, 2000 and 1999, unrestricted net assets are as follows:

2000 1999

Unrealized gain on restricted endowment investments $ 56,677,928 $48,921,761 N Designated by the board of trustees for maintenance of property and equipment 500,000 500,000

Total $104,603,079 $87,503,248 TO

The board of trustees has authorized the designation of a portion of the unrestricted net assets for maintenance of property and equipment. The annual designation amount is $116,000. During 2000, the board’s executive committee decided to limit F

the Plant Maintenance Fund to a maximum of $500,000. INANCIAL Unrealized gains on restricted endowment investments (Note 5) are classified as increases in unrestricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets also include funds designated by management as additions to endowment and program funding. These amounts are classified as unrestricted net assets due to the lack of explicit donor stipulations which would temporarily or permanently restrict their use.

Temporarily Restricted As of August 31, 2000 and 1999, temporarily restricted net assets are available for the following purposes:

Permanently Restricted In 1989, CCI began its campaign to raise an endowment fund. An endowment fund represents a fund subject to restrictions of gif t instruments requiring that the principal of the fund be invested in perpetuity and only the income be used for operations. Per manently restricted net assets are invested in perpetuity, and the income from these assets is expendable to support any activities of C CI.

Cash and Cash Equivalents CCI’s cash equivalents represent liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Restricted cash is rest ricted by the donor for a specific purpose.

Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requir es management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of conti ngent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the rep orting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ○○○○○○○○○○○
