FORMATTING- Networker Spring 2017.Indd The Volume 31, Issue 1 Spring 2017 Networker Newsletter of Catholic Charities North Dakota Celebrating 30 Years of Guardianship Services at Catholic Charities North Dakota The Guardianship Division at Catholic Charities North Dakota is celebrating its 30th anniversary of service. As a result of the ARC lawsuit in 1980, many people with intellectual disabilities began moving from the state institution in Grafton to community based services throughout North Dakota. It was found that a number of people were ready to move but needed the support of a guardian to help make informed decisions on their behalf. The Department of Human Services issued a Request for Proposal in the mid-1980’s asking that a program be developed which would serve as corporate guardians for individuals who Paul Griffin, former Director of Guardianship Services, and RogerSchwinghammer, did not have family or friends available former Executive Director, are shown in this file photo from 1998. Paul and Roger to be their guardian. In 1986, our agency were instrumental in the development of the Guardianship program for Adults with was awarded the contract because Roger Intellectual Disabilities. Schwinghammer, Executive Director, had the vision and belief that this program fit the mission of Catholic Charities North Dakota. Paul Griffin became the Supervisor of the Guardianship Program and he brought this vision to life. Paul started with a blank slate as there were no programs of this nature in North Dakota and he developed all of the policies and procedures. Under Paul’s leadership, a program was built that is based on integrity, advocacy, compassion and quality of service where the best interest of the person is paramount. In 1987, courts began appointing Catholic Charities North Dakota guardian. Since then, we have served as guardian for 920 individuals with intellectual disabilities. We currently serve as guardian for more than 448 people with intellectual disabilities with 109 more on our wait list. Since our beginning in 1987, we continue to live the mission of Catholic Charities ND by serving people in need and advocating for the common good of all. Roger and Paul set the gold standard for guardianship services and Karla Johnson, Donna Byzewski and our 14 guardianship workers (including Sue Dokken, guardianship worker and Jeanne Helmers, support staff, who have been with the Guardianship Division from its start) continue to work each and every day to advocate, empower and positively impact the lives of the people we serve.

I have worked in a Fargo drug court program, with runaway and Kris Haycraft homeless youth and with court-involved youth and their families. In February 2016, I came Program Director to Catholic Charities North Dakota as the Director of Pregnancy, Parenting, and Adoption Program. It is a blessing to be able to work for an organization where my faith is supported. I have been married for almost 17 years to my fabulous husband and we have three wonderful boys ages 11, 8, and 3. Our family has an unusual pet named Spikey. Spikey is a bearded dragon who has been part of the family for about a year. It wasn’t until last week that we figured out that Spikey is a girl so she might be getting a new name soon. My family loves to be outside and active. In the summer we enjoy time at our cabin on the lake – where the boys have a chance to ‘rough it’ and have time away from electronics. I am really excited about being a Young Life (non-denominational youth group) volunteer in our home town and have enjoyed getting to know the high school students as well as the other amazing volunteers. In the past year, I have been touched by many “God moments,” such as when a birth mom has chosen the perfect match as the adoptive family for her child and I get to watch two families become one or when I have been searching for a birth mom to ask if she would be interested in contact with the child who had been placed for adoption and she happens to call me for an unrelated matter. Every day I get to see God’s Hands at work!

    Federalism and State Legislative Opposition to the Affordable Care Act: The Political Value of Legal Strategy ILARIA DI GIOIA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Birmingham City University February 2018 Faculty of Business, Law and Social Sciences ii Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intense research and study. I have, throughout these years, taken significant time away from family and friends to be able to concentrate and arrive to the end of this journey. I could not have succeeded without their support and understanding. I am especially grateful to my other half, Aqeel, who always finds the way to cheer me up and to my parents, Aldo and Milena, who believed in me and provided the financial means to begin this extraordinary journey. This dissertation would never have been completed without the generous support of Birmingham City University that awarded a three years Graduate Teaching Assistant bursary and funding to attend at least five conferences abroad. I would also like to thank the American Politics Group of the Political Science Association and Prof. Philip Davies who believed in my project and funded a very productive research trip to the headquarters of the National Conference of State Legislature (NCSL) in Denver, CO. My data collection would have been much more difficult without access to the StateNet database kindly accorded to me by Richard Cauchi, Health Program Director at NCSL. A special debt of gratitude must be expressed to my supervisor Dr. Anne Richardson Oakes, always present and ready to offer invaluable insights and suggestions.

  • HISTORY of the NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE for GIRL SCOUTS and CAMP FIRE by Virginia Reed
    Revised 3/11/2019 HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE FOR GIRL SCOUTS AND CAMP FIRE By Virginia Reed The present National Catholic Committee for Girl Scouts and Camp Fire dates back to the early days of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) and the National Catholic Welfare Conference. Although it has functioned in various capacities and under several different names, this committee's purpose has remained the same: to minister to the Catholic girls in Girl Scouts (at first) and Camp Fire (since 1973). Beginnings The relationship between Girl Scouting and Catholic youth ministry is the result of the foresight of Juliette Gordon Low. Soon after founding the Girl Scout movement in 1912, Low traveled to Baltimore to meet James Cardinal Gibbons and consult with him about her project. Five years later, Joseph Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York appointed a representative to the Girl Scout National Board of Directors. The cardinal wanted to determine whether the Girl Scout program, which was so fine in theory, was equally sound in practice. Satisfied on this point, His Eminence publicly declared the program suitable for Catholic girls. In due course, the four U.S. Cardinals and the U.S. Catholic hierarchy followed suit. In the early 1920's, Girl Scout troops were formed in parochial schools and Catholic women eagerly became leaders in the program. When CYO was established in the early 1930's, Girl Scouting became its ally as a separate cooperative enterprise. In 1936, sociologist Father Edward Roberts Moore of Catholic charities, Archdiocese of New York, studied and approved the Girl Scout program because it was fitting for girls to beome "participating citizens in a modern, social democracy." This support further enhanced the relationship between the Catholic church and Girl Scouting.
