His Excellency. Governor Christopher T. Sununu and the Honorable Council Page 2 of 3 Funds are available in the following accounts for State Fiscal Year 2022, upon the. availability and continued appropriation of funds in the future operating budget, with the authority to adjust budget line items within the price limitation and encumbrances between state fiscal years through the Budget Office, if needed and justified. See attached fiscal details. EXPLANATION This request is Retroactive because funding provided through Amendment #3 ended in December of 2020, and due to ongoing need, the Contractors continued to provide services to families and caregivers who are affected by a substance use disorder or mental illness and are undergoing an assessment by DGYF. The Department became aware in early 2021 that additional support was need for non-substance use disorder families. However, after assessing various potential funding sources, additional funding from GOFERR was confirmed in May 2021, at which point the Department needed additional time to finalize budgets and fully execute contract documents for Governor and Executive Council approval. This retroactive action will allow the Contractors to bill for the services and support they provided to at-risk and high-risk families back to January 1, 2021. The Contractors will continue to provide the Strength to Succeed Program services to children, parents, and caregivers who are undergoing an assessment by DCYF, and are affected by a substance use disorder or mental illness as well as evidence-based curriculum to grandparents who are caring for a minor child as a result of DCYF involvement and parental substance use and/or mental illness. Approximately 115 families will be served through September 29, 2021. The Contractors will continue to provide programs that provide accessible, integrated services to reduce and mitigate childhood trauma that results from familial substance use. Core components of the Strength to Succeed program include rapid access to treatment for parents within DCYF reunification timeframe, DCYF Parent Partner peer support, home visiting services, direct prevention services to children to mitigate risk of substance misuse, and caregiver support for relative caregivers of children exposed to substance use in the home. The Department will continue to monitor contracted services by ensuring the Contractors: • Provide evidence-based home visiting sen/ices to all families referred to the program that require home visiting services as part of their treatment plan. • Increase training opportunities for the early childhood and home visiting workforce in substance misuse prevention, recovery, and trauma informed care by three (3) trainings per calendar year and increase the knowledge of substance misuse prevention, recovery and trauma informed care among the early childhood and home visiting workforce, as demonstrated by an increase of 10% in aggregate as measured quarterly from training pre-tests to training post-tests. • Ensure that 80% of families referred to the program receive access to treatment or interim treatment services within 48 hours of referral. • Collaborate with the Department on the development, reporting, and quality improvement efforts for additional performance measures and outcome indicators. His Excellency. Governor Chrfstopher T. Sununu and the Honorable Council Page 3 of 3 Should the Governor and Executive Council not authorize this request, children impacted by substance misuse and/or mental illness within their family may not receive ttte services and targeted prevention services necessary to support their current needs and to assist them with avoiding substance misuse issues themselves. In addition, relative caregivers impacted by familial substance misuse may not receive the senrices and supports that are necessary to continue to support the children in their families. Area served: Statewide In the event that the Other Funds become no longer available, General Funds will not be requested to support this program. Respectfully sutmiitted. Lori A.

  • "She Is Lost to Time and Place": Women, War Trauma, and the First World War
    “She is Lost to Time and Place”: Women, War Trauma, and the First World War A dissertation presented by Bridget E. Keown to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts April 2019 1 “She is Lost to Time and Place”: Women, War Trauma, and the First World War A dissertation presented by Bridget E. Keown Abstract of Dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University April 2019 2 Abstract This work investigates the gendered construction of war trauma during the First World War, and seeks to reclaim the experiences of those whose suffering was not included in established diagnoses and definitions. Specifically, I analyze British and Irish women’s testimonies and expressions of trauma as a result of their experiences during the First World War, and the manner in which their suffering was interpreted and treated by medical and military professionals. I conclude by discussing how women’s individual emotional suffering has been marginalized and forgotten in the history of the First World War. In my Introduction, I discuss the lack of data into women’s lived experiences and emotions during the First World War and up to the present day. This lack of awareness continues to harm women physically and psychologically. My first chapter looks at the origins of the modern study of trauma during the outbreak of the First World War.

  • Possible Titles
    In: Chia S.H., Harrison D. (Eds) (2011) tools for Continuing Professional Development. P.53-62. London: Quay Books. Chapter 5 Utilising broadcast media as a means for enhancing CPD Martin Watson Introduction The United Kingdom (UK) has a longstanding reputation for the high quality of its public broadcasting, including the transmission of materials which are tacitly or overtly „educational‟ in nature. This is epitomised by the radio and television output of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), as well as the development in the later 20th century of the Open University (OU). The latter has made deliberate use of BBC transmissions for delivery of learning materials into learners‟ homes. Irrespectively of whether it forms a formal part of OU provision*, there is much material available via radio and (to some extent) television broadcasts with the potential to inform and facilitate learning, including that of the viewing/listening allied health professional (AHP). One important issue perhaps is how such professionals can best engage with such media to contribute to their ongoing personal and professional development. The aim of this chapter is to provide a brief overview of how broadcast media can, through judicious interaction, make potentially useful contributions to an AHP‟s continuing professional development (CPD). It is not intended (necessarily) to be an excuse for health professionals to indulge in excessive amounts of television viewing (although the writer acknowledges his enthusiasm for radio listening, specifically BBC Radio 4). However, the chapter recognises that all potential opportunities for enhancing CPD should be recognised and utilised where feasible. This chapter is written mainly with UK based health professionals in mind.
