OPENING STATEMENT OF HON. ORRIN G. HATCH, A U.S. SENATOR FROM THE STATE OF UTAH Chairman HATCH. Let’s call this committee hearing to order. Good afternoon, we welcome you all to this hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee. I’m holding these hearings both here and in Cedar City examining the existing and emerging threats posed by illicit drugs to Utah’s young people. I’m glad to see so many people here who are as committed, as I am, to focussing attention, educational, and law enforcement re- sources on combating this problem. Let me just recognize some of the very important people we have in attendance today. Joe Green, if you could stand so everybody knows who you are. Joe is doing a great job, we appreciate having you here. Steve Branch, officer in charge of the Salt Lake City Education Service, also doing a great job for us. Greg Deardon, who I have a great deal of admiration for. Greg is over here, the commissioner for the Department of Public Safety for the State of Utah, he’s doing a great job. Camille Anthony. Where’s Camille? Back in the back. Camille is the executive commissioner of Criminal Juvenile Justice. Randal Anderson, U.S. Marshal. Where’s Randy? There he is. We’re honored to have you here. He’s doing a terrific job as U.S. Marshal, one of the best employments we’ve ever made, I think. Margaret Nadol. Margaret, you bet. Margaret is the Young Wom- en’s General President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and she has a tremendous influence over our youth all over the country, especially here in Utah. Mayor Janice Auger, the mayor of Taylorsville, doing some very interesting work in this area. And we’re grateful to have all of you here today. Now, the goal of today’s hearing is to begin a public dialogue on how we can work together to combat the too-little-known dangers of a growing substance abuse problem in our country, but most of (1) VerDate 11-MAY-2000 02:04 Sep 13, 2001 Jkt 073821 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 E:\HR\OC\C821.XXX pfrm03 PsN: C821 2 all in our community. A lot of Utahns don’t realize how significant and serious this is. Most Utahns have never heard of methamphetamine. We know meth is a horrible drug and the labs where it’s manufactured are producing tremendously toxic chemicals that pose risks to whole neighborhoods. Meth’s association with criminal gangs is also very well known. The cycle of drug abuse and gang violence is readily apparent to our fellow Utahns, and to deal with our gang problem we also have to deal with a drug problem. Fewer, however, are aware meth is just one of the so-called, ‘‘club drugs,’’ that are beginning to attract a whole new group of young people in Utah. The drugs known as ‘‘club drugs’’ include meth- amphetamine, Ecstasy, GHB and Rohypnol, and are often used at parties or night clubs. The symptoms of club drug use are showing up everywhere. Utah’s emergency rooms, police departments, schools, and rape cri- sis centers have experienced increases in reported cases, and tragic consequences, of this drug use or should we say abuse. The Utah Rape Recovery Center, for example, received reports of 40 rapes so far this year that are suspected to have involved the club drug called GHB. That figure represents 35 percent of rapes reported to the center this year. Meanwhile, last year, 7.3 percent of Utah high school students reported having used methamphet- amine at least once, and according to the Drug Enforcement Agen- cy (the DEA), law enforcement authorities seized 266 methamphet- amine labs in Utah in 1999. A special danger inherent in these drugs is the fact that many users of club drugs would not consider taking cocaine, LSD, heroin, or marijuana, drugs that are perceived to be more dangerous. But because of misinformation about the risks, these young people knowingly ingest such substances as GHB, so-called ‘‘date rape’’ drug, and are experiencing the problems associated with illicit drug abuse, including overdose, addiction, amnesia, sexual assault, and permanent brain damage. The lack of public awareness about club drugs is luring a whole new population of Utah’s young people into the horrible consequences of illicit drug use. Methamphetamine is a powerfully addictive stimulant that pro- duces increased wakefulness, increased physical activity, decreased appetite, increased respiration, hyperthermia, and euphoria. It can cause convulsions and can result in death. Ecstasy is a synthetic, mind-altering drug with amphetamine- like and hallucinogenic properties. Ecstasy has no accepted medical use and it causes health problems similar to those caused by the use of amphetamines and cocaine. Psychological difficulties

  • UCASA 2005 Annual Report
    PRESS KIT FOR MEDIA PROFESSIONALS REPORTING ON SEXUAL ASSAULT Dear Media Professional: The Utah Coalition Against Sexual Assault (UCASA) is committed to advancing a society in which sexual violence is not tolerated. As a member of Utah’s media, you can help as you report on sexually violent crime in the state. This press kit provides sexual assault resources, facts, and tips on interviewing survivors of sexual violence. Unfortunately many myths about sexual assault are still prevalent in our culture and society and those myths may stand in the way of victims and perpetrators of sexual assault from getting the help they need. Rape and sexual assault victims in Utah are 90 percent more likely to be attacked by someone they know than a stranger. Victims and perpetrators of sexual assault can be young or old, male or female, straight or gay, wealthy or poor — sexual assault is a crime that doesn’t discriminate. By educating yourself on the dynamics and facts about sexual assault in Utah and the nation, you can help inform and educate the public about this crime and help advance a society that will not tolerate sexual violence. UCASA is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization and is the only organization of its kind addressing sexual violence issues statewide. UCASA serves as an umbrella coalition for rape crisis programs, victim advocate programs, and institutions and organizations that respond and provide services to victims of sexual violence. UCASA provides training and resources, and fosters a sense of community and statewide support. UCASA believes that through social change we can influence attitudes, beliefs and standards that will change people’s behavior from ignoring, excusing, condoning and even encouraging sexual violence to taking action, intervening, and promoting respect, safety and equality.

San Juan County et al. 2:12-cv-00039 CW, United States District Court for the District of Utah I, Garth Massey, declare the following: Personal Background and Research Qualifications Relevant to this Report I am an Emeritus Professor of International Studies (now Global and Area Studies) at the University of Wyoming. I was the director of the International Studies Program 1998-2008 when I retired from my position. My BA degree was awarded by the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1970. I earned the doctoral degree from Indiana University in 1975. The previous year, 1974, I joined the faculty of the University of Wyoming and remained a faculty member in the Department of Sociology at that university for three decades. My current curriculum vita is attached containing more details about my career, publications and other scholarly writing, research grants funded, and contact information. I have devoted most of my scholarly work in comparative sociological and interdisciplinary research to the topics of rural social change, social inequality, labor and work-related issues, and after 1988, interethnic relations and ethnic conflict. I have received fellowships, research grants and sabbatical leaves in order to carry out research in several parts of the world: Eastern Europe (Hungary and the former Yugoslavia), Africa (Tanzania and Somalia), and the Middle East (Israel and Palestine). My original interest in social change led to research projects in Wyoming communities that focused on energy-related community impact and changes in Wyoming’s labor force.

  • Salt Lake County FHEA: Section 4
    SECTION IV DISPARITIES IN OPPORTUNITY Introduction The objective of this section of the FHEA is best expressed in the following quote from HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan. Sustainability also means creating “geographies of opportunity,” places that effectively connect people to jobs, quality public schools and other amenities. Today too many HUD-assisted families are stuck in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty and segregation, where one’s zip code predicts poor education, employment and even health outcomes. These neighborhoods are not sustainable in their present state. The data, tables and figures in this section provide current and historical context for evaluating equity and opportunity in the cities and neighborhoods of Salt Lake County. Ultimately the information developed in the FHEA regarding neighborhood disparities in opportunity will be integrated into the community development strategy to enhance equity and opportunity. Opportunity Index HUD provided an opportunity index to quantify the number of important liabilities and assets that influence the ability of an individual, or family, to access and capitalize on opportunity. HUD created five indices; school proficiency, poverty, labor market, housing stability and job access. With these five measures, a single index score or composite score for opportunity was calculated for each census tract by HUD. Using the census tract data BEBR created an average opportunity score and scores for all opportunity dimensions for the county and each city. These scores were calculated at the
