VOTE: Yes: Burmeister, Kittle, Knight, McDaniel, Mitchell, Verbeke No: None Resolution No. 17.01.010 Motion Carried (6 - 0) 5. APPOINTMENTS AND PRESENTATIONS 5a. Presentation - Oakland University Senior Services PT Partnership Karen Adcock, Director of Senior Services, presented an update on their partnership with Oakland University and their physical therapy program. She noted that it has been a phenomenal experience. The partnership falls within the arena of the City goals to enhance academic and age friendly community initiatives and the age friendly community for a lifetime initiative of healthy living and educating residents on health services. Dr. Sara Arena, Assistant Professors in the Physical Therapy Program, explained that the initial project was back in August. Health care demands are critically stressing the communities and there is an urgent need for preventative services. Currently the home care practice model focuses on those already unable to leave their homes, but does not look at a prevention model. The City of Auburn Hills is the first community to have this age friendly community network. She explained the goals of the program and noted that the referrals are coming from the Community Center Senior Services. City Council Draft Minutes January 23, 2017 Page 2 The program is for individuals 65 and older at risk for decline in community dwelling status and have not had any serious hospitalizations or physical therapy in the last two months. The participants receive six free physical therapy visits, education related to health improvements, and wellness program coaching. The grant received in August allows for participation of up to five individuals. Dr. Chris Wilson, Assistant Professor in the Physical Therapy Program, explained that an additional grant was received to expand the program to include up to thirty additional residents. Recruiting of participants will begin on February 1st. He explained that the participants will receive a mixture of six home heath physical therapy and tele-health phone calls, plus education on health risks and referrals to other medical professionals as needed. Dr. Wilson explained that some of the intervention topics that the participants receive include a standard set of balance and fall exercises, home safety assessment, health wellness safety, diet and nutrition, any home modifications and the referral back to the senior center for continued wellness and health once they have gotten past that homebound status to reintegrate into the community. The long term benefits to the participants include improved health, more confidence, decreased risk of hospitalization and disease. In addition, they receive a free automated blood pressure cuff and an activity monitor. The long term benefits to the healthcare system includes less long term demand and strain on current health care and advancing the care infrastructure. Ms. Verbeke clarified that it is thirty additional people in addition to the five identified. If people are interested in participating, they would contact Karen at the Senior Center at 248.370.9353. Ms. Mitchell echoed the sentiments about not enough focus being placed upon preventative care, nor is there enough focus on academic and municipal partnerships. For that reason, she is in very strong support of this project. If there is anything else they can do as a Council to be supportive, do not hesitate to come forward and ask. 5b. Motion - Appointment of Michael Kneffel to the Tax Increment Finance Authority Board of Directors. Mayor McDaniel noted that Council has received a copy of Mr. Kneffel’s application and resume. Mr. Kneffel introduced himself and noted that he has lived in Auburn Hills for 25 years and has seen some exciting improvements. He stated that he is excited at the opportunity to help keep up the momentum.

Supporting the success of our students goes far beyond just making sure they know how to add fractions or write a persuasive essay—students also need to know how to work in teams, how to problem solve and how to work toward a goal. City Year AmeriCorps members model these behaviors and mindsets for students while partnering with teachers and schools to create supportive learning environments where students feel a sense of belonging and agency as they develop the social, emotional and academic skills that will help them succeed in and out of school.

  • The CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ Aims to Rally The
    The CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ aims to rally the business community to advance diversity & inclusion within the workplace by working collectively across organizations and sectors. It outlines a specific set of actions the undersigned companies will take to cultivate a trusting environment where all ideas are welcomed and employees feel comfortable and empowered to discuss diversity & inclusion. All the signatories serve as leaders of their companies and have committed to implementing the following pledge within their workplaces. Where companies have already implemented one or several of the commitments, the undersigned commit to support other companies in doing the same. The persistent inequities across our country underscore our urgent, national need to address and alleviate racial, ethnic and other tensions and to promote diversity within our communities. As leaders of some of America’s largest corporations, we manage thousands of employees and play a critical role in ensuring that inclusion is core to our workplace culture and that our businesses are representative of the communities we serve. Moreover, we know that diversity is good for the economy; it improves corporate performance, drives growth and enhances employee engagement. Simply put, organizations with diverse teams perform better. We recognize that diversity & inclusion are multifaceted issues and that we need to tackle these subjects holistically to better engage and support all underrepresented groups within business. To do this, we believe we also need to address honestly and head-on the concerns and needs of our diverse employees and increase equity for all, including Blacks, Latinos, Asians, Native Americans, LGBTQ, disabled, veterans and women.

One of the main differences is in the use of foreign players, which remains a controversial topic in a sport where two- thirds of the top 125 players now are imports. The Naval Academy has never had a foreign player. Boise State has only one, even though coach Greg Patton said, "I tell them California is a suburb of Boise, Idaho." The Longhorns have a Tex-Mex and international mix. Then there's Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Even though Corpus Christi has had a large public tennis center for more than 40 years, the Islanders don't have one player from their city, or even from the state of Texas. Nor do they have one from this country or even this continent. In fact, it would just about take a globe and a tape measure to figure out which Islanders are closest and farthest away from home. The Islanders have two players from Guayaquil, Ecuador, a pair from Barcelona, Spain, two Russians and players from Belarus and the Slovak Republic.
