For more than a year, Americans have been losing jobs, investments, retirement funds and their homes at alarming rates. California has experienced the majority of foreclosures in the country and the state also has one of the highest unemployment rates nationwide. Recent statistics put the statewide percentage at 11.5 and rising. These are challenging times, but we are up to the challenge. Catholic Charities of Los Angeles is experiencing a 40% overall increase in service for help with housing, food, and basic needs. In all programs, the agency served over 290,000 individuals in the 2008-2009 fiscal year, up by about 70,000 from last year. This unusual rise in need has put pressure on the agency to provide more help and create more hope for more people. Staff are rising to the challenge by working even harder than usual and remaining optimistic. Whether it is by combining job responsibilities or by increasing volunteers’ hours, the dedicated management and staff of Catholic Charities are always looking for ways to reduce spending so that they can help more people. This Annual Report is in black and white, a deliberate choice to save money in printing costs. Such frugality has always informed Catholic Charities’ decisions, but does so, even more, during times such as these. The following pages demonstrate how the agency’s programs are facing current challenges. The programs are serving more people and are providing basic needs assistance in record numbers. You can discover more in-depth information about these programs at the newly redesigned Web site, www.CatholicCharitiesLA.org, which streamlines information about the agency and its life-changing programs. We hope that this updated Web site will help you get to know Catholic Charities better and allow you to get engaged with programs in your area. “I volunteer because I see the impact Catholic Charities makes The challenges ahead of us can seem overwhelming. However, by combining on people’s lives. I love being a professional competence with heartfelt concern, Catholic Charities will part of it.” meet the demands of our clients during these troubling times. We are grateful for staff, volunteers and donors who reach out to those in need – Volunteer at Elizabeth Ann with a true spirit of service. Seton Residence 3 C ARDINAL R OGER M.

Kanne, Jr., R.I.P., 6/09 5 Archdiocesan Youth Employment (AYE) Challenge: Training Disadvantaged Youth for the Workforce The goal of youth employment services is to improve the course of individual lives, while empowering and improving communities as a whole. Catholic Charities’ Archdiocesan Youth Employment program (AYE) offers education, work experience and career guidance for youth, ages 14-24, from impoverished neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Paid jobs and internships, work skills, mentoring, career guidance and life skills training are essential components of this transformational program. Lives that were once headed to the welfare line or to jail are permanently changed, for the better, by these comprehensive services. AYE emphasizes education. Clients graduate from high school or obtain a GED, then complete vocational training, or enroll in college. All jobs and internships are in fields that provide promising career paths and the program offers exposure to a variety of careers. Youth Employment – A Year in Review ◆ AYE served over 1,700 youth in both summer and year-round employment programs in the fiscal year 2008-2009. ◆ Through the Youth Build program, 55 clients have been working in the construction and building trades, learning valuable skills and planning for long-term careers. ◆ Paid internships in the summer of 2008 offered 140 hours of training with both for-profit and non-profit organizations. Such training gives youth a platform from which they can create career plans. ◆ Of the 206 youth who needed to complete high school to obtain a diploma, 85% successfully graduated with diploma in hand. Considering Los Angeles County’s dropout rate of 55%, this percentage is extraordinary. ◆ One hundred clients in the program transitioned directly from skills training to full- time employment. “This experience has made me become more responsible and assertive. I recommend others consider AYE for themselves because it has left a deep, positive impact on me.” – AYE Client 6 Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Challenge: Encouraging Physical Activity and Team Work In difficult times, children set the best example of how to relieve stress, by playing. Through Catholic Charities’ Catholic Youth Organization (CYO), K-8 grade school students build confidence and learn the values of discipline, goal setting and inner strength while staying healthy and having fun. Sports are offered at over 160 Catholic schools throughout Los Angeles County at B, C and Varsity levels. In fiscal year 2008-2009, the new CYO soccer program was a great success with the help of continued support from the LA 84 Foundation. Available to boys and girls in grades 6 through 8, the soccer program is just one example of how CYO provides opportunities for children to exercise and learn valuable life skills without financially burdening families. Playing sports through CYO changes the course of many lives by providing leadership opportunities and encouraging life-long healthy habits. CYO - A Year in Review ◆ Sports offered: Bowling Flag Football Softball Basketball Golf Track & Field Cheer & Song Soccer Volleyball ◆ Over 160 K-8 grade schools hosted CYO programs. ◆ 25,108 youth participated ◆ 18,339 competitions were held ◆ CYO implemented the “Parent like a Champion” program to train parents in how they should respond at sporting events. The program was developed by the University of Notre Dame. “CYO is providing cost-effective activities for families who cannot afford club sports.” –

This thesis studies the rise of violence in SLO, its causation, and effects. The vigilance committee of 1858 represents the culmination of the violence that came from sweeping changes in the region, stemming from its earliest conquest by the Spanish. The mounting violence built upon itself as extensive changes took place. These changes include the conquest of California, from the Spanish mission period, Mexican and Alvarado revolutions, Mexican-American War, and the Gold Rush. The history of the county is explored until 1863 to garner an understanding of the borderlands violence therein. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………... 1 PART I - CAUSATION…………………………………………………… 12 HISTORIOGRAPHY……………………………………………........ 12 BEFORE CONQUEST………………………………………..…….. 21 WAR……………………………………………………………..……. 36 GOLD RUSH……………………………………………………..….. 42 LACK OF LAW…………………………………………………….…. 45 RACIAL DISTRUST………………………………………………..... 50 OUTSIDE INFLUENCE………………………………………………58 LOCAL CRIME………………………………………………………..67 CONCLUSION……………………………………………………….

The letter has many inaccuracies and does not understand the process the City used, i.e., the emergency ordinance adopted by the City Council, however, it does threaten legal action against the City if you vote to remove and store the statue. Without commenting publicly on the merit or lack of merit of these claims, I want to suggest that there is a separate and independent basis for its removal and storage at this time-security and safety of the statue itself.

Control of Alta California shifted to Mexico in the 1820s and to America in the 1840s. Some of the communities that grew around the missions became major cities; some missions were abandoned and later reconstructed. Portions of El Camino Real, the road connecting the missions, became interstate or state highways. Mission San Juan Bautista was the fifteenth mission to be established, in 1797. Despite repeated damage from earthquakes on the adjacent San Andreas Fault, Mission San Juan Bautista was never moved from its original location and has been in continuous use as a church since its establishment. Its environs are still largely agricultural, its plaza has been restored to the spirit of its 1870 state, and its adjacent portion of El Camino Real is still unpaved.

  • Report to the People of God
    ADDENDUM TO THE REPORT TO THE PEOPLE OF GOD On February 17, 2004, the Archdiocese published its Report to the People of God: Clergy Sexual Abuse Archdiocese of Los Angeles 1930-2003. The Report was an essential part of the Archdiocese’s ongoing effort to promote healing and reconciliation for victims, their families, and the entire Church community, all of whom suffered as a result of sexual abuse by priests, deacons, members of religious orders and others serving our Archdiocese over the years. In detail, the Report explained procedures that the Archdiocese had put in place to safeguard our children by dealing forcefully with abuse. The Report also set out, without attempt to excuse mistakes that were made, the often painful history of how the Archdiocese’s understanding of the problem of sexual abuse evolved over the years, from the time when it was treated primarily as a moral weakness and a sin to the adoption, in 2002, of a firm policy of zero tolerance. This Addendum is an update to the Report. It has three sections: · The first section provides the most current information about the many educational programs and training sessions the Archdiocese has developed and implemented to safeguard children and how we are dealing with reports of abuse. · The second section consists of a list of 26 priests with allegations of sexual abuse against them that have come to our attention since the Appendix to the Report was last updated. For the sake of full disclosure and transparency, the Archdiocese continues to list all priests who have been accused with evidence that if true would constitute child sexual abuse, even when law enforcement or the Clergy Misconduct Oversight Board have found the charges to be unsubstantiated.
