  • Re-Directing Users of Shelter to Housing (RUSH) Program Evaluation
    Re-directing Users of Shelter to Housing Program Evaluation August 2018 Dana DeMaster, Ramsey County Health and Wellness Administration Research and Evaluation Unit RAMSEY COUNTY Acknowledgements We would like to acknowledge Ramsey RUSH partner agencies for their assistance with this evaluation, in particular Tonya Lennox of Catholic Charities and Zach Wolfgram of Radias Health who facilitated and scheduled participation of their clients in the survey. Many Catholic Charities staff and managers helped arrange surveys and their assistance is appreciated. We would also like to thank Myisha Holley, intern, with Ramsey County Health and Wellness Administration for her assistance conducting interviews. Finally, we would especially like to thank the Ramsey RUSH clients who agreed to participate and spent their time sharing their experiences and feedback. Dana DeMaster, principal evaluator RAMSEY COUNTY Executive Summary The Re-directing Users of Shelter to Housing (RUSH) is a project to move the top 100 longest users of Catholic Charities Dorothy Day/Higher Ground shelter and the top 50 longest users of the Union Gospel Mission (UGM) shelter into permanent housing. In the summer of 2016, the Saint Paul Foundation convened a group to plan and design the project. This step was taken based upon the success of Hennepin County’s Top 51 project that moved its longest shelter users into housing and the opening of Higher Ground anticipated for January 2017. The mission of Ramsey RUSH is to “engage long-term shelter users in Ramsey County in transitioning to stable housing while opening access to emergency shelters.” The goals of the project are: • Move the top shelter users into permanent housing, • Increase the number of shelter beds available to people in need of emergency housing, and • Recommend policy and systems changes that result in a more sustainable shelter system that better meets emergency shelter needs.

S.,February 2015, Common Room end line report; MFS II country evaluations, Civil Society component, Centre for Development Innovation, Wageningen UR (University & Research centre) and SurveyMETER. Report CDI-15-061. Wageningen. This report describes the findings of the end line assessment of the Indonesian organisation Common Room that is a partner of Hivos. The evaluation was commissioned by NWO-WOTRO, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research in the Netherlands and is part of the programmatic evaluation of the Co-Financing System - MFS II financed by the Dutch Government, whose overall aim is to strengthen civil society in the South as a building block for structural poverty reduction. Apart from assessing impact on MDGs, the evaluation also assesses the contribution of the Dutch Co-Funding Agencies to strengthen the capacities of their Southern Partners, as well as the contribution of these partners towards building a vibrant civil society arena. This report assesses Common Room’s contribution towards strengthening Civil Society in Indonesia and for this exercise it used the CIVICUS analytical framework. It is a follow-up of a baseline study conducted in 2012. Key questions that are being answered comprise changes in the five CIVICUS dimensions to which Common Room contributed; the nature of its contribution; the relevance of the contribution made and an identification of factors that explain Common Room’s role in civil society strengthening.

  • 5 Innovative Furniture Solutions
    5 Innovative Furniture Solutions By Benna Crawford A small- to medium-size business should have workspaces that encourage efficiency and productivity, while being cost effective. You don’t need the resources of a venture capitalist to design a work environment that’s economical, high-style, low maintenance and environmentally friendly. Cool, collaborative, convertible and comfortable are some of the new ideas to drive your decor. A Chair That Has Your Back The well-designed desk chair comes in every material from bonded leather to space-age synthetics. But trendy or traditional, it should perform a few key func- tions. An adjustable back that shifts hips forward, aligns spine and shoulders, and provides good lumbar support is critical. Mesh delivers open-air comfort; tilted waterfall cushions reduce stress on legs and promote healthy circulation. An armless chair makes wheeling in and out of tight spaces a breeze. Kneeling chairs encourage constant slight movement and naturally upright spines. Offer several choices among ergonomically-designed chairs to keep employees healthier and happier. Easy to Be Green You want your workplace to be green and sustainable. So invest in green furni- ture. Innovations in recycling, remanufacturing and clean design maximize your use of space, minimize exposure to harmful chemicals, keep material out of land- fills, perform multiple functions and reflect your office style. Sleek, powder-coated or melamine-laminate desk units join to form “L” or “U” shapes and reconfigure to add separate file cabinets, keyboard trays, extra drawers and shelves, or a bulletin board. An open “window” in a matching, attached hutch keeps office communication going when two desks are pushed back-to-back.

  • Wick House Furnishing Study, Morristown National Historical Park
    MORRISTOWN NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK WICK HOUSE FURNISHING STUDY JULY 1971 MORRISTOWN NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK WICK HOUSE FURNISHING STUDY by RICARDO TORRES-REYES OFFICE OF HISTORY AND HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE EASTERN SERVICE CENTER WASHINGTON, D. C. APRIL 1971 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE FOREWORD According to the Resource Study Proposal that authorized the preparation of this furnishing study, the Wick House served as the quarters of Major General Arthur St. Clair during the winter encamp­ ment of 1779-80. "A comprehensive study is needed to determine the, furnishings of the 18th century farm house, especially during its use as military quarters. This study will serve as the basis for a definitive furnishing plan for this key point of interpretation." The furnishing plan should be based in both past studies and more recent knowledge. In 1936, after the Wick House was restored, Historical Tech­ nician Vernon G. Setser and Junior Historian Lloyd W. Biebigheiser perpared a report on the furnishings of the house. It was put together as a tentative and suggestive guide for plans to furnish the house as a colonial home of the period of the American Revo­ lution. The report contained the best sources of information avail­ able, which were the property inventories of Henry and Mary Wick, and for comparative purposes, a number of inventories of Morris County residents of the same period. Also included were photographs of New England furniture because these were more readily available and also because the Wicks were of New England origin, a fact that was conspicuously reflected in the architectural style of the house.

Book fans and movie-goers alike have dreamed of attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to be sorted into one of the four houses. Gryffindors are brave, Hufflepuffs are loyal, Ravenclaws are clever, and Slytherins are ambitious; but are all four houses treated equally? Harry Potter is a Gryffindor, and it is from his perspective that the books are written. This gives the other three houses an unfair disadvantage when it comes to establishing brands.
