This gathering is always special, but this year, after everything we have all been through, it feels especially momentous for our community to come together in the spirit of fellowship, support, and education. I am particularly excited about this year’s program. This week, you have the opportunity to choose from over 200 sessions and earn up to 24.5 hours of continuing education. Plus, RISE21 sessions reflect the key issues facing treatment courts today and feature many of our most popular and engaging presenters. Topics highlighted this year include: • Equity and inclusion • Alternatives to jail sanctions • Legalized marijuana and treatment courts • Law enforcement in the 21st century • Veterans and trauma Of course, RISE21 also features a dynamic opening ceremony celebrating treatment court stories and the powerful role they play in creating empathy and understanding. And our All Rise ceremony will honor treatment court heroes and feature a stirring keynote by a surprise guest. You will not want to miss the RISE Film Festival featuring two extraordinary films that offer us a deeper understanding of our work and the world around us. As a field, we continue to grow, adapt, and thrive – often under difficult circumstances. I hope you view the next four days as a chance to reconnect, recharge, and have some well-earned fun. Thank you for all you do. I look forward to learning from you this week.

TODAY’S SELFISH PANDEMIC Seven years ago, Richard Lui walked into his supervisor’s office at NBC’s 30 Rock headquarters, prepared to give up his dream job. Having just learned of his father’s Alzheimer’s, the news anchor wanted to be with him during his important last years, even if it meant setting aside his career. So Lui reduced his work hours and joined 53 million Americans in becoming a family caregiver. In his new book, Enough About Me: The Unexpected Power of Selflessness, Lui opens up about ​ ​ helping his father and living to take care of somebody else. He couples his story with research and tips on how and why living selflessly can bring joy despite difficulty. Today, Lui observes, America suffers from a selfish pandemic. There is an apathy problem — from everyday Twitter disrespect to a rise in hate crimes. Lui reflects on his recent reporting on race-based violence, spree killers, and political animosity as some examples of how he’s seen in his stories selfish acts rise in frequency.

  • 2011 State of the News Media Report
    Overview By Tom Rosenstiel and Amy Mitchell of the Project for Excellence in Journalism By several measures, the state of the American news media improved in 2010. After two dreadful years, most sectors of the industry saw revenue begin to recover. With some notable exceptions, cutbacks in newsrooms eased. And while still more talk than action, some experiments with new revenue models began to show signs of blossoming. Among the major sectors, only newspapers suffered continued revenue declines last year—an unmistakable sign that the structural economic problems facing newspapers are more severe than those of other media. When the final tallies are in, we estimate 1,000 to 1,500 more newsroom jobs will have been lost—meaning newspaper newsrooms are 30% smaller than in 2000. Beneath all this, however, a more fundamental challenge to journalism became clearer in the last year. The biggest issue ahead may not be lack of audience or even lack of new revenue experiments. It may be that in the digital realm the news industry is no longer in control of its own future. News organizations — old and new — still produce most of the content audiences consume. But each technological advance has added a new layer of complexity—and a new set of players—in connecting that content to consumers and advertisers. In the digital space, the organizations that produce the news increasingly rely on independent networks to sell their ads. They depend on aggregators (such as Google) and social networks (such as Facebook) to bring them a substantial portion of their audience. And now, as news consumption becomes more mobile, news companies must follow the rules of device makers (such as Apple) and software developers (Google again) to deliver their content.
