  • Family Comes First Breaks Down What Families Want Into Five Specific Features Representing a Transformed Justice System
    Comes ly Fi mi r a st F A Workbook to Transform the Justice System by Partnering With Families tice & T e h Jus Alli out anc r Y e F fo o n r Y g The Campaign for Youth Justice i ou a (CFYJ) is a national nonprofit organization t p working to end the practice of trying, sentencing, h m a and incarcerating youth in the adult criminal justice system. Ju Part of our work involves improving the juvenile justice system and s C t i e ensuring that youth and families have a voice in justice system reform c efforts. Through these efforts we have seen and heard first-hand the trouble e T that families face when dealing with the justice system and were approached by the Annie E. Casey Foundation to write this publication. CFYJ was started in 2005 by a family member whose child was being prosecuted in the adult system. Since our founding, we have placed a significant emphasis on making sure that youth and families who have been directly affected by the justice system are involved in our advocacy efforts. Becoming more family-focused means that everyone, including advocacy organizations such as ours, need to start working differently. We are responsive to families by making a concerted effort to meet the needs of families who call our offices looking for help, and we involve family members in discussions around our strategic goals and initiatives. One of the major components of our work is staffing and supporting the Alliance for Youth Justice, formerly known as the National Parent Caucus.

  • Music with a Message CHEERFULNESS, OPTIMISM
    Episode 1 Music with a Message CHEERFULNESS, OPTIMISM [BEGIN MUSIC] NARRATOR: There never was a greater time in the history of the world to live upon the earth than this. How grateful every one of us ought to feel for being alive in this wonderful time with all the marvelous blessings we have. And on top of that is the restoration of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ with all of the keys and authority, with all of the gifts and blessings, with all the organization and doctrine of all previous dispensations brought into one. And you and I are partakers of that marvelous restoration. Julie de Azevedo sings “Joy in the Journey” from the Especially for Youth album of the same name. (Music: Julie de Azevedo, “Joy in the Journey”) [END MUSIC] NARRATOR: “Wherefore, be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you; and ye shall bear record of me, even Jesus Christ, that I am the Son of the living God, that I was, that I am, and that I am to come” (D&C 68:6). [BEGIN MUSIC] NARRATOR: Good cheer is a state of mind or mood that promotes happiness or joy. With God’s help, good cheer permits us to rise above the depressing present or difficult circumstances. It is a process of positive reassurance and reinforcement. It is sunshine when clouds block the light. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square perform “Sunshine in My Soul” from the album “Then Sings My Soul.” (Music: Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square, “Sunshine in My Soul”) [END MUSIC] NARRATOR: I believe the Lord is saying to each of us, “Be happy.” [BEGIN MUSIC] 1 NARRATOR: The gospel is a thing of joy.

There are all kinds of ways that an individual can receive this type of injury. Today the topic normally centers on the injuries suffered by military service personnel or individuals involved in contact sports. The result of a TBI can be substantial requiring intensive long term intervention or it might be so subtle so as not to be considered serious by the injured person though subtle the injury or injuries are known to have an impact on how that person may function in the world around them.

  • Sisterz in Zion. Directed by Melissa Puente. REVIEWS FILM Provo, Utah: Brigham Young University; American Fork, Utah: Covenant Communications, 2006
    Sisterz in Zion. Directed by Melissa Puente. FILM REVIEWS Provo, Utah: Brigham Young University; American Fork, Utah: Covenant Communications, 2006 Reviewed by John M. Murphy and Leslee Thorne-Murphy he film Sisterz in Zion is a one-hour documentary following the T experiences of twenty-six young Latter-day Saint women from New York City who travel to Utah to attend a session of Especially for Youth at Brigham Young University. As one of their Young Women leaders, Renee Larson, remarks, these teenage girls are “really trying hard to be good Latter-day Saints—read their scriptures, pray, and do what Heavenly Father would want them to do—but they’ve never seen anybody else do it, and it’s like they’re making it up as they go along.” Their Church leaders hope that at EFY the young women will have the opportunity to be sur- rounded by youth who are striving to live the gospel. As another leader, Jaime Rasmussen, explains, “We wanted to create a connection [between these young women and] . other youth in the Church.” The film highlights the experiences of several young women. They live in various parts of New York City, come from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and participate in typical LDS youth activities, such as early-morning seminary and the Young Women program. In virtually every case, they are the only LDS teenagers in their schools, and they are all fairly recent converts to the LDS Church. Daisy Andino is from Honduras and immigrated with her family when she was ten years old.
