CHRONICLE May 2017 CHRONICLE May 2017 Inaugural RUMC 5K Run/Walk is a Runaway Success! Although the weather April 1st was cold and damp, the chill in the air did nothing to dampen the spirits of those who participated in the inaugural edition of the RUMC 5K Run Walk, held on the medical center’s campus and in the surrounding neighborhoods of Snug Harbor and West Brighton. After the physical activities concluded, participants warmed their spirts with authentic German food and beer donated by our neighbors on Castleton Avenue, the Nurnberger Bierhalle. Warm memories aside, the day was a success simply by the numbers. Fundraising, which had a goal to raise $25,000 to benefit the Pediatric Unit of the new Emergency Department, far exceeded expectations by raising $37,000 from 374 donations. Participation came from across the borough’s community and especially members of the medical center family with employees from nearly every department, along with members of the Board of Trustees and Senior Leadership. Over 350 runners/ walkers participated with 26 teams being organized! While there were male and female winners in different age categories, the overall 1st place winners were Joe Brancale and Jennifer Marano. A full list of finishers are available online at: http://my1.raceresult.com/70905/?lang. Led by Laura Gajda, Executive Director of the medical center’s foundation and Vice President of Development, and Krista Desiderio, Senior Grant and Development Specialist , a dedicated team of employees and volunteers were responsible for pulling off such a large and successful event. A special thank you to all of the runners, walkers, sponsors, NYPD, Richmond University staff and our West Brighton/Snug Harbor neighbors for their support! Thank you to our volunteers: Angie Conte, Joanne Navarro, Jenna Coscia, Brandon Fusco, Caitlin Garcia, Jillian Umahag and Darryl Peterson. A special thank you must also be given to Foundation Board member Marcello Sciarrino and Island Auto Group for generously serving as event sponsor for the run/walk. All participants who donated or fundraised over $500 received a prize and those individuals and teams who raised over $1,000 will receive special recognition in the new ED lobby.

  • Clinical Research – a Journey Toward Diversity
    September Accelerated Cure Project for MS 2017 Accelerating research towards a cure for multiple sclerosis Clinical Research – A Journey Toward Diversity Clinical trials are an essential part of the drug development process. Regulatory agencies such the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) use information gathered from clinical trials to decide if medicines are safe and effective. It is important to have ethnic diversity in clinical trials to better understand diseases, and the full impact of certain drugs. Different ethnicities can have unique responses to the same disease. Studies have shown that MS can be especially active in African Americans. The effectiveness of many drugs can also vary depending on the patient’s ethnicity, lifestyle, culture and genetic makeup. For example, about 50 percent of Asian patients and 75 percent of Pacific Islanders lack the enzymes required to activate Plavix (a blood thinner). Certain classes of hypertension drugs have recently been found to be less effective in African American patients. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), minorities account for fewer than 10 percent of patients enrolled in clinical trials. African American men are twice as likely as Caucasian men to die from prostate cancer, yet they represent just 4 percent of prostate cancer clinical trial participants. Suicide is one of the top three causes of death among Asian American women under 45 years of age, yet they represent just 1 percent of major depressive disorder clinical trial participants. And while the prevalence of diabetes among Mexican Americans and Puerto Ricans is more than double that of Caucasians, those groups combined represent just 4 percent of diabetes trial participants.

  • Sample Chapter
    Preface Welcome to the remarkable world of child and adolescent development. Many of you are read- ing this book because you plan to be teachers, counselors, speech therapists, recreational leaders, or medical practitioners. Some of you will be (or already are) parents. All of you are citizens who influence the lives of children through your knowledge, votes, and participation in communities. The material in this text should be of interest to everyone who is concerned about children and adolescents, from the library volunteer to the principal of a school for children facing the challenges of learning in a new language. No background in human or developmental psychology is necessary to understand this mate- rial. We have avoided jargon and technical language whenever possible and focused on writing a clear, relevant, and interesting book on an exciting topic. We also have written this book with three features ever in mind: • A chronological framework for discussing child development • A commitment to clear explanations of theory coupled always with applications to practice • A complete and thorough integration of diversity CHRONOLOGICAL FRAME As you glance at the table of contents for this book, you will notice that we examine three different areas of child development—physical, cognitive, and social emotional—during the specific time pe- riods of infancy and toddlerhood, early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence. Of course, these are not exact categories. Children develop continuously, not only across time periods, but also across areas—physical development is not separated from cognitive development, and emotional development does not proceed independently from social or physical development.

  • The Willowbrook Mile Collaboration
    The Willowbrook Mile Collaboration The Willowbrook Mile Collaboration Executive Summary The Willowbrook Mile project is a collaboration among the Staten Island Developmental Disabilities Council, the primary advocacy consortium for families and service providers for people with developmental disabilities on Staten Island; the College of Staten Island; the Institute for Basic Research in Developmental Disabilities; and the Elizabeth Connelly Resource Center/Office for People with Developmental Disabilities. Prior to the initiation of this project, the Council had developed the concept of creating a walking trail commemorating the Willowbrook State School and the College created a fitness trail with landmarks based on the Willowbrook State School. With the unification of these projects, the concept was formulated for a walking trail through the three distinct campuses that were created from the original 383 pastoral acres that were once the Willowbrook State School. The shared vision for the former Willowbrook State School property is to create a pathway for everyone to share the history of the property that would be accomplished in an inclusive, productive, progressive, and creative manner within a community partnership. The Willowbrook Mile project aims to preserve the site’s history and create a visionary presence that acknowledges the deinstitutionalization movement to empty large ineffective institutions, as well as the crucial initiation of sustained rights for people with disabilities. In the early 1970s, Willowbrook burst onto the national scene following a series of articles published by the Staten Island Advance detailing the deplorable conditions that Sen. Robert Kennedy compared to a “snake pit” following his 1965 visit to the institution. Following the Geraldo Rivera, Eyewitness News exposé, residents and their families joined civil libertarians and mental health advocates in a lawsuit against the state “to prevent further deterioration and to establish that residents had a constitutional right to treatment,” according to The New York Times.

    National Consortium on Leadership and Disability for Youth Disability History Timeline DISABILITY HISTORY TIMELINE: Resource and Discussion Guide This disability history timeline is designed to help you learn about the rich history of people with disabilities. If you have a disability, this is about your history, but it may not be the history you know. Increasing your knowledge of disability history will help you inspire and lead others by telling the diverse stories of the many who have gone before. Starting Yoshiko Dart shortly after the United States was founded, the disabilities timeline features examples of the remarkable diversity, creativity, and leadership that has shaped the disability community up through today. N C L D Youth NAME: Note: Although designed for youth and emerging leaders with disabilities, the Disability History Timeline and related activities can be used to educate a broader audience.
