We've got Freedom Court Reporting, Inc 877-373-3660 Board Meeting Minutes October 26, 2016 9 1 Dr. Mike Garver here with the Wellness report 2 and if you'd like to go ahead and do that, Mike. 3 DR. GARVER: Good morning. Thank you 4 for letting me be here. It's good to see all of 5 you this week. 6 Here is the report for the last part 7 of September through October to this point. 8 There are presently 154 people in our screening 9 program with signed contracts and orders. This 10 number includes any individuals on a diagnostic 11 monitoring contract but does not include any of 12 the individuals that are listed below in the 13 current work. 14 There are three pharmacists in 15 inpatient treatment. There are three pharmacy 16 technicians in treatment. There are two 17 pharmacy technicians who are in the process of 18 going for an evaluation. There is one student 19 in maintenance phase of treatment, that is an 20 outpatient treatment after inpatient, and that 21 treatment is ongoing to this point. There's one 22 student who has had all their treatment and is 23 self-reporting as a freshman student and we're Freedom Court Reporting, Inc 877-373-3660 Board Meeting Minutes October 26, 2016 10 1 dealing with that student with the pharmacy 2 staff right now and we have two new students who 3 are going for evaluation, so we've identified a 4 lot of students this year. 5 The total number of pharmacy 6 professionals identified and worked with in 2016 7 to this point is 37. There are 18 pharmacists, 8 15 pharmacy techs, and four students. The total 9 number of pharmacy health professionals 10 identified in this time period in 2015 is 29, so 11 that's up a little bit and it's hard to tell 12 whether the number goes up or down from year to 13 year very much, but 33 is a lot and I credit 14 that to staff work, the inspectors, and all the 15 people who have helped the pharmacists who are 16 out in the field identifying their coworkers and 17 asking them to get help. It's a really nice 18 thing to see. 19 All of the individuals who are in 20 treatment or in evaluation or undecided are 21 presently out of the workplace and without 22 license and that usually means with a voluntary 23 suspension of some sort. There are five others Freedom Court Reporting, Inc 877-373-3660 Board Meeting Minutes October 26, 2016 11 1 who are working their way through halfway house, 2 Time Out for Recovery up to six months or those 3 who are in the process of being investigation or 4 scheduled for hearings and includes those who 5 cannot make up their minds, and we do have one 6 or to have those every month, and there are 77 7 individuals in facility-driven aftercare. That 8 aftercare is any -- any type of institutional 9 meeting that a person signs up to go to or is 10 instructed to go to after their treatment, so 11 that's the formal part of the report and I would 12 ask the Board if there are any questions that I 13 could answer. 14 (No response.) 15 DR. GARVER: No? All right. It's 16 good to see you all. I'll see you in January 17 with the December report and the final 18 statistics for the year 2016. Thank you 19 again. 20 MR. DARBY: Thank you. 21 MS. YEATMAN: Thank you. 22 MR.

  • 2018 ANNUAL REPORT Our Community Knows and Trusts Volunteers of America
    2018 ANNUAL REPORT Our community knows and trusts Volunteers of America. We VALUE your SUPPORT with 88c of EVERY $1 going DIRECTLY to our programs and services. Front Cover: A single mother with two daughters, Ramona felt she had nowhere to turn to for help. She learned to fend for herself at a very young age after running away from home. She later turned to drugs and was arrested for driving under the influence with her daughters in the car. That is when she vowed to turn her life around. Thanks to Volunteers of America Northern California and Northern Nevada, Ramona received a fresh start. With our help, Ramona received substance use counseling, family housing and eventually helped her become a homeowner. “Volunteers of America provided more than a program, they are like a family to me. They provided more than a roof over my head—they gave me love,” said Ramona. Officers’ Letter As one of the nation’s largest human service agencies, the challenges we faced together in our nation this past year have helped fortify our work and strengthened the breadth of our services. Our 16,000 employees, board members and thousands of volunteers serve more people than ever – a testament to the size and scope of our organization, but also to the steady number of people who depend on our programs for assistance. Volunteers of America’s housing and healthcare properties continue to grow in number, totaling more than 500 nationally. We’ve been blessed by an expanding number of partners and supporters who have joined our mission to help the people we serve live their best lives possible.

    Message From the Board Chair Greetings, Fellow LeadingAge Members, Staff, and Partners: In this, my final greeting as your board chair of LeadingAge, I am pleased to report that your association is thriving. Never in our long history have members, board, and staff been so engaged with one another. Continued efforts, including the Town Hall Conversations, have allowed state meetings to serve as a listening conduit for national board and staff. In turn, state executives have appreciated the collegial style of our President and CEO, Katie Smith Sloan, which has led to greater alignment around common public policy. We have boldly advocated by holding not one, but two, rallies for affordable housing funding— right in front of the Capitol building! LeadingAge staff led efforts to pressure CMS over skilled nursing regulation and unnecessary and misleading CMS reporting. And more recently, staff have once again been at the forefront of life plan community taxation issues. Perhaps most important to all members, LeadingAge launched the Center for Workforce Solutions, designed to serve as a repository for staff recruitment and retention best practices, while continuing to advocate for immigration reform and other measures to increase the overall workforce pool. Your board continues its diligent strategic work, as well, carefully navigating through the waters of provider consolidation, divestment, and overall need for scale. As we enter a new strategic planning cycle, I am pleased to be handing the board leadership role over to Carol Silver Elliott, with the association and its management in a strong position, poised for even greater good in our society.

  • Themartinlutherking,Jr
    The Martin Luther King, Jr. Papers Project INTRODUCTION [In] the quiet recesses of my heart, I am fundamentally a clergyman, a Baptist preacher. This is my being and my heritage for I am also the son of a Baptist preacher, the grandson of a Baptist preacher and the great-grandson of a Baptist preacher. Martin Luther King, Jr., 1965. Martin Luther King, Jr., was born in Atlanta about noon on Tuesday, 15 January 1929. The difficult delivery occurred in the second-floor master bedroom of the Auburn Avenue home his parents shared with his maternal grandparents. From the moment of his birth, King's extended family connected him to African-American religious traditions. His grandparents A. D. Williams and Jennie Celeste Williams had transformed nearby Ebenezer Baptist Church from a struggling congregation in the 1890s into one of black Atlanta's most prominent institutions. Martin Luther King, Sr., would succeed his father-in-law as Ebenezer's pastor, and Alberta Williams King would follow her mother as a powerful presence in Ebenezer's affairs. Immersed in religion at home and in church, King, Jr., acquired skills and contacts that would serve him well once he accepted his calling as a minister. He saw his father and grandfather as appealing role models who combined pastoring with social activism. Although King's theological curiosity and public ministry would take him far from his Auburn Avenue origins, his basic identity remained rooted in Baptist church religious traditions that were intertwined with his family's history. * * * * * King, Jr.'s family ties to the Baptist church extended back to the slave era.
