The service categories are defined below: 1. Group .~ (GC) The group care category includes group homes and halfway houses which maintain a small bed capacity and provide long-term treatment. These programs rely on community resources (public PREFACE schools, medical services, community r.ecreation and employment programs, etc.) in working with the youth in placement. Group care facilities are non-secure. This directory has been compiled by the Massachusetts Committee 2. Specialized Group ~ (SGC) on Criminal Justice. The Committee is a state agency mandated to plan and administer all federal funds available to the Commonwe-alth under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act (1968) and the Juvenile Programs included in this category provide long-term car(~ Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (1974). and have a capacity of approximately 15-30 beds.

These schools usually have a full clinical component.

Shelter ~ (SC) The Committee would like to thank the Massachusetts residential service providers listed herein for their interest and cooperation in this project. Shelter care facilities are designed to provide temporary shelter (less than two months) for youths in crisis. Some programs have a diagnostic capability. Several of the shelters used exclu­ sively for delinquents offer some degree of security. 5. Secure Programs (SP) ";. Each program in this category relies on locks, bars, security screens, staffing pattern, enclosures or any combination thereof for security measures. Youths do not have access to the community. There are three types of programs in this category. Secure detention programs are used for the temporary detainment of accused or adjudicated juvenile offenders. The Bureau of Clinical Services of the Department of Youth Services coordinates secure treatment pro¥ams. These programs are locked, closed treatment facilities withull on-grounds programming. Secure IVlental Health Group Care Programs, are operated by the Department of Mental Health. They are similar to DYS secure treatment programs in that they are self-contained, however, their clientele have diagnosed mental health histories. ii i l' , .... ~~1 fl , I I TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS Page The table of contents provides an alphabetical listing of programs within the service categories described under Organization.

  • The Census Man Cometh

    The Census Man Cometh

    THE CENSUS MAN COMETH - FOR SEAGULLS AND SUNDRY OTHER FOWL OF THE SEA AND SHORE by Bradford G. Blodget, State Ornithologist, Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife A question I am frequently asked goes something like this; "Vfhat does the State Ornithologist do?" Actually, the greatest amount of my time and effort is spent collecting information and keeping tabs on the approximately 210 species of birds, particularly the rarer ones, that nest in Massachusetts. With this intelligence, effective recommenda­ tions can be made for their conservation, and I can answer other fre­ quent queries like, "Where have all the bluebirds gone?" While various specialized investigations and censuses of the state's avifauna are routinely handled, 1984 turned out to be anything but rou­ tine. One morning last spring, Ralph Andrews, a coastal bird special­ ist for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), telephoned me to announce that the service was undertaking a colonial waterbird census along the Atlantic seaboard from Maine to Virginia to update a census done in 1977. He asked me whether I would be willing to coordi­ nate the census in Massachusetts, thus setting in motion what has turned out to be probably the largest and most comprehensive bird cen­ sus handled to date by the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife's Non­ game and Endangered Species Program (DFW - NESP). Plundered by plume hianters in the 1890s, forced by human encroachment to abandon many of their natural nesting habitats and battered by the onslaught of environmental toxicants, the colonial waterbirds are sur­ vivors. Some species are still threatened today, while others - wit­ ness the gulls - rank among textbook examples of biological capitalists and flourish in vast numbers, scavenging the byproducts of the seafood industry and our "throw-away" society.

    “Penikese Offers You the Choice Between Two Worlds. One Is a Place Where You Can Always Find Someone Other Than Yourself to Blame for Your Troubles

    “Penikese offers you the choice between two worlds. One is a place where you can always find someone other than yourself to blame for your troubles. It is a place where what you do and where you go is decided for you by the various agencies that our society created to manage the lives of the people who cannot make it on their own. When you live in this world you can have no real friends since everyone there cares only about himself. The other world is a place where people accept the responsibility for their own lives. Here a man is measured against the values of honesty, compassion, and the courage to do what is right instead of what is easiest. This is the world we hope Penikese will convince you to choose for yourself.” From a school brochure, circa 1975, by George Cadwalader.

Penikese’s longevity and prosperity is all the more remarkable given its challenges: sharing its Woods Hole home base with several larger, prestigious and acclaimed missions, working with an extremely difficult population, and no less, serving as a private school in an ever-shifting operating climate over which it has little control.

It is easy to drift off reflecting upon how it was I got here (Thanks Mike!) and on all the fun that I have had in the past year filled with so many eventful AMC outings. My previous columns have focused on encouraging folks to get out and join an activity or a trip offered by one of our committees. I am pleased to report that there has been a significant increase in participation in our trips, bringing many new faces to the outdoors. I do not believe that this happened by chance. It was the result of many hours of work by our members and their continued effort in keeping the pipeline filled with activities planned for six months in advance. I would like to thank the executive board for its hard work and dedication. The board’s professionalism and support for the committees made it possible for them to offer such quality services and trips. Many thanks also to the committees that worked hard at keeping their activities dynamic and fresh. My final thanks go to the feet on the street – those who led, organized, or worked behind the scenes providing support for activities. Thank you all for your time and for your camaraderie in making this the most dynamic chapter in the club.

    DCR's 10Th Annual Park Serve Day Set

    For Immediate Release - April 19, 2016 DCR’s 10th Annual Park Serve Day Set for Saturday, April 30, 2016 Public is Encouraged to Join Thousands of Volunteers at Statewide Park Clean- Up Events Boston- Tuesday, April 19, 2016- Today, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) has announced that the 10th annual Park Serve Day will be held on Saturday, April 30, 2016, and the agency encourages members of the public to participate in events held at local state parks and beaches. Park Serve Day is a statewide initiative dedicated to a day of volunteer service where the public partners with staff from the DCR to ready the Commonwealth’s parks and beaches for summer by assisting in cleaning coastlines, clearing trails, planting flowers, painting picnic tables, mowing, weeding, and picking up litter. “From planting flowers and trees to painting picnic tables and welcome signs, Park Serve Day is an incredible opportunity for state government to partner with the public in an effort to benefit us all,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “By working together, generations of people will truly benefit from this worthwhile event.” Park Serve Day improves natural, cultural, and recreational public spaces throughout Massachusetts through volunteerism at local events. The majority of events will take place between the hours of 8:00AM and 3:00PM, though hours may vary by location, and participants are encouraged to reach out to their local state parks to confirm event times. “Every year thousands of volunteers pitch in and participate in DCR’s annual Park Serve Day, and I’m so proud of their work and commitment at our state parks” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito.
