Don't Show Up! Cancel Student Success!
|
Many teachers and faculty do not want, for various reasons, to come back to the classroom and school environment. Our children need you. Please do not cancel their success. Adults experience a lot of complexity in their own lives which they bring to the lives of their own children and those they teach. Yet, children of all ages, especially before the age of 12, require only two things for their student success. 1) that their basic Maslow Hierarchy of Needs be met and 2) that we "Show Up" in their lives. Showing up means finding ways to bond via people, places, and things or through social bonding attachment, commitment, involvement, and belief. Join us to learn more about the ways you can encourage student success.

Indy's Black Churches Hope to Help Those at Risk of Losing Medicaid
|
Indy’s Black churches hope to help those at risk of losing Medicaid. Millions of people across the country — including in Indiana — could lose Medicaid coverage as states have resumed eligibility checks after pandemic-era federal protections expired. Four Black churches in Indianapolis are trying to blunt the impact of the Medicaid unwinding process in their communities and ensure people don’t lose their health insurance. “In many communities, the congregation is a first place that people go for information about all kinds of issues, including about their health care,” said Jay Foster, who leads IU Health’s collaboration with the Black churches. 2020 Bantz Fellow, Dr. David Craig, is key member of this project to help people keep their health insurance.
