    No More Deaths , Human Rights and Immigration Reform

    Tonight we welcome two volunteers Brenna Daldorph and Sonya Navarro from the No More Deaths Organization. These two young women have been directly working with No More Deaths to end death and suffering on the U.S./Mexico border through civil initiative. The mission of No More Deaths began with the conviction that people of conscience must work openly and in community to uphold fundamental human rights. A morally intolerable situation inspired a remarkable humanitarian movement in Southern Arizona in the spring of 2004. Driven by economic inequality, thwarted by ill-conceived US border policy, and ignorant of the harsh conditions of the Sonoran Desert, more than 2000 men, women, and children have died trying to cross the Mexican border into the United States since 1998. The information brought to light by the No More Deaths organization shows that most of the deaths occurred in the brutal heat of the summer months. Diverse faith-based and social activist groups—along with concerned individuals—felt compelled to act to stem the death tide and attempt to save at least some lives. The result was the converging of hundreds of volunteers—local, regional and national—who came together to work for one common goal: No Más Muertes: No More Deaths. The work of No More Deaths embraces the Faith-Based Principles for Immigration Reform and focuses on • direct aid that extends the right to provide humanitarian assistance as well witnessing and responding and raising global awareness which will ultimately encourage a more humane immigration policy.

    The Spirit Within

    A interfaith panel will discuss the benefits of spiritual strength for whistleblowers. Led by Pastor Peter Steimle from Lawrence KS. A social and spiritual network is an important aspect of our support system. The grueling nature of being a whistleblower eventually takes its toll on each of us. As Medical Whistleblowers we are isolated and traumatized by the retaliation that inevitably happens. During this journey we will need a deep spiritual inner strength to sustain us. A panel of interfaith religious experts will discuss how to find spiritual strength to sustain us through adversity.

    Foster Care - What is wrong with the system

    It has been estimated that 70% of the US prison population was once in foster care. Three in 10 of the nation's homeless adults report foster care history. This points out an obvious problem within our social service network. We must be failing these needy children. There are inadequacies in supervision of the placement of these children, clear indications of corruption within the system as well as neglect of the children’s needs. Child placement agencies, foster parents, and residential treatment centers get paid a daily sum for the care of a foster child. These allocated amounts are based on the Federal entitlement system IV-e and are based on the level of care the child needs. The more difficult the child is to care for the higher the daily payment for care. Thus it is in the interest of the state agencies, social service workers, foster parents, and therapeutic clinicians to make the child appear on paper to need the highest level of care possible. Many foster children are labeled with more than one psychological diagnosis in order to upgrade their status to a higher level. Foster care daily rates run from $17 per day to $1,000 per day. A child diagnosed with a mental disorder and placed on psychiatric drugs is worth more than a child without problems. Let us hear first hand from some of these foster children who were interviewed at a Foster Care Alumni meeting and asked about their experiences in Child Protective Services while still wards of the state.

    Mandated Reporters - Victims Caught in the System

    Doctors and Nurses should protect patients from abuse and neglect shouldn't they??? Listen to a lively discussion of this topic by Dr. Gerldine Mills MD, pediatrician, Dr. Jim Singer, clinical psychologist and therapist and Judith Grant RN, elder care specialist. There is a system called Mandated Reporter which obligates all medical professionals to report suspected abuse and neglect of patients and also to report human rights violations. But this system also exposes the Mandated Reporter to intense retaliation and perhaps through fraudulent and exaggerated counterclaims the possible loss of their medical license. So when a medical professional steps forward to protect the vulnerable they are risking their professional lives and may face a grueling battle fighting an abusive system that does not protect the American Public.
