Podcasts about auditors

February 11th, 2026

Fresh out of the caucus week we heard Monday morning that Scott Jensen announced he is dropping out of the gubernatorial race and instead pursuing the Minnesota State Auditor position! He shares why make the move now, what signs he had that it was time for a switch, who he personally feels is the best fit for the governor and how he feels he would fare in the race to become a state auditor!

Join me, host Sgt Erik Lavigne, the return of the rookie Trey Mosley, and special guest Anthony Bandiero from Blue to Gold law enforcement training. We even have a special story time. A dad, two kids, a frozen lake—and four officers on the dock. That viral moment becomes our doorway into a bigger, sharper question: when does a safety worry justify a 911 call, and when does it become pressure disguised as policing? We bring the original poster onto the show to tell his side, and we work through the messy details together: a Virginia lake that rarely freezes, private HOA property, open water in the middle, and a community that sees thin ice as a hard no. He's candid about what he'd have done and why. We're candid about discretion, constitutional limits, and the real weight of simply showing up in uniform.From there, we shift into practical, street-level law. We test ID demands during stops, passengers who match wanted persons, and where community caretaking ends. We dig into cite-and-release drug cases and why exigency—not search incident to arrest—may be the cleanest path to recover evidence without hauling someone to jail. Then we break down Terry frisk failures: why “training and experience” isn't a magic phrase, how timing undermines credibility, and what articulation actually sticks in court. If you can't defend it from the report to the stand, don't do it.We also talk culture. Real-Time Crime Centers can make policing smarter and safer when policy discipline is tight. Auditors can be irritants or unexpected allies depending on your poise. And chasing SWAT is a test of character as much as fitness; a first “no” often measures how badly you want the “yes.” Threaded through it all is a simple principle: use the badge lightly and your voice well. Educate, de-escalate, and reserve force for the moments that truly demand it.If this kind of open, honest conversation hits home, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review.

When I talk about warehouse sanitation, I often say, “It's a great way to get your foot in the door.” And every now and then, someone pushes back and says, “I don't want to clean restrooms or take out trash.” I understand that reaction. On the surface, sanitation doesn't sound exciting. It doesn't come with a forklift, a title, or a clipboard. It came up again this week so I wanted to explain a little better what the warehouse sanitation role really is, what it teaches you, and why it has launched more warehouse careers than people realize. Because warehouse sanitation is not just cleaning. It's operations support. It's safety. It's compliance. And for the right person, it's a proving ground. Think of it like this. At its core, warehouse sanitation exists to protect people, product, and the process. A clean warehouse is a safer warehouse, a compliant warehouse, and ultimately a more productive warehouse. Yes, sanitation associates may clean restrooms and remove trash, although a lot of times that's more of a role for the janitorial folks and departments, anyway, that work matters more than people realize. But in a warehouse or production environment, sanitation includes maintaining dock areas, storage aisles, production zones, and shared spaces so that operations can run without interruption and bottlenecks. Sanitation associates are often the first ones to notice leaks, spills, or damaged flooring, broken pallets and debris buildup, blocked exits or fire equipment, and unsafe conditions developing in the aisles, cross aisles, and dock areas over time. In many operations, especially your larger distribution operations, sanitation is not a background function, it is a frontline safety and compliance role. Auditors, inspectors, and customers notice cleanliness immediately, and sanitation teams are often the unsung reason a facility passes inspections. One of the most valuable things a sanitation associate learns is Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMPs. GMPs teach the why behind the rules. Why food can't touch the floor. Why personal items are restricted in production areas. Why cleaning tools and equipment are color-coded and why documentation is so important and matters. Sanitation associates learn how contamination happens through people, equipment, and behavior. They learn how one mistake in one area can affect product quality downstream. Once someone understands GMPs, they become valuable across the entire warehouse. Receiving, picking, packing, shipping, and quality all rely on the same principles. GMP knowledge changes how people move, touch, store, and think about product. Sanitation associates don't just follow rules, they help enforce a culture of cleanliness and accountability. And sanitation work is structured. There are daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly cleaning schedules that must be followed. Sometimes called the Master Sanitation List. This teaches sanitation associates how to manage time independently, how to prioritize critical areas, and how to complete work without constant supervision, and then most importantly, how to properly document completed tasks. Schedules don't care if someone is motivated or not, the work still has to be done. Associates who learn to stay on schedule develop discipline quickly. When managers look for leads or trainers, they often look for people who can manage their time without reminders. Sanitation associates who consistently complete schedules are already proving they can handle responsibility. We also may be given classes, training, and certifications on handling cleaning chemicals, another area where sanitation roles quietly build professional skills. Associates are trained on proper dilution ratios, PPE requirements, SDS sheets, and safe storage practices. They learn that stronger is not better, and that improper mixing can create hazards instead of preventing them. Chemical misuse can damage floors and equipment, create slip hazards, most importantly violating safety regulations. Learning to follow chemical procedures teaches precision, patience, and respect for process. Again, traits that are essential in equipment operation, quality roles, and leadership. Those next steps we're all after. Ok, what else did I make notes on. Alright, this is where the sanitation role starts to surprise people. Warehouse sanitation often involves powered and equipment and machines, and that equipment brings even more responsibility into play. Think of Industrial floor sweepers, walk-behind or ride-on, remove debris that creates safety hazards. Sanitation associates trained on sweepers learn to perform pre-use inspections, monitor battery levels, and operate safely around pedestrians and forklifts. They learn right-of-way rules, speed control, and awareness of blind spots. Now, we need to remember that sweepers operate in active aisles. That means sanitation associates must anticipate traffic patterns, understand dock activity, and adjust their cleaning routes based on production flow. This isn't random driving, it's operational awareness and has to be treated as such. And the floor scrubbers require even more thought. These machines deep clean concrete floors and are essential in GMP environments. Associates learn how water flow, detergent concentration, and recovery systems work together. They quickly learn that too much water or chemical creates slip hazards and damages floors. Scrubbers require planning, which areas are active? Which areas can be blocked for a while? How to communicate wet floors? That kind of forward thinking kind of mirrors the decision making required of supervisors and leads. Oh, and trash compactors. Trash compactors are powerful machines with strict safety rules. Sanitation associates learn load limits, prohibited materials, cycle timing, and lockout awareness. Compactors teach one key lesson, procedures exist for a reason. There are no shortcuts, no “just this once.” They can be dangerous. This mindset, follow the process every time, is exactly what safety managers look for when selecting people for advancement. And Balers. Many facilities recycle their cardboard, shrink wrap, and slip sheets. We'll learn how to sort materials properly, safely load the baler, tie off the bales, and document counts or weights. Many facilities track recycling metrics, which introduce sanitation associates to cost control and sustainability efforts. Balers build organization skills and attention to detail, two traits essential in inventory control and leadership roles. What else did I note here, Sanitation associates work everywhere. They see inbound, outbound, production, and all of the common areas. They notice how shifts hand off work, where bottlenecks form, and where safety issues seem to repeat themselves. That exposure creates, what I like to call, big-picture thinkers. People who understand how departments interact often become strong supervisors because they already understand the operation as a whole. Remember how I'm always mentioning to understand the task before and after ours? So where can all this take us? Sanitation experience often leads to general warehouse associate roles, Forklift and equipment operator positions, quality control or safety support roles, inventory control or clerical positions, facilities or building maintenance support, and yes, front line management. Some of the most effective leaders I deal with started in sanitation, and they respect every role and understand compliance better than most. So about that, I don't want to clean mindset. Here's the truth I share often, careers aren't built by avoiding necessary work. Sanitation teaches discipline, humility, consistency, and accountability. Remember, managers notice who shows up, with a positive attitude, follows procedures, and does the work, even work that others avoid. Sanitation isn't about trash. It's about trust. Warehouse sanitation doesn't have to be a forever job, but it can be a powerful starting point. And it can be a great career. It builds safety awareness, equipment experience, operational understanding, and work ethic. Sanitation isn't a dead end. It's a foundation. And as we've learned, strong foundations support long careers. Well, I have to get back to work now myself. I hope I shed some light on why I feel sanitation is one of the strong starting points in our industry. I'd appreciate it if you'd pass the episode along to a friend, ask them to subscribe on Apple Podcast, Spotify, or any of their favorite Podcatchers, we're even on YouTube! Let's all do our part to bring more of those entering the workforce into our Industry.

In the high-stakes world of M&A, Goodwill is arguably the most important yet invisible asset on a modern balance sheet. It represents the "engine of ambition," but as history shows, it is also a significant source of financial volatility.In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on FinPod, we unpack why companies pay billions in premiums, how that value is tracked, and what happens when those strategic promises vanish overnight.What is Goodwill? The Anatomy of a PremiumGoodwill is an intangible asset that appears only when one company acquires another. It is the accounting placeholder for the premium paid over the fair market value of a company's identifiable net assets.When a buyer pays an extra $500 million for a $1 billion company, they are buying "strategic future value" that doesn't fit into a physical ledger. This premium typically covers:Brand Equity: The power of established names like Disney or Coca-Cola. Human Capital: Specialized workforce talent and "acqui-hires." Synergies: The quantified promise that the combined businesses will unlock efficiencies neither could achieve alone. Network Effects: Market dominance and ecosystem integration.The Accounting Shield: PPA and ImpairmentBecause Goodwill is intangible, regulators use a rigid process called Purchase Price Allocation (PPA). Auditors first identify and value every "identifiable" asset (patents, inventory, debt). Only the leftover remainder is recorded as Goodwill.Unlike a factory or a machine, Goodwill is not amortized. It stays on the balance sheet indefinitely until a "Triggering Event" occurs, requiring an Impairment Test.Strategic Red Flags (Triggering Events):Persistent declining revenue or shrinking margins. Major leadership changes or failed integration. Market downturns or the loss of a key customer.If the fair value of the business unit drops below its carrying value, an Impairment Charge is mandatory. While this is a non-cash charge, the stock market reaction is often violent because it destroys management credibility.Case Studies: Strategic Success vs. FailureFacebook & Instagram (Success): Meta paid $1 billion for an app with negligible assets. The Goodwill was a bet on network effects, which now generates tens of billions. Amazon & Whole Foods (Success): The premium bought time, instantly giving Amazon a physical retail and logistics footprint. Kraft Heinz (Failure): A $15.4 billion write-down occurred because aggressive cost-cutting cannibalized the very brand equity they paid for. GE & Alstom (Failure): A $22 billion write-down triggered by misjudging the gas turbine market.The Critical Ratio: Goodwill to EquitySmart investors look past the absolute dollar amount and focus on the Goodwill-to-Equity ratio. A high ratio is a strategic warning sign; it tells you the company is heavily reliant on future promises rather than proven stability.Key Takeaway: An impairment is a lagging indicator. By the time the write-down happens, the business has been suffering for a long time. The charge is simply the officially mandated confirmation of strategic failure.

The Defense Department failed to pass its annual audit once again. Auditors found 26 material weaknesses and “two significant deficiencies related to the DoD's internal controls over financial reporting.” The review covered the department's $4.7 trillion in assets and another $4.7 trillion in liabilities. The Pentagon has failed every audit since launching its first agency-wide review in 2018. Congress has set a goal for the DoD to achieve a clean audit by fiscal 2028. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Pentagon inspector general found the Defense Health Agency failed to issue finalized guidance defining roles, responsibilities and access-to-care standards after reorganizing the military health system. The average wait for urgent medical appointments at military medical treatment facilities outside the United States stretched as long as 21 days in some locations, while routine appointments were delayed by as much as 37 days. Auditors also said many overseas facilities were understaffed, and personnel working in military clinics and hospitals experienced burnout and low morale. The inspector general recommended that the DHA director track data on why personnel are leaving military medical facilities.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Auditors are calling out schools for questionable spending on overseas trips and travel. The Auditor-General's latest report flagged concerns with more than 170 school boards last year, many involving how principals used coaching and wellbeing funds. Around a third were tied to travel. Sector Manager for Schools, Jane Rogers told Heather du Plessis-Allan some boards allowed personal travel to be added onto work trips. She says spending public money has to have a justifiable purpose, so they wouldn't expect it to be spent on personal travel. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With France going through major government instability and facing an alarmingly high public debt, and with Europe struggling to find its diplomatic feet as the US pursues talks to end the war in Ukraine, we speak to a seasoned political figure at the French and European level. Pierre Moscovici is the First President of the French Court of Auditors, a former EU Commissioner for Economic and Monetary Affairs, and was a minister of the economy and finance in the former Socialist government in France.

Ever watch a pursuit video and wonder why an officer “threw” stop sticks instead of pulling them in from cover? We break down the safer method, the training behind it, and a harrowing story of an officer who nearly lost his leg deploying spikes the wrong way. That opens a bigger conversation about tactics, judgment, and when “off duty” ends—the moment you flip the lights and assert authority, you're responsible as if you're on the clock.From there, we shift into accountability that actually improves outcomes. A magnet fishing crew finds live ordnance and gets scolded for “wasting resources.” We call that what it is—lazy policing—and lay out the correct EOD response. Then we dissect a controversial stop where a warning is issued, yanked back, and swapped for a ticket after tempers flare. We unpack why that likely fails legally and ethically, how Pennsylvania v. Mims is often misapplied, and why officers must articulate true safety concerns rather than let ego drive enforcement.We also challenge a popular myth: more patrol cars don't automatically reduce crime. Focused two-officer units, problem-oriented strategies, and credible community investment outperform random patrols. Mentoring youth and reentry programs lower recidivism more than hot-spot cruising ever will. And if we're serious about reform, accountability can't stop with cops—judges and prosecutors wield enormous discretion with far less scrutiny. Real change balances all three legs of the justice system.Auditors take the spotlight too. The best elevate training and public understanding; the worst provoke for clicks. We outline how departments can avoid the bait, verify a complaining party, and protect First Amendment activity with a simple, respectful acknowledgment. To close, we highlight a life-saving response: an officer recognizes a medical emergency behind the wheel and acts fast, proving that care and competence still define this profession at its best.If this conversation sharpened your perspective, tap follow, share with a friend who'ssend us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comPeregrine.io: Turn your worst detectives into Sherlock Holmes, head to Peregrine.io tell them Two Cops One Donut sent you or direct message me and I'll get you directly connected and skip the salesmen.Support the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

In today's episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, Paul Rodden breaks down the German Federal Court of Auditors' explosive new report calling for a “reality check” on Germany's national hydrogen strategy. This assessment isn't just about Germany—it's a warning and a roadmap for every country investing billions in clean hydrogen.

Is green hydrogen a ‘miracle fuel' or an expensive illusion? Can we decarbonize without it? And what happens when hydrogen hype meets hard economics?This week on Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich debates Erik Rakhou, author of Touching Hydrogen Future, in a no-holds-barred discussion moderated by Andrew Critchlow of S&P Global Commodity Insights.Together, they contest one of the most contentious topics in energy today: hydrogen. Liebreich argues that hydrogen is plagued by physics-driven cost barriers and limited real-world applications, while Rakhou defends its potential as a critical tool for industrial decarbonization, energy resilience, and long-term security.From the potential of green vs. blue hydrogen, to global ammonia trade routes, Europe's pipeline ambitions, and China's hydrogen cost curve, this debate pulls no punches. Topics include:Whether there'll ever be a hydrogen-based economyWhy hydrogen economics remain so challengingThe role of carbon pricing vs. subsidiese-Fuels and hydrogen's place in transport, steel, and aviationWhy electrification trumps hydrogenThis episode was recorded at the S&P Global offices in London and originally broadcast as a S&P Global webinar on October 29, 2025. THanks to S&P Global and Andrew Critchlow for hosting the debate.Leadership Circle:Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

As we explore Domain 1.3 of the CISSP exam, we unpack how proper governance creates accountability and structure that protects both your organization and your career.We begin with a startling real-world example: the "Red November" campaign, where Chinese state-sponsored hackers exploited vulnerable internet-facing appliances and VPNs across defense, aerospace, and government sectors for a full year. This sophisticated operation highlights why casual approaches to security governance leave organizations exposed to devastating attacks.Security governance isn't merely a theoretical concept – it's a practical framework that defines who's responsible for what across your security landscape. We break down the crucial roles every organization must establish: from Senior Managers who hold ultimate responsibility, to Data Owners who classify information, to Data Custodians who implement protections, and the often-overlooked role of Auditors who verify everything works as intended. Understanding these distinctions protects security professionals from becoming scapegoats when incidents occur.The real value emerges when we examine how security control frameworks like NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and CRI provide structured approaches to managing risk. These aren't one-size-fits-all solutions, but rather customizable blueprints that help you systematically identify, implement, and monitor security measures appropriate to your specific needs. Framework mapping allows you to align multiple requirements efficiently, making compliance less burdensome and more effective.Finally, we demystify the concepts of due care and due diligence – the practical actions that demonstrate you've taken reasonable steps to protect your organization. These aren't just legal defenses; they're the fundamental building blocks of a mature security program that aligns with business objectives while meaningfully reducing risk.Whether you're preparing for the CISSP exam or building a more robust security program, this episode provides the practical knowledge you need to implement effective security governance that executives will support and auditors will approve.Support the showGain exclusive access to 360 FREE CISSP Practice Questions delivered directly to your inbox!

Auditors are billed as carbon market watchdogs. But conflicts of interest may undermine their credibility. --- The voluntary carbon market is poised for rapid growth, with airlines soon required to use offsets for international flights and pressure building on other industries to follow suit. But recent studies show many offsets fail to deliver real climate benefits, raising doubts about their credibility. Independent offset auditors are promoted as the guarantors of trust, yet their role is shaped by systemic conflicts of interest that make true accountability difficult. Former EPA enforcement chief Cynthia Giles and Penn Law’s Cary Coglianese explore the flaws at the heart of offset auditing—and what they could mean for the future of the offset industry. Cynthia Giles was the senate-confirmed head of EPA’s enforcement office all eight years of the Obama administration. She wrote a book about making environmental rules more effective, titled Next Generation Compliance: Environmental Regulation for the Modern Era, published by Oxford University Press. During the Biden administration she worked on climate regulations as a senior advisor in the Air office. Cary Coglianese is the Edward B. Shils Professor of Law and Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School, where he is also the founding director of the Penn Program on Regulation. He has taught and studied environmental and regulatory law and policy for more than thirty years, and is a member of the advisory committee for the university’s Penn Climate initiative as well as the Water Center at Penn.

I recorded this episode at Barracuda TechSummit25 in Alpbach, Austria, a mountain village that looks like a postcard and hosts some of the most grounded security conversations you will hear all year. My guest is Richard Flanders, Commercial Director at Aura Technology, a managed service provider on the south coast of England that supports public sector organisations and tightly regulated commercial clients. Richard arrived as part of Barracuda's Partner Advisory Board, which means he spends as much time feeding customer reality back into product teams as he does comparing notes with peers in the hallway. We talk through his first TechSummit experience and why the event's focus on hands-on engineering matters for MSPs who live in the weeds of configuration, policy, and response. Richard shares early thoughts on Barracuda's secure edge service and the continued maturation of XDR, but the heart of our chat is the pressure he sees on customers. Compliance is no longer a side quest. ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, supply chain reporting, and new European rules are shaping budgets and expectations. Boards want proof. Auditors want evidence. Buyers want to know a supplier chose fit-for-purpose tools. That makes documentation, contracts, and the ability to show your working as important as the tech itself. We also get into the human side. In a world that loves point solutions, many teams are tired of alert noise and tool sprawl. Richard explains why a single, coherent view helps his engineers move faster and train better, and why MSPs are leaning into prevention-focused workflows rather than waiting for the next fire. He is candid about the conversations no one enjoys, like end-of-life systems that keep a legacy app alive, and the need for tougher stances when risk sits outside an acceptable boundary. AI comes up too, without the hype. Aura is hiring a Head of AI and Automation, standing up a private AI platform, and committing to ship a handful of small, useful apps for customers in the year ahead. The lens is productivity and safety, with an emphasis on teaching teams how to question outputs and rethink everyday tasks. Add in security awareness training, phishing simulations, and tabletop exercises, and you start to see a culture shift from annual tick-boxes to regular, lived practice. There is a lovely moment of serendipity in here as well. Richard's first conversation on day one was with another partner from Pune, the same city where Aura runs its network operations. They swapped ideas on automation and integration that might never have surfaced on a video call. That is the value of getting people in a room together, especially when the room happens to be carved into the side of a mountain. If you work with an MSP, this episode will help you ask better questions. If you are an MSP, you will recognise the balance Richard describes. Pick the right controls for the risks you actually face. Prove what you do. Keep training. And give your teams a single place to see what matters, so the next incident stays small. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

With the second stated focus of the DOGE team involving compensation – one would imagine that unlawful double-dipping practices (if any exist) would be something that would be in focus.

SummaryIn this episode, Sean and Terry discuss the critical importance of accurate and specific documentation in healthcare, particularly in the context of E&M services and audits. They explore the challenges faced by providers in maintaining detailed records, the implications of using generic phrases, and the role of defense operatives in ensuring compliance. The conversation emphasizes the need for patient-centric documentation practices to enhance care quality and protect against audits.TakeawaysDocumentation is essential for compliance and patient care.E&M service documentation must be specific and detailed.Generic phrases in documentation can lead to audit issues.Providers should avoid lazy documentation practices.Smart phrases should be used judiciously and tailored to each patient.Patient records must reflect individual care, not just generic templates.The financial implications of documentation practices are significant.Auditors look for substance over volume in medical records.Healthcare providers must prioritize patient-centered documentation.Understanding payer guidelines is crucial for accurate billing.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for July 3rd Publish Date: July 3rd From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, July 3rd and Happy birthday to Tom Cruise I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Corps of Engineers reopening seven more Lake Lanier parks NAACP accuses Gwinnett DA of mishandling shooting case, wants AG to reopen case Gwinnett Stripers partner with TeamSmile to provide free dental exams for local underserved children Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sodas All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Corps of Engineers reopening seven more Lake Lanier parks The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has partnered with Forsyth and Hall counties to reopen nearly all nine previously closed parks on Lake Lanier for the Fourth of July weekend. Six parks will operate under one-year agreements with the counties, while Burton Mill Park will temporarily open for the holiday weekend. This collaboration aims to provide recreational access while addressing staffing shortages that initially threatened to close 21 parks. Only two parks, Van Pugh North and South, will remain closed as hiring efforts continue to support long-term operations. STORY 2: NAACP accuses Gwinnett DA of mishandling shooting case, wants AG to reopen case A dispute has arisen over the Gwinnett DA's decision not to prosecute Alejandro Querales Morales, who shot Jalyne Evans-Jones through his door after she and her husband asked him to lower his music in August 2023. Evans-Jones, who survived with permanent injuries, and the NAACP claim the case was mishandled, citing lack of investigation and communication. The DA’s office argued there wasn’t enough evidence, pointing to a witness who claimed Evans-Jones' husband had a gun. The NAACP is urging Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr to reopen the case, alleging misconduct, though Carr’s office stated it lacks jurisdiction. Evans-Jones and her husband have also filed a civil lawsuit. STORY 3: Gwinnett Stripers partner with TeamSmile to provide free dental exams for local underserved children Underserved children in Gwinnett County will receive free dental exams and oral health education on July 8, thanks to a partnership between the Gwinnett Stripers, TeamSmile, Delta Dental, and Sun Life U.S. Held at Cooray Field, the event will feature pro athletes, mascots, and entertainment to create a fun atmosphere. Children with dental issues will be referred to TeamSmile’s Dental Home Project for long-term care. Since 2007, TeamSmile has provided over $22 million in free dental care to more than 60,000 children nationwide. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: State audit of state program for kids produced mixed results A state audit of the Georgia Family Connection Partnership, which received $30 million in funding for fiscal year 2024, revealed mixed results in improving child well-being indicators. While the program positively impacted high school graduation and teen birth rates, it showed no evidence of improvement in child abuse, low birthweight babies, or child poverty. Auditors criticized the program's decentralized model for limiting measurable impact and disagreed with the partnership’s claim that results were "promising." Established in 1991, the initiative aims to address Georgia's historically low child well-being rankings but faces challenges in demonstrating consistent statewide outcomes. STORY 5: Police: Mercedes SUV was stolen while being transported out of state Gwinnett County police are searching for a stolen 2025 matte gray Mercedes GLS with distinctive 24-inch Forgiato wheels. The SUV was last seen on June 6 when a subcontractor picked it up from a Snellville home to transport it out of state, but it never arrived. Police are seeking public assistance and encourage anyone with information to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers, which offers cash rewards for tips leading to an arrest and indictment.
