On today's What's the Why, the Arizona legislature passes the “casita bill” which would allow certain homeowners to build accessory dwelling units on their property without so much red tape. Some say it won’t help and others say it doesn’t go far enough. Arizona State Representative Analise Ortiz joins Chris and Joe and says it's a step in the right direction and explains why it's necessary.

Segunda parte de un capítulo que nos dejó mucho de qué hablar. Límites, expectativas, sometimiento, responsabilidad emocional y relaciones abusivas son algunos de los temas que analizamos y tocamos en este episodio.
En este capítulo nos acompaña Juan Manuel, marido de Aina y padre de tres niños. Comparte con nosotras su historia y el recorrido que tuvo que atravesar para definir hoy lo que es su visión de familia enlazada. Varias veces hablamos de como nos sentimos nosotras a la hora de empezar una relación con alguien que tiene hijos. Como se despiertan miedos, rechazos, ideales, y como sentimos que la pareja no parece ser nuestro gran aliado en la familia enlazada. Pero… alguna vez hablamos de cómo se sienten los padres? Realmente sabemos por lo que esta pasando nuestra pareja a la hora de abrirnos las puertas de su vida?

Disney World And Beyond with The Gold Key Adventurers Society
Disney World Hotel Tour: Coronado Springs This week, we invite you to join us on a captivating tour of Disney's Coronado Springs Resort, a remarkable Moderate level resort located within the enchanting Walt Disney World Resort. We'll be showcasing all the compelling reasons why this resort should be your top choice for your next magical stay.Check out our video tour of the resort hosted by travel host extraordinaire Cam Matthews here . First and foremost, let's explore the captivating theme and aesthetic of Disney's Coronado Springs. This original resort draws inspiration from the alluring ambiance of Spanish colonial Mexico and the American Southwest. As we venture further, you'll discover that the guest rooms are situated in three distinct areas known as Casitas, Ranchos, and Cabanas. The Casitas offer luxurious suites, making Coronado and Gran Destino Tower the only moderate resorts at Walt Disney World with such accommodations. Throughout the common areas and guest rooms, the vibrant presence of the beloved characters from "The Three Caballeros" is skillfully woven into the decor, adding an extra touch of whimsy and charm. Next, we'll delve into the magnificent Gran Destino Tower, which opened its doors in 2019. This stunning 15-story tower takes inspiration from the themes and visual aesthetics of the renowned Disney animation short film, "Destino." Originally a collaboration between Walt Disney and Salvador Dali, the film remained unfinished until 2003. The Gran Destino Tower pays homage to this artistic masterpiece, offering guests a truly immersive experience filled with elegance and sophistication. As we satisfy our appetites, we'll explore the delightful dining options available at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. The main dining venue, Coronado Springs, boasts a variety of culinary experiences, including Rix Sports Bar & Grill, Maya Grill, El Mercado de Coronado, and Cafe Rix. If you're looking for a unique dining experience, we recommend checking out Three Bridges Bar & Grill, Siestas Cantina (a charming poolside bar), and Laguna Bar, a picturesque outdoor lakeside bar. Additionally, the Gran Destino area offers Toledo, an exquisite dining destination specializing in tapas, steak, and seafood. For a more relaxed atmosphere, you can unwind at Dahlia Lounge or indulge in specialty gin drinks and Spanish-inspired appetizers at Barcelona Lounge, which also serves as an espresso bar and quick-service breakfast spot in the mornings. Of course, no trip to Disney's Coronado Springs Resort would be complete without exploring its remarkable recreational facilities. The Dig Site pool complex steals the spotlight, featuring the captivating Lost City of Cibola pool with a thrilling 123-foot waterslide—the longest on Walt Disney World property. Additionally, you'll find the largest hot tub on the property, capable of accommodating up to 22 adults, a kiddie pool, Siestas pool bar, sand volleyball court, the exciting Iguana Arcade, and the fun-filled Dig Site playground. For those seeking a more tranquil experience, the resort offers three serene quiet pools, each located in the distinct "settlement" areas of Coronado Springs. Throughout your stay, immerse yourself in the vibrant Colors of Coronado and admire the intricate Spanish Mosaic Art experiences that add an extra layer of cultural beauty to the resort. Both sections of the resort feature fitness centers to help you maintain your active lifestyle. You'll still find an array of engaging recreational activities to enjoy, including a daily campfire, nightly movies under the stars on the Gran Destino Lawn, invigorating pool parties, thrilling games, and a refreshing jogging trail for those seeking a scenic workout.

Richard Hajas, chairman of the Casitas Municipal Water District, and a lifelong water industry veteran, has been through many drought-flood cycles in his life. Born in Ventura, he's lived in Ojai for 40 years, and is a former operations manager of two major water districts: Casitas Municipal Water District and Camrosa Water District in eastern Camarillo. He's built important projects, including the innovative Camrosa Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Conejo Creek Project, the largest water recycling project in the county. He's managed every aspect of watershed planning for both residential, prime farm land and rare wetlands. In 2007 he helped organize Ojai Flow, which brought to the ballot an initiative to wrest the sale of publicly traded Golden State Mutual Water Company to Casitas, a public entity answerable to voters. He's earned a B.A. and Master's in public administration from CSU-Northridge. He joins the podcast with good news and not-so-good news for listeners; the well-above average rains may bring Lake Casitas storage to nearly 75 percent capacity from below 30 percent after five long years of drought. Casitas has enough supply for many years with proper management and the looming threat of moving to onerous Stage IV drought restrictions was avoided. Richard leads a lively session with the history of water projects in America, the future of the state, and the trends and changes in Ojai's water use from farming to residential, and what that might mean for wildland fires and the next drought. We also talk about climate change, steelhead trout and eventually hooking up Ojai's closed system to the state water projects through either Santa Barbara or Ventura. We did not talk about Bill Mazeroski's heroic deeds for the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 1960 World Series, the Blue Lagoon in Iceland or Khazak eagle hunters.

California was long thought to be the state that would produce the world record largemouth bass. First, it was the San Diego lakes that profited from the 1959 Florida bass experiment conducted by Orville Ball. Shortly after, Lake Casitas, in Ventura County, was stocked in 1968, as was Lake Castaic in 1974. By the late 1970s and early 1980s, these fisheries were producing record-class catches that began to outshine the San Diego lakes. In this episode, we discuss what happened to the famed Lake Casitas and why it will never produce a record-class fish again. Mentioned in the show: Orville Ball and the Florida Bass Experiment (https://youtu.be/G_cXIShrvJc) Jim Brown and California's BIG BASS EXPLOSION!

Welcome back to the She's Wild the Podcast for Women In Land & Development. Today's guest is Gina Wieczorek. Gina is the Co-founder of Casitas, a full-service ADU development and consulting firm involved in all phases of the design, permitting and development process within the single family, multifamily and affordable housing sector. As an Orange County native, Gina grew up with a true passion for Southern California residential design and always design and develops projects with the final user in mind, providing housing that renters and homeowners are proud to call their home in the communities in which she builds. Thoughtful and architecturally significant design, from the facade to the interiors, is always a key component to all projects Gina undertakes.In today's episode, Gina and I discuss ADU's and how they play such a big role in her niche business model. She offers a wide variety of advice throughout today's episode that is sure to inspire you to chase after the next goal you are working toward. Memorable Moments: 13:33- It's very hard to start something without having a tremendous access to capital. And, you know, a lot of women in this industry don't have that.15:41- Everyone kept coming to us is like the resource or guru for how do we add this? What do we have? What is the legislation allow for? And then it became the go-to? And I'm like, No, we could start a business out of this. Right?17:03- I think also COVID taught us a lot of lessons. There are opportunities that have existed. Because of that, I think a lot of people had a hard time and trying to figure out how to navigate what would happen next if they lost their job or if they did lose their job.18:55- I think that one lesson learned is you'll always be able to figure it out. We're resourceful, and we'll be able to figure things out, right? And don't not do something because you're scared. I also think time is too precious and too short not go after and do something that you're passionate about and what you love. And if that means pivoting into a completely different career, or within the sector doing something else, like, do it, you know, don't stay stuck in something, right? Just because, yes, you're getting a check at the end of the day.20:21- I think there's nothing like being able to look at something and saying, hey, I built this, like, this is mine; I still go by that project that's on Melrose cry in Hollywood, you know, and I really proud, like, when I drive by it, like, the role that I had to play in that. And so that is one of the most exciting parts about my job.25:44- One thing I do think is that sometimes women don't like to ask, and if you don't ask you never will receive.35:04- I don't even think being persistent is obnoxious, I think shows you that you're passionate about something and you want the opportunity.Connect with Nancy:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nancysurakLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nancysurak/Website: www.nancysurak.comConnect with Gina:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginawieczorek/Website: https://casitas.la/Gina's Podcast Recommendation's: Leading Voices in Real Estate with Matt Slepinhttps://www.terrasearchpartners.com/voices/The Competent CollectiveNancy's Hype Playlist:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0caHUGjUv8vfWiJxFOE61B?si=qSyjXD_gRmW9oSlNDMIuKgNancy's Fast Driving Playlist:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/00YC8ND05duS0uU6VBXxRv?si=MoSGR_KITLCFdXfpgyy_Ow
Should Walt Disney World Have a Scary Halloween Party? 100 episodes ago -- all the way back in episode 38 -- we talked about what we would do if we were in charge of Walt Disney World. One of the things we'd both love to see is a fifth park that has a villains theme. Disney Villains need a place to call their own. A villains park -- including our Maleficent-themed coaster called Villified -- would be the ideal location for a truly scary Disney-inspired Halloween party. So what would that be like and would you like to see Disney get a bit edgier with Halloween? -- Early Entry and Package Delivery are Now Available at DisneylandEveryone staying at a Disneyland Resort Hotel can now take advantage of both Early Entry to the parks and Package Delivery to your room. Overnight Guests at The Happiest Place on Earth can experience these perks and more, including: Proximity and direct Theme Park access Hotel activities like learning to draw Disney characters Direct-to-Room Service Dining Delivery to a Disneyland Resort Hotel lobby from select restaurants in the Downtown Disney District And coming soon, Preferred Dine Access to a limited number of reservations at select hotel table service restaurants during the dates of their hotel stay -- Disney World Hotel Pool Closure UpdatePool upgrades are ongoing at Walt Disney World and the latest one began on Sunday, August 14. The Ranchos leisure pool at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort is now closed for routine refurbishment. The pool is expected to reopen in late September, so bear that in mind if you plan to stay there anytime soon.During the refurbishment, the Dig Site Feature Pool and the Casitas and Cabanas leisure pools will remain open and available to guests.--Thank You for Listening to the Disney Travel PodcastThank you very much for listening to this episode, Amelia and I hope that you enjoyed it.

Some municipalities actively encourage ADUs, while others are still working out their opinions.Paul and Rory have an excellent conversation about where ADUs are working quite well (California and Colorado, for example), helping solve housing shortages, barriers of entry, retaining generational wealth, and supplying ways for generations to remain together on the same plots of land. They discuss the benefits of having professionals that understand the process of working with a city and a county, not just to get building permits, but to create effective and efficient designs that makes sense to that municipalities involved.Fast forward to about 28 minutes into the episode, and you'll hear Paul detail the steps and questions that he asks all of the people who contact him asking: "I'd like to build an ADU - where do I start." It's a fascinating list of questions and considerations! In this episode, we talk about:-- What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit?-- How Paul stumbled into the ADU world-- What world events caused Paul to pivot into real estate full-time-- How massive action can lead to massive success-- Paul's success with foreclosure and "subject to existing financing" investing-- The value of mentorships-- The 4 primary types of ADUs (+ a bonus type - Fonzie Flats!)-- The big roadblocks to building ADUs, even where it makes perfect sense-- Why it's important to learn the ADU regulations for your city and county-- Why should a community turn around and actually embrace ADUs?-- Multi-generational living and how ADUs might be a better option than senior livingGetting in touch with Paul:Paul on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/paul.wells.96387Paul on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coloradopaul007/ADU Class - aduclass.comEmail Paul - workingcolorado@gmail.comJoin Jason Muth and Attorney / Broker Rory Gill of NextHome Titletown and UrbanVillage Legal in Boston, Massachusetts for another episode of The Real Estate Law Podcast!#realestatepodcast #nexthome #humansoverhouses #realestate #realestateinvesting #grannyflat #realestatelaw #accessorydwellingunit #building #adu #casita #guesthouse #backyardhouse #adurules_____________________The Real Estate Law Podcast is hosted by Jason Muth and Attorney / Broker Rory Gill.This podcast and these show notes are not legal advice, but we hope you find both entertaining and informative.You can follow our sponsors here:NextHome Titletown Real Estate on InstagramNextHome Titletown Real Estate on FacebookNextHome Titletown Real Estate on LinkedInAttorney Rory Gill on LinkedInThe Real Estate Law Podcast, because real estate is more than just pretty pictures and law goes well beyond the paperwork and courtroom arguments.Support the show (https://www.urbanvillagelegal.com)

Hablamos de películas para ver el día de muertos y no salir de nuestras casitas
Es octubre, uno de nuestros meses favoritos, principalmente porque es en este mes cuando podemos hacer maratones de las casitas del horror de Los Simpson. Ya hablamos de lo malo ahora toca hablar de porque La Casita del Horror V es la mejor y Homero ³ el mejor segmento de todos!
Es octubre, uno de nuestros meses favoritos, principalmente porque es en este mes cuando podemos hacer maratones de las casitas del horror de Los Simpson. En este episodio hablaremos un poco sobre porque los especiales de Halloween ya no son lo que eran (como mi vieja mula) y de algunas de las peores casitas del horror.
Cuando eres ligero de cascos y estas escaso de de ideas de peso, te pasa lo que a las casitas de campaña de Frenaaa en el Zócalo: se las lleva el viento. La imagen es bonita: coloridas carpas de plástico flotando por los aires, dejándose llevar por los vientos huracanados. Política cero
En esta primera entrega se la dedicamos a los mejores capítulos, las mejores Casitas del Horror y a las mejores temporadas. Además nos preguntamos: ¿cuál es la edad de oro? ¿cuándo se dio su decadencia?
BE SURE TO SEE THE SHOWNOTES AND LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE HERE. Eve Picker: [00:00:17] Hi there, thanks so much for joining me today for the latest episode of Impact Real Estate Investing. Eve: [00:00:24] My guest today is Katie Swenson. Katie joined MASS Design in 2020 as a senior principal after having worked for many years on affordable housing with enterprise community partners. There she was, a vice president of Design and Sustainability. Her role at MASS, a design practice that embraces issues of economic and social equity, is to help them to define Mass Version 2.0. Eve: [00:01:06] Katie's career has spanned both arts and design, from comparative literature to modern dance. When she finally decided to attend graduate school, she chose architecture as her discipline. And that's when the magic really started to happen. "It allowed me to become a community-based architect," she says, "one who brings ideas to the local level and works with the city and community to make things happen." Eve: [00:01:37] Be sure to go to evepicker.com to find out more about Katie on the show notes page for this episode. And be sure to sign up for my newsletter so you can access information about impact real estate investing and get the latest news about the exciting projects on my crowdfunding platform, Small change. Eve: [00:02:00] So hello, Katie. Thank you so much for spending some time with me today. Katie Swenson: [00:02:04] So glad to be here. Thank you, Eve. Eve: [00:02:07] I'm really fascinated. You've built a career around this question: How do we create an equitable, sustainable, affordable city? And I'm just wondering how you would answer that very big question. Katie: [00:02:20] Yes. Thank you for that question. How do we create an equitable, affordable, sustainable city and communities, I would say, as well. Eve: [00:02:30] Yes. Katie: [00:02:30] You know, my work has taken me into communities mostly across the United States, both large cities and small cities, rural communities and tribal communities. And I think at the base of everything that we've been trying to do is to understand how people can create lives for themselves and their families that give them the opportunity to become and be the people that they want to be, to live lives with purpose and dignity and have the resources and abilities to contribute to the world at large and to their families. So I think that has to happen and in all kinds of environments, certainly so much of the focus of both the sort of economic engines as well as a lot of the environmental work has been around densifying cities and creating cities as urban centers where so much of our work and life can happen. But I think it's also important to understand the broad spectrum of communities that we have throughout the United States and understand that we need to address critical issues around housing and jobs and health and education resources for everybody in the country. Eve: [00:04:01] Basically, one one size does not fit all, right? Katie: [00:04:04] You know, America is much more diverse, I think, than we necessarily give it credit. I've had the incredible opportunity over the last dozen years to really travel quite a lot throughout the United States. And last year, I partnered with a photographer named Harry Connolly and the two of us have been working on a book that we called 'Design with Love at Home in America'. And we went and revisited 10 of the communities where we've been working in partnership for many years with local community development corporations. And the experience kind of re-revealed for me how diverse America really is, from border communities to very rural tribal communities. We worked in geographic diverse locations from the Mississippi Delta through Yakima, Washington, which is sort of the breadbasket of America for produce and fruit production, through inner cities in Baltimore and elsewhere. So, I think one size does not fit all in some ways and in other ways, of course, there are so many common themes that unite best efforts throughout the country. Eve: [00:05:33] Yes, I think about one size does not fit all, I immediately think about, you know, the very typical residential project that developers will build, which really seems to be one size for all. And what you're describing is something very much more diverse. Katie: [00:05:53] Yeah, I think that communities need to grow to reflect themselves. That's the essence of place-based attitude towards building MASS Design. We have talked too often about the provenence of a building. You think of, let's say, wine that comes from a certain region and is grown from a certain type of soil. And buildings and communities also have the opportunity to be grown from their place and to be designed, really, in concert with the values and ambitions and aesthetics and goals of the people who both are responsible for creating them and then will live and grow their own communities. So, yes, I think it's really important to understand that diversity is not an abstract goal, but is the result of, sort of, expression of an environment and that of people and community values that create something that's unique and individual to a place. Eve: [00:07:09] Yeah, I love that thought that a building has a provenance. I think that's great. So, the question of the architect's role within community has sort of continued to grow and change in recent years, but I don't think it's fully formed yet. And how would you like to see that role continue to evolve? Katie: [00:07:28] You know, through our work with the Enterprise Rose Fellowship program, we've learned a lot about a role that an architect can play in local communities. So, just to give a little bit of context, I worked for almost 15 years at Enterprise Community Partners. Back in 2001 to 2004 I participated in a program called the Enterprise Rose Fellowship Program and as an aspiring architect, I was partnered with a community-based development corporation. And the goal was to bring an architect or designer on to the development team of a community development group. The Community Development Group could use the resources of a dedicated designer, and the designer would be able to learn the ins and outs of not only affordable housing development, but also community engagement processes and the regulatory processes that contribute to the creation for affordable housing. So, over these past nearly 20 years, Enterprise has partnered 85 Rose Fellows with community-based groups, and it's been an incredible privilege to be able to witness the growth that has happened through these partnerships. Each one has looked very different. In all cases, there are definitely some sort of underlying values. The architects who are attracted to this work and who succeed at it are generally very humble people who approach the work with the desire to uplift, first and foremost, the goals of the community, but also have to be able to be both brave enough and resourceful to bring the best resources from the architectural and design communities to sort of bear in the local work. So, it's been wonderful to watch these relationships and partnerships grow over time, and each one has resulted in very different kinds of outcomes. Eve: [00:09:49] Do you want to give me some examples? What should a community architect be thinking about that's perhaps different than a rock star architect might be thinking about? Katie: [00:09:58] Absolutely, I'd be happy to share a few examples. I think I would start back in the early days, maybe in 2001, when David Flores was partnered with a community group in San Ysidro, California, called Casa Familiar. A local non-profit that is now about 50 years old and has been working as a kind of community organizer in San Ysidro for many years, helping families navigate life on both sides of the border and provide affordable housing and other community development resources in San Ysidro. And David Flores was a member of my class of fellows, so we both started work in 2001. At the beginning, David started building what he called Casitas, small houses along some of the alleys in the historic part of San Ysidro. But I think he quickly started to realize what the larger challenges that families were facing at the border, including, of course, the border itself. And as the San Ysidro land port of entry has expanded and increased its, I guess, militarization of the border process for crossing, it also took up more space and land space in the community, more energy and also, because of the long wait times to cross the border, was creating environmental effects from stalled vehicles. So David, not only has been working as the design director at Casa Familiar, he was there for almost 20 years working to oversee the development of affordable housing in the neighborhood, but he also joined, for a time, he led the Planning Commission efforts and he got involved in the design and planning of the border control station so that it would be more receptive and welcoming to pedestrians and people crossing each way. And he got involved in environmental studies and testing air quality in the region. Katie: [00:12:16] So I think that architects and designers like David show that an architect's job is not only on distinct projects, that, absolutely he's been involved in helping to realize some very beautiful pieces of architecture including a project which just opened recently that Teddy Cruz and Fonna Forman designed for Casa Familiar, a longtime project in development. But that these building blocks of housing and libraries and parks also need to be knitted together into a larger point of view and larger ability to help a community, as a whole, feel supported and able to grow a family's life and capabilities in some of the most stressful, you know, environments that we have here in the country. Eve: [00:13:16] That's a lovely story. So, I'd really love to hear about how you came to be such a powerful advocate for equitable cities and communities and where did that passion come from? I think you started life academically in a very different place by the sounds of it. Katie: [00:13:32] Yes, I was asked recently who one of my architectural mentors was and, as a child, and I said my mom and the response was one of surprise, actually, and I thought it was so interesting because my mom was a professional, but she was also a home maker. And I've been thinking about these words, not homemaker, one word, but home maker, maybe two words. And I think in many ways, I grew up with a very strong attachment to home, the idea of home, the physical reality of home, how both the design and feeling of your home as well as the stability and platform that your home kind of provides you is just a critical piece of this formation of who you are. And I think in high school, while I had a very stable and wonderful home, I also had the chance to volunteer for what started as a month engagement and ended up being a little over a year and a half at a homeless shelter in Boston. And I think that in the mid-eighties, when homelessness was starting to, kind of, take hold of America and we had, kind of, a high point in the mid-80s, I realize now that actually has not dissipated much. So for me, as a high school student, sort of understanding this dichotomy, not just the power of my own home and what it meant for me, but what happens when you don't have a home and how slippery a slope it becomes and how quickly life can fall apart without a stable home. So I think that this has guided so much of my passion for my work and while it hasn't necessarily been a linear path in terms of my career, I studied comparative literature as an undergrad and I have spent time as a modern dancer and I've done a lot of different things throughout my life, but some core essence around the importance of home and making homes, making my own home and making homes for others has been something that has driven me as long as I can remember and to this day. Eve: [00:16:12] You also sound like you've had a lot of fun. And, you know, I think people have this idea that your life should be linear. But I think, you know, all of those interesting things that you've done must surely feed into what you do now and the way you look at the world and I love that idea. I wanted to talk a little bit about the pandemic as well. It's taken me a while to get my brain around it, but I'm starting to think about what does it mean? And what does our world look like when and if it comes to an end? And if it wasn't already bad enough, the affordable housing crisis just got a lot worse with the onset of the pandemic and many people losing their jobs. And I don't even know how to begin to think about how the U.S. can tackle this monster problem and I'm wondering if you have any thoughts about that. Katie: [00:17:04] Oh boy. Well, I wish I could say that I was able to get my mind around what this is going to mean for all of us. I think we're still in this period of profound uncertainty. And I am really grateful for the wide-spread activism that I've seen from the housing community, first and foremost, on protecting renters and working to stop evictions and understand that that's one critical base of all of this is, again, I guess, the importance of having a home right now. We talk about stay at home, right? Stay at home. Eve: [00:17:43] If you don't have a home, how do you stay at home, right? Yeah. Katie: [00:17:47] Oh, my goodness. I mean, that means very different things for different people. And the importance of home has maybe never been so, kind of, revealed, right? I heard Governor Cuomo talking about the subways in New York, ridership is down 92 percent and they were going to start to close the subways in the mid-morning hours because many people were in many ways taking up residence on the subways. Eve: [00:18:16] Oh wow. Katie: [00:18:16] So this kind of crisis around home, whether it's becoming increasingly unaffordable because you're out of work, whether it's a place that is not safe, perhaps. I mean, not everybody is living at home in a safe environment or you have no home. So, we think this moment, certainly we all want to, kind of, understand what is the future of, you know, our public transit system, what is the future of our work spaces, what's the future of the restaurant and food industry? There's so many questions, but I think one of the most elemental questions is going to have to be what is the future of our housing policy and are we going to use this moment when it could not be more clear how important it is, both for each of us as individuals and for all of us as a society, to be able to safely house every member of our community? Eve: [00:19:26] Yeah, and more, you know, you can't really say that home is just a roof over your head because there's so much inequity around who has a computer and who has broadband, and if you even have a place to work in your home. And I think all of that, surely, has to come into play as well. If we're really looking at schools being closed, and I know my husband's a teacher and his university is already talking about online classes only in the fall, all of that is going to really matter quickly. I mean, as an architect, I'm grappling with, you know, what does that mean in the way we even design homes and cities? Katie: [00:20:07] You know, in some ways, you're right in that this is sort of exciting time to think about home, right? I think everybody's looking around and going like, oh, my goodness I have to sort of expect so much more of this space. And I hope that that notion of expecting more from our buildings and our spaces is one of the things that will come out of this time. You know, the idea that our buildings need to keep us healthy is an idea that really attracted me originally to MASS Design Group who started during a tuberculosis epidemic and designing hospitals with the goal of having the hospital itself, the building itself, participate in enhancing the health of the staff and patients and visitors who experienced it. That the buildings have such a role to play. Buildings shape us, they shape our experience. They shape our health outcomes. And so, I hope that this will be a moment where we are understanding that we need to ask more of our buildings and participate in a greater spatial awareness and spatial literacy to understand the profound effects that the built environment in general, and the buildings that we occupy in specific, have on our health outcomes and our quality of life and productivity outcomes and that we gain a sort of awareness and capabilities around our ambitions for the built environment. Eve: [00:21:59] Yeah, and that, you know, the buildings shape cities. And I think cities, too, will need to be re-thought in terms of how do you make them safe places for larger groups of people? You know, some cities in other countries are starting to think about changes to their transportation patterns or, in Lithuania they've given over all public spaces to outdoor restaurants so restaurants can operate again. I mean, these are kind of baby steps but in amongst the misery of all of this, it's interesting to watch how creative people can be. That's encouraging, I think. Katie: [00:22:37] It's hard to talk about silver linings at this moment. I mean, I think people are going to be experiencing so much grief of all kinds from lost loved ones to lost, you know, hopes or experiences. So, there's going to be just a wide swath of, kind of, having to recover from this moment but, as you say, there's also a lot of opportunities that are being revealed. Like in New York City, where they're coming up with strategies to re-occupy the city streets in a different way, I think that's so exciting. And I think it's really important, I mean, if home is important, though is. I guess, you know, the old words home and garden, right? Home is as equally reflected in the sort of outdoor space. and I think our ability to kind of get more creative about understanding how we can use our outdoor spaces more effectively is really important. Katie: [00:23:39] I also think that different kinds of projects. We have just been involved in a project in a community in West Baltimore where neighborhood leaders started leading the charge to create a park where there had been three homes which, over time in a disinvested area of Baltimore, had been first made vacant and then started to deteriorate and eventually were taken down and the lots that were left had become a dumping grounds. And one of the local neighbors, so a block leader, a block captain on his block, his name is Donald Quarles, started working with one of our Rose Fellows and his neighborhood group and the Bon Secours Community Development Group to clean up first this lot and now turn it into what has become this incredibly beautiful small pocket park that they call Kirby Lane Park. And the process has taken about two years and we figure that in the end, it's been mostly volunteer labor, but the hard costs have been less than one unit of housing costs to create in that community. And it's provided this outdoor space, a kind of backyard or a front porch, whatever you want to call it, for this community at large. So I think from big ideas to how do we re-occupy city streets and city parks and beaches, to small ideas of how to prioritize and re-integrate smaller outdoor spaces into our day-to-day lives, there are lots of models and ideas that we need to be working on simultaneously at different scales. Eve: [00:25:41] I think what excites me is the people I talk to who are incredibly creative and they're all going to put the brainpower to this. I can't wait to see how they make things better. It's fascinating to me. But, in the meantime, I would just like to ask you one final question, and that is what's next for you? You have a brand, new job with MASS Design Group and where's that going to lead you? Katie: [00:26:06] Oh yes, it is so exciting. I started at MASS Design on February 3rd. I've been a friend and sort of champion and cheerleader to the organization since 2010 when I first met them and then had joined their board. So, I came on full-time in February, thank goodness, really just in time to be able to participate in this moment with this incredible group. Katie: [00:26:34] So, the very first morning that we, sort of were all getting on our first Zoom call with one hundred and twenty five people from around the world at nine a.m. Eastern Time on Monday morning, one of our design directors, Chris Scovel, had gotten a call from one of our partners at Boston Health Care for the Homeless, saying that were going to be putting up some makeshift tents to be able to test and treat people without homes in Boston and would we look at the plans? And so, Chris and a team got on to making really makeshift design recommendations. We're not calling them designs because it's not about designing a tent or creating something ideal in any way, it's about trying to apply our experience and design for infection control that we've learned over many years through, not only tuberculosis, but also Ebola and cholera, and to understand with our medical partners how Covid19 is manifesting itself and what can we do from a spatial guidance to help limit contagion and keep health care workers and patients healthier. So we started in on this immediately and realized that if one group needed it, as one partner needed it, probably so did others. So, we set off on this kind of larger understanding about, how can we use our spatial cues, spatial literacy, to help respond in this crisis? You know, I think that obviously architects are not on the frontlines of this crisis. Health care workers are on the frontlines of this crisis and make no mistake about it, but the rub is that our buildings are on the front lines. And so, we need to be there, showing up to understand how do we need to adapt? What are the retrofits that we need to do? How can we learn from this experience so that our buildings are able to support health care workers, to be able to support our communities, getting back into our lives in so many ways, but to do it safely? Katie: [00:29:04] It's been an incredible process and I feel very, very lucky to work not only with an incredible team at MASS, but also such a robust network of amazing partners both in the medical fields and in all of the sort of social service fields. Eve: [00:29:22] Well, I really can't wait to see what comes next. And thank you very much for spending this time with me today. Katie: [00:29:30] Thank you. Really a pleasure to join you and we'll look forward to having this conversation evolve and thanks for highlighting all the creative efforts. Appreciate it. Eve: [00:29:41] Thank you. Eve: [00:29:56] That was Katie Swenson. I loved that her early professional years meandered through the arts from comparative literature to dance before she landed on architecture. Her trajectory shows that climbing the ladder is not necessarily the path to success. Her career as a community architect started later than most but that didn't stop her from becoming a star in the field. And she brought with her creativity and a human passion for making better places for everyone.

México ocupa el segundo lugar en América Latina en cantidad de niños abandonados 1.6 millones de casos, después de Brasil, que encabeza la lista con 3.7 millones de los 10 millones 700 mil censados en toda Latinoamérica. Niños recién nacidos, hasta cuatro años son abandonados, en iglesias, parques, botes de basura, baños públicos u otros sitios más. El diputado del PAN, en la Asamblea Legislativa del Distrito Federal (ALDF), Orlando Anaya González, integrante de la Comisión de Atención de Grupos Vulnerables, dijo a los radio escucha de “VOCES AL AIRE”, que se trasmite por el 760 de ABC, que en la ciudad de México existen cerca de 28 mil 107 niños en situación de abandono o desamparo, viven en coladeras o lotes baldíos y requieren respuestas eficaces de las autoridades para reintegrarlos a la sociedad. Explicó que La Red por los Derechos de la Infancia en México afirmó que hasta 2010 había en el país 29 mil 310 menores de edad que no contaban con cuidados familiares ni institucionales, y advirtió que la falta de información oficial confiable respecto a cuántos menores se encuentran en albergues, quiénes son, dónde y cómo están, aumenta más el riesgo de maltrato e impunidad en contra de estos menores. También recordó el diputado del PAN, que el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (Inegi) informó que hasta el año pasado se tenían censados a cerca de 28 mil 107 niños, niñas y adolescentes habitando en casas-hogar, orfanatos y casas de cuna de todo el país. Recordó el legislador que durante un foro, convocado a diputados, autoridades y representantes de asociaciones civiles que se avocan a la atención de esa problemática, CARECE GOBIERNO DE CIFRAS OFICIALES El diputado del PAN, Orlando Anaya reconoció que se carece de cifras reales del fenómeno de los niños en situación de calle. Citó datos del censo levantado en 1999 por el DIF nacional y de la UNICEF, según los cuales en esta capital se tiene un registro de 14 mil 322 menores que utilizan la vía pública para trabajar. Miles de niños, expresó el legislador, viven en situación de calle, es decir, niños o jóvenes que carecen de una vivienda y se hallan en graves condiciones de marginación y vulnerabilidad social. Añadió que la Secretaría de Desarrollo Social (SEDESO), tiene detectados 147 puntos de encuentro de niños y niñas en situación de calle, los cuales se localizan en 10 de las 16 delegaciones políticas, fundamentalmente en la Cuauhtémoc, con 83 sitios, mientras que la Gustavo A. Madero y la Venustiano Carranza tienen 15 cada una. Frente a ese panorama, dijo, es que se presentó la mencionada iniciativa de reformas para que el Gobierno del Distrito Federal (GDF) pueda hacerse cargo de los menores que deambulan sin mayor futuro por las calles de esta capital, y logre su rescate integral. La población abandonada llega a tener un promedio de vida de 25 años, y su destino llega a ser la explotación infantil, la drogadicción, la pornografía, la delincuencia o la muerte, por lo que se debe atender de manera pronta esa situación, pues los datos muestran una tendencia creciente. CASITAS DEL SUR Recordó los hechos ocurridos en Casitas del Sur, albergue temporal de la Procuraduría General de Justicia del Distrito Federal (PGJDF), “que además funcionaba bajo la figura de reintegración social, que era una asociación civil y en realidad no la supervisaba nadie, resultó que los niños eran “mercancía para ellos“. Expuso que en este lugar fueron rescatados 126 menores que eran maltratados y se detectó la desaparición de 22, ya que la misma asociación civil administraba albergues en Cancún y Monterrey, donde también se registró la desaparición de menores. En el Distrito Federa, en 2012, se reportó que de cada dos personas abandonadas una era un menor de edad de entre cuatro y 11 años El niño abandonado es aquél donde se tienen los antecedentes de los padres. Y en el caso del niño expósito: no tiene ningún dato de los familiares. El diputado del PAN, en la ALDF, explica al director general del diario nacional “EL PUNTO CRITICO”, y director del programa de radio “VOCES AL AIRE”, Eduardo Ramos Fusther, que a pesar de que el artículo 335 del Código Penal Federal indica: "Al que abandone a un niño incapaz de cuidarse así mismo o a una persona enferma, teniendo obligación de cuidarlos, se le aplicarán de un mes a cuatro años de prisión, si no resultare daño alguno". "Si el menor tuvo lesiones a consecuencia de ese abandono o el abandono trajo como consecuencia la muerte por inanición o por otros factores que surgieron alrededor, entonces puede venir una sanción que puede ser de 8 a 20 años de prisión", la gente siguen abandonando a sus hijos. En el 2012 se abrieron, en la Ciudad de México, 206 averiguaciones previas por el delito de abandono de personas; en uno de cada dos casos se trató de menores de edad. De ese total el 50 % tenía de cuatro a 11 años, mientras que dos de cada 10 niños oscilaban entre uno y tres años. “La mayoría de las madres que abandonan a sus hijos son jóvenes pobres y con poca educación”. Afirma un psicólogo. También puede ser una adolescente que niega su embarazo y que tiene su hijo a escondidas. Podría ser una mujer que desea tener a su hijo pero se siente abandonada por la sociedad y esta lo abandona en una iglesia o en una institución benéfica. Lamentablemente los casos de abandono de los hijos ocurren con mayor frecuencia en los estados sociales más bajos de todo el país. Es allí donde hay una gran cantidad de mujeres trabajando en la calle y que hacen de madre y padre a la vez. Es un asunto realmente crítico. Explica el senador que se desea presentar la realidad de la infancia abandonada como un problema social de la actualidad, que afecta a todos sin distinción de razas, religión, sexo, condición monetaria ni política, afectando directamente los cimientos del futuro que son los niños. Se debe encontrar un control que conllevaría a un mejor desenvolvimiento social y por ende a engrandecer nuestro país, ya que disminuye la infancia abandonada, así como el analfabetismo, abandono higiénico, alimenticio y social de los niños; Preparando a los futuros hombres y mujeres para tomar las riendas del país en el nuevo milenio. El abandono de la infancia para nosotras se debe a que cada día se agudiza más en nuestro país este problema, de profunda preocupación para sociólogos, políticos, gobernantes trabajadores sociales y otros, debido a que cada día aumenta la delincuencia. Y los niños son los primeros en cometer ciertos actos bandálicos. Siendo una de las causas la irresponsabilidad de muchos padres al no asumir sus deberes. http://www.elpuntocritico.com/opinion/columnistas/188-opinion-general/66291-m%C3%A9xico,-segundo-lugar-en-ni%C3%B1os-abandonados.html
