The majority of meetings of a new partnership set up to "prioritise the voice of local communities in identifying community safety issues" in Clare will take place behind closed doors. Clare's Local Community Safety Partnership, which consists of 26 members including seven local elected representatives, has convened for the first time this week and will meet Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan today. It's understood a minimum of six meetings of the partnership will take place each year but only one of these will be open to the media. Former Sixmilebridge councillor PJ Ryan, who's been named the group's Chairperson, says it "remains to be seen" if there'll be more transparency in the future.

For the first time, the entire value chain — from actors and writers to producers, crew, editors and post-production professionals — will march together in what organisers describe as an unprecedented show of unity. At the heart of the protest is mounting frustration with the DTIC Film and TV Incentive, which industry bodies say has been paralysed by mismanagement, leaving hundreds of millions of rand in foreign direct investment bottlenecked.

If you have been a reader of MinistryWatch over the years, you probably know about GRACE. GRACE is an acronym that stands for Godly Response to Abuse in Christian Environments. GRACE is also a nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing, addressing, and responding to abuse within Christian institutions. Founded to support survivors and promote accountability, GRACE provides independent investigations, consulting, training, and educational resources for churches, schools, ministries, and nonprofit organizations. Its work emphasizes trauma-informed care, best practices for safeguarding, and ethical leadership. By combining professional expertise with a survivor-centered approach, GRACE seeks to help Christian organizations confront abuse honestly, care well for victims, and create safer environments that reflect integrity, transparency, and respect for human dignity. We have used GRACE resources often in our work here at MinistryWatch. Now, GRACE has a new president. The former president, Pete Singer, who has been a guest of this program, died last May, and after a nationwide search, the group named a new president, Laura Thien, who is my guest today. Laura Thien brings more than eighteen years of service to survivors of child abuse, sexual assault, and other trauma—experience that spans work in adoptions, clinical practice, and victim advocacy, and non-profit Board leadership. For many years, she provided support and treatment for survivors of sexual trauma at Julie Valentine Center, a community-based sexual trauma recovery center and CAC (Child Advocacy Center) in Greenville, SC. Laura has a distinguished history of non-profit board leadership, having served as Chairperson for the board of directors for GRACE, Julie Valentine Center, and the Greenville County Sheriff's Office Citizens' Advisory Board. She has also served on the board of directors of the South Carolina Network of Child Advocacy Centers. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh.

New Yorker Jill Chalsty tried retiring in both South Carolina and Florida—without success. By the end of 2024, she was still recovering from a battle with cancer and grieving the loss of her husband. Looking for a fresh start, Jill decided to explore potential retirement destinations by embarking on an around-the-world cruise aboard Cunard's Queen Anne. The ship departed from Brooklyn in January 2025, visiting 26 ports across six continents over four months. After a long but rewarding journey, Jill came to an unexpected conclusion: the best place for her to retire was right where she had been all along—Manhattan. Find out more about Jill's search for a new place to call home on Episode 220 of Retire There with Gil & Gene. Link in bio.

What happens when the thing you worked so hard to build no longer feels like the life you want to be living? In this episode of SUPERWOMEN, Rebecca sits down with Ara Katz, co-founder of Seed, to talk about ambition, loss, and the moments that quietly redirect your life. Ara shares how stepping away from a high-growth tech company and reconnecting with her passion for science led her to build Seed, a microbiome company grounded in clinical rigor rather than wellness hype.
