Podcasts about department of human services

    Slam the Gavel welcomes back Debbie Carroll to the podcast, Debbie was last on Season 5, Episodes 167 and 180. Today we talked about the Frost case:In 2022, El Paso County in Colorado Springs, Colorado, placed four siblings into the homes of their mother and their aunt.  Both women were living with registered sex offenders.  Three months later, they received a call from the youngest child's school about the boy's terrible physical battering. The Court DID NOT admonish Department of Human Services for their neglectful failure to investigate the women's homes before sending children to them. The judge DID NOT accuse them of reckless child endangerment. Instead, the Court congratulated the Department of Human Services for the good job they had done in the emergency situation they handled at the time!It appears that this judge doesn't know the difference between a safe parent and a crafted scheme to take children from him and put them into a child sex trafficking ring. Instead,in December 2024, she terminated the parental rights of  the protective FATHER  of the of the children.  She ignored the fact that he had contacted the pollice more than 15 times in the two years leading up to the department removing the children from him over allegations that were founded to be false. We will be looking at the documents that show that the department engineered a no-fault plea arrangement that was never made by the father, and the criminal records of the perpetrators that were ignored.To Reach Debbie Carroll:  Debbie.car@considerationnonprofit.org***** Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Ripoli v. State of Rhode Island Department of Human Services

The Department of Human Services has lost at least 85,000 children who crossed the border illegally as “unaccompanied minors” after placing them with “sponsors” who may be trafficking the children into prostitution or forced labor, according to multiple government whistleblowers. Joe Biden formally rejected on Monday a bill in Congress that would require individuals to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office. The Biden campaign released an ad that attacks Supreme Court justices because he is the incumbent with nothing to run on that the American people believe is good for America. Becky Pringle, president of the National Education Association, the country's largest teachers union, was mocked for a “totally unhinged” speech in which she shouted about winning “all the things.” Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/support Americans Who Made America: 18th Century – Birth of the RepublicHow much should you allocate to gold?Is Gold Better Than Silver or Vice Versa? Get an automatic $250 applied to your account when you purchase from my Gold Company, Harvard Gold Group...Just mention Tim Tapp or Tapp into the Truth!

On Wednesday 19 June 2024, the Government of South Australia officially launched the first ever Autism Strategy –a five-year roadmap for South Australia to address the barriers faced by Autistic people across all life areas and support them to achieve their goals and aspirations. The launch of the Strategy marks a significant milestone in South Australia's journey to being the nation's leading autism inclusive state, and to build knowledge, understanding and sense of belonging for South Australia's Autistic and autism communities.Meaningful cultural change and greater inclusion in our community can only come about by consulting, listening, and creating open dialogue with the autistic and autism communities. The voices of South Australia's Autistic and autism communities have been the driving force behind the development of this Strategy. Over 1,300 submissions were received during the first and second public consultation processes conducted by the Department of Human Services.This process makes it one of the largest public consultation processes conducted on disability-related matters in South Australia and one of the most significant co-designed strategies to date.The release of the SA Autism Strategy 2025-2029 will be followed by the development of 7 Action Plans to drive initiatives and improvements across each of the Strategy's commitments.The SA Autism Strategy 2024-2029 is now available to view online at the website autismstrategy.sa.gov.auIn this segment, we hear from Reece Turtur, Manager Strategy within the Department of Human Services' Strategic Policy and Reform unit. Dasha Kolesik, Member of the State Autism Strategy Advisory Committee

Stronger, more effective and transparent screening laws came into effect in South Australia on 1 July 2019, requiring people who work or volunteer with children to have a Working with Children Check (WWCC). A WWCC is valid for 5 years. Workers in child-related roles need to apply again and receive clearance before their current check expires. If your WWCC expires in the next 6 months, it's time to apply again now. Apply online at www.sa.gov.au/wwcc.Not sure when your check expires? The DHS Screening Unit will try to contact you by SMS and email when your check is close to expiry – but you don't have to wait to hear from us. You can go online to www.sa.gov.au/wwcc to update your contact details and confirm the expiry date of your check.When you apply, you'll need to provide:·       any previous names you've had, including maiden names, aliases or nicknames·       your address details for the last five years·       proof of IDPlease allow plenty of time for your application to be processed – we recommend at least 3 months. Complex applications can take longer to process.Need help or have questions? You can phone the Screening Unit on 1300 321 592 (Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm). You can also learn more online at www.sa.gov.au/wwcc.In this segment, we hear from Ruth Ambler and Belinda Haines. Ruth is the Deputy Chief Executive of the Department of Human Services.

Pavely is a South Australian smartphone app that's helping to foster more inclusive communities. Pavely acts as a directory of accessible venues and facilities across South Australia, so people can rate and review their experiences. It lets people search for venues and services based on accessibility ratings and inclusive features like a venue's entrance, amenities, parking and options for assistance, and vision and sensory needs.Pavely is about making it quick and easy for people with disability or accessibility needs (or those close to them) to find new places to go, or things to see and do.Its incredible value is in its community-driven nature. Given people with disability or accessibility needs – or their carers, family and friends – are themselves pinning locations and sharing their knowledge and experiences, others using the app can rest assured that these spots are highly rated.In this segment, we hear from Reece Turtur, Manager, Strategy within the Department of Human Services' Strategic Policy and Reform unit. Evan Johnson,  a 3rd year member of the South Australian Government's Disability Engagement Group and currently an allied health assistant working in the neurodiverse affirming space with Autistic individuals and ADHDers.

South Australians with disability, their families, carers and the disability sector are being asked to share how the state can be made more accessible and inclusive.  A public consultation is now underway to shape the next State Disability Inclusion Plan, which will be used to inform a new strategy from 2024.  Community members can share feedback via an online survey or make a submission via email, with a discussion paper available for further information. The new plan will build on the inaugural and soon-to-expire State Disability Inclusion Plan – Inclusive SA and will work alongside the State Autism Strategy. It will also be guided by the state's commitments under Australia's Disability Strategy (ADS).  In this segment, we hear from Ksharmra Brandon,  Director Social Inclusion at the Department of Human Services. At present, Ksharmra is responsible for leading legislative and policy reform to drive social inclusion in the state, including disability, LGBTIQA+, carers, volunteers and youth reform, in addition to the development of the State's first Autism Strategy.

The ITC is a commercial government business unit under DHS, offering interpreting and translation services in over 100 languages for South Aussies with limited English. Most often, these services are needed in medical scenarios, the courts, or generally where life-altering decisions can be made. There are currently quite a big shortage of interpreters and translators in some surprising languages, including Greek, Italian and Spanish. While one might think it's easy to grab a neighbour or friend to help you during that specialist appointment or with legal negotiations, it's an unwise move when discussing personal matters you don't want others to know about, or where technical terminology might get 'lost in translation'. The ITC is hoping to recruit more interpreters - people who have a heart to help their communities, who speak both English and their native language fluently, who may have the time to consider casual employment, and would be willing to get an official qualification to do so. In this segment, we hear from Olga Laparidis, Director of Concessions and Support Services within the Department of Human Services. The ITC is a commercial government business unit that falls under her directorate. Teo Spiniello who is a contracted interpreter and translator for the ITC. He is fluent in Italian and a NAATI qualified interpreter.  

40,000 South Australians gamble at risky levels and for every one of those gamblers, between 3 and 6 other people are affected. Harms experienced by gamblers and their loved ones include financial harm, damage to relationships, emotional/psychological distress, poor health, cultural harm, issues with work/study, and criminal activity. People do not always recognise they are experiencing gambling harm until it's too late and they are experiencing crisis. That's why, for Gambling Harm Awareness Week 2023, the Office for Problem Gambling has launched a digital media campaign called 'Gambling Harm Ahead'.  Using insights from people with lived experience in gambling harm, four key messages were developed to highlight the early signs of gambling harm that people can sometimes miss. This campaign marks a change in direction in harm minimisation messaging that previously focused on individuals in gaming venues already experiencing a high level of harm. In contrast, the ‘Gambling Harm Ahead' campaign takes a public health approach to gambling harm minimisation aiming to educate the community and prevent harm from escalating. The campaign has a strong presence on several digital platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube as well as metro and regional radio to deliver the message more broadly.‘Gambling Harm Ahead' launched on 15 October for Gambling Harm Awareness Week 2023 and will conclude on 4 November 2023.In this segment we hear from, Rory Spreckley, Manager, Office for Problem Gambling and has worked in the SA Government for several years and has a background in assisting disadvantaged and vulnerable communities. Andrew, a participant in the Lived Experience in Gambling Program run by Relationships Australia SA. Ramune/Tracey, the coordinator/manager of the LEIGH program and will be supporting Andrew to tell their story.

Staff will decide which emails contain official records that should be saved, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Sports betting is growing in popularity in South Australia.

The State Government has launched an important public awareness campaign targeting young people to ‘see the signs' of coercive control. The campaign – which is rolling out across social media platforms and can also be seen on bus shelters around the metro area – encourages young women and men to be aware of the ‘red flags' associated with controlling behaviours. Coercive control is an invisible form of domestic violence. It refers to a pattern of behaviour that can include threats, humiliation, stalking and manipulation, and is used to erode a victim's confidence or ability to escape an abusive relationship.The awareness campaign comes as the government is undertaking community consultation and preparing to criminalise coercive control in South Australia.To view the campaign, go to: seethesigns.sa.gov.auIn this segment, we hear from Shelaye Boothey, Director of Communications and Engagement, Department of Human Services and Kelly-ann Tansley, CEO, Zahra Foundation.

Lamont Banks, Cliff Stewart, and Lisa Stewart of the Colorado exoneration firm A Just Cause discuss what happens when the wheels of justice trample unbridled over the rights of innocent Americans.   Although the American system of justice is the most-respected worldwide, it is still a system designed, and operated, by humans, which means it's not perfect.

Our Special Guests for tonight's show are Melissa Maestas, Angela Patterson, Jennifer and Scott Berry, along with Suzanne Shell, who is the Founder & Director of the American Family Advocacy Center located in Colorado Springs, CO.

Lamont Banks, Cliff Stewart, and Lisa Stewart of the Colorado exoneration firm A Just Cause discuss what happens when the wheels of justice trample unbridled over the rights of innocent Americans.   Although the American system of justice is the most-respected worldwide, it is still a system designed, and operated, by humans, which means it's not perfect. Lamont, Cliff and Lisa will highlight ongoing struggles against "the system" and what happens when justice miscarries against our American citizens. Our Special Guests for tonight's show is Melissa Maestas, Angela Patterson, Jennifer and Scott Berry, along with Suzanne Shell, who is the Founder & Director of the American Family Advocacy Center located in Colorado Springs, CO. They will all be sharing stories about the abuse identified within the Department of Human Services (DHS). A Just Cause is currently campaigning for "FreeTheIRP6," who's wrongly imprisoned in Florence, CO for a crime they didn't commit.
