Dr. Brian Miller, the developer of the CE-CERT model, and Karen Hangartner, Director of Professional Services with the National Children's Advocacy Center, share their insights on how this concept is influencing the CAC community.

Today, Christina Rouse engages with experts Dr. Brian Miller, developer of the CE-CERT (Components for Enhancing Career Wellbeing and Reducing Trauma) model, and Karen Hangartner, Director of Professional Services at the National Children's Advocacy Center. Together, they explore how the narratives professionals create about their work can either sustain or hinder their passion and commitment over time. They emphasize how the conscious narrative skill, one of the five domains of the CE-CERT model, helps professionals stay connected to their purpose and avoid burnout despite the challenges of working in high-trauma environments.  Through personal reflections and research, the episode encourages CAC professionals to embrace their work by finding joy in even the difficult moments, using tools like conscious narrative practices to frame their experiences positively. It discusses how supportive supervision and organizational culture play crucial roles in helping individuals maintain career-sustaining narratives, which ultimately foster resilience.

White House Boys , Florida School For Boyshe Florida School for Boys, also known as the Arthur G. Dozier School for Boys (AGDS), was a reform school operated by the state of Florida in the panhandle town of Marianna from January 1, 1900, to June 30, 2011.[1][2] A second campus was opened in the town of Okeechobee in 1955. For a time, it was the largest juvenile reform institution in the United States.[3]Throughout its 111-year history, the school gained a reputation for abuse, beatings, rapes, torture, and even murder of students by staff. Despite periodic investigations, changes of leadership, and promises to improve, the allegations of cruelty and abuse continued.After the school failed a state inspection in 2009, the governor ordered a full investigation. Many of the historic and recent allegations of abuse and violence were confirmed by separate investigations by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in 2010, and by the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice in 2011.[4] State authorities closed the school permanently in June 2011. At the time of its closure, it was a part of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice.[5]Because of questions about the number of deaths at the school and a high number of unmarked graves, the state authorized a forensic anthropology survey by University of South Florida in 2012. They identified 55 burials on the grounds, most outside the cemetery, and documented nearly 100 deaths at the school. The state said it did not have authority to allow exhumation of graves, which would permit determination of cause of death and identification of remains. (In addition it wanted to sell land on the property.) A family member of a student who died at the school in 1934, and who wanted to reinter his remains, filed suit and gained an injunction against the state's moving ahead with the sale before remains could be exhumed and identified. The state responded to the court injunction and authorized more work by a multi-disciplinary team from the University of South Florida, including exhumations. In January 2016, the USF team issued its final report, having made seven DNA matches and 14 presumptive identifications of remains. They will continue to work on identification.After passage of resolutions by both houses of the legislature, on April 26, 2017, the state held a formal ceremony to apologize personally to two dozen survivors of the school and to families of other victims. In 2018, bills were being considered to provide some compensation to victims and their descendants, possibly as scholarships for children.In 2019, during preliminary survey work for a pollution clean-up, a further 27 suspected graves were identified by ground penetrating radar. Many people, including former detainees, believe that over 100 bodies were buried on the schools grounds, and that further investigating should be done until all the remains have been identified and cared for.

Commissioner Vicki Reed joins Dr. Sandie Morgan to discuss the intersection of juvenile justice and child welfare, highlighting the importance of collaboration, care, and community in supporting vulnerable youth and preventing their exploitation. Vicki Reed Vicki Reed has dedicated her career to child welfare and juvenile justice, with over two decades of experience working with system-involved youth. She holds a degree in law enforcement and a master's in criminal justice, and has been a strong advocate for vulnerable children in both public and private sectors. Vicki has served as a juvenile probation officer, the director of a youth-serving agency, and has helped shape state-level training for child welfare workers in Kentucky. Beyond her advocacy and service as Juvenile Justice Commissioner of Kentucky, she is also an accomplished author. In her previous appearance on this podcast (episode 246), Vicki discussed her novel The Car Thief. In this episode, she shares insights from her latest novel, Sleight of Hand, which also draws from her extensive experience working with youth. Key Points Vicki Reed shares how an unexpected opportunity and sense of calling led her to come out of retirement to serve as Kentucky's Juvenile Justice Commissioner. She emphasizes the critical difference between juvenile justice and adult corrections, noting that punitive approaches fail with youth and that rehabilitation, mental health support, education, and pro-social activities are far more effective. The high cost of long-term incarceration underscores the need for early intervention and supportive programming for at-risk youth. Reed discusses how negative placement experiences in foster care can reinforce harmful behaviors, while positive, stable placements with appropriate support can change life trajectories. Her novels, The Car Thief and Sleight of Hand, serve as creative tools to educate readers about the juvenile justice and child welfare systems, illustrating how caring adults make a significant difference in a young person's life. The character of Alex in Sleight of Hand, who experiences 64 placements, highlights the systemic issues facing youth in foster care and the importance of wraparound services. Vicki introduces the concept of “automatic adult responses” and stresses the value of reframing interactions with youth, drawing on insights from expert Charlie Applestein and his approach from No Such Thing as a Bad Kid. Pro-social activities, such as music lessons, art therapy, or simple childhood experiences like flying a kite, play a key role in building competencies and self-worth for vulnerable youth. Collaboration across systems—child welfare, juvenile justice, and mental health—is vital, as these sectors often serve the same youth but in siloed ways. Reed advocates for dual status teams like those in Indiana, which require collaborative planning for youth involved in both child welfare and juvenile justice systems. Children in congregate care (group homes or residential placements) are at higher risk for exploitation, making family-based care the preferred model whenever possible. Reed calls for greater community engagement, suggesting ways individuals can support youth through fostering, volunteering as court advocates (CASA), or contributing to foster care organizations.

TRIGGER WARNING: This conversation includes discussion about sexual violence, rape, medical examinations after assault, sex, and sexuality. Unfortunately most listeners will have had some interaction with sexual trauma. We hope this conversation helps you move through difficult feelings and find new understanding of what it can mean to heal and/or be liberated from sexual trauma, and empowers you to define what justice means for you in such situations. However we understand the topic of sexual violence is difficult to engage in. Please take care of you and know this is a resource if needed!------------------This conversation is maybe best described as a journey to better understanding sexual liberation and justice for survivors of sexual violence and their loved ones. In this deep and transformative episode of Impostrix Podcast, host Whitney Knox Lee is joined by Leah Forney, an advocate, consultant, and influential speaker who specializes in sexual health and assault prevention within BIPOC communities. One of her specialties is addressing the need for cultural sensitivity in sexual violence response. As they discuss healing from sexual trauma, Whitney and Leah reflect on their personal experiences seeking justice after surviving sexual violence. And Leah shares her insights on how black women are uniquely affected by such trauma. In this episode, we also touch on the idea of "purity culture" and the stigmatization of menstrual health. We share cultural myths that we grew up with regarding the use of tampons and the miseducation of young girls regarding how to care for their changing bodies. Important themes include reparenting one's self, redefining justice, and finding sexual liberation. Key takeaways revolve around the significance of internal healing rather than external punishment, and the role of cultural and historical nuances in the healing journey. They also touch on societal expectations, faith, and the importance of creating safe spaces for survivors.

Back in 2011, I took my first business class in college. I had heard about this professor who had a really innovative way of teaching inside of the business school at ColumbiaAfter taking that class, I ended up having quite a few classes with him and he ended up becoming my Advisor for a little while. It was in 2012 during my junior where I took my first entrepreneurial class with him, created my first business plan and learned that Monopoly actually could be tied back to business (my family strongly dislikes playing with me now). Some of my favorite classes ever were taught by today's guest and I consider him my first mentor in the business world. The fact that we are sitting together now on my podcast over a decade later, it feels very surreal and I'm grateful. My guest today is Dr. Sean Siebert. Dr. Siebert's Bio:Dr. Sean Siebert's breadth of knowledge and experience, combined with his story-telling ability, make him a much-sought-after speaker, panelist, educator, and consultant. His messages resonate with audiences, leaving them both motivated and committed to embrace a future of endless possibilities. Currently, Siebert has authored the award-winning books, Fighting The Good Fight and Conversations on Grief.Additionally, Siebert serves as a contracted subject-matter-expert (SME) for the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR). His work in the industries of education; workforce development; entrepreneurship; and economic development continues to be recognized across the United States and around the world. Dr. Siebert has been honored by the Missouri Association of School Administrators (MASA) with the prestigious Friend of Education Award for his work with school districts across the State of Missouri. Dr. Siebert was the national recipient of the National Association of Development Organizations Innovation Award, for his work that helps communities, and individuals, to combat the mental health and opioid epidemics. Siebert has also been honored as the Entrepreneur of the Year, Citizen of the Year, Faculty Member of the Year, and he was the recipient of the Exclamation Award for Excellence. Siebert has been recognized on numerous occasions by the Missouri Department of Economic Development as he was a featured keynote speaker at the Governor's Conference on Economic Development in 2015, 2016, 2018, and 2023.

We continue our series highlighting episodes that feature books that have been banned or challenged. This week, it's Walter Dean Myers' tale of a kid on trial for murder “Monster.”   In 2021, parents in Signal Mountain Middle/High School in Tennessee complained about mature language and sexual content in some 7th grade reading club selections. In response, a teacher told parents she was removing “Monster” from the reading list.  Myers reacted to the book ban by saying,”I think that most often the people wanting to censor books are well-meaning and concerned about the welfare of their children. But I suggest that children will be exposed to the world in spite of their efforts, and that exposure is best handled in a school setting. I write to establish the humanity of the children I identify as my major audience. I'm not trying to push any boundaries.”  Give a listen as a group of readers from Washington,DC discuss the book and make up your own mind.

A lot of us did some questionable things as teenagers, like drinking alcohol, doing drugs, and shoplifting. We’re likely not proud of these moments, but they happened, and we moved on. For some of us though, this normal adolescent boundary-testing can land us in the juvenile justice system, which is ripe with racism and other injustices. Nate Balis, Director of the Juvenile Justice Strategy Group at the Annie E. Casey Foundation, talks with host Maya Rupert about reframing how we think about youth crime and the need for effective solutions that actually promote community safety. This episode was made possible with support from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, an organization that develops solutions to build a brighter future for children, youth, families and communities.

The demands on IT leaders have never been greater. You're expected to be technically brilliant while also leading your teams through constant change and disruption. But what happens when your “superhero” drive to do more, learn more, and be more starts to work against you? As Michael Pompey, Chief Information and Transformation Officer for the Girl Scouts of Eastern Pennsylvania, shares in a recent podcast interview, many IT leaders fall into the trap of believing that “more is more.” They push themselves to the limit, taking on every challenge and striving for perfection. While this drive can lead to early success, it can also become a recipe for burnout and stagnation. Read the full blog post here: https://thechangearchitects.com/it-leadership-growth-mindset-with-michael-pompey/ About Michael Pompey: Michael is a seasoned technology executive with over two decades of experience driving innovation and transformation in mission-driven organizations.

Michael's career in technology began in the field of Juvenile Justice, where as a probation officer, he identified critical gaps in data management. By developing applications to track and forecast social and offender data, he demonstrated the transformative power of technology in improving case management and youth outcomes.

14-Year-Old and Father Charged in Apalachee High School Shooting that Left Four Dead

A 14-year-old student and his father appeared in a Barrow County courtroom Friday, facing serious charges in connection with a school shooting that left two students and two teachers dead at Apalachee High School earlier this week. The small community continues to mourn as details emerge about the tragic events. Colt Gray, the teenage suspect, was arraigned on four counts of felony murder in the deadly shooting. He stood shackled before Judge Currie Mingledorff, his long hair partially concealing his face during the proceeding. The judge informed Gray that while the initial charges carried the possibility of the death penalty, the maximum sentence he could face due to his age is life in prison, with or without parole. Prosecutors allege Gray used an AR-style rifle in the Wednesday morning attack, which claimed the lives of two 14-year-old students, Christian Angulo and Mason Schermerhorn, along with two teachers, math instructor Cristina Irimie, 53, and assistant football coach Richard Aspinwall, 39, who also taught math. According to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI), nine others were injured in the attack, with seven suffering gunshot wounds. All of the injured are expected to make a full recovery. Gray did not enter a plea, and his legal counsel did not request bond during the hearing. Just minutes after Colt Gray was escorted out of the courtroom, his father, Colin Gray, 54, appeared for his own arraignment. Shackled in a white and grey jumpsuit, Colin Gray was charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second-degree murder, and eight counts of cruelty to children. His charges stem from allegations that he provided the firearm used in the shooting to his son, despite being aware of the potential danger his son posed. An arrest warrant issued for Colin Gray claims he gave his son the rifle "with knowledge he was a threat to himself and others." Colin Gray, visibly emotional during the proceedings, spoke softly as he addressed the court. Like his son, he did not request bond and is being held in custody. If convicted on all counts, Colin Gray faces a maximum sentence of 180 years in prison. As the courtroom filled with family members of the victims, the pain was palpable. Some wiped away tears, while one woman clutched a doll of Disney character Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, a poignant reminder of the young lives lost. District Attorney Brad Smith, speaking to reporters outside the courthouse, confirmed that additional charges against Colt Gray are likely as more information becomes available about the victims' injuries. "When evidence comes in, and they've had a chance to heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually, we will get with them, and there will be additional charges that address the other victims," Smith said. The shooting has left the tight-knit community of Winder, Georgia, in shock. Apalachee High School is now the site of one of the deadliest school shootings in recent U.S. history, the 45th such incident this year and the worst since the Covenant School shooting in Nashville in March 2023. **History of Warnings** Law enforcement had previously investigated the Gray family in May 2023 after receiving reports of online threats linked to Colt Gray, who was accused of posting photos of firearms and threatening a school shooting. Despite the serious nature of the allegations, the investigation was closed after authorities were unable to substantiate the claims. Colt Gray, who is currently being held at the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice, is expected to be tried as an adult under Georgia law, which mandates that juveniles between the ages of 13 and 17 charged with serious crimes be prosecuted in adult court. Meanwhile, investigators continue to comb through evidence and pursue leads, including a phone threat received by Apalachee High School just before the shooting began. According to authorities, the caller warned of shootings at five different schools, although no evidence has been found to substantiate those claims. **Gun Purchased as Holiday Gift** Two law enforcement sources close to the investigation revealed that Colin Gray admitted to buying the AR-style rifle for his son as a holiday present in December 2023. This purchase came months after the initial investigation into the school shooting threat. As the Gray family faces the consequences of their actions, the community is left grappling with the devastating loss of four beloved individuals—two students and two educators.
