I wanted to make a difference.”- Kay Phillips  “If you're going to be a social worker, you need a therapist. I see one regularly, and it helps keep me grounded and focused. Self-care is critical for longevity in this work.”- Jennifer Gamble  “When a child feels safe enough to trust me, to tell me something they've never told anyone before, that's what keeps me going. It's the most rewarding feeling.” – Scott Steele    Resources:   National Children's Alliance Children's Advocacy Center's Staffing and Salary Survey – May 2022 Report [Report]  Safe Babies Court - SCIMHA [Website]    Host:   Christina Rouse, MSW  Program Manager, CAC Development  Southern Regional CAC    Project Manager:  Lauren Tanner, MSEd  Program Manager, Communications & Instructional Design  Southern Regional CAC    Want to hear more? Subscribe to The SRCAC Exchange to be sure you don't miss an episode!   Like what you hear? Show your support by leaving a rating and review for The SRCAC Exchange podcast.     Connect with us by:  Visiting our website  Signing up for our emails  Following us on Facebook & LinkedIn  Contacting us  Connect with your Chapter  Midwest Region Chapters  Northeast Region Chapters  Southern Region Chapters  Western Region Chapters  Connect to your Regional CAC  National Children's Advocacy Center  Peachtree Sound    Sponsor:  Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention    Resources:  CE-CERT Training [Training]  Reset.

Jen Psaki is joined by Stacey Abrams to discuss Kamala Harris' increasingly powerful attacks on Donald Trump about "the enemy within." Next, Jen reflects on Harris' speech in Erie, Pennsylvania where the Vice President played clips of Trump's own words. Jen explains why we should believe Trump when he says what he is going to do in a potential second term. Former Rep. Joe Walsh and political columnist Dana Milbank join the show to discuss the state of the race and the urgency that Harris faces to show voters just how dangerous Trump is.

Doug Elliott is a naturalist, herbalist, storyteller, musician, author, illustrator and something of a living legend in Rutherford County in Western North Carolina. After a story about deciphering the secret language of trout, we open on Doug's early career as a 1970's traveling forager. Now, no Doug Elliott conversation would be right without a 101 on groundhog-ology ranging from how to make groundhog shoelaces to understanding the medicinal properties of groundhog grease. The natural next step from groundhogs is opossums, Doug recounts the time he befriended an eccentric Alabama mayor who happened to be the president of the Possum Growers & Breeders Association of America. From there its on to folkways & more encounters with the natural world: doctoring a wounded hunting dog with strips of bark; a life lesson learned from a spruce grouse; eating poison ivy; folk names for regional plants & birds; and the inspiration for his latest book about bees.  Purchase Doug's books at Dougelliott.com Music by Doug Elliott"Oh Groundhog"Written & Performed by Doug Elliott"West Virginia"Written & Performed by Doug Elliott"Aint No Bugs on Me"Written & Performed by Doug Elliott"Wonderful to be be Alive"Written & Performed by Doug ElliottSupport Our Numinous Nature on Patreon.Follow Our Numinous Nature & my naturalist illustrations on InstagramCheck out my shop of shirts, prints, and books featuring my artContact: herbaceoushuman@gmail.com

Wes Clark reads a telling line in a police report about how Rutherford County's juvenile justice system really works. He and his law partner Mark Downton realize they have a massive class action on their hands. From Serial Productions and The New York Times in partnership with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of Rutherford County” is reported and hosted by Meribah Knight, a Peabody-award winning reporter based in the South.

A police officer in Rutherford County, Tenn., sees a video of little kids fighting, and decides to investigate. This leads to the arrest of 11 kids for watching the fight. The arrests do not go smoothly. From Serial Productions and The New York Times in partnership with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of Rutherford County” is reported and hosted by Meribah Knight, a Peabody-award winning reporter based in the South.

A young lawyer named Wes Clark can't get the Rutherford County juvenile court to let his clients out of detention — even when the law says they shouldn't have been held in the first place. He's frustrated and demoralized, until he makes a friend. From Serial Productions and The New York Times in partnership with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of Rutherford County” is reported and hosted by Meribah Knight, a Peabody-award winning reporter based in the South.

In April 2016, 11 Black schoolchildren, some as young as 8 years old, were arrested in Rutherford County, Tenn. The reason? They didn't stop a fight between some other kids. What happened in the wake of those arrests would expose a juvenile justice system that was playing by its own rules. For years, this county had arrested and illegally jailed hundreds, maybe thousands, of children. Why was this happening – and what would it take to stop it? From Serial Productions and The New York Times, in partnership with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of Rutherford County” is hosted by Meribah Knight, a Peabody Award-winning reporter based in the South. The full four-part series is out now.
