Podcasts about social programs

Guest BioAlexander Souri is the founder and executive director of Relief Riders International, an organization he launched in 2004 to combine adventure travel with meaningful humanitarian work. Through Relief Riders, Alexander designs and leads horseback-based missions that deliver medical care, educational programs, and community support to remote villages where access to services is limited. The organization brings together travelers, volunteers, and local partners to create journeys that provide both cultural immersion and tangible aid to underserved communities.Before founding Relief Riders International, Alexander worked as a producer in theater, film, and large-scale special events. His career included involvement in major productions such as The Matrix, X-Men, End of Days, and Back to the Future: The Ride, along with directing commercial and industrial film projects internationally, including work in Beijing. His background in storytelling, logistics, and production now informs the way he organizes complex humanitarian expeditions in remote environments.Born in New York City to a French mother and an Indian father, Alexander grew up with a deeply international perspective. He attended boarding school in the foothills of the Himalayas in India and later studied at an international high school in Sophia Antipolis in southern France before graduating from Simon's Rock of Bard College in Massachusetts. These cross-cultural experiences helped shape his worldview and inspired the mission behind Relief Riders International—creating opportunities for travelers to experience adventure while contributing to positive change in communities around the world.Show SummaryIn this episode of the Big World Made Small Adventure Travel Podcast, host Jason Elkins speaks with Alexander Souri, the founder of Relief Riders International. Alexander shares the story of how his career shifted from film and theater production into humanitarian work after a personal turning point led him to seek a more meaningful path. What began as a search for purpose eventually grew into an organization that delivers aid to remote communities through horseback-based relief missions.Alexander reflects on his internationally shaped upbringing, including formative years spent in Afghanistan, India, and France. These experiences helped shape his cultural identity and gave him a broader understanding of the world at an early age. The conversation explores how these influences, along with the challenges of navigating family expectations and career transitions, ultimately guided him toward creating a mission-driven organization.Jason and Alexander also discuss the unique model behind Relief Riders International, where adventure travel meets humanitarian service. By traveling on horseback into isolated areas of India, Turkey & Ecuador, teams are able to bring medical camps, educational support, and other critical programs to villages that often lack access to basic services. Along the way, Alexander reflects on lessons about burnout, resilience, family relationships, and how travel and exploration often become powerful catalysts for personal growth and self-discovery.

Imagine a blueprint so ambitious it aims to reshape America's government from the ground up. That's Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's comprehensive plan, as detailed in its 900-page Mandate for Leadership, to dismantle what it calls the administrative state and restore family-centered policies on day one of a conservative presidency.[9]Launched before the 2024 election, the project distanced itself from candidate Trump, but his second term has brought striking alignments. According to the Wall Street Journal, more than half of Trump's early executive orders on immigration and DEI match Project 2025 recommendations, with key architects now in his administration.[1] The Center for Progressive Reform's February 2026 tracker reveals the administration has initiated or completed 53 percent of its domestic agenda—283 of 532 actions across 20 agencies.[3]Core goals shine through concrete proposals. Project 2025 urges redefining the Department of Health and Human Services as the Department of Life, rejecting abortion as healthcare and directing the FDA to revoke mifepristone approval while tasking the DOJ with prosecuting violators, even in miscarriages.[2] In education, it calls for dismantling the Department of Education to boost school choice, privatizing student loans—which the League of United Latin American Citizens warns would hike costs and widen economic gaps—and eliminating Head Start for 833,000 low-income kids.[2][4]Immigration reforms propose mass deportations, shifting immigrant children from HHS welfare to DHS enforcement, ending birthright citizenship, and deploying military for border ops, per the ACLU's analysis.[5] Labor faces attacks too: ending card-check unions, repealing Davis-Bacon wages, and defunding overtime for 4.3 million workers, as Democracy Forward outlines.[4][7]Experts like the NAACP Legal Defense Fund highlight civil rights rollbacks, from surveilling protesters to censoring classroom discussions on race and gender.[8] Proponents frame it as defending sovereignty; critics, including LULAC, see state-level tests in Texas paving an authoritarian path.[2]These threads weave a vision of centralized presidential power, slashing agencies like Homeland Security and privatizing Medicare via vouchers.[6] As midterms loom, watch congressional battles over unions and grants—pivotal decision points ahead.Thanks for tuning in, listeners.

Imagine a blueprint so ambitious it aims to reshape America's government from the ground up. That's Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's 900-page Mandate for Leadership, released in 2023 as a roadmap for conservative governance. According to the project's own document, its four pillars are to restore the family as America's centerpiece, dismantle the administrative state, defend sovereignty and borders, and secure individual rights.[13]Fast forward to early 2026: one year into the Trump administration, trackers report stunning progress. The Center for Progressive Reform notes 53 percent of its 532 domestic executive actions across 20 agencies are initiated or complete, with 283 in motion.[5] Reproductive Freedom for All counts 51 percent implemented, including 23 of 57 tracked actions on reproductive rights, like rescinding abortion access for unaccompanied immigrant youth by routing them to restrictive Texas facilities.[1][12]Key proposals target federal agencies head-on. Project 2025 calls for eliminating civil service protections, replacing thousands of career staff with loyal political appointees, as outlined in its summary by AFSC.[2] It urges dismantling the Department of Education to boost school choice, axing Head Start for 833,000 low-income kids, and ending overtime protections for 4.3 million workers.[2][4] Health reforms propose repealing Medicare's $35 insulin cap and $2,000 out-of-pocket drug limit, plus a lifetime Medicaid cap—possibly 36 months.[2] On immigration, it advocates mass deportations, ending birthright citizenship, using military for border arrests, and shifting immigrant children from Health and Human Services to Homeland Security.[3][9]Figures like Russell Vought, now OMB Director and a co-author, enforce these shifts, while Stephen Miller crafts immigration crackdowns.[1][9] Critics, including the ACLU, warn of rolling back LGBTQ+ protections and censoring classroom discussions on race and gender.[9] Democracy Forward highlights cuts to food aid for 40 million, exacerbating daily hardships.[4]These changes illustrate Project 2025's scope: centralizing power, prioritizing executive control over bureaucracy. Proponents see renewal; experts like those at the Center for Progressive Reform foresee authoritarian risks to workers, environment, and rights.[5]Looking ahead, with three years left, midterm elections and court battles loom as pivotal decision points.

The True Cost of Trump's Big Beautiful Bill on Family BusinessIn this episode of Fearless Family Business, Adam critically examines a recent piece of legislation—referred to as Donald Trump's 'One Big, Beautiful Bill'—that entails multi-trillion dollar tax cuts, program cuts, and spending increases. Adam argues that while some may benefit financially in the short term, the bill has dire long-term implications for family businesses and society as a whole. Key points include the exacerbation of the humanitarian crisis through increased immigration enforcement, the enlargement of the federal deficit, and the widening wealth gap. Adam advocates for investment in education, healthcare, and inclusion as essential pathways for sustainable economic prosperity and value creation. The episode underscores the need for family businesses to focus on innovation and long-term legacy rather than short-term gains.00:00 Introduction: The Big Beautiful Bill00:19 Why I Oppose the Bill01:46 Overview of the Legislation03:51 Impact on Social Programs and Defense Spending06:44 Humanitarian Crisis and Immigration Enforcement10:35 Deficit and Fiscal Responsibility22:06 Wealth Gap and Value Creation26:38 Conclusion: A Call to Action for Family Businesses

A new episode of Mathematica's On the Evidence podcast explores the idea that a more comprehensive approach to evaluation, including study of a program's design and implementation, maximizes a program's chances of success. The episode draws from a convening in January at Mathematica's D.C. office at which experts from the federal government, philanthropy, academia, and research organizations discussed insights from the Oxford Handbook on Program Design and Implementation Evaluation, edited by Mathematica's Anu Rangarajan. The episode features Rangarajan as well as seven other speakers who expand upon the idea that a more comprehensive approach to evaluation could provide more useful information about whether a program is working, and if not, how it could be tweaked to work. The following speakers also appear in the episode: - Michael Woolcock, lead social scientist, Development Research Group, World Bank - Paul Decker, president and chief executive officer, Mathematica - Emilie Bagby, director, international education, Mathematica - Alix Zwane, chief executive officer, Global Innovation Fund - Melissa Chiappetta, senior education advisor, Latin America and the Caribbean, U.S. Agency for International Development - Douglas J. Besharov, professor, University of Maryland School of Public Policy - Michelle Sager, managing director for strategic issues, U.S. Government Accountability Office A transcript of the episode is available at https://mathematica.org/blogs/improving-the-impact-of-social-programs-through-better-evaluation Learn more about Mathematica Global, the new name and identity of Mathematica's international unit: https://www.mathematica.org/blogs/mathematica-global-brings-hindsight-insight-and-foresight Watch the full video recording from the January convening about improving the impact of social programs through a comprehensive approach to design and evaluation: https://www.mathematica.org/events/improving-the-impact-of-social-programs-through-a-comprehensive-approach-to-design-and-evaluation Listen to a previous episode of Mathematica's On the Evidence podcast that features two of the speakers from the January event, Emilie Bagby and Melissa Chiappetta, discussing how the U.S. Agency for International Development and the International Rescue Committee are building on an evidence review from Mathematica to help local education leaders implement effective programs and policies in northern Central America that will reduce local violence and crime: https://www.mathematica.org/blogs/developing-education-programs-to-prevent-violence-and-crime-in-latin-america-and-the-caribbean

On today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss the so-called “debt ceiling” government borrowing limit. As the countdown begins to a default, right wing politicians are using the situation as leverage and demanding huge cuts to some of the most essential social programs, including Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Will these crucial safety net programs survive? Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.
