Holly’s House to Receive Handmade Blankets from Christ the King Students

0

Holly’s House, a non-profit child and adult advocacy center, will attend a brief donation presentation on Wednesday, December 19, 2018 at 1:15 pm CST at Christ the King School, 3101 Bayard Park Drive, Evansville, Indiana, 47714, to accept handmade blankets made by 7th and 8th Grade Students in support of Holly’s House and the “Think First & Stay Safe” child abuse prevention program.  Holly’s House offers the “Think First & Stay Safe” personal safety and child abuse prevention program at no charge to elementary schools in five counties in Southwest Indiana.

This program utilizes the curriculum developed by Child Lures Prevention and focuses on helping children understand the lures or tricks that are used by people who might want to hurt them.  The program also focuses on bullying, internet and general safety lessons including emphasizing the importance of telling a trusted adult if they feel scared or unsafe.  Since first offering the program in the spring of 2010, over 40,000 elementary school students have been taught how to “Think First & Stay Safe.” As the demand for the program has increased, the “Think First & Stay Safe” staff has grown to include one full-time and three part-time prevention educators.

Holly Edmond, Holly’s House Executive Director, said, “This heartfelt gift shows that students want to support Holly’s House and those we serve. The “Think First & Stay Safe” program utilizes age-appropriate lesson plans to teach safety tools children may use for the rest of their lives. To receive this gift at Christ the King makes it even more meaningful.  It is wonderful to know that students who have been taught the “Think First & Stay Safe” program join Holly’s House in our commitment to preventing child abuse.”

Gov. Holcomb now accepting applications for fellowship

0

Governor Eric J. Holcomb announced today that applications will be accepted through March 31 for the 2019-2020 Governor’s Fellowship.

The Governor’s Fellowship is highly selective and provides a unique experience in Indiana state government by placing fellows in various state agencies on a rotating basis throughout the year.

“Our Governor’s Fellows are such a valuable piece to our team,” Gov. Holcomb said. “The wide range of assistance they provide over the course of their fellowship is key to serving Hoosiers in a timely and thorough manner.”

The program is open to college graduates who receive their bachelor’s degrees in either the fall 2018 or spring 2019. Fellows are paid, full-time employees who participate in the day-to-day activities of state government.

Many Governor’s Fellow participants have gone on to successful careers in both the public and private sector — with some serving at the highest levels of local, state and federal government.

The application and submission guidelines can be found online at www.in.gov/gov/fellowship.htm. To be eligible for consideration, the application and all supporting materials must be postmarked or submitted via email by March 31, 2019.

 

AG Curtis Hill continues seeking U.S. Supreme Court review of case involving Indiana abortion laws

0

Attorney General Curtis Hill today filed Indiana’s latest brief asking the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the constitutionality of an Indiana law involving abortion.

Enacted in 2016, House Bill 1337 contains two provisions at issue in the current case. One provision requires health facilities disposing of fetal remains to treat them with the same dignity accorded other human remains by either burying or cremating them. (Unlike health facilities, parents who choose to take possession of fetal remains after an abortion or miscarriage have no such requirements imposed on them.) The other provision prohibits abortion performed solely because of the disability, race or sex of the unborn child.

The Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals has held that both of these provisions violate the U.S. Constitution.

In the case of the fetal-remains provision, the Seventh Circuit panel contradicted an earlier decision in the Eighth Circuit upholding as constitutional a virtually identical law enacted in Minnesota.

“The result is that Minnesota can require burial or cremation of fetal remains while Indiana cannot,” Attorney General Hill writes in today’s filing. Only the U.S. Supreme Court, he notes, “can decide which of these positions is correct.”

While the anti-discrimination provision involves no such conflict between circuits, it raises issues of national importance that the Court should address, Attorney General Hill said.

“Other states are adopting laws similar to ours,” he said. “Internationally, there is attention focused on whether it’s ethical to abort babies because, for example, they have Down Syndrome, which is a very prevalent reason given for abortions. So we’re hoping that the significance of the issue will justify Supreme Court review.”
