Elfreich attains the highest level of credentialing from the National Association of Certified Child Forensic Interviewers (NACCFI) Credentialing Board, the Diplomate Child Forensic Interviewer (DCFI) certification.

 

(Evansville, Ind.) Holly’s House is pleased to announce that Molly Elfreich, Assistant Director and Forensic Interviewer, has attained the highest level of credentialing from the National Association of Certified Child Forensic Interviewers (NACCFI) Credentialing Board, the Diplomate Child Forensic Interviewer (DCFI) certification. The DCFI certification indicates advanced and expert level practice experience and training, existing legal and psychometric requirements.  The National Association of Certified Child Forensic Interviewers (NACCFI) is the only professional credentialing program for child forensic interviewers in the United States.  NACCFI was founded on June 16, 2006 on the principle that conducting child forensic interviews should only be performed by properly trained and credentialed practitioners in compliance with the universally accepted standards of the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA).  The NACCFI multi-tiered credentialing standards include; actual work experience in the profession, specialized evidenced based forensic interview training, evidence of good moral and ethical conduct and a commitment by the credentialed practitioner to the pursuit of continues learning and skill building in the practice of their profession. The primary mission of the NACCFI Credentialing Board is protecting the welfare and safety of the clients we serve and the public’s trust and confidence in the professional practice of child forensic interviewing.

 

Currently, Elfreich is the only person in Indiana to hold this advanced certification. 54 people hold this designation in the United States, three in Latin America, and two in Canada. Sidney Hardgrave, Holly’s House Executive Director, said, “Molly’s achievement speaks to her dedication and commitment in being the area expert in child forensic interviewing. Holly’s House, and the community, is fortunate to have such talented person available to insure that interviews are conducted in an ethical manner while preserving criminal evidence and making the child victim feel at ease.” Holly’s House interviews over 300 sexually abused children a year.

Renovations Underway on University of Evansville’s Bower-Suhrheinrich Library

0

 

Construction has begun on renovations to the Bower-Suhrheinrich Library at the University of Evansville. The University’s fundraising campaign for the library’s makeover was exceeded with a final total of $3,200,000.

The goal of the library renovation is to blend computer technology services and classical library reference and research and create a hub for students to gather, collaborate and utilize multiple technologies. The library’s interior will be transformed into a bright, open space for group study sessions and collaborative projects. There will also be spaces set aside for individual study and creative work. The building’s new features will include a large wall of windows overlooking Ridgway University Center’s East Terrace Lawn, a popular outdoor gathering place for students.

ARC Construction is the contractor for the project. Much of the major renovation work on the library is expected to be complete by October.

0

The Indiana State Police (ISP) earned the University of Southern Indiana (USI) “Internship Employer of the Year” award for 2014.  This award is presented by the University of Southern Indiana in recognition of excellence in the ISP internship program.  Over the past decade alone, more than 1,000 employers have provided internship opportunities to USI students – including businesses, non-profit organizations, and government agencies.

 

Philip Parker, Director of Career Services & Placement for the University of Southern Indiana presented the award.  Director Parker said, “Experiential education, including internships and cooperative education, are vital in preparing students for successful careers and the University demonstrates this by making the enhancement of experiential education a major component of its strategic plan.  We in USI Career Services feel it is imperative to recognize those organizations that share this vision through offering internship and cooperative education opportunities to our students.  It is always a difficult task to select the annual recipients of the awards from among the numerous employers that are so deserving of the recognition.”

Criteria utilized in selecting the award winner included overall quality of the internship experience, mentoring provided during the program, growth opportunities provided for learning and leadership and how well the employer assisted students in meeting their overall learning objectives.

The Indiana State Police (ISP) Internship Program is an observational and experiential program designed for college students who are pursuing a career in law enforcement.  This opportunity provides a learning environment based on on-the-job experience while working closely with State Troopers in all realms of law enforcement today.  Interns will gain an understanding of the daily operational demands of the Indiana State Police Trooper from both an administrative and field enforcement perspective.  The majority of the internship will be time spent in the field engaged in a ride-along program with various members of ISP.

IS IT TRUE JUNE 1, 2015

IS IT TRUE that Hamrick Towing has felt the raff of the Winnecke administration once again when he was informed last week that he no longer will be a vendor for the Water and Sewer Department?  …Mr. Hamrick was informed that he will  no longer will be repairing Water and Sewer Department Vacuum trucks?…over the last 8 years Hamricks did repair work on Water and Sewer Vacuum trucks without any issues or complaints?… we are really surprised that the Winnecke Administration has decided to let an out of town garage to repair City Water and Sewer Vacuum trucks, particularly after he assisted the City of Evansville Police and Fire Departments in help salvaging and preserving the Marvel boat at Inland Marina which led to the arrest of the alleged arsonist.

IS IT TRUE we are hearing that a couple of candidates running for elected office in the upcoming General election are doing research on how many contracts  the city  is awarding to out of town consultants, vendors or contractors?  …we can already predict the answers?  …the answer is to many?

IS IT TRUE we are hearing that the plans for the proposed downtown Hotel that was put out for bids doesn’t have drawings for extensive landscaping and the massive footing work?  …we hear that that the additional estimated costs for Hotel landscaping and footings is between $2 1/2 to $3 million dollars?

IS IT TRUE that additional costs overruns for Hotel landscaping and footings isn’t budgeted?  …we wonder how the Winnecke Administration is going to come up with the unbudgeted costs overruns for Hotel landscaping and footings?

IS IT TRUE we agree with the proposal given to the Evansville Bar Association last week concerning inappropriate dress (shorts, caps, t-shirts, flip-flops pajamas and etc.) habits for the court room?  …we feel that the Honorable Superior Court Chief Judge Richard D’Amour’s dress code proposal for the Court system is spot on?

IS IT TRUE we totally support the effort by agencies like  Evansville ARC banding together to fight for additional funding to help increase the hourly wages paid to their employees?  …the average salaries of Evansville ARC employees is about $8.25 an hour and it’s reported that the turnover staff rate is around to 50% to 60%?  …it’s time that our State Legislative delegation ban together to get additional State funding for ARC because they do an outstanding job for our community and their clients?
