For example, changing the requirements for the amount a space a child is suppose to have. Allowing more children to share rooms, will keep fewer children in emergency shelters. This solution would also allow foster parents to take siblings, instead of separating them because of the lack of space. Another, solution would be increasing the stipend given to the foster parents. This would encourage foster parents because children are not cheap to take care of.…
Releasing patient information is not only unethical, but also against the law. I could mention meeting Jack Ryan, but there is no need to elaborate. I would state that I am not allowed to discuss patients or any patient information. The significant other should understand and respect the decision to not discuss. Violating HIPAA results in steep consequences.…
Create Change Esther Dyson once said, “Change Means That What Was Before Wasn’t Perfect People Want Things To Be Better”. Even if one person creates changes in his or her society at a global, national, or community level in a positive way, will make this world a better place. Each individual can create changes in his or her society, unless he/she feels that it is important to society, that an action must be needed and the action that they going to propose in order for changes to happen. The changes that I want it to happen are; to have free schooling for students from kindergarten to twelve grade all over the world, along with women’s right to an education, offer free health care and helping homeless…
Question One Emergency management has changed significantly after 9/11. Major changes to disaster relief had occurred during the 1950s and 60s by including intentional man-made disasters in emergency management in planning. Although there are several instances of terroristic behavior and bombings, these disasters never occurred at the magnitude of the 9/11 attacks. This led to administrators becoming more engaged with the planning process and being more proactive in civil defense systems. Furthermore, following the 9/11 attacks, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was established in attempt to prevent future terrorist attacks and to adequately plan for an emergency situation.…
The responsibility of providing sufficient funds can no longer be thrown upon the federal government as well as the responsibility to provide aid to say hypothetically the Carolinas cannot be thrown upon the people not affected by the disaster, it is simply not just. FEMA and USAID can no longer be the safety net for states to fall back on in the case of a small or big disastrous occurrence. Focusing on prevention and education is a strong argument, but establishing a concrete movement of change that will take stress off the already laboured funds behind the scenes will be more impactful as a whole (Mayer). Enforcing education and improving the disaster prone areas preparation period would be beneficial, but the Five Principles of Reform brings to the table the intense change this…
Rape victims are still silenced by the system, they are degraded, humiliated and not taken seriously. Many men and women are afraid to report rape because they are afraid of being disregarded. If changed, the crime of rape might be lessened, because it is my belief that rapists trust that the government’s patriarchal system is on their side, protecting them. Even if all rape cases were taken seriously and actions were taken against rapists, the crime would still occur, as all crimes do, but it might be a safer place for victims, if they knew they had the government fully on their…
There are many ethical dilemmas in our world that I wish I had the ability to change. In order to see a major impact in our society we first have to start by fixing the dilemmas around us. One of the biggest concerns in my community currently is homelessness. I see people everyday on the streets being dehumanized and disregarded by the people around them. This is the most important problem I would like to solve.…
I would propose changes in the Fourth Amendment. The changes will be to protect from unreasonable searches and seizures on the inside and outside of the border. The reason is that there were thousands of cases where Homeland Security Agents would seize and search mobile devices right outside the border. Because the Fourth Amendment only protects people inside the border, the agents were free to search, copy, and record any information from the devices without explanation. If the government allows this to continue it will lose trust in the public.…
You are being watched… What if every word you spoke was recorded? Would you still say some of the things you say? Domestic surveillance is the topic, it is represented as a good thing because it helps keep the government and people in the world accountable for all of their actions through technology. Domestic surveillance is helpful to prevent terrorist attacks and other bad things from happening because it keeps people accountable for their actions and words.…
Sex crimes should be properly reported, investigated, accounted for, and properly handled in all police departments. A prevalent issues within a number of police departments all over the nation is the undercounting of reported rapes. Several departments have been known to substantially undercount rapes that were reported by victims creating “paper” reductions in crime. Some law enforcement need to trust victims more, make sure they are safe after reporting their incident, and provide all the resources that are available to assist victims during their times of distress. Perhaps training on sex crimes and how they should be properly handled should be implemented and required for all officers and all police departments to…
Changing our justice system into something that is more beneficial would be a more proper solution. Although some people may argue that illegal immigration is the biggest issue facing our…
An issue that we have within our community and schools would be gang violence. Gang violence is starting to become a big issue in our community. Gang violence is leading to massive shootings and wars between gangs. This violence is taking away the lives of babies, teens, pregnant moms, and even loved ones. A way that I could help resolve this problem in the community to lower the rate of gang violence would be by starting a program that would help teens prevent falling into the chains of gang violence.…
Now, just like a task force would, people need to educate themselves. Learn the signs of a hate crime and how to stop one from happening. Make a plan for on what a person would do if they saw a gay hate crime happening. If someone else hasn't already done it, a person will need to call 911. If people don't see the severity of gay hate crimes, google gay hate crime victims and look at the damage; this is another part of educating the people.…
The Thoughts I would want my fellow Americans to have is Stopping the situation with hunger in America. There’s all types of Hunger across America, let me give you some types of hunger such as ‘’Hunger and Poverty’’, for example hunger and poverty go hand in hand, but poverty is not the utmost determinant of the food industry. ‘’Child Hunger’’, Child hunger is exceptionally devastating to…
(remember to be unique!): Most people are complacent with the actions our county takes, and while they are steps forwards I really think we can do more. Main Topic: While having discussions about what needs to be done is a great first step, I get increasingly frustrated when that’s where things end. Supporting Point:…
