States’ Juvenile Justice Codes
Most states’ juvenile justice codes are similar. However, there are some differences in legal requirements and sentencing for persons under the age of 18. For example, a state’s Three Strikes law may or may not take into account felonies committed while still a juvenile. Other states may require psychological evaluations prior to sentencing. Often the services that are offered to an offending juvenile depend on the city’s, county’s, or state’s resources (which include money). In this Discussion, you become familiar with your state’s juvenile justice code and apply specific rules and regulations to a specific case study.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the selected pages in Chapter 13 in Introduction to Forensic Psychology. Pay attention to the history and role of the Juvenile Court.
Consider the process of juvenile assessment engaged in by the forensic psychology professional.
Review Chapter 7 in Introduction to Forensic Psychology. Consider the definition of juvenile delinquency and the nature and extent of juvenile offending.
Review Chapter 13 in Introduction to Forensic Psychology and consider the approaches to rehabilitating juvenile criminals.
Review this week’s case study.
Do an Internet search for your state’s juvenile justice code. (Note: It may be helpful to search first for the justice code of your state. Then within that code, search more specifically for “Juvenile.”)
Review your state’s juvenile justice code and find out how it might handle the alleged perpetrator in the case study.
Identify two specific rules or regulations from your state’s juvenile justice code that would address the situation in the case study. (Examples might include the age limits in your state for transfer to adult court, how your state’s juvenile justice code handles questioned competency to stand trial, who can request an evaluation of competency to stand trial for a juvenile, the limits of incarceration of a juvenile, etc.)
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 4 two specific rules or regulations from you state’s juvenile justice code that relate to the alleged perpetrator in the case study. Explain how the rules or regulations relate to and would address the situation in the case study.

/in /by adminAssignment: Case Study #3OverviewIt can be hard to know how to handle a problem with a coworker or friend. That’s why the psychological concepts you’re learning in this course are so important. Understanding how the human brain works will help you master your problem solving and self and social awareness skills in your personal and professional life.And whether at work or home, you’re learning how to read the social cues of others and recommend strategies based on psychological concepts and principles.This week you’ll use your problem solving and self and social awareness skills to look beyond the opinions of others and figure out a problem’s cause so you can help a coworker make informed decisions. Review the scenario below to get started.Case Study and QuestionsReggie works with Gloria and Lakeisha. He is a friendly older man who often talks about his plans for retirement in five years. He likes to make people laugh but often jokes about his struggles to learn new programs and technology.The company recently informed the team that there will be a compliance test on new safety policies, which employees will pass in order to keep their jobs. The company has provided materials to study as well as optional practice exams. Gloria, Lakeisha, and Reggie are having lunch in the break room, and Gloria and Lakeisha mention that they have already signed up to take the first practice test. Reggie comments about how hard it is for him to learn a different way of doing the jobs that he has already been doing for years, joking that “you can’t teach an old man new tricks.†However, later in the day, he stops by Gloria’s desk to find out how she is preparing for the test and asks for advice. Given that they have a month until the compliance test, Gloria is confident that she can help Reggie prepare. Using your problem solving and self and social awareness skills and the information that you learned in Chapter 7 of the webtext about brain plasticity and mindset, answer the questions below:1.Define mindset and describe what kind of mindset Reggie needs to embrace to be successful.2. What is brain plasticity?3. In Chapter 4, you learned about memory and how to effectively study. Using Chapter 4 in the webtext, what two specific strategies should Gloria suggest to Reggie so that he will be prepared for the compliance test? Why will these two strategies work?4. If Reggie were your coworker, what important aspects of the situation would you want to keep in mind when offering advice and strategies to him? Why do you think this is important?please use attached template

/in /by adminYou are the newly hired project manager of a federally qualified community health center (FQCHC). Your position is grant-funded for a year but can be extended an additional year if you are successful in securing new resources for a proposal designed to address the most pressing health problem of the community served by this FQCHC. Thus, the most important task before you now is the preparation of a proposal to fund the grant.
You have been given two months to prepare the proposal for presentation to the FQCHC Board of Directors. The CEO of the leading healthcare delivery system serving the FQCHC is also a board member and is committed to providing the funding for continued employment if the proposal is approved. The CEO has also offered the services of the budget office to work with you in developing the costs associated with the proposal. It is obvious that the CEO would like to have you as a member of the team and has hinted that, beyond grant funding, a permanent position may be created. This CEO is impressed with your work to date and wants you to succeed. Don’t disappoint!
Hint: You might want to begin by using one of the government databases to learn more about FQCHCs, the populations they serve, and their most pressing health problems. This type of research can provide you with the foundation for creating the fictional FQCHC and lay the basis for the proposal you need to write. Don’t forget to give the FQCHC a name!
This assignment should include:
Introduce the presentation with an executive summary where you include:
Why you are presenting this proposal
The population you’ve selected
The process
Cost
Overarching conclusion
Append a five- or six-slide PowerPoint or other graphic presentation in which you show the process used to develop the proposal. For example, you might have accessed one or more national databases and then conducted a local focus group.
This process is customarily included in the graphic or PowerPoint presentation and you will also discuss it within the proposal paper.
Consider using the following steps to develop your PowerPoint  or graphic
The reason for the proposal
How you selected the most pressing health problem (survey’s focus groups)
The intervention or interventions you are recommending
Expected outcomes and estimated timeframe to achieve expected outcome or outcomes
Expected cost (because you are not working with finance in this course, you will want to simply state within budget).
Questions
Slides or graphics should be supported by narratives that should be included in the ten pages of the proposal paper.

Make sure you provide appropriate references and utilize APA style. To obtain full credit, students must follow the above requirements. Student post is attached below. Two references required. Florida Prescriptive Authority RequirementsAfter twenty years of pushing for arguments for the prescriptive law, the Barbara Lumpkin Act was among the bills passed in 2016. Its implementation in 2017 allows Physician Assistants (PAs) and Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) to prescribe controlled substances under the supervision and specific protocol. The argument for Florida Prescriptive Authority RequirementsAllowing APRNs and APs offers an array of benefits to the healthcare system. It leads to improved care delivery, increased access to care, improved care delivery, and reduced wait times. This is because APRNs do not have to collaborate with others and wait for supervision to provide a prescription to the patient (Reynolds et al., 2021). There are unnecessary delays when providing medications to patients as the collaborating and supervisory physicians may be absent in the practice setting. Although the bill allows for controlled substances, it will enable collaboration with other professionals, which only increases the wait time for patients. Additionally, there is also a reduction in patient costs. APRNs help treat chronic and acute pain patients and patients who need opioids, which is a major problem in Florida and the united states as a whole (Dydyk et al., 2021).The argument against Florida Prescriptive Authority RequirementsAlthough the Barbara Lumpkin Act helped eliminate some barriers to controlled substance prescription, some still limit the exercise. All prescriptions for schedule II are limited to a seven-day rule (Weissing, 2019). With this rule, neither APs nor APRNs can offer prescriptions to patients beyond seven days. The bill allows APRNs with certain education qualifications to prescribe substance medications. However, only psychiatrists can prescribe for patients under the age of eighteen. With this restriction, APRNs cannot offer any drugs to patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Lifting restrictions and allowing full practice authority eliminates several barriers and gives APRNs a great sense of autonomy, affirming their knowledge and skills. Eliminating the quantity restrictions and unnecessary protocol will allow APRNs to deliver services more effectively.

1. The Teamsters Union is scheduled to enter into negotiations over a new contract with The Statton Canning Company. They have gathered a great deal of information about the rank and file preferences, the local labor costs, and national trends. What five essential things should they now determine by taking all this information into consideration? 2. During the fall of 2012, public school teachers in Chicago went out on strike over, among other things, salary and pay systems, performance reviews based on standardized test scores, and job protection for laid off teachers. Some people argued that the strike was evidence that the teachers’ union was too powerful. Where does the teachers’ bargaining power stem from? What factors place a “check” on teachers’ bargaining power? 3. Describe the seven tests of just cause. How do these tests protect the rights of employees? 4. One of the key roles of an arbitrator is to interpret the language of a contract, even when that language is unclear or ambiguous. Describe the rules that arbitrators apply to try to fairly interpret the contract. 5. A recent certification election at Lutz Industries, a large manufacturing company, ended with the union winning representation rights. Management and the union are now preparing for their first contract bargaining sessions. Assume that you are the chief negotiator for the management team. Describe your goals for protecting management rights at Lutz Industries. 6. In 2007-2008, more than 12,000 members of the Writers Guild of America went out on strike after contract negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) came to impasse. The strike started in November, 2007 and concluded in February, 2008 and, by some estimates, cost the industry around $2 billion. Given the expense of the strike to the industry and lost income to the writers, what other alternatives might the writers have considered in their quest to pressure the AMPTP to make concessions? Why do you think the Writers Guild decided to strike instead of pursuing these less costly alternatives? 7. Describe the arguments for and against the use of permanent strike replacements in economic strikes. 8. Describe the steps that management and the union take to prepare for and ultimately reach a collective bargaining agreement. 9. Describe how a union organizing drive can legally be initiated. 10. Explain the process that employees must go through in order to get the NLRB to conduct a representation election.

/in /by adminA comprehensive curriculum map is a valuable tool for teachers. Mapping curriculum allows instructors to review the aligned curriculum and continue to develop learning experiences that meet the needs of a diverse student population. Additionally, connecting learning across disciplines increases the relevance of the content and helps students build strong frameworks for past, present, and future learning.For this benchmark, continue to build and revise your curriculum map to include cross-curricular, differentiation, and cultural diversity components based on current best practices.The cross-curricular component should include:Three disciplines or curricular areas other than your own.The cross-curricular connections must be clearly articulated.Resources, as appropriate.The differentiation component should include for each unit:Strategies that reflect best practices for differentiating access to the content.Suggested adjustments to the instructional strategies and materials, assessments, and the learning environment.Extension and remedial activities.Note: Differentiation strategies should vary for each unit. Keep in mind the needs of students with disabilities, English language learners, high-achieving, and gifted students.The cultural diversity component should include for each unit:Culturally responsive pedagogical practices.Resources such as appropriate literature, videos, technology, etc.Activities that reflect culturally inclusive practices.Note: Cultural diversity can be integrated into various areas of the curriculum map but should be explicitly pointed out.This map should be a comprehensive visual depiction of the content for an 18-week period. Use the feedback you received in the Topic 4 field experience to make any additional changes to your map.In 250-500 words reflect on the following:How do the cross-curricular components make learning meaningful and engaging for students?How did you develop your curriculum map to include culturally diverse and differentiated curriculum?How can technology enhance cross-curricular and cultural components?How does your curriculum map align with the organizational goals and standards in a way that improves student achievement?How have you used current best practices to build and revise your curriculum map?Support your explanation with 2-3 scholarly resources.While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
