[Kym Andrews-Cardoza, Community Outreach Coordinator, The Center for Violence-Free Relationships]
 
Sexual Assault Awareness Month or SAAM calls attention to the fact that sexual violence is widespread and impacts every person in this community. The goal of SAAM is to raise public awareness about sexual violence and educate communities on how to prevent it. The theme of this year’s national campaign is “Embrace Your Voice”. The campaign informs individuals on how they can use their words to stop sexual violence before it happens by promoting safety, respect, and equality.
 
Please join The Center for Violence-Free Relationships for their annual Walk a Mile in Her Shoes on Saturday, April 14, 2018. The Walk will take place at The Placerville Town Hall and will feature men wearing red high heels as they walk a mile down Placerville’s historic Main Street.
 
This year The Center will be joined by a large number of high profile men in our community who are embracing their voices and speaking out in an effort to raise awareness about sexual assault. Among the walkers are El Dorado County Supervisors, Brian Veerkamp, and  Michael Ranalli; Ed Falkenstein from the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Department; Chief Kay Iida from the Shingle Springs Tribal Police,  from the DA’s office Gary Malmquist. Green Valley Community Church's Scott Layton will join in the fun as will Sacramento attorney and El Dorado Community Foundation Past Board President, Paul Zappettini; Rogue Brotherhood members, Kevin Brown and Russ Reyes; and Marty Hackett from El Dorado County Emergency Services.  Also walking will be The Center’s Executive Director, Matt Huckabay.
 
Why men in high heels? Unfortunately, sexual assault is a gender-based crime where women are most likely the victims. Too often the victims are blamed for the assault based on what they were wearing at the time of the assault, such as high heels or short skirts. The Center promotes that men everywhere have the capacity to play an integral role in eliminating domestic violence and sexual assault by embracing their voices and speaking up about attitudes and behavior that contribute to these harmful attiutudes toward women .
 
Our words shape the world around us. Whether you speak out against locker room talk or help someone better understand these issues, your voice in powerful and necessary in this conversation.

Individuals can embrace their voices to show their support for survivors, stand up to victim blaming, shut down rape jokes, correct harmful misconceptions, promote everyday consent, and practice healthy communication with kids.
 
The Walk a Mile in Her Shoes Challenge is a great event for individuals of all ages who want to participate in a beautiful walk.  Don’t have high heels, no problem, they’ve got your size!  The event is open to the public and families are encouraged to attend together. Festivities to include a photo booth and a free lunch following the walk. This year the event will be sponsored by: SuiteAmerica and Wells Fargo Bank.

The El Dorado Union High School District (EDUHSD) is proud to have three administrators honored at this year’s regional Association of California School Administrators (ACSA) Administrator of the Year Awards Ceremony. Stephen Wehr (Superintendent), Steve Volmer (Assistant Superintendent, Student Services), and Chas Prior (Principal, El Dorado High School) were all presented with awards at the March 9th Gala event in Lincoln, CA.

Stephen Wehr was recognized as the ACSA 2018 Region Administrator of the Year through his work as Superintendent at the El Dorado Union High School District in Placerville, CA. What makes Wehr unique is that he has a breadth of professional experience. He’s been a middle and high school social science teacher, coach, athletic director, assistant principal, dean of student services, high school principal in two districts, assistant superintendent of human resources and superintendent in his 34 years. He is humble, quiet and committed to students above all else. He describes his greatest professional time was when he was assistant principal at Center High School because this was when he found ways to connect with disconnected students. He quotes William Glaser, and describes how he was able to get into the “kids quality world”. This was a different experience from all others in his career.

Dr. Marcy Guthrie, Superintendent of the Mother Lode Union School District, stated “For 34 years Stephen Wehr has been a positive, student focused educator and leader. He describes his beliefs articulately. He views, ‘Education as one of the most significant vehicles for our nation’s future. As education is where students learn how to learn, learn how to think, learn how to care for each other and the greater community. He knows that the students he taught probably do not remember all of the social science but they remember how they were treated and inspired to be learners.’ Stephen is about relationships, with students, staff and community.

The stewardship of this vision of learning is rooted in his work with the district around the Skillful Leader, Professional Learning Communities and Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS).”

Dr. Ed Manansala, El Dorado County Superintendent of Schools, shared “Superintendent Wehr is an exceptional administrator whose experience, leadership, and genuine concern for student success has played a significant role in the development and implementation of many high quality education programs for students of the El Dorado Union High School District. A valuable quality that sets Superintendent Wehr apart is his ability to collaborate with staff, peers, and elementary school district superintendents. He was instrumental in developing academic and behavioral placement criteria for incoming ninth grade students, providing a multi-tier system of core instruction, academic and emotional support, and intervention.”

Steve Volmer, Assistant Superintendent of Student Services, was recognized as the Silver Star ACSA Pupil Personnel Administrator of the Year. Steve has assisted our schools in developing plans to enhance school climates and staff/student relationships. Steve initiated a process that enables the Board of Trustees to effectively converse with/listen to diverse groups of students at each of our high schools about their school experiences. He has brought in outside assistance from nationally recognized authorities to help the district implement brain-researched strategies to lower anxiety, reduce distress, and regulate emotions. He has also guided and supported our schools in their efforts to establish effective suicide prevention and postvention procedures and practices.

Steve has been at the forefront of the District’s initiation of Multi-tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) and implementation science for the purpose of developing and implementing intervention strategies designed to meet the needs of all students. Steve facilitates a District Safety Committee, working with law enforcement to provide enhanced safety measures for our students and staff, including appropriate safety procedures and plans related to active shooter situations. He has worked diligently to develop and implement processes that ensure our athletic programs are emotionally and physically safe for students, with emphasis on appropriate coaches’ training, coach/athlete relationships, and student/athlete feedback processes.

Steve Volmer has spent the past four decades supporting students and their families as they navigated the high school experience. He is extremely dedicated to his calling and committed to the success of every student he serves. He seeks the best in those with whom he works and is just as committed to providing an emotionally supportive and encouraging environment for all district staff.

Chas Prior, Principal at El Dorado High School, was recognized as the Silver Star ACSA Secondary Principal Administrator of the Year. Through the years, Chas has been recognized as a person of high integrity and vision, with an unwavering commitment to his colleagues and the young people he is entrusted to teach. He possess many traits which make him an effective administrator and he consistently demonstrates a deep understanding of pedagogy, specifically focused on maximizing learning for all students and his purposeful work in building the capacity of the faculty/staff who serve our students.

Having the largest concentration of Spanish speaking families in the District, Chas understands the challenges facing EL students and is committed to supporting structures and staff that provide organized outreach to our Spanish speaking families. Under Chas’ direction ELD offerings have increased, Reading Improvement classes as well as Academic Support classes for EL students struggling in science have been added, and departments are working to create materials and assessments for improved access to learning. Theses increasingly successful efforts have led to growth in the number of events held in Spanish as well as an increase in information designed to support families, student connection to school, and student academic success.

Chas’ leadership facilitates a positive school culture for all who teach and learn at El Dorado High School. Teachers regularly share with me how much they appreciate his commitment to providing them with the resources necessary to do their work well and, upon visiting student leadership classes, it is clear that the student voice is an important part of the fabric of the campus.

(PLACERVILLE, CA) – The County of El Dorado will be holding a public workshop to receive residents' input on the Cameron Park Drive Interchange Alternatives.   If you are interested in learning more about some of the Alternatives being considered, this would be an excellent opportunity for you to help influence the future of Cameron Park. The workshop will be an Open House format. The public is encouraged to drop in any time between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. to give input on the project alternatives.

The workshop will be held on the following date and time:

Wednesday, April 11, 2018
6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. 
Cameron Park Community Services District's Social Room
2502 Country Club Drive
Cameron Park, CA 95682

"Cameron Park, located in the foothill region of the Sacramento Valley is a suburban bedroom community to the Sacramento Metropolitan Area. The community contains a mix of single and multi-family housing, along with freeway oriented commercial, and other employment centers. Land use patterns and an automobile oriented roadway system have made vehicle transportation the predominant mode in Cameron Park. The residents of Cameron Park along with the Cameron Park Design Review Committee (CPDRC) have developed a Vision Statement for year 2030 that lays out a vision for a transportation system that unifies Cameron Park, is bike  FIGURE 1 - Planning Areas Cameron Park Community Transportation Plan Cameron Park Community Transportation Plan Page 3 Baseline Transportation Conditions Report R1893TS002.docx and pedestrian friendly, and supports opportunities to increase transit use."

This Saturday’s event at Placerville Speedway will be the first to use the new team/ vendor only access route. Teams and vendors will use Ray Lawyer Drive, which wraps around and drops you out near the top side of the speedway. Exit Forni Rd like usual but turn left and then make another left onto Ray Lawyer Drive, before making a final left onto Armory Way to the bottom tier of the parking lot.

This will be the new way to enter at the start of the night and exit at the end of the night. This new plan will avert “dragging” and causing damage to trailers upon entering and exiting.

In addition, haulers/ trailers are permitted to exit the pit area either before the green flag of the final event drops, or not until 30 minutes after the final checkered flag. Fans will continue to use the traditional entrance off Placerville Drive each night.
 

[Yolo County Supervisor Oscar Villegas]

Homelessness is a very complex issue, but the math is relatively simple. We have more than 2.2 million households in California that qualify as either Very or Extremely Low Income. There are only about 664,000 low-income housing units in the state. That means more than one and a half million households are struggling to find and afford a place to live. We need more affordable housing—and we need it now. Building or subsidizing more affordable housing won’t be easy or inexpensive, but the costs are far if we don’t find solutions.

The number of homeless people in the state has climbed to about 134,000 according to recent official counts, but the actual number is probably far higher. Homelessness has been linked to public health issues, wildfires and blight. And we know that homeless people are far more likely to suffer from illness, injury and violence. They are some of the most vulnerable people in our society. We should be helping homeless people get into homes and deal with the causes of their homelessness because in the long run, it will be far less expensive than dealing with the impacts of their homelessness. And frankly, it is also just the right thing to do.

That’s why the California State Association of Counties has proposed that the Governor and Legislature allocate $1.3 billionfrom this year’s projected state budget surplus for affordable housing programs and services. Last year the Legislature passed a series of housing bills that will provide more revenue for affordable housing, but it takes time. SB 2, for example, adds a $75 fee on recording housing documents. It will take at least a year to collect that revenue and more time to disburse it.

California needs to begin building affordable housing now and the current budget surplus could help reduce the cost of housing and streamline the process for thousands of eligible families. We also believe additional funds should be used to jumpstart the No Place Like Home Initiative to begin work on critically needed permanent supportive housing units. For the significant percentage of homeless people who need behavioral health treatment and other services to address the causes of their chronic homelessness, a supported place to live can be the key to that treatment.

California counties have “boots on the ground” experience with homelessness. Our recent report on homelessness from our joint taskforce with League of California Cities identified a housing voucher program in Marin County, a tiny-home community in Yuba County and a comprehensive pilot program in my own Yolo County. Counties are finding creative and innovative ways to get people into shelters, into programs that address the cause of their homelessness and eventually into permanent homes. But we need more affordable housing units as soon as possible to continue that work.

We urge the Legislature and Gov. Jerry Brown to consider the budget requests outlined in our letter. Homelessness and affordable housing are both crisis issues in California. We know what works to begin easing these issues and many local governments, non-profits and community-based organizations are finding success, but we need additional resources to meet the need. Solutions to the homelessness and housing crises are available, but it is now up to all of us to implement them.

[El Dorado County District Attorney]

On March 22, 2018, Crystal Dawn Collins, age 30, was sentenced to a year in county jail after entering a plea of "no contest" to felony assault causing serious bodily injury in violation of Penal Code 243(d).

The charges arise from an incident on February 2, 2018, in the City of Placerville.  Collins, who goes by the nickname "Wild Child," attacked a woman  who was sitting next to Collins' boyfriend in the parking area between Wells Fargo and El Dorado Savings banks.  

During the unprovoked attack, Collins knocked the victim to the ground and kicked her in the head several times.  Several bystanders witnessed the attack and called 911.  Placerville Police arrived on scene and apprehended Collins without incident.

The case was investigated by the Placerville Police Department and prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Ashley Colivas.

March 29 is National Vietnam War Veterans Day, which marks the day, March 29, 1973, when the final U.S. combat troops withdrew from Vietnam, and Hanoi freed the remaining American prisoners of war held in North Vietnam. 

President Trump recently signed into law The Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017, establishing The National Vietnam War Veterans Day that will, henceforth, be celebrated each year on March 29. 

A Proclamation by the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors commemorates this day for 2018.

[El Dorado County District Attorney]

On March 26, 2018, Jeffrey James Tippit, age 39, was sentenced to a year in county jail after entering a "no contest" plea to two separate charges of felony domestic violence.  Tippit will be on supervised probation for 4 years following his release from jail and will have to complete one year of domestic violence counseling, cannot possess weapons and must not have any contact with the victim for 5 years.

The case arose from a series of domestic violence incidents that occurred in April, August and September of 2017.  Tippit had charges pending against him when he committed new acts of domestic violence against the same victim, some of which were discovered during the continued investigation of the 1st reported incident.

The case was investigated by the Placerville Police Department and the District Attorney's Office Special Victims Unit Investigator, and prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Miles Perry.  Tippit has prior misdemeanor domestic violence convictions from 2000 and 2007.

[Nadine Ono, Public CEO]

Los Angeles County has been able to provide services and prevention efforts to more than 150,000 residents who have serious mental health needs or are at risk using funds from California’s special tax for mental health services. Providing those services lowered homelessness, the need for psychiatric hospitalizations and involvement with the criminal justice system, according to a new RAND Corporation study.

“Evaluation of the Mental Health Services Act in Los Angeles County: Implementation and Outcomes for Key Programs” found that the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health provided prevention and early intervention services to nearly 130,000 youth and clinical and social services to almost 25,000 and adults from 2012 to 2016.

“We found evidence that the services created in Los Angeles County under the Mental Health Services Act are reaching the people they intend to help, and those people are benefitting from the services provided,” said Scott Ashwood, lead author of the report and a policy researcher at RAND.

The funding comes from Proposition 63, the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), which was passed by California voters in 2004 and created a special tax on all personal income more than $1 million to provide expanded mental health services across the state. The Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission (MHSOAC) oversees the implementation of MHSA.

Los Angeles County used MHSA funds to expand Full Service Partnership (FSP) services, which are intensive programs that provide mental health and support services, and offer new prevention and early intervention (PEI) services. Researchers studied the reach and impact of these activities with a focus on PEI programs for children and transition-age youth (TAY) and FSP programs for children, TAY and adults.

Some key findings include:

- The vast numbers of youth served through PEI programs were members of ethnic minorities and 65 percent were new clients.

- FSP programs provide services to vulnerable and diverse populations and the individuals served by the programs tend to have severe diagnoses and relatively high rates of homelessness.

- FSP clients experienced decreased rates of homelessness and justice system detention, as well as decreased utilization of inpatient hospitalization for mental health. Adults had increased rates of having a primary care provider, suggesting a better connection to physical health care.

The study also found that there was a significant decline in the percentage of TAY clients detained by the justice system, including jail, prison or juvenile detention. In the year before enrollment in an FSP, 10.5 percent of TAY clients were detained compared to 7 percent in the year following enrollment. For adults, in the year prior to enrollment in an FSP, 17 percent of adult clients had at least one stay in jail or prison and, in the year following enrollment, 8.5 percent were detained.

MHSOAC released a report earlier this year focusing on the intersection on people with mental health needs in the criminal justice system.

The RAND study also found the rate of homelessness dropped among program participants. They also experienced less inpatient hospital stays for mental health needs. The employment rate increased among those receiving services, even though the overall jobless rate among this population remained high.

Researchers recommend that the county’s Department of Mental Health continue its efforts to reach vulnerable populations and improve outcomes for diverse racial/ethnic groups, improve data collection methods to better measure participants’ life quality improvement and track cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis.

"Public health activities and policies can positively influence the overall health of our communities," said Dr. Nancy Williams, El Dorado County Public Health Officer. "Public Health consists of monitoring health, performing activities, and instituting policies that relate to the general population. These activities can be more impactful than addressing health issues one person at a time. In essence, Public Health sets the stage for preventing illness and injury from occurring in the first place." 

Dr. Williams explained that while public health officials are required by law to provide some clinical care to individuals who are unable to get care elsewhere, classic public health activities include:

- Responding to Health Threats– such as working in partnership with environmental health to investigate and stop a foodborne or communicable disease outbreak, a compromised water line that might render water unsafe to drink, or a bioterrorism event;

- Health Education– such as teaching people how to quit smoking, the benefits of installing pool-fencing to reduce child drowning deaths, how to recognize signs of depression or other mental illness, or which foods to eat to maintain healthy weight and proper nutrition;
 
- Promoting Healthy Activities and Environments– such as working with engineers and planners to ensure that new communities include sidewalks and playgrounds so that children and adults can walk and play, stay active and healthy, and reduce their chances of developing high blood pressure, diabetes or heart disease;
 
- Preventing Disease through Vaccinations– such as community based vaccination programs against measles, rubella, and many other harmful diseases;
 
- Policy Development– such as when public health officials worked to enact policies to remove lead from paint and gasoline after lead exposure was discovered to be harmful to children's physical and mental development.

These are just a few of the types of activities performed by public health departments around the world and by the El Dorado County Public Health staff. For further information about El Dorado County Public Health programs and services visit https://www.edcgov.us/publichealth.

[Josh Delk]

President Trump on Friday issued an official proclamation designating April as National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. 

In a statement, Trump encouraged the nation to "remain steadfast" in working to prevent sexual crimes and reaffirmed his administration's commitment to empowering individuals to speak out in their communities and workplaces against perpetrators. 

"Sexual assault crimes remain tragically common in our society, and offenders too often evade accountability. These heinous crimes are committed indiscriminately: in intimate relationships, in public spaces, and in the workplace," Trump said. 

The longstanding observation of the month, which often sees outreach by public health organizations and community crisis centers nationwide, comes this year following a wave of sexual misconduct and assault allegations against high-profile men in media, entertainment and politics in recent months.

The proclamation also comes after the Trump administration was embroiled in controversy earlier this year after past domestic abuse allegations against former White House staff secretary Rob Porter from his two ex-wives were revealed.

The president himself has also faced accusations of misconduct by multiple women dating back to his days as a real estate mogul and reality television star, and has faced controversy for making lewd comments about his relationships with women in the past.

Construction activities will be resuming for the 2nd year of the three-year planned Forebay Project. 

Notice - Forebay Project Construction Scheduled to Resume April 2018

This is notification that the El Dorado Irrigation District (EID) plans to resume construction for the El Dorado Forebay Dam Modification Project (Project) in April 2018.

As required by the California Division of Safety of Dams and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Project remediates the El Dorado Forebay Dam and its associated facilities to meet current dam safety requirements. By constructing an earthen stability buttress on the dry side of the dam, raising the dam 10 vertical feet, and upgrading the surrounding facilities the Project will satisfy specific regulatory mandates while also improving the reliability of the drinking water system and minimizing impacts to EID ratepayers through increased hydroelectric revenue.

Implementation of the Project will likely inconvenience local area residents, the community, as well as visitors and tourists who utilize the Forebay day-use areas. In an effort to help minimize any inconvenience, EID is providing this notification to keep local residents informed of Project activities and provide information on how interested parties can stay informed.

A few key points regarding Project activities planned for 2018:

• • Construction activities include excavation and hauling of earth material from the borrow area to the dam for construction of the new stability buttress and work on associated dam structures (e.g., spillway, penstock).
• • From October – December 2018, the reservoir will be dewatered to facilitate construction activities at the reservoir inlet canal, drinking water intake, and penstock intake structure.
• • Timber harvest will occur around the reservoir and in the primary borrow area to ensure sufficient fill material is available to construct the new dam embankment.
• • The Project area, including El Dorado Forebay Dam day-use areas, will remain completely closed to the public during construction activities and timber harvest.
• • Traffic control and temporary lane closures may be necessary to safely conduct construction activities in the vicinity of the El Dorado Forebay Dam and surrounding areas.
• • Construction equipment, logging trucks and other work vehicles will be crossing and entering the roadway at various locations around the Project area including Pony Express Trail, Forebay Road, Polaris Road, and Drop-off Road.
