Denver Children's Advocacy Center (DCAC) serves children who have been sexually abused, neglected, or traumatized by witnessing violence. DCAC is one of 14 child advocacy centers in Colorado providing child-friendly, family-supportive services in one central location or close by. Our goal is to ensure that every low-income child in Denver who has been traumatized by sexual abuse, or by witnessing homicide or domestic violence receives immediate, compassionate and effective investigation, assessment and, if needed, mental health treatment. DCAC never charges for its services.

Find out why we need the non-partisan Advocacy Corporation or Anti-Corporation to structurally protect information in society and the people who share information, and exactly how this will work. At it's core it's a very simple concept whose time has come in 2008. [Transcript] [Intro] Imagine this: The Advocacy Corporation or Anti-Corporation -a NEW type of partially federally subsidized, corporation whose ONLY legal reponsibility is to ensure an informed citizenry - giving YOU a TAX DEDUCTION for contributing to it AND allowing you to INVEST in the things YOU believe in or advocate. An AC, in support of other advocates, gets FREE TELEVISION TIME for positions advocated as a "public service announcement" - AND places the responsibility of "informing" the people in the hands of the people. Preserving the essence of the capitalistic system to ensure that it can NEVER become communistic or socialistic, requiring limited government involvement (the Republican goal) AND giving the Advocates collectively MORE POWER than the corporations (the Democratic goal) AND the Government (the Libertarian goal). Protect the role of the advocate by institutionalizing it. YOU are the Advocate. The First Advocacy Corporation type: The Advocacy Corporation type, or Anti-Corporation (AC), has one legal responsibility - to create an active and knowledgeable citizenry that cannot be bought (imagine 50 FDA's exerting pressure advocating for public safety from the PRIVATE sector). AC's do not legally need to make a profit (as most corporations do). It is a special kind of corporation, an Anti-Corporation. It does this by being partially federally subsidized, based on a tier of advocacy it has achieved and each citizen may create 1 AC if they choose every year - so if YOU create an AC - based on some type of transparent advocacy goal - you immediately have the ability to: [Next Slide] 1. Via FCC regulations to be put into place, to offer "public service announcements" on a topic related to your advocacy goal. Each channel - not network - must allot a 2 hour time block every day during prime time television (4 hours if the media owner wants to run commercials), for AC's ONLY to register within. A single AC cannot run more than once in a 3 month time period. Also a single point of view cannot run more than once in a 1 month time period. A similar model will need to be applied to print media as well or any other type of unregulated domain. [Next Slide] 2. Donate to an AC and get a tax deduction. 3. Invest in an AC and have your money invested into Advocates in society consistent with your advocacy goal. There is however, no ROI guaranteed. 4. Go to a web site that transparently displays why the AC is invested in a particular Advocate and how close the Advocate (a person, organization, corporation, politician, etc.), is to getting a "cash infusion" - once a point is reached determined by the AC itself in it's charter, an AC MUST invest shareholder money AND donations into it's Advocates. [Next Slide] Ensure that it BECOMES profitable to increase your level of awareness, and the wrong reasons for doing things and the wrong things we are doing, will get weeded out faster...

My tribute to one of my top 3 favorite movies. This is not a movie review explaining that "Aliens" is, a matter of fact, the best movie ever. Don't take things so seriously, please. This is a tribute, a very personal, enthusiastic music video from a girl who loves Cameron and his masterpiece, dedicated to everyone out there who also loves them. I chose Metallica's "Enter Sandman" as music, not by chance, but because that song was the origin of the idea for this video. And I stick to that idea, I think it's a great song and it gives the video the spirit I was looking for. If any of you disagrees with that choice... well, what can I say: make your own Aliens video and don't try to convince me I was wrong, cause I'm proud of this video.

Child Law at Loyola University Chicago School of law: The Civitas ChildLaw Center and the ChildLaw Fellows Program. Each year, Loyola University Chicago School of Law selects approximately seven to ten potential law students to become ChildLaw Fellows on the basis of their academic ability, leadership potential and commitment to careers as child advocates. To support and encourage this career choice, Fellows are awarded tuition and internship support, internship experience, and, in addition to the regular law school curriculum, pursue an interdisciplinary course of study that provides the knowledge and skills needed to advocate effectively for children's legal interests. It is the hope and expectation of the Civitas ChildLaw Center that Fellows will become leaders in the field of child advocacy. Some of these Fellows provide direct representation to child clients and others work in policy development, research and judicial administration that focus on children. For more information, and to apply for the Fellowship, please visit www.luc.edu/childlaw

Watch Nathan Winograd's appearance on Rescue Roundtable. We are a nation of animal lovers. But the shelters we expect to provide dogs and cats a second chance are instead killing five million of them. And for far too long, we have been told that the killing is exclusively the public's fault. That shelters --through no fault of their own--are merely performing the public's dirty work--with skill, compassion, and dedication. Nothing could be further from the truth.
