13.     JOBS---YOUTH /Paid Summer Opportunities Available.

 

 

Paid Summer Opportunities Available

 

Two Summer Internships are available at the Federation for Children with Special Needs for 7 weeks in July and August 2011.  The Federation is proud to be a part of the Martin Luther King Summer Scholars initiative (formerly known as Boston Summer Scholars), sponsored by John Hancock Financial in response to Mayor Menino's call to action in support of Boston teens.

  

This year, the MLK Summer Scholars program is joined by Boston University and Partners HealthCare in paying tribute to the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. here in Boston. Dr. King lived in Boston while completing his doctorate at Boston University from 1951-1955. The renaming of the Summer Scholars program underscores King's message of social change through hard work.

 

Employment for this opportunity will be at The Federation for Children with Special Needs, which is a parent advocacy organization that serves parents of children at risk and those with special health and education needs through the provision of information, resources, presentations and phone calls from those seeking support.  Services are routinely provided in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese and other languages as needed.  The Federation is conveniently located at Renaissance Park, immediately adjacent to the Ruggles “T” Stop.

 

The Federation is seeking two MLK Summer Scholars; one with interest and skills in Agency Administration and one in Information Technology.  Interns will work approximately 17.5 hours per week including a weekly Friday morning training seminar.

 

Student interns must meet the following criteria:

·         At least 15 years old

·         Resident of Boston

·         In high school or a recent (2011) high school graduate

 

Along with gaining valuable workplace experience, students will attend a series of life skills workshops, focused on building their own legacies, each Friday morning at Boston University's Agganis Arena, 925 Commonwealth Ave. Boston, MA.

 

MLK Summer Scholars is an outgrowth of The Boston Globe Foundation's Opportunity for Unity initiative and John Hancock's Summer of Opportunity program.

 

If interested, please send application and cover letter  to Sara Miranda, Associate Executive Director 1135 Tremont St Suite 420, Boston, MA 02120  or e-mail: smiranda@fcsn.org.   Application deadline is Friday, June 10, 2011 by 5 p.m.

 

 

 

 

Applicants should attach a one page cover letter explaining why the student wishes to be an MLK Summer Scholar and what he or she has accomplished or plans to accomplish that reflects Dr. King’s philosophies.

Selected students are asked to attend the press kickoff at the Agganis Arena at Boston University at a date to be determined.

Students are required to attend Friday morning training workshops from 8:30 -11 a.m., every Friday from July 8 through August 12 at Agganis Arena.

Franklin Park Coalition t       It's a beautiful day! Join us for Radical Roxbury, the first bicycle tour of the season! The 1960s were a time of unrest in our neighborhood, but also an exciting time of political and cultural change. You'll hear great stories as we meander through Roxbury by bike.       Wednesday, May 25th 6:00pm Radical Roxbury Bike Tour Meet at Roxbury Crossing. Helmets required. Tour costs $10. You don't need to be a fast urban cyclist to join in, we'll take the hills slowly, but gears are helpful. The tour will visit the sites of Roxbury's "radical" history. We'll begin with the relatively well-known protests against the construction of I-95 along the Southwest Corridor. From there our attention will focus on mid-20th century revolutionary leaders Martin Luther King, Jr and Malcolm X. After passing the former locations of the Black Panthers and SNCC, we'll end with an overview of the 1967 and 1968 riots in Grove Hall and the police staging grounds in Franklin Park. Tie dyed t-shirt and and Afro pic are optional. Click here to buy tickets or just bring $10 with you.                   BOTTLE BILL ACTION ALERT! Call your state senator and representative - urge them to actively support the Bottle Bill. More than a hundred cities and towns across the Commonwealth, including Boston, and a majority of voters support the updated Bottle Bill. It will bring money to state coffers and keep trash out of our parks - saving on maintenance and making parks cleaner. Our elected officials are not hearing from enough people to make a difference. Please contact yours today.         Even More Spring Activities! Bicycle Tours of Roxbury Monthly rides from May - September with a different theme for each tour. Helmets required. Register at www.discoverroxbury.org - all rides start or end in Franklin Park. $10.00/ride. - Thursday, June 16th 6:00pm - Eliot Square to Franklin Park - a neighborhood introduction   National Trails Day - volunteer in the park woodlands!

Dear supporter of tax fairness and United for a Fair Economy, The Senate will vote this week on the disastrous House budget.  Please read the alert below from our friends at the Coalition on Human Needs (CHN) and email a letter to your two Senators asking them to oppose the House budget.  When you personalize your email, please add some or all of these points: We should be raising more revenue from the wealthy and corporations, not hurting vulnerable families. Restoring a strong estate tax would bring in $73 billion over 10 years, compared to the weak estate tax passed last year. Taxing capital gains and dividends at the same rate as income from work would bring in $88 billion per year. Eliminating the Bush Tax Cuts for wealthy households over the next 10 years would generate $690 billion and save $140 billion in interest on debt. Passing the Fairness in Taxation Act would generate $78 billion a year by adding higher tax brackets for incomes over $1 million. Closing overseas tax havens for global corporations like General Electric would raise $100 billion a year. And changing these tax laws would reduce income disparities too! Please use the link in the CHN alert below to send your Senators a letter today. And please share this alert widely with people you know. Thanks for taking action, Lee Farris Senior Organizer on Estate Tax Policy United for a Fair Economy 29 Winter St., Boston, MA 02108 617-423-2148 x133 lfarris@faireconomy.org     We've made it easy:  click here for a letter you can email to your Senators. We hope you'll personalize it by adding something of importance to you in the middle of the letter.  Individualized emails get much more attention.  But personalized or not, please take a minute to tell your Senators how important it is to vote no.  (To write to your Senators:  http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/125/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=6874) These budgets are much more about shrinking government and cutting upper-income taxes than about reducing the deficit.  They hurt low- and moderate-income people, cost millions of jobs, threaten our fragile economic recovery, leave millions (including seniors) without vital medical coverage, and close off opportunities for our children to share in future economic growth. The bad budgets that are expected on the Senate floor: The House-passed Budget Resolution:  Over 10 years, it would slash $4.3 trillion in needed services, about two-thirds of which help low-income people.  At the same time, it makes net tax cuts worth $4.2 trillion almost exclusively targeted to the top 5 percent, leaving relatively little for deficit reduction.  Starting in the second decade, the House budget would turn Medicare into a voucher, doubling the burden of payment for its beneficiaries.  Far from helping the economy, this plan would cause the loss of 2.2 million jobs over the next two years. Here's an example of winners and losers in the House Budget Resolution: Just one of the new tax cuts benefiting high-earners would give a $1.64 million tax cut to a household earning $8.5 million.  But the cuts in food stamps/SNAP wouldtake away $147 a month from a low-income family of four.  And a family with two children with a parent working full-time at the minimum wage would lose about $1,500 a year from a cut in the Child Tax Credit.  Just some of the reasons why you should send this letter to your Senators right now! For more information about the House budget, click here. Senator Patrick Toomey's budget proposal:  Senator Toomey (R-PA) has drafted a budget that cuts even more than the House plan (spending 3 percent less over 10 years).  The plan indicates that more than half this figure will come from programs that provide income security for low-income people.  This plan also reduces tax rates for the wealthiest and for corporations, with the stated goal of remaining revenue neutral (however, the "special tax breaks" that would be eliminated to pay for rate reductions are unspecified).  For more information about the Toomey budget plan, click here (pdf). For more information about these and other deficit reduction and/or massive service cut proposals, see CHN's SAVE for All webpage.  http://www.chn.org/save4all/index.html When so much is at stake, please don't let your Senators say that no one cared enough to contact them.  Votes may be taken as early as Tuesday or Wednesday of this week - don't delay!  Click here to send the letter. 29 Winter Sreet, 2nd Floor | Boston, MA 02108 US

11.     Boston Branch NAACP Legal Trainings/Identifying Discrimination “It is what it is. Or is it?”   (6/8-5:30-8:30pm)

 

 

http://www.dotnews.com/directory/naacp-legal-trainings-kroc-center

 

Each of you have huge networks and the Boston Branch NAACP is asking you to please post the information regarding our upcoming Discrimination Training on your FB pages or distribute via email.  Whether an urban professional, blue color worker, the chronically unemployed, a young person or a senior, a Democratic or Republican...folks have likely experienced some form of discrimination if you're black or brown in Boston.  However, we find ourselves questioning whether it's us or them.  We may struggle with making the case or with finding an attorney to represent us.  We often avoid the time, expense and energy required to challenge the person, the institution or the system--but what's the effect of that choice on long term change.  We have entitled our training "It is what it is.  Or is it?" and we're confident this will be a major step toward reawakening the much needed conversation on discrimination and race.  I would like to ensure there is not one empty seat in the Kroc Center, since this training is so important and rare.

 

The official marketing of this FREE training will begin Tuesday, May 23rd, but we have already begun to receive RSVPs from community residents, local attorneys, activists and academics.  We will not hear individual cases at this training, but will announce ongoing legal clinics where residents can work with attorneys on their specific complaints.  Space is limited to 250 people.

 

Please help us spread the word...

 

Michael Curry, President

Boston Branch NAACP

 

NAACP legal trainings at Kroc Center

By Bill Forry
May. 19, 2011

On Wednesday, June 8, 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., the Boston Branch NAACP will hosting a Racial Discrimination Training at the Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center, located at 650 Dudley Street,Dorchester. The training is co-sponsored with the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights, the Urban League of Eastern Massachusetts' Young Professional's Network (YPN) and the Fair Housing Center of Greater Boston, and supported by the Attorney General's Civil Rights Division and the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD).
What is racial discrimination? How do you prove it? What are the roles of the various local, state and federal agencies and law enforcement entities? How do you respond if you've been a victim of discrimination? What is MCAD and how do you navigate the complaint submission process? What if you're represented by a union? These are just a few of the questions that we plan to address during this three-hour training. Following the training, the Boston Branch NAACP will work with the Fair Housing Center of Greater Boston, the Lawyer's Committee for Civil Rights and possibly a local law school to develop ongoing legal clinics where people can come for assistance with their specific cases. RSVP at rsvp@bostonnaacp.org.

Paid Summer Opportunities Available

 

Two Summer Internships are available at the Federation for Children with Special Needs for 7 weeks in July and August 2011.  The Federation is proud to be a part of the Martin Luther King Summer Scholars initiative (formerly known as Boston Summer Scholars), sponsored by John Hancock Financial in response to Mayor Menino's call to action in support of Boston teens.

  

This year, the MLK Summer Scholars program is joined by Boston University and Partners HealthCare in paying tribute to the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. here in Boston. Dr. King lived in Boston while completing his doctorate at Boston University from 1951-1955. The renaming of the Summer Scholars program underscores King's message of social change through hard work.

 

Employment for this opportunity will be at The Federation for Children with Special Needs, which is a parent advocacy organization that serves parents of children at risk and those with special health and education needs through the provision of information, resources, presentations and phone calls from those seeking support.  Services are routinely provided in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese and other languages as needed.  The Federation is conveniently located at Renaissance Park, immediately adjacent to the Ruggles “T” Stop.

 

The Federation is seeking two MLK Summer Scholars; one with interest and skills in Agency Administration and one in Information Technology.  Interns will work approximately 17.5 hours per week including a weekly Friday morning training seminar.

 

Student interns must meet the following criteria:

·         At least 15 years old

·         Resident of Boston

·         In high school or a recent (2011) high school graduate

 

Along with gaining valuable workplace experience, students will attend a series of life skills workshops, focused on building their own legacies, each Friday morning at Boston University's Agganis Arena, 925 Commonwealth Ave. Boston, MA.

 

MLK Summer Scholars is an outgrowth of The Boston Globe Foundation's Opportunity for Unity initiative and John Hancock's Summer of Opportunity program.

 

If interested, please send application and cover letter  to Sara Miranda, Associate Executive Director 1135 Tremont St Suite 420, Boston, MA 02120  or e-mail: smiranda@fcsn.org.   Application deadline is Friday, June 10, 2011 by 5 p.m.

 

 

 

 

Applicants should attach a one page cover letter explaining why the student wishes to be an MLK Summer Scholar and what he or she has accomplished or plans to accomplish that reflects Dr. King’s philosophies.

Selected students are asked to attend the press kickoff at the Agganis Arena at Boston University at a date to be determined.

Students are required to attend Friday morning training workshops from 8:30 -11 a.m., every Friday from July 8 through August 12 at Agganis Arena.
