Download or read book Occupational Labor Shortages written by Burt S. Barnow and published by W.E. Upjohn Institute. This book was released on 2013 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Barnow, Trutko, and Piatak focus on whether persistent occupation-specific labor shortages might lead to inefficiencies in the U.S. economy. They describe why shortages arise, the difficulty in ascertaining that a shortage is present, and how to assess strategies to alleviate the shortage. Four occupations are used as test cases: 1) special education teachers, 2) pharmacists, 3) physical therapists, and 4) home health and personal care aides. For each of these occupations the authors summarize evidence that reveals whether it is currently or has recently experienced a labor shortage and suggest possible ways to alleviate the shortage if it is present. The authors close with a chapter discussing their conclusions and potential uses for occupational shortage data, including in helping determine immigration policy. They also discuss the limited nature of the occupational data currently collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and how the federal and state governments could expand their data collection efforts to assist policy formation."--Publisher's website

Download or read book Challenging Confinement written by Bonnie L. Ernst and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines how the feminist movements in the late twentieth century ignited prison protests, activism, and reform in women’s prisons While the late twentieth century brought about greater rights for women, it also saw a rapid increase in the number of female prisoners. Before their confinement, many incarcerated women had gained access to work and higher education. But once behind bars, they found the only programs available for them perpetuated misogynistic norms. Challenging Confinement is about how incarcerated women incorporated strategies from feminist movements into their activism behind bars. Facing long sentences, overcrowded prisons, and a lack of rehabilitation programs, incarcerated women protested, organized, and filed lawsuits to advocate for gender and racial equality in prison. Drawing on prison grievance reports, oral histories, state archives, and private collections, Bonnie L. Ernst tells the story of how women's movements, beginning in the 1920s and ending in the era of mass incarceration, infused prison activism in Michigan with new energy. Female prisoners and attorneys successfully persuaded the federal court to force state prisons to offer more programming and access to legal services. Mass incarceration swallowed up many of those efforts, but this history demonstrates how core principles of women’s movements encouraged incarcerated women to form coalitions and challenge their jailers. By bringing together histories of race, gender, and punishment, Challenging Confinement reveals how incarcerated women worked together to resist, in an era of mass imprisonment.
Download or read book Cash Drops and Keystrokes written by Ronald S. King, and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's moral crisis is exponentially exploding while the government is legitimizing and promoting the gambling enterprise. Gambling addiction has no limits and is found in all segments of society. According to some estimates, as much as one-third of the nation's economy passes through the gambling enterprise each year. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg. For several decades, casinos and gambling ships have catered to the elderly. Currently, we are beginning to see the monster under the iceberg, gambling on the Internet while fantasy sports have been developing into daily fantasy sports. The nation's youth can be swallowed up by gambling with one click and a credit card. The purpose of this study is to develop a topical review of problem gambling in America. Various dimensions of problem gambling, from the source of the addiction to potential recovery, are covered. Recovery methods are identified. Basic research methods for gambling research are overviewed and studied. Distinction is made between the procedures employed in executing a research project and the methods employed in gathering the data necessary to the project. A biblical foundation is emphasized throughout the text.
