World Business Chicago Celebrates Key Economic Achievements CHICAGO PRNewswire -- World Business Chicago, the city’s economic development agency, has rolled out a bookish new marketing campaign centered around the term “pro-Chicago” to highlight key economic achievements in 2021, including record-breaking VC investments, the expansion and growth of local and international companies, and economic development-related awards and accolades.

The ad campaign will be published online, in print, across social media and on three city expressway digital billboards through Tuesday, Feb. 22.

“Anyone who knows me, knows that my favorite KPI’s are pro-Chicago decisions,” says Michael Fassnacht, President & CEO, World Business Chicago and Chief Marketing Officer, City of Chicago. “The World Business Chicago Research Center and the team track all types of activity throughout the year. This data helps us position Chicago competitively in the U.S. and on the world stage. The pro-Chicago decision ad campaign is intended to draw attention to the number of companies choosing Chicago to grow their business. I hope the business community and Chicagoans will see that we truly have the wind at our back going into 2022.”

Aggressive marketing and branding of the city is a cornerstone of the mayor’s COVID-19 Recovery Task Force work, with a dedicated push by World Business Chicago to emphasize Chicago’s leading role on the global economic stage. Long known as the industrial and financial powerhouse of the Midwest, Chicago is being reintroduced to the world as an economically diversified hub of tech, distribution and logistics, food innovation, manufacturing, finance, and many other verticals.

“Our city enjoys legacy industries and new emerging ones. The disruption caused by the last two years has emboldened us to seize this once-in-a-generation opportunity to make this city work even better by creating a new economic model based on inclusive growth, taking a holistic approach to development across downtown and throughout our many vibrant neighborhoods.” said Samir Mayekar,

Deputy Mayor, Economic & Neighborhood Development, City of Chicago. “The data that World Business Chicago provides us weekly, monthly and annually is vitally important to forecasting opportunities ahead and allows us to better support our corporate and business community by listening to their concerns and making it easier to do business.”

World Business Chicago invites all to follow the organization on LinkedIn and Twitter for upcoming and future news and announcements.

“Chicago has long been one of the world’s major financial centers, and has recently become a hub for innovation and technology. My co-founders and I knew that it was the perfect city for CoinFlip to succeed. In the past few years, we’ve seen Chicago become one of the biggest players in the country for cryptocurrency and blockchain advancements, and we’re honored to play a significant role. We are grateful that our elected officials embrace and advocate on behalf of cryptocurrency. Leaders, including Mayor Lightfoot, have routinely proven their commitment to making Chicago a home for cryptocurrency and fintech companies to thrive. Because of this, we have committed to expanding our business in Chicago and will continue to invest in programs to help local communities.” - Ben Weiss, CEO and Co-Founder of CoinFlip.

On Wednesday, Feb. 9, World Business Chicago will publish a “2021 Year-in-Review” report, an original study of key economic drivers in 2021 by the WBC Research Center. Links to the report and a companion infographic campaign will publish on World Business Chicago’s LinkedIn and Twitter.

World Business Chicago is the city of Chicago’s public-private economic development agency. Our mission is to drive inclusive economic growth and job creation, support businesses, and promote Chicago as the leading global city to help existing Chicago companies expand and to also attract new companies. Our vision is to make Chicago the most business-friendly city in the world by becoming a role model for truly inclusive economic growth, ensuring that all Chicagoans prosper through equitable economic development.

NAMI CHICAGO, YOUNG INVINCIBLES FIGHT FOR MENTAL HEALTH FUNDING ON ILLINOIS’ COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES New legislation would provide long-delayed funding for a campus mental health bill that became law in 2019 The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Chicago and Young Invincibles announced the filing of the Mental Health Early Action on Campus Appropriations Act, vital new legislation to fund mental health supports for Illinois’ college students. HB5424 was filed Friday, Jan. 28, in the Illinois State House by State Representative La Shawn K. Ford, who has been a leader and advocate for struggling students across the state. Companion legislation, SB4055, was filed by State Senator Celina Villanueva in the Illinois State Senate, who has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to improving higher education services. NAMI Chicago and Young Invincibles are championing this legislation as part of a longtime advocacy campaign for campus mental health services.

HB5424/SB4055 would appropriate $19 million in Illinois’ 2023 fiscal year to fully fund the 2019 Mental Health Early Action on Campus Act (MHEACA), which required all public two- and

four-year colleges and universities to support the mental health of students by: Increasing training and awareness among faculty, staff, and students; Building better mental health screening to better identify students in need; Improving capacity to provide mental health treatment and peer support on campus; and creating a statewide Technical Assistance Center to assist in implementation and quality assurance.

Although the MHEACA was signed into law in 2019, it was not funded – leaving colleges and universities who welcomed the new requirements scrambling to create necessary change.

“Many students experience their first mental health challenges or crisis during college,” said Rachel Bhagwat, Director of Policy at NAMI Chicago. “They are managing school and work stress, being away from home, and many are in a common age range for mental health conditions to emerge. Illinois students need our support, and NAMI Chicago is determined to secure the funding our colleges and universities need to help them thrive.”

RLM will kick off their first community project by launching a book drive and fundraiser with a goal of donating 200 books and $100,000 in 2022. For every book that is donated, the company will match it with $5, and all books and funding will go to RLM’s annual charity of choice.

This year’s first charity of choice will be an organization called Room to Read. The Room to Read program focuses on helping children in low-income communities by bridging the gap in child literacy. They also focus their efforts on giving girls the books and tools they need to learn so that they can advocate for themselves.

RLM invites everyone to join them in their efforts to support literacy in women and girls, by donating books at their downtown Chicago offices, have them picked up by an RLM representative or donate monetarily online by going here.

“The new Sandals Royal Bahamian encompasses a new era in travel, inviting our guests in love to connect with the vibrant culture, natural wonders, and authentic traditions of the beautiful Bahamas — and in turn reconnect with each other,” said Sandals Resorts Executive Chairman Adam Stewart. “We have a long history in the beloved Bahamas and it’s simply one of the most beautiful

places on Planet Earth. It’s what lured our founder and my father, Gordon ‘Butch’ Stewart, to this illustrious setting over 26 years ago. We’ve added special elements throughout the resort to impart his legacy to the setting we’ve created here. Our new Butch’s Island Chop House restaurant and adjacent Mr. B’s bar, for example, both give a nautical nod to his love for the sea, and even his iconic blue and white striped shirts served as the esthetic inspiration. At Sandals Royal Bahamian, we honor our celebrated past, while surprising our guests in entirely new ways.”

DOVE LAUNCHES ‘AS EARLY AS FIVE’ ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J. PRNewswire -Dove has released a NEW body of research, “Dove 2021 CROWN Research Study for Girls,” unveiling the alarming rate and young age at which Black girls experience hair discrimination in schools. As part of the brand’s ongoing commitment to ending race-based hair discrimination via The CROWN Act legislation (Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair), the study reveals that 53% of Black mothers, whose daughters have experienced hair discrimination, say their daughters experienced the discrimination as early as 5 years old, and approximately 86% of Black teens who experience discrimination have endured it by the age of 12.

Fueled by these research findings, Dove released a short film, As Early As Five, inspired by the far too many real stories of those who have experienced hair discrimination and bias in both schools and the workplace.

66% of Black girls in majority-white schools report experiencing discrimination.

45% of Black girls in all school environments report experiencing hair bias and discrimination.

Trauma from these experiences cause girls to miss days from school.

Teenage Black girls are missing a week of school due to hair dissatisfaction.

“Our groundbreaking 2019 CROWN research study revealed that Black women are 80% more likely to change their hair from its natural state to fit in at the office. Now, this new body of research illuminates the pervasive nature and deep impact hair discrimination has on Black girls highlighting the horrific multi-generational impact of narrow beauty standards in America.

These biases continue to perpetuate unfair scrutiny and discrimination against Black women and girls for wearing hairstyles inherent to our culture. This is unacceptable and why it is imperative that everyone join the movement to make hair discrimination illegal nationwide through the passage of The CROWN Act,” says EVP & COO of Unilever North America, Esi Eggleston Bracey.

Join Dove in the movement to make race-based hair discrimination illegal and ensure a positive change for the next generation by signing The CROWN Act petition at Dove.com/CROWN. Research Methodology The 2021 Dove CROWN Research Study for Girls was conducted by JOY Collective, a Black and women-owned firm, in July-August 2021 to assess the impact of hair discrimination before adulthood and the effect on the self-esteem in young Black girls.

An online survey was completed in the US by 1000 girls (500 Black and 500 white) age 5-18. The group included a natural mix of Black girls who attend predominantly Black schools, diverse schools and predominantly white school environments. The survey included questions about personality descriptors, presence of bias in school, school hair policy, impact of hair bias and recreation of the 1954 Doll Test. All data tested at 95% confidence level.

Disrupted by the Data Thinking back, around her family’s kitchen She was a doctoral student conducting a table, there were conversations about what ailed review of the literature on dementia when she first realized that Black bodies: things like “hypertension, diabetes, cancer, and even older African Americans are twice as likely as non-Hispanic whites HIV/AIDS, but the topic of dementia went unspoken,” remembers to develop Alzheimer’s, a type of brain disease and a common form Epps. Then, like now, she adds, stigma and shame—experienced by of dementia. those with dementia and their families—is responsible for much of “I was shocked. I just couldn’t believe it,” recalls Epps who the silence that Golden referenced. specializes in gerontology, the study of aging. “I had to do someBy B. Denise Hawkins

“We [African Americans] are such a hush-hush community,” says Epps, who since 2017, has focused on breaking that silence.

She is conducting faith-based research, education, and spreading dementia and brain health awareness in the African American community. Together with a team of staff and students, those efforts are housed under the umbrella Faith Village Research Lab, “because it takes a village.”

Faith in the Village As a young girl, she says, “I saw a village model of care and support” in action. Across generations, households, and distances, “There were people caring for each other.” Many of them were like her aunt who counted it a “joy,” not a “burden” to rise before the sun and travel far to bathe and care for her infirmed grandmother. “I did the same when I took care of my paternal grandmother,” remembers Epps. “It was no problem. It was a joy.”

Caregivers, those living with dementia, educators, and faith and community leaders are among those who make up Epps’ advisory board—and village that keeps her informed “about what those in the community need” on their journey with dementia.

Today, she’s working on a few faith-based research projects that are funded by NIH, the Alzheimer’s Association, and other federal and private funders. They keep the nurse educator in the community and connected to Black families, who like her, have familiar and deep roots in the Black church. Central to that work are ways that African Americans living with dementia and their caregivers can draw on their own faith practices, spirituality, and religious beliefs to cope with an incurable disease that impacts them twice as much as other groups.

faith-based traditions are in the lives of Black families living with dementia,” says Epps of her research and work she calls “her ministry.”

The literature,” she says, “supports the significance of religiosity as a protective factor to promote well-being for Black families facing dementia.”

But lesser known, she says, is research on “the worship experiences” of those Black families; something that she intends to expand.

It matters Epps says, when a person’s identity is linked to their religion or place of worship. Over time dementia, robs a person living with the disease of not only their memory but also their identity.

That’s why “having a faith tradition and belonging to a faith community” can be restorative and serve as an anchor for people with dementia, explains Epps who is designing and testing the impact of in-person and online dementia-friendly worship services.

Before the COVID-19 outbreak shuttered many churches, Epps often accompanied the families and caregivers in her research study to Sunday morning church services at dementia-friendly churches.

Like most researchers who worked in the field, she was soon forced to pivot when the pandemic started. Working with faith leaders, Epps and her team developed pilot online worship services for those unable to physically attend church. Church attendance often slumps and so does participation in church activities after a person receives a dementia diagnosis and as their disease progress. Epps wanted a way to “offer a meaningful religious activity,” and to keep those living with dementia connected to a faith community, even if it was online.

Each of the online services is about 10 minutes long, have a central theme, offer live music and old, familiar hymns, a sermon, and on selected Sundays, communion may be celebrated—all features that have made worship convenient and enjoyable for 56-yearold Kim Reid who was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s at age 50. She and Robert Reid, her husband and care partner, enrolled in the study around the time their Georgia church ceased operating because of the pandemic and organizational changes.

“Church used to keep us busy from sunup to sundown,” says Robert Reid who served as a deacon and was active in other ministries. Since the church closure and his wife’s diagnosis, that pace has dwindled to home Bible Study on Wednesday evenings and Sunday online worship. And while they the miss the fellowship of in-person services, Robert Reid said they are drawing on what Epps called their “religiosity” to cope.

Says Robert Reid: “The beautiful thing about the Word is that

it is in us. We are able to pull on it for stability and comfort during everything thing we are going through.”

Epps’s Faith Village team went in search of Black churches and faith leaders who could collaborate on creating “culturally relevant programs to support African Americans living with dementia and their caregivers. They sought “trailblazers and churches that were ready to break the silence and commit to creating dementia-friendly and inclusive environments.”

It proved to be a tall order. “What I found working in the Black community were faith leaders who were unable to respond to the needs of families” living with dementia and those caring for them because they didn’t know how and didn’t understand the disease, says Epps. In a quick primer with those pastors, she says she describes dementia as “a big umbrella term for over 70 types of dementia, with vascular dementia being the one that African Americans develop the most.” Vascular dementia is the second most common type of dementia after Alzheimer’s. It’s caused by obstructions in blood flow to the brain.

But what may be the most impactful point in the conversation is when Epps reminds those faith leaders that those living with dementia and the people caring for them, are among the members sitting in their pews.

Honoring leaders giving back to their communities During Black History Month, AARP recognizes leaders taking action to give back and help build up their communities.

Hope Harley, Cofounder and President of the Board of Directors at the Bronx Children’s Museum, educates children in the area on the borough’s notable places, cultures, and history through dance, art, literature and science.

AARP believes the efforts of one person can truly make an impact. But when our efforts drive change for the greater good, we thrive together.

So, instead of a conversation here and a church lecture there, Epps created the Alter program. Its purpose is to educate and prepare Black faith communities that want to create welcoming and supportive places of worship for “anyone, regardless of their cognitive abilities,” according to a description on the program’s website. While the concept and practice of dementia-friendly places of worship is not new in the United States, Alter, “a nurse-led dementia collaborative,” is considered “the only program of its kind that engages African American congregations in supporting family caregivers and people living with dementia.”

Among Black families, the need for such a program was great, says Epps. “While conducting research with Black families living with dementia, I heard their stories. They felt the church, the one place they thought they could always count on, abandoned them.

That’s when I said, let me talk to pastors to see what’s going on.”

One of the first she approached about her then idea, was her own pastor, Bishop Glenn B. Allen, who pastors Destiny Christian Center International in Fayetteville, Georgia. As he listened closely to Epps describe her long nursing practice that included caring for patients living with dementia and her research work on dementia at Emory, Bishop Allen says he realized that she was providing a snapshot of an uncle he knew as a child.

“We just thought he was crazy, back then, but I know now that he was going through dementia. We didn’t have a name for it or education about how to care for him,” recalls Bishop Allen. “If we did, maybe things would have been a lot different.” He and his church leaders are completing the two-year Alter program that launched in July 2019, in partnership with Georgia State University. Bishop Allen also is the pastor who leads the Faith Village online worship services.

Promoting dementia awareness and brain health among African Americans is work that Epps often calls “her purpose.” Looking forward, she says, “It is my hope and prayer that Black families will speak up and feel more comfortable seeking support from the church and vice versa—the church will feel more equipped and comfortable supporting families living with dementia.”

This is the first in an occasional series of stories by B. Denise Hawkins on aging and African Americans living with dementia. This article was written with the support of a journalism fellowship from The Gerontological Society of America, The Journalists Network on Generations and the John A. Hartford Foundation.

‘FIRSTHAND: SEGREGATION’ Launches Feb. 22 Chicago is one of the most segregated big cities in America, and it comes at a cost. The Metropolitan Planning Council found that segregation costs the region $4.4 billion in lost income, 83,000 fewer bachelor’s degrees, and about 200 lives cut short by homicides every year. Throughout 2022, WTTW’s FIRSTHAND: SEGREGATION initiative will put a human face on the impact racial divisions have on individuals, the city, and our region. Watch the trailer.

FIRSTHAND: SEGREGATION is part of the award-winning FIRSTHAND multiplatform, multi-year initiative focusing on the firsthand perspectives of people facing critical issues in Chicago.

Visit the website (wttw.com/firsthand) on Tuesday, Feb. 22, to explore the elements of the project, which include: · A documentary series following fifteen Chicagoans affected by segregation. · Six expert talks by community and thought leaders offering insights, historical context, and possible solutions. · Text and visual journalism exploring housing, education, policing, and the history of segregation in Chicago. · Community conversations with thought leaders and project participants extending the reach of the project into Chicago neighborhoods. · Companion discussion guide for schools, libraries, and other community organizations. · WTTW News/Chicago Tonight special news coverage.

“As a public media organization, it’s our responsibility to respond to the issues that matter most to the people and communities in our city and region with trusted, essential content,” said Sandra Cordova Micek, President and CEO of WTTW. “Through personal stories and experiences, FIRSTHAND: SEGREGATION will provide an up-close view of an issue in our society and culture that has plagued Chicago for decades.”

“Segregation insinuates itself into just about every aspect of our lives in Chicago, including our housing, education, healthcare, and economy,” said executive producer Dan Protess. “This project unpacks how these divisions are taking a toll on Chicago through the firsthand perspectives of its residents, and by spotlighting the many ways in which Chicagoans are seeking to disrupt segregation.”

WTTW News Special: At 7:00 pm on the night of the project launch, February 22, WTTW’s flagship news program Chicago Tonight will present a WTTW News special episode dedicated to the topic of segregation in Chicago.

Modern, Interoperable Data Systems Needed to Address Health Threats ATLANTA PRNewswire -- The COVID-19 pandemic has placed a bright spotlight on the nation’s public health infrastructure and underscored the need for investment in and development of comprehensive, flexible and interoperable data systems to track and address both chronic health challenges as well as future infectious disease outbreaks. Last week, organizations and individuals representing a variety of sectors gathered for the second summit in the Lights, Camera, Action: The Future of Public Health summit series to discuss the critical topic of data modernization and its link to better health outcomes for all.

“Our ultimate goal is to move from siloed and brittle public health data systems to connected, resilient, adaptable and sustainable ‘response-ready’ systems,” said Daniel B. Jernigan, MD, MPH, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) deputy director for Public Health Science and Surveillance. “Having these systems in place can help us solve problems before they happen and reduce the harm caused by the problems that do happen, whether it’s addressing longstanding issues like health equity or preparing our nation for the next infectious or non-infectious threat.”

Jernigan noted that progress is being made in the public health community in this regard compared to before the COVID-19 pandemic, with now more than 10,300 healthcare facilities using electronic case reporting versus 187 previously. In addition, he said that data pipelines have advanced to inform action on the part of public health professionals with more than 530 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines being tracked in just over a year and clinical and environmental labs now sharing more than 1.5 million results per day with CDC. But much work remains, ranging from improvements needed in how the public, public health, healthcare and other sectors use new technologies to creating standards and future-forward data systems that enable real-time and actionable intelligence in service to the public’s health.
