NEWS briefly EDUCATION

CTU: WE MUST DO BETTER IN PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN The Chicago Teachers Union is calling for an independent task force of parents, students, clinicians, teachers, union leaders, administrators and outside experts to address issues of sexual abuse in Chicago public schools – and to devise policies that will create safer school communities. The CTU is also renewing its call for more school clinicians, who are trained explicitly to address issues related to physical, sexual and emotional abuse of children. “School nurses and social workers are specially trained in how to handle sexual abuse,” said school social worker and CTU member Emily Penn, “but we have too few clinicians to support students, teachers and staff – less than 150 certified school nurses and only 170 counselors to cover over 600 schools. Much of our time is bound up with the burden of special education paperwork. That’s not enough to get students and staff the support they need, at the same time that we deal with real shortcomings in administrative follow-up or reporting on outcomes.”

HEALTH

2018 HEALTHY CHICAGO 2.0 COMMUNITY SEED GRANTS AWARDED Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) Commissioner Dr. Julie Morita and the Public Health Institute of Metropolitan Chicago (PHIMC) recently announced the recipients of the 2018 Healthy Chicago 2.0 Community Seed Grants. The $150,000 grant was presented to four community-based organizations to improve health equity and support communitydriven change in North and South Lawndale. This year’s funding supports a vision for local change, developed and led by the community. Last year, Mayor Emanuel and CDPH awarded $175,000 to five community groups that addressed the conditions that promote heath in Austin, Armour Square, Englewood, Chicago Lawn and Gage Park. Community groups worked to improve access to social services, healthy food and safe public spaces.

LAW & POLITICS

HB4922 PASSES BOTH CHAMBERS, AWAITS GOVERNOR’S SIGNATURE SPRINGFIELD – Illinois State Treasurer Michael

Frerichs recently called on Governor Bruce Rauner to sign House Bill 4922 into law to put a stop to companies that issue rebate cards that charge dormancy or inactivity fees and avoid unclaimed property laws. House Bill 4922 recently passed the Illinois House and Senate with bipartisan support. The legislation amends the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act to prohibit the sale or issuance of a rebate card that charges dormancy fees and almost all other postissuance fees. The legislation was sponsored by Senator Cristina Castro (D-Elgin) and Representative Theresa Mah (D-Chicago).

So Fresh Saturday Returns To Take Over Englewood’s Parks For A Sixth Year Continued from page 1 BY KATHERINE NEWMAN

n Chicago’s Englewood community, So Fresh Saturdays are in full swing and the next installment will be held on June 16 from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Moran Park, 5727 S. Racine. The community event is open to the public and offers free food, live music, information from community resource providers, giveaways, and fun for all ages. So Fresh Saturday is presented by the Residents Association of Greater Englewood (RAGE). RAGE provides a voice to the residents of Englewood through meetings, events, forums, and conferences. There are over 300 members of RAGE who gather at bi-monthly meetings to collaborate and create strategies to create a better Englewood community. “We just recently just started calling it Englewood’s Coachella because it is the only place in Englewood, especially public and outdoors, that you will have a schedule

of local artists performing. No other place can do this in Englewood, especially during summer time when unfortunately there is heightened gun violence. That fact, at times, can prevent people or residents from engaging in their community in a way that we would all love to so what So Fresh Saturday does is kind of creates that healing, fun, and peaceful place for people to do it,” said Tonika Johnson, co-founder and program manager for RAGE. This is the sixth year that RAGE has presented So Fresh Saturday and it takes place every other Saturday at parks all across the Englewood Community. “Everyone loves it. Kids are always dancing at So Fresh Saturday, it is really their space to be free and be open. Adults might come with children and then they will be able to have access to resource providers that are talking at So Fresh Saturdays from school to health centers to other youth summer programs. It’s really a variety of resource providers that we have at So Fresh Saturday so everyone is usually really excited about,” said Johnson.

In Englewood, So Fresh Saturday serves as a way to reclaim public space and parks with four hours of intergenerational family-oriented fun, peace, food, music, and dancing for the community. A highlight of the event, for Johnson, is the presence of local artists who perform and showcase their talents at So Fresh Saturdays. “I just love seeing the local artists who want to perform at what is basically a small community event. Even though it’s large to Englewood, it’s still a small community event and it shows me that there are so many young artists out there who are in need and in search of a platform to share their form of artistic expression and I’m happy that So Fresh Saturdays could be that,” said Johnson. There is an ongoing call for artists who want to get involved in So Fresh Saturdays. RAGE is inviting dance groups, singers, rappers, poets, and other types of performers to join in the So Fresh Saturday celebration. For more information artists can e-mail sofreshartists@gmail.com or call 866845-1032.

NEWS Janice Lopez Discusses the Impact of Early Childhood Education Businesses, WBDC’s Upcoming Expo and the Organization’s Support of Women-Owned Businesses BY LISETTE GUSHINIERE

CSTW: What challenges does the WBDC help women entrepreneurs overcome when they are establishing/ maintaining their businesses? Please speak to this both in terms of entrepreneurs who work in the child care industry and as it pertains to entrepreneurs in general?

he Women’s Business Development Center (WBDC) will host its 20th annual Early Childhood Education Entrepreneurship Expo on Saturday, June 16, 2018 from 8:00am2:00pm. Rise Up: From Educator to Entrepreneur! focuses on building the foundations of child care businesses in Chicagoland. Expo is presented in Spanish and English and is the only event of its kind in the Chicago area that offers state-ofthe-art and industry-specific business guidance and resources to prospective and established early childhood education entrepreneurs. Highlights include workshops on increasing safety in businesses and orchestrating excellence through hiring, and the opportunity for childcare providers to complete the continuing education credits required to maintain their license. Founded in 1986, the WBDC has been in operation for more than 31 years. In this Q & A, the Citizen Suburban Times Weekly and Janice Lopez, managing director of entrepreneurial services at the Women’s Business Development Center.(WBDC) discuss the impact of early childhood education businesses, the upcoming expo and the organization’s support of womenowned businesses. CSTW: Besides this event, can you speak about other initiatives WBDC is currently involved in? What are some of the services you provide? JL: The Women’s Business

Development Center (WBDC) is a 501 (c)(3) and a nationally recognized leader in the field of women’s economic development. The organization was founded in 1986 to provide services and programs to support and accelerate women’s business ownership and strengthen the impact of women on the economy by creating jobs, fueling economic growth and building strong communities. The mission of the Women’s Business Development Center (WBDC) is to support and accelerate business development and growth, targeting women and serving all diverse business owners, in order to strengthen their participation in, and impact on, the economy. In Illinois, the WBDC offers: •C apacity building to scale businesses to compete in the

marketplace • Technical assistance, financial support, direct lending and debt equity placement • Woman Business Enterprise (WBE) certification • Corporate and public sector procurement opportunities. Along with our annual Expo, the WBDC offers our Early Childhood Education Entrepreneurship Program year-round. The program supports the availability of more safe, affordable, and quality childcare for working mothers by helping early childcare entrepreneurs establish or expand their operations. It also creates a path to self-employment for those exploring this industry. CSTW: Explain in your view how women entrepreneurs impact the global economy? How are women entrepreneurs making an impact specifically in Chicago? JL: Entrepreneurship is on the rise

and does not show signs of slowing down anytime soon. According to the Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index, the United

States ranks first out of 138 countries for cultivating the best environment for business owners. An even bigger achievement is that nearly 11.3 million of those businesses are owned by women. According to American Express, women-owned businesses account for nearly 40% of the U.S. workforce, employ 8% of the private sector and contribute 4.2% of all revenues. Women entrepreneurs also significantly impact the employment growth rate, with women-owned businesses being stronger than all other businesses at 27% vs. 13%. Female entrepreneurs and business owners are innovating industries, empowering employees, and improving local communities. Specifically, through the child care industry, Chicago entrepreneurs are providing valuable resources to help combat the child care deserts - meaning a neighborhood either lacking any childcare options or with so few child care providers that there are more than three children for every licensed child care slot – in Chicago’s low- to moderate-income neighborhoods. www.thechicagocitizen.com

CSTW: Do you have any statistics on the number of women owned businesses in Chicago? JL: As of 2017, minorities accounted

for 46% of all women-owned businesses. In the City of Chicago, females are 51.48% of the total population, and based on the most current information of the U.S. Census, there are over 300,000 businesses in the City of Chicago of which over 123,000 are womenowned firms. . CSTW: Are your services specific to a certain geographical area or do you work with entrepreneurs outside of Chicago? JL: The WBDC serves a nine-state

region with three offices in the Chicagoland area, including its headquarters in Chicago, and four other satellite offices across the Midwest. Most of our programming and resources are offered to business owners and entrepreneurs in the state of Illinois (for example, their Early Childhood Education

owners navigate through a variety of challenges at every stage of a business’ life cycle. For instance, we provide oneon-one business advising to those just starting out, professional development seminars for business owners looking to take their business to the next level, and access to resource partners and other special programming for established businesses. Our Early Childhood Education Entrepreneurship Expo provides the opportunity for business owners to receive professional development credit which is vital to growing and maintaining a child care business. Also, for women who are just starting out in business, we provide our Developing Your Child Care Business series, which focuses on business operations and also enables them to earn up to 16 hours of INCCRRA/Gateway credit. As for entrepreneurs in general, one of the challenges we see time and time again is access to capital. At the WBDC, our Access to Capital program provides business owners with financial assessment, counseling, loan application assistance, direct lending and more. For instance, we educate business owners on how to prepare a profit and loss statement, or the importance of crowdfunding and equity treatment. We also inform them of what documentation is required for a loan application, or how to differentiate between potential sources of capital. As the Midwest’s regional partner for the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), the country’s largest third-party certifier of women business enterprises (WBEs), we help local women business owners compete for contracts through Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) certification. From entrepreneurs to established business owners to supplier diversity leaders and community partners, we’ve built a network through which certified WBEs can learn and innovate together while accessing our diverse group of corporate and government Continued on page 5

NEWS Janice Lopez Discusses the Impact of Early Childhood Education Businesses Continued from page 3 partners that are eager to work with diverse suppliers. CSTW: How are entrepreneurs who are providing quality child care having an impact? Why are these services important? JL: One of the many entrepreneurial

areas in which we’ve seen womenbusiness owners thrive is the child care industry. In fact, America’s Small Business Development Center estimates that the U.S. child care services industry contributes $20 billion to the nation’s economy, which is why we offer specific programming related to starting and maintaining a child care business. These services are critical for Chicago communities – especially low- to moderate-income neighborhoods. In Chicago and Cook County, 38% of children live in single-parent households, which makes reliable child care even more important. Without safe and affordable child care, parents in Chicago cannot work and support their families.

There is a lot of emphasis on making sure kids have access to early childhood education during the ages of 0-3 because that is a crucial time for their development. When business owners are given support to manage a sound business they can, in turn, invest in our children. Providing a solution to child care issues can mitigate a number of economic hardships for working families.

Receiving child care assistance is linked to increased earnings and months worked. The more child care businesses that are readily available, the more it helps women overall because moms can go back to school or work, or start their own businesses, giving them the opportunity to earn more money to support their families.

CSTW: What trends are you seeing, if any, in the child care services profession?

CSTW: Please explain some of the goals of the upcoming WBDC’s 20th annual early childhood education entrepreneurship expo. What are you planning to accomplish?

JL: According to a recent study by

JL: At the Women’s Business

the Center for American Progress, in Chicago, 5 out of 6 children under the age of 5 live in child care deserts – meaning a neighborhood either lacking any child care options or with so few child care providers that there are more than three children for every licensed child care slot. For those reasons, we want to bring more attention and awareness to the importance of the child care industry. We’ve also seen research that proves mothers are more likely to leave their job and less likely to start a new job to address child care concerns.

Development Center (WBDC), our main priority is the economic empowerment of women- and minority-owned businesses and we work with entrepreneurs at all levels to help them succeed. Expo is one way we hope to inspire hardworking child care providers to continue or expand their services or entrepreneurs considering child care to fuel their own economic empowerment. We hope the event gives them the tools they need to succeed. Our annual Expo focuses on building the foundations of child care

businesses in the Chicagoland area to support the increased availability of more safe, affordable and quality child care for working families by helping early child care entrepreneurs establish or expand their operations. This drives our ultimate mission of strengthening the communities we serve. We also hope business owners will use this opportunity to earn some of their continuing education credits so they can remain in good standing to provide this valuable child care service to their community.

Debra Lee to Step Down as Chairman & CEO at BET Networks NEW YORK – After a trailblazing career in

television and entertainment spanning over 30 years at BET Networks, a unit of Viacom Inc. (NASDAQ: VIA, VIA.B sted NYSE: VIA, VIA.B) Debra Lee stepped down from her position as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BET Networks, on May 28, 2018. Lee, who began her career with the company as its first VP and General Counsel in 1986, was elevated to President and COO in 1996 and became Chairman and CEO in 2005. Lee’s determination to make a real difference and give back greatly influenced BET Networks’ reinvigorated approach to developing authentic programming that both entertains and inspires the African-American community. During Lee’s time at the helm, the network has enjoyed record-breaking success, including the 2014 series premiere of “The Game,” the most-watched sitcom premiere in cable TV history with 7.68 million viewers, and the 2017

hit mini-series “The New Edition Story,” which brought in 28.4 million viewers from the initial run through subsequent encores, making it the highest-rated TV biopic of all time. On Lee’s watch she oversaw the launch of the Network’s website, BET.com, developed BET Her, the first network for African-American women, and acquired television rights to “BLACK GIRLS ROCK”!™ Lee also launched Leading Women Defined, an annual conference where notable African American women, including Former First Lady Michelle Obama, Venus Williams, Issa Rae and Erykah Badu, to name a few, gathered each year for insightful debates and conversations on issues that impact their community and families. Additionally, she championed BET’s breast cancer campaign “BET Goes Pink,” the education platform “BET Next Level,” awardwinning voting campaign “BET Vote Your Voice” and several telethons for Florida, Haiti and Katrina under the “SOS: Saving OurSelves”

initiative. Lee’s focus on diverse, high-quality scripted programming that positively highlights the African-American experience has set BET Networks apart from other brands desperate to reach the coveted black audience. Shows such as “Being Mary Jane,” “The Real Husbands of Hollywood,” and “In Contempt” have helped BET Networks remain the #1 network among African-American viewers for the past 17

years. Lee’s commitment to music and live entertainment led to the creation of one of the most popular award shows on television, “The BET Awards,” as well as the launch of the first festival weekend under the Viacom umbrella, The BET Experience. Her impact on the music industry led her to become the first woman to date to receive the Recording Academy’s prestigious Salute to Industry Icons Award. Following her departure from the company, Lee, a well-respected industry executive, plans to stay involved in the media industry and continue her role on corporate and non-profit boards. In addition, Lee also plans to continue her commitment to diversity and inclusion by advancing the rights of women and girls as well as people of color through her work with Times Up and The Recording Academy Diversity & Inclusion Task Force, to name a few. Lee’s annual gathering of prominent African American women, Leading Women Defined, will also continue under her leadership.

FASHION Men’s Health Week Celebrated Up Until Father’s Day, Campaign Encourages People to Wear Blue to Raise More Awareness

une is recognized as Men’s Health Month, an annual awareness period solely dedicated to education and activities on the health and wellness of men and boys. This year, Men’s Health Week will be celebrated up until Father’s Day on June 17th. During this time, health care professionals, private corporations, faithbased community organizations, and government agencies, plan activities that focus on the health and well-being of boys, men, and their families. Men’s Health Month is built on the pillars of Awareness–Prevention– Education–Family. “Awareness periods like Men’s Health Month are crucial in helping to educate the public on health issues and health disparities impacting men,” said Ana Fadich, VP of Men’s Health Network. “Men continue to suffer from chronic illness and lower insurance rates than women. Men are also less likely to seek out mental health services than women. Support for Men’s Health Month from policymakers, state and federal legislators, the media, and our private and non-profit partners can help fight these systemic issues and save lives.” “Health and safety are important in any workplace, particularly for men working physically demanding jobs. They are more prone to workplace injuries and it’s important for them to be aware of their health and engage their medical providers,” said Todd Washam, Director of Industry and External Relations Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). “Men’s Health Month is a great awareness and education period to encourage men to make their health a priority. Just like your car is triggered to remind you when it’s time to change your oil or get serviced, the month of June should serve as a mental trigger for men to get their body checked,” said Jamin Brahmbhatt , MD, a urologist and advisor to MHN. “June is the perfect time for men to stop thinking and start getting screened for medical conditions that can be easily prevented and caught early. When it comes to your prostate health and overall wellness it’s better to get check now then wait until it’s too late.” This has been a pivotal year for men’s health. In May, a federal health task finalized new recommendations impacting prostate cancer screenings for men and MHN partnered with advocacy organizations to debrief legislative staff on the new recommendations to offer comments. MHN held a briefing on opioid addiction and men’s employment; as

well as another briefing on how the crisis continues to impact men’s mental health and wellness. “Awareness and early intervention are both key in preventing most chronic diseases impacting men, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and many types of cancer. Annual activities that promote awareness like Men’s Health Month are crucial in initiating conversations and leading men to be more engaged in their health,” said Jean Bonhomme, MD, Founder of the National Black Men’s Health Network. “Making men healthier can only lead to improved health for families and communities.” Over 300 mayors and governors across the country recognize June as Men’s Health Month with official proclamations. The proclamations are displayed in Congress and reports on the status of the health and well-being of boys and men in each state are available at the State of Men’s Health web site. Free resources are available in both English and Spanish at www. MensHealthMonth.com A key part of the continued momentum is the annual event and social media campaign, including: • Congress joins the celebration with a Congressional Workout, planned for June 14 • Men’s Health Month Twitter Chat is scheduled for June 27 at 2 PM EST • #ShowUsYourBlue campaign: People all over the world take pictures of themselves and others wearing blue to increase awareness for men’s health • The #ShowUsYourBlue social media storm is on Wear Blue Friday, June 15, the Friday of Men’s Health Week Men’s Health Month and Men’s Health Week are sponsored by Men’s Health Network (MHN), which maintains a list of experts and spokespersons on all areas of male health and wellness, including fatherhood issues. Men’s Health Month supporters include Sanofi-Regeneron, Allergan Foundation, and Pfizer, Inc. Men’s Health Network (MHN) is an international non-profit organization whose mission is to reach men, boys, and their families where they live, work, play, and pray with health awareness messages and tools, screening programs, educational materials, advocacy opportunities, and patient navigation.

For Father’s Day This Year, Let a Personal Stylist Come to Dad NEW YORK – It’s a no brainer that the retail

market has been going through drastic changes over the past 10 years. Stores are competing with the continuous growth in online sales. One of the biggest factors contributing to this market shift is the convenience that online shopping brings to its consumers. Companies are brainstorming on ways they can bring customers back into the stores and make their shopping experience easier. Stores know they have something that online doesn’t, people and the actual product. Another shift in the consumer market is the
