Free Nationwide Spanish-language Program for Families Affected by Addiction

September 19, 2020

The nation's largest nonprofit treatment organization.

Hazelden Betty Ford virtual Family Program expands reach

CENTER CITY, Minnesota, Sept. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — With addiction and mental health needs growing amid the pandemic and social strife nationwide, the nonprofit Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation has launched a Spanish-language version of its educational and support program for families—accessible everywhere at no cost right in the home.

The new one-day Spanish Family Program will ensure Spanish-speaking families have access to tools that have helped thousands of families on their journey to recovery. It is open to all; participants do not need to have a family member in treatment.

With language and culture inextricably intertwined, the program will be similar to the English version with modifications in language and in content: such as omitting what can be construed as culturally offensive language, and implementing a heavier emphasis on addiction as a disease.

“Addiction is something that isn’t really talked about in our culture,” said Cynthia Galaviz-Olivas, PsyD, bilingual co-lead of the new program and also supervisor of the Children’s Program at the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif. “To give them the language they need, to really open up the door to communication—even if their loved one doesn’t yet recognize they have a problem—is crucial.”

Delivered as part of Hazelden Betty Ford’s RecoveryGo behavioral health service, the virtual program is based on the nonprofit addiction treatment leader’s world-class on-site family program and recognizes that when one family member has a substance use disorder, everyone is affected. Creating a sense of community within the family program so that participants can trust the process and those involved, will be key.

“We hope to include a lot of interaction and discussion,” said Galaviz-Olivas, who added she sometimes recounts her own family’s story with addiction to help build that important sense of trust. “It’s about encouraging them to find their voice and share with one another, and to let them know that we’re all in this together.”

“We created our English-language virtual Family Program because we wanted to be able to reach more parents, spouses, siblings and other loved ones who are caught up in the complicated pain and confusion that addiction so often brings to families, and we made it free so we could cultivate a sense of healing and hope for everyone, regardless of socio-economic status,” added John Driscoll, Hazelden Betty Ford’s senior vice president of recovery services. “By expanding the program more inclusively to those who speak Spanish, we will reach even more people affected by addiction across the nation.”

Anyone interested in participating in the virtual family program can register at hazeldenbettyford.org/familia.

About the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation
The Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is a force of healing and hope for individuals, families and communities affected by addiction to alcohol and other drugs. As the nation’s leading nonprofit provider of comprehensive inpatient and outpatient addiction and co-occurring mental health treatment for adults and youth, the Foundation has 17 locations nationwide, with expansive on-site and telehealth solutions and a network of collaborators throughout health care. With a legacy that began in 1949 and includes the 1982 founding of the Betty Ford Center, the Foundation today also encompasses a graduate school of addiction studies, a publishing division, an addiction research center, recovery advocacy and thought leadership, professional and medical education programs, school-based prevention resources and a specialized program for children who grow up in families with addiction.

National Geographic and Mazda Announce “Assignment: Inspiration” Competition Winner

September 18, 2020

IRVINE, California, Sept. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Last night, National Geographic and Mazda closed the first-of-its-kind photography-based competition, Assignment: Inspiration. Sam Tippetts was announced the winner and next great National Geographic storyteller on a special that aired on National Geographic.

The Assignment: Inspiration program began with a contest shared through the National Geographic Your Shot Instagram account, inviting emerging photographers to tell a visual story about where they find inspiration. Mazda launched this competition as part of its Power of Potential platform, which honors individuals making a difference, realizing their potential and ultimately inspiring others.

From those submissions, National Geographic and Mazda selected three storytellers to compete in a series of photography quests. These challenges were inspired by an exploration of Hiroshima, Japan that National Geographic photographer and Assignment: Inspiration mentor David Guttenfelder experienced with Mazda. On the journey, Guttenfelder took in the city’s heritage to gain a deeper understanding of Mazda’s design values: Takumi craftsmanship, ingenuity and passion for uplifting others.

The three Assignment: Inspiration finalists Nina Mayer Ritchie, Beth Mancuso and Sam Tippetts created amazing, uplifting photographs. In the end Tippetts, a young, intrepid photographer from Boerne, TX was declared the winner.

“Throughout the quests, Sam’s devotion to visual storytelling resonated with us,” Mazda North American Operations CMO Brad Audet said. “Mazda’s designers and engineers have a similar approach to their work as artisans who seek mastery of their skills. They diligently transfer their passion, into each project to create a vehicle that evokes a feeling.”

Tippetts officially becomes the next Mazda Content Partner and National Geographic storyteller with an official assignment for National Geographic Travel where his original work will be published on National Geographic Travel’s digital platforms.

“Photography is the heart of National Geographic, and an essential part of our 132-year legacy of telling stories that matter,” said George Stone, Executive Editor of National Geographic Travel. “Seeing the next generation of visual storytellers use their talents to inspire people to care more about the planet inspires us. We are excited to see where Sam takes his assignment, and we look forward to sharing the results on our National Geographic Travel platforms.”

Produced through National Geographic CreativeWorks, the branded content studio for National Geographic and part of Disney CreativeWorks, with Radley Studios, the competition had cross-platform promotion with unrivaled reach across National Geographic’s social and digital properties, including digital video and social components, spotlighting the photographers competing in the contest. The partnership reached more than 225 million U.S. fans and followers of National Geographic’s social and digital social properties.

Princeton University alumni Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano make history with major gift

September 18, 2020

PRINCETON, New Jersey, Sept. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano have made a major gift to Princeton University, a $20 million contribution that is the largest gift to date by Black and Latino donors, and one of a few extraordinary alumni commitments to the University’s strategic goal of undergraduate expansion, with the construction of two adjoining dormitories in one of the two new residential colleges being built at Princeton. In recognition of their philanthropy and leadership, the University will name two buildings in their honor. One of the dormitories will be named for Jones, a member of the Class of 1993, and the other will be named for her husband, Feliciano, a member of the Class of 1994.

“Kwanza and José bring strong values and deep dedication to their philanthropy as well as their work as volunteer leaders on behalf of the University, and I am deeply grateful for their extraordinary commitment to Princeton,” President Christopher L. Eisgruber said. “Their generosity makes possible new dormitories that are essential to Princeton’s future. Through their visionary gift, Kwanza and José are enabling us to increase the number of outstanding undergraduates we admit and to attract and support talented students from all backgrounds. In addition to supporting the expansion of the undergraduate population, which is among the University’s highest priorities, this historic gift from Kwanza and José diversifies Princeton’s institutional narrative in meaningful ways by weaving their names, identities and experiences into our shared campus tapestry. As we strive to make Princeton a fully inclusive community, we are fortunate to have their partnership.”

The new colleges — scheduled to open for the 2022-23 academic year — will allow Princeton to expand the undergraduate student body by about 10% while providing flexibility so that other campus housing can be renovated or replaced. The addition of approximately 500 undergraduates allows the University to admit more talented students who will realize the benefits of a Princeton education, enhance the diversity and vitality of the campus community, and contribute to society after their graduations.

“We see this gift as the color of commitment. It celebrates the many contributions to Princeton’s legacy from its diverse students and alumni making a tremendous impact in the world,” Jones said. “It represents what it means for us to individually and collectively thrive. It demonstrates that people of color belong in the room and sit at the table as patrons and co-creators to help the University to continue to do the work of service to humanity. Most importantly, during this time of national reckoning on race and racial injustice, it highlights the benefits that diversity, inclusion and belonging can bring. Princeton is a microcosm of America; we’re modeling that working together makes us all stronger moving forward.”

Eisgruber recently wrote to the University community about steps the University administration will take to make Princeton fully inclusive and to address systemic racism at Princeton and beyond.

Said Feliciano: “Kwanza and I are committed not only to continuing Princeton’s tradition of excellence in academia but also in making sure that we can make that available to more deserving students who represent a cross section of our society. We recognize that our Princeton education and network have had a fundamental impact on our career path and success. As such, we hope that our gift can be used to continue providing access to education and opportunity to many others, and we hope to inspire other alumni, including alumni of color, to give and be even more active stakeholders of the Princeton community.”

About Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano

Jones is an artist, investor, lawyer and entrepreneur who founded SUPERCHARGED, a media company that specializes in self-development and hosts a community-driven platform. Feliciano is the founder and a managing partner of Clearlake Capital Group, a private investment firm that he co-founded in 2006. In 2014, Jones and Feliciano co-founded the Kwanza Jones & José E. Feliciano SUPERCHARGED Initiative (KJSI), a high-impact philanthropic grant-making and investment organization.

Lorena Samano’s new book “Unseen Worlds” is an enchanting tale of a young girl with the power to see the supernatural world and its creatures.

September 18, 2020

NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Recent release “Unseen Worlds” from Page Publishing author Lorena Samano is a bewitching story about a young girl with a supernatural sight that lets her see invisible realms as well as good and evil beings.

Lorena Samano, a passionate author with a Mexican heritage, has completed her new book “Unseen Worlds”: an awe-inspiring novel about Scarlett, a young girl with the power of seeing invisible things that make her life an otherworldly journey.

Author Samano tells about the unseen battle between good and evil that is ever-present since time immemorial: “A beautiful girl named Scarlett was abandoned in a mysterious orphanage and suffers from a tragic ailment—her skin is ultrasensitive to light. She spends much of her childhood indoors at the ancient castle even as she longs to go outside to play with her friends.

Born with a unique gift that allows her to see what others cannot, her eyes open to the supernatural. She experiences visions of angels, shadowy demons, and other mysterious beings hidden from those around her.

Living in the castle, she notices strange figures; weird, monstrously shaped shadows; and disembodied voices. But she also sees enchanting things that make her forget the shadows.

Along the way, Scarlett witnesses many battles between the forces of good and evil. Though she is tempted by darkness along the way, her pure heart always brings her back from the brink of losing her soul.

She tries to unravel the mystery of the noble family that lived many years ago in the castle and the secrets they hold.

As time passes, Scarlett discovers that her gift is not only to view the supernatural. It is more powerful than she imagines, but her true desire is to someday be part of a family that loves her.

Does she really see the supernatural world, or is it all just in her imagination?”

Published by Page Publishing, Lorena Samano’s exquisite opus invites readers to an adventure where imagination and reality collide that greatly transforms a young girl’s life.

Readers who wish to experience this noteworthy work can purchase “Unseen Worlds” at bookstores everywhere or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
