New PSAs focus on the importance of adopting teenagers from foster care

September 21, 2017

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — New public service advertisements (PSAs) launched today by the Children’s Bureau at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in partnership with the Ad Council, AdoptUSKids and KBS, highlight the importance of adopting teens from foster care and emphasize that adoptive and potential adoptive parents do not have to be a perfect parent in order to adopt youth from foster care.

Experience the interactive Multichannel News Release here: https://www.multivu.com/players/English/8177151-ad-council-adoptuskids-adoption-foster-care/

Older children in foster care, particularly teenagers, have a hard time being adopted from foster care. Of the estimated 428,000 youth in the U.S. foster care system, 112,000 youth are currently waiting for adoptive families.

“All of us – and that includes teens in foster care who are waiting to be adopted – need and want families to support us and to give us the connections, relationships, and sense of belonging that are so critical to our well-being,” said Jerry Milner, associate commissioner at the Children’s Bureau, and the acting commissioner for the Administration on Children, Youth and Families.

The PSAs feature the theme of “What to Expect When You’re Expecting… A Teenager” to recognize that being there for a teenager is the most important role that an adoptive parent can play as well as encouraging the adoption of teens from foster care.

“The parents and families who adopt older teens from foster care enrich their own lives while providing an incredible impact on the lives of the adopted children and teens at a time when it is needed most,” said Milner. “We are proud to sponsor the Adoption from Foster Care campaign to encourage adoptions of teens nationwide.”

KBS collaborated with the authors and illustrator of “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” on the PSAs, which include TV, out-of-home, print and digital materials. The PSAs feature videos of well-intentioned moms and dads attempting to give new parents of teens step-by-step parenting tutorials in the What to Expect When You’re Expecting tone – namely how to wake up your teen and how to teen-proof your home. The print, digital and out-of-home creative parodies the original book cover and illustrations by humorously showing common scenarios parents can expect when adopting a teen, such as confusing text messages, binge-watching and prom proposals.

“We’re excited to infuse this very successful campaign with the cultural relevance of What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” said Michele Kunken, Executive Creative Director at KBS. “We were really lucky that the authors of What to Expect When You’re Expecting were so passionate about this cause and were willing to partner with us. We’re hoping this new take on the ‘Perfect Parent’ campaign will bring AdoptUSKids even more awareness and lead to even more adoptions from foster care.”

The Children’s Bureau provides funding to AdoptUSKids to raise public awareness about the need for families for children in foster care, and assist states, territories and tribes to recruit and retain foster and adoptive families and connect them with children.

The Ad Council will distribute the new PSAs to media outlets nationwide this week. Per the Ad Council’s model, the PSAs will run in time and space donated by the media. Since the initial launch of the campaign in 2004, the campaign has received more than $565 million in donated media support across television, radio, print, out-of-home and digital media.

The PSAs direct audiences to visit AdoptUSKids.org or to call 1-888-200-4005 (English) or 1-877-236-7831 (Spanish) to receive information about the foster care system and the adoption process.

“The many thousands of teens in foster care are there at no fault of their own and are just as in need of family as anyone,” said Lisa Sherman, president and CEO of the Ad Council. “This project has already helped more than 28,000 youth find their forever families and experience the many milestones teens first encounter. We hope that this new work inspires prospective parents to consider adopting teens from foster care and become the pillar of stability and love every teen needs.”

Chronicled and The LinkLab Announce The MediLedger Project, a Revolutionary Blockchain-backed System to Safeguard the Pharmaceutical Industry

September 21, 2017

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Chronicled, Inc. and The LinkLab LLC today announced The MediLedger Project, a joint venture that will explore and develop blockchain solutions for the pharmaceutical industry. The project is primarily aimed at demonstrating compliance with the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), utilizing innovative capabilities found with blockchain technology to track and trace prescription medicines. The project seeks to demonstrate the ability to prevent counterfeit medicines from entering the supply chain. The DSCSA requires the industry to adopt an “interoperable system” to manage records of ownership and transfer of prescription drugs in the United States, and they feel strongly that blockchain technology could be best suited to do this.

Blockchain offers a number of unique advantages over older technologies. Every time an asset is registered, verified, or transferred on a blockchain, a distributed network of validation “nodes” come to consensus, making it exceedingly difficult for malicious actors to fabricate or tamper with the event logs. Therefore, it is much more secure than existing central database solutions, which are vulnerable to hacking and data addition or deletion by a central administrator, and allows for a level of data provenance that has not been possible within current frameworks. The MediLedger Project aims to leverage this capability to create an interoperable system in which multiple parties, including manufacturers, wholesale distributors, hospitals, and pharmacies can register, verify, and transfer pharmaceutical products with absolute trust in their authenticity and provenance. This represents a major step forward in regulatory transparency and consumer safety and signifies an important step forward in the application of blockchain technology to the biopharmaceutical industry.

“Traditional, centralized databases are like castles with moats,” said Chronicled CEO Ryan Orr. “You can fortify them as much as you want, but a hacker will always find a clever way to sneak inside the castle. Blockchain introduces a whole new paradigm. It’s a distributed network, data is cryptographically secured, a breach in one node has no effect on the whole, and the consensus mechanism prevents malicious actors from tampering the system. That’s one of the things that’s really revolutionary about this technology.”

The MediLedger Project has aspirations beyond helping to enable pharmaceutical companies to achieve DSCSA compliance. The participants hope to use their system to help fundamentally move the industry forward in improving drug security and preventing the production and trafficking of counterfeit and illicit drugs globally. By year end, they plan to have demonstrated, through a series of milestones, the advantages of a blockchain system as the best way forward for this significant use case.

The project has formed a working group of pharmaceutical industry leaders, which include Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, Pfizer, AmerisourceBergen, and McKesson Corporation. The working group defined the industry requirements for the blockchain pilot, both for a prototype system and for an industry operating model. The group has met the first hurdle: building a prototype system for the registration and verification of medicines on the blockchain while keeping all business information private from other participants. The next effort will be focused on developing business models and operating requirements.

“The immediate goal for us is to show that blockchain is the best solution for this need,” said Susanne Somerville, co-Founder of The LinkLab. “We are aiming to have done that by the end of the year. After that, the sky’s the limit.”

Based in San Francisco, Chronicled is a technology company leveraging blockchain and IoT to power smart, secure supply chain solutions. Chronicled secures IoT device identities, data, and event logs and automates IoT-dependent business logic through smart contracts.
