National Domestic Violence Hotline Releases New PSA

0
National Domestic Violence Hotline

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The National Domestic Violence Hotline (The Hotline) has issued a new PSA in an effort to bring more awareness to domestic violence and inform victims and survivors that there is a free, always-available resource they can rely on.

 

This PSA marks a significant milestone as it is the first to be issued by The Hotline in more than a decade. The Hotline had not created its own PSAs in the past because it was concerned about the calls and chats that would go unanswered due to a lack of resources. Because of the financial support of the NFL, the Family Violence Prevention Program of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and other financial partners, The Hotline is now more equipped to handle increased call volumes than ever before. Through the end of September, the organization has answered nearly 82,400 more calls than it did through the end of September 2014.

The PSA, produced both in English and Spanish, shows how a relationship that appears happy and healthy at first can evolve over time to become unhealthy and even violent. It concludes with two numbers for The Hotline, encouraging victims to seek help.

About The National Domestic Violence Hotline
The National Domestic Violence Hotline is a non-profit organization established in 1996 as part of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Operating around the clock, confidential and free of cost, The Hotline provides victims and survivors with life-saving tools and immediate support. Callers to the hotline 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) can expect highly trained advocates to offer compassionate support, crisis intervention information and referral services in more than 200 languages.  Visitors to TheHotline.org can chat live with advocates and they can find information about domestic violence, safety planning, local resources, and ways to support the organization.

The Hotline is funded by individuals, corporations, foundations and federal grants, including Grant Number 90EV0407/03 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)/ Family Violence Prevention and Services Program, a division of the Family and Youth Services Bureau in the Administration for Children and Families.

If you purchased certain Avalon Organics® or JASON® brand cosmetic products in California, this notice of class action settlement may affect your rights

0

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The following statement is being issued by Lexington Law Group regarding the Avalon Organics and Jason Brand Cosmetics Class Action Lawsuit.

A proposed settlement has been reached in a California class action lawsuit about the labeling and advertising of certain Avalon Organics® and JASON® brand cosmetic products.  The plaintiffs in the lawsuit assert that the packaging and advertising for these products misled consumers to believe that the products were wholly or at least mostly organic.  The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (“Hain”) denies all the plaintiffs’ allegations and is entering into this settlement to avoid burdensome and costly litigation.  The settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing.  The court has not decided who is right and who is wrong.

Am I a Class Member? 
You may be a member of the Class if you purchased at least one Avalon Organics® brand cosmetic product in California during the time period from May 11, 2007 through May 11, 2011 or at least one JASON® brand cosmetic product in California during the time period of May 11, 2007 through January 30, 2011.  The specific Avalon Organics® brand cosmetic products sold in California between May 11, 2007 through May 11, 2011 and the specific JASON® brand cosmetic products sold in California during the time period of May 11, 2007 through January 30, 2011 at issue in this litigation are referred to as the “Challenged Products.”  A complete list of the Challenged Products can be found on the website below.

What Am I Eligible to Receive?
Hain will establish a $7.5 million settlement fund to pay approved Class Member claims, notice and administrative costs, incentive awards to the named plaintiffs, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Also, Hain will provide up to $1.85 million in coupons toward the purchase of Avalon Organics® brand or JASON® brand cosmetic products. Eligible class members without receipts may elect to receive either (i) a cash payment of up to $50 or (ii) a cash payment and coupons worth a combined total of $80. The amount of your payment will depend on the statements in your Claim Form (including whether you have receipts for your purchases in which case there is no cap to your recovery) and whether you choose only cash or a combination of cash and coupons.  The amount of the claim paid (cash or cash and coupons) to class members will also depend on how many people file claims. Complete details of your options are in the detailed notice found at www.HainOrganicCosmeticsLawsuit.com.

What are My Options?
Submit a claim form by January 12, 2016 – this is the only way to receive a cash payment or a cash payment and coupons. Exclude yourself by January 12, 2016 – get out of the settlement. You will not receive benefits, but keep your right to sue the Defendant.  Object by January 12, 2016 – write to the Court about why you do not like the settlement.  Do nothing – get no cash or coupons from this settlement.
 You give up any rights to sue Hain or any of its affiliates on your own about the same legal claims in this lawsuit. You will also be legally bound by all orders the Court issues and judgments the Court makes in this class action. 

The Judge will hold a Final Approval Hearing on February 11, 2016 at 9:30 a.m. at the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, 450 Golden Gate Ave., San Francisco, CA 94102, in Courtroom C on the 15th Floor.  At this hearing, the Judge will consider whether the settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate, and whether to approve attorneys’ fees and costs of up to $4,000,000 and plaintiffs’ awards not to exceed $16,500 in total.  The motion for attorneys’ fees and costs will be posted on the website after it is filed. You may appear at the hearing, but you don’t have to. 

This is only a summary.  For more information, visit www.HainOrganicCosmeticsLawsuit.com, or call 1-844-271-4788.

About Maroon 5

Capturing their first of three Grammy Awards as “Best New Artist” of 2005 and going on to sell more than 17 million albums worldwide, Maroon 5’s releases have gone gold and platinum in over 35 countries. The band won over fans and critics alike with the hybrid rock/R&B sound they introduced on their debut album, Songs About Jane and their double platinum album, It Won’t be Soon Before Long, which included hits like “Makes Me Wonder” and “If I Never See your Face Again.” In 2010, the band released their third studio album, Hands All Over, which featured the group’s anthemic chart-topping smash single “Moves Like Jagger.” The song has since gone on to become one of the best-selling singles of all time. Maroon 5’s fourth album Overexposed quickly reinforced the group’s status as a powerhouse in popular music with all of its singles rising to the top of the charts and setting an all time record for the most #1s (six in total) by a group in the Top 40 chart’s 20-year history. In conjunction with that album, Maroon 5 wrapped one of the highest grossing tours of 2013 with over 50 million dollars in ticket sales.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Siempre Mujer, the largest Spanish-language lifestyle magazine for Latinas in the U.S., once again partnered with The Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA), the only museum in the country dedicated to modern and contemporary Latin American art, to host Fotos y Recuerdos, the ultimate Day of the Dead celebration honoring the life and music of Selena, on Friday, Oct. 30, at MOLAA in Long Beach, Calif.

The ticketed event was open to the public and attracted hundreds of guests from the art, politics, media, entertainment, philanthropy and business worlds, including Sandra Cisneros, the renowned author of The House on Mango Street; Grammy Award-winning musician Chris Perez; filmmaker Sergio Arau; Consul General of Mexico in Los Angeles Carlos M. Sada; Univision’s Despierta America Host Francisca Lachapel; Mayor of Long Beach Robert Garcia; Long Beach First District Councilwoman Lena Gonzalez; ABC7 Vista L.A. correspondent and the event’s Mistress of Ceremonies Patricia Lopez; and YouTube’s Chief Business Officer Robert Kyncl.

Proceeds from ticket sales and the silent auction, featuring unique travel, art and entertainment packages, raised nearly $60,000 to support MOLAA’s exhibition and art education programs.

“Our second year partnering with Siempre Mujer on the Día de los Muertos fundraising gala was a huge success,” says Stuart A. Ashman, MOLAA’s President and CEO. “This vibrant event supports the Museum’s educational goals of providing a rich, cultural context for our exhibitions, and we could not have had a better partner to help us further that mission than Siempre Mujer.”

The theme of the event, Fotos y Recuerdos celebrated the memory and enduring legacy of Selena’s music two decades after her tragic death.

The event honored Perez, Selena’s widower, with the inaugural Dia de los Muertos Spirit Award for his support of Hispanic arts and culture. Following the award ceremony, Perez signed copies of his book, To Selena With Love, for guests. All proceeds from the book sales were donated to the museum.

The fundraiser also kicked off MOLAA’s first-ever Day of the Dead Art & Altar Exhibition, and featured the unveiling of A Room of Her Own, an altar installation created by Cisneros honoring her mother, Elvira Cordero Cisneros, which was previously on display at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History.

The exhibition, which runs through Nov. 29, features 11 traditional altars, which are central to Day of the Dead celebrations to honor the lives of those who have passed, including 10 created by local students and artists, and a Despierta America altar tribute to Selena. The museum’s 2015 Community Altar also celebrates the Tejano artist.

Additional event highlights included:

  • Special musical tribute to Selena by Univision’s Va por Ti finalist Virginia Stille, accompanied by Mariachi Garibaldi.
  • Musical performances by Thee Commons, Boogaloo Assassins, Buyepongo, and Eastside Luv Residente D.J. Bsyde Morales.
  • Mesmerizing live painting by famed Los Angeles-based artist and muralist Robert Vargas.
  • Specialty cocktails and traditional Mexican cuisine with a twist.
  • Day of the Dead-inspired face painting.
  • Interactive on-site ancestor and lineage tracing courtesy of Ancestry.

“Bringing Day of the Dead celebrations to life has become an annual tradition for Siempre Mujer,” says Cristy Marrero, Group Content Chief of Meredith Hispanic Media and Editor-in-Chief of Siempre Mujer. “Every year, we look forward to honoring our unique culture with Day of the Dead events across the country, and it was an honor to once again partner with the Museum of Latin American Art to host this fantastic fundraiser with the Latino community of Los Angeles.”

Siempre Mujer served as the Official Media Partner of the event. Additional event sponsors included Official Food Sponsor HERDEZ® Brand, the No. 1 salsa brand in Mexico, which provided a bountiful spread of festive food and the face painting stations; Ancestry, which debuted its new Ancestry Mexico site, and offered on-site access including Ancestry’s more than 200 million new Mexican records never before available online; el Jimador tequila, which provided specialty cocktails; Korbel, which provided champagne; and Event Partner Mexico Tourism Board.

“We’re committed to helping our Latino community thrive, and there’s no better way to give back than to support the arts,” says Siempre Mujer Associate Publisher Veronica Viviana Wilson. “The Museum of Latin American Art is a critical asset to Long Beach and Los Angeles, and we thank our returning sponsors and new event partners for joining together to help this celebrated cultural institution thrive.”

Siempre Mujer will also serve as the Official Media Partner of Love Never Dies, the first-annual Day of the Dead ball at the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago on Friday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m.

Mary Kay Cause Champion Debby Ryan Challenges Teens To Stand Together Against Abuse

Today, 1-in-3 teens experience abuse in a dating relationship. Mary Kay and Debby Ryan are raising awareness and promoting the importance of healthy relationships through the Don't Look Away challenge. Take the challenge and stand for healthy relationships on social media by posting a picture with two friends using the hashtag #DontLookAway.

DALLAS, Nov. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Today, Mary Kay Inc. and Debby Ryan launched the Don’t Look Away Challenge. Building off the success of Mary Kay’s Don’t Look Away campaign, Debby Ryan is asking teens to stand together with their friends and show their support for healthy relationships on social media.

Today, 1-in-3 teens experience abuse in a dating relationship. Mary Kay and Debby Ryan are raising awareness and promoting the importance of healthy relationships through the Don't Look Away challenge. Take the challenge and stand for healthy relationships on social media by posting a picture with two friends using the hashtag #DontLookAway.

Today, 1-in-3 teens experience abuse in a dating relationship. Mary Kay and Debby Ryan are working to combat this startling statistic by raising awareness and promoting the importance of healthy relationships. Along with Mary Kay, Debby Ryan is passionate about speaking out against dating violence and abuse. Through the Don’t Look Away challenge, she is urging her fans to build awareness and support for healthy relationships on social media by posting a picture with two friends using the hashtag #DontLookAway.

“Dating abuse is a huge problem, and it needs to be talked about all year round – not just during Domestic Violence Awareness Month,” said Debby Ryan. “I am proud to be launching the Don’t Look Away Challenge with Mary Kay. The statistic that 1-in-3 teens experience abuse in a dating relationship is unacceptable and it’s important for teens to understand that they can support each other and stand up against abusive relationships.”

Data from Mary Kay’s sixth annual Truth About Abuse survey reveals that while Americans are more aware of the issue of domestic violence, many still do not recognize the signs of abuse. The survey also points to the critical need for increased awareness and early education about healthy relationships.

Highlights include: 

  • Awareness is on the rise: 53% of those surveyed say that their understanding of domestic violence has improved in the past five years.
  • Even one is too many: 1 in 10 men surveyed did not agree that non-consensual sex is an example of domestic abuse.
  • Critical need to recognize all forms of abuse: 25 percent of Americans do not think that invasion of privacy, lying or excessive and aggressive calling and texting are examples of abuse.
  • Need to drive national discussion: 51% of Americans want domestic violence to get more attention in the news and media.
  • Importance of early, informed discussions: The majority of parents surveyed say that children should be taught about healthy relationships before age 13.
  • Empowering the next generation: 1 in 2 male millennials believe it is possible to end abuse.

“We’re excited to kick off this national challenge with our cause champion Debby Ryan,” said Crayton Webb, Vice President of Corporate Communications and Corporate Social Responsibility for Mary Kay Inc. “This year’s Truth About Abuse survey underscores a critical need for increased education about healthy relationships, especially among young teens. By encouraging teens to stand with their friends and not look away from abuse, the challenge enlists the support of young people to help prevent and ultimately end abuse.”

Both the challenge and the 2015 Truth About Abuse survey are part of Mary Kay’sDon’t Look Away” campaign which works to educate the public on recognizing the signs of an abusive relationship, how to take action and to raise awareness for support services. To date, Mary Kay Inc. and The Mary Kay FoundationSM have given $50 million to domestic violence prevention and awareness programs in an effort to end the cycle of abuse. Mary Kay is also the lead sponsor of the nation’s first-ever text-based helpline operated by loveisrespect. By simply texting ‘loveis’ to 22522, teens and young adults are safely and discretely connected to trained peer advocates who provide support, safety tips and referrals for their own relationships or a friend’s.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Safelite AutoGlass®, the largest provider of vehicle glass repair and replacement services in the nation, has earned the 2016 Military Friendly® Employer designation by Victory Media, publisher of G.I. Jobs®and Military Spouse. Companies competed for the elite Military Friendly® Employer title by completing a data-driven survey, with data independently tested by Ernst & Young based upon the weightings and methodology established by Victory Media and its Advisory Board. Criteria for the survey included a benchmark score across key programs and policies, such as the strength of company military recruiting efforts, percentage of new hires with prior military service, retention programs for veterans, and company policies on National Guard and Reserve service.

While hiring for growth, Safelite develops recruitment strategies that aim toward military veterans, recognizing it’s the right thing to do and that it makes good business sense. 

“At Safelite, we value not only what our service men and women have done, but what they have potential to do,” said Safelite Senior Vice President of People, Leadership & Development Natalie Crede. “Military veterans bring highly transferrable skills, leadership qualities and are an excellent source for the integrity, commitment and service mindset we look for in our people. Frankly, we’re honored when a military veteran applies for a position with us.”

Military Friendly® Employers is the premier resource for transitioning service members and spouses seeking civilian employment. Each year, companies taking the survey are held to a higher standard than the previous year via improved methodology, criteria and weightings developed with the assistance of an Advisory Board consisting of leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community.

“Companies that have earned the 2016 Military Friendly® Employer award have exceptionally strong hiring programs and meaningful careers for transitioning service members and spouses,” said Daniel Nichols, Chief Product Officer of Victory Media and Navy Reserve veteran. “Our Military Friendly® Employers are moving the needle beyond answering ‘why hire military’ – they are truly aligning their jobs and recruiting efforts with Military Friendly® educators to translate military competencies into civilian jobs.”

Safelite AutoGlass will be showcased along with other 2016 Military Friendly® Employers in the December issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine as well as on MilitaryFriendly.com.
