亞美社區發展協會行政主任劉安琪。(周菊子攝)
               (Boston Orange 周菊子波士頓報導)亞美社區發展協會(ACDC)(28)早在龍鳳酒樓舉辦"社區之心"早餐宴,頒啟發獎表揚波士頓市長馬丁華殊(Martin Walsh),以視頻短片回顧華埠社區30年,強調該會成立宗旨是建可負擔住宅,為移民社區服務。

               今早的這活動,由WCVB5號頻道電視台記者伍沅媚(Janet Wu)擔任司儀,亞美社區發展協會董事長李保華,行政主任劉安琪,董事陳咏梅等人先後致詞,並以伍少文(Ken Eng)拍攝,訪問該會歷年董事,包括張黃玉鷹,李燦輝,盧桂齡,王英健等人的視頻短片,回顧華埠過去這30年來的演變。
               會上,亞美社區發展協會特地邀請波士頓市市長幕僚長高丹尼(Daniel Koh)來介紹今年的啟發獎得獎人,波士頓市長馬丁華殊,藉以反映他重用年輕人,給波士頓帶來的蓬勃朝氣與改變。

               馬丁華殊表示,他競選市長時,就有心要帶領波士頓走上一個新方向,也因此就任後在自己身邊重用,環繞了一批年輕人。三年來締造了不少成績。包括建造了更多可負擔住宅,有了歷年來最多的一級,二級學校,在城市發展上也走向了不只發展,更計畫發展這條路。

他坦言從亞美社區發展協會的誌記30週年影片,看到那麼多波士頓早年樣貌,很是感慨。前一陣子,他和波士頓鄰里發展局局長席拉狄倫才討論到華埠的變化,也知道有些人因為這些改變而無法繼續住在華埠。今後市府將更加盡力,不但推動華埠繁榮,還要促進華埠團結。
               他強調,波士頓市很特殊,是因為有多元族裔,例如北端(North End)的小義大利,南波士頓的愛爾蘭人社區,華埠的華人等,內涵才更豐富。

               亞美社區發展協會董事長李保華在華埠出生,6年級開始,跟隨父母搬家不下4次,親眼見證了華埠的轉變,也見到一代又一代新移民,不斷重複著來自異地他鄉,需要適應,融入當地生活的模式。他強調,成立於1987年的亞美社區發展協會,因此抱持宗旨,要為新移民服務,並致力保留華埠這個族裔社區。
               亞美社區發展協會行政主任劉安琪指出,過去30年來,該會為華埠社區發展C地段,24號地段,建造了華信屋,信義大廈,綠茵苑等大樓,帶給地方居民近千戶住宅單位。近年來該會也深入昆士市,辦理選民登記,鼓勵投票等活動,最近也在擴展服務近摩頓市。該會的服務還包括全麻州唯一用中文授課的購屋101課程,帶領青少年熟悉華埠文化,建築,培養領袖力的AVoice等等。
李保華憶述早年。(周菊子攝)
               下週一,亞美社區發展協會的綠茵苑(One Greenway)第二期51戶可負擔住宅,將從收到約1500份申請書中,抽籤抽出幸運兒。

Rep. Chu Introduces SAFE SEAT Act to Protect Passengers from Overbooking and Airline Abuse

Rep. Chu Introduces SAFE SEAT Act to Protect Passengers from Overbooking and Airline Abuse
   
Washington, D.C. – On April 9, David Dao, an Asian-American doctor, was forcibly dragged off of a United Airlines flight due to overbooking, sustaining serious injury. In response to the shocking incident, and the community outrage that followed, Rep. Judy Chu (CA-27) has introduced the Saving All Flyers from Ejection and Securing Everyone’s Access to Travel (SAFE SEAT) Act. The SAFE SEAT Act prohibits airlines from forcibly removing a passenger after boarding an aircraft unless necessary for safety or security; requires that all overbooking issues must be resolved prior to letting passengers board; and requires that before any individual is denied boarding a flight, the airline must offer the regulatory maximum amount of compensation  to anybody willing to voluntarily give up their seat. Rep. Chu released the following statement:

“Like most Americans, I was shocked and alarmed by the footage of Dr. Dao being violently dragged off a plane after he had already been allowed to take the seat he had paid for. As United has now recognized in public statements and a legal settlement with Dr. Dao, they failed their customer. But no passenger should be treated like Mr. Dao in the first place. We need to prevent the need for future apologies entirely. And that means addressing the problem of overbooking with common sense solutions.

“While I understand that overbooking flights is a part of the airlines’ internal business model, it cannot be a part of the passenger experience. Nor can it be an excuse for disruption or even violence. That is why my bill prohibits the use of force, with exceptions for safety and security, and requires airlines to resolve overbooking issues before letting passengers board. Finally, it creates an incentive for problem solving by requiring airlines to offer at least the highest amount of compensation required to passengers willing to give up their seats. I hope that we can act quickly on this measure to resolve these problems and give passengers a safer, more reliable, and more enjoyable flying experience.”

Newton Mayor Setti Warren and Newton-Wellesley Hospital Announce Partnership to Combat Opioid Epidemic

Newton Mayor Setti Warren and Newton-Wellesley Hospital Announce Partnership to Combat Opioid Epidemic


Newton, MA – The City of Newton and Newton-Wellesley Hospital are establishing an innovative partnership to combat the opioid epidemic in Newton and the region.

Led by Dr. Antje Barreveld, NWH Anesthesiologist and Medical Director of Pain Management Service, the new Substance Abuse Disorders Service (SAS) team will expand clinical education and training programs for providers, provide coordinated, safe, multi-modal treatment for patients with chronic pain and substance use disorders and help patients transition to long-term care when needed. The team will be comprised of a Director, Associate Director, Social Worker, Medical Assistant, Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner, and Recovery Coaches.

“We are excited to continue our work with Newton-Wellesley Hospital as we look to address the opioid epidemic here in Newton,” said Newton Mayor Setti Warren. “The resources and experience that NWH brings, both in treating substance abuse and working in our community, are invaluable as we try innovative programs to help those most in need. By providing long-term care through recovery coaches and other support services, this new program will give those suffering from addiction the treatment they need for a successful recovery.”

This new program builds on the well-established partnership between the City of Newton and NWH to address the opioid epidemic. Three doctors from the Hospital participate on the City’s Newton PATH team and NWH provides Narcan doses to Newton’s first responders.

“Since our founding in 1881, Newton-Wellesley Hospital has played an important role caring for the health and well-being of our community and beyond,” said Michael R. Jaff, DO, President, Newton-Wellesley Hospital. “We look forward to building on our important partnership with the City of Newton to address the deepening and deadly substance abuse crisis in our community.”


“I am very encouraged by this program,” said Newton Police Chief David MacDonald. “We are seeing this crisis play out on the front lines in our community, impacting people of all ages and backgrounds. The focus on prevention and treatment are also the priorities of NPD as we seek to serve and protect the Newton community and we look forward to working with Newton-Wellesley Hospital as a resource and partner.”

BPHC Partners with BPD to Promote Safe Disposal of Prescription Drugs

BPHC Partners with BPD to Promote Safe Disposal of Prescription Drugs
BPHC and BPD encourage residents to utilize prescription drug disposal kiosks this National Prescription Drug Take Back Day
BOSTON - Friday, April 28, 2017 - The Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC) and the Boston Police Department (BPD) are encouraging Bostonians to play a role in curbing the abuse and theft of prescription drugs by dropping their unused or expired prescription drugs at 11 medication disposal kiosks located around the city during National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, April 29, 2017.

"Take Back Day is another great opportunity for us to encourage residents to safely dispose their unwanted medication, which we know reduces opportunities for misuse of those drugs," said BPHC Executive Director Monica Valdes Lupi, JD, MPH. "Proper disposal of medication minimizes the risk to children, family members, and the environment." 

"Properly disposing of unwanted or expired medications reduces opportunities for these drugs to end up being consumed by children or misused by adults. Take Back Day provides a safe and convenient method for the public to dispose of these items," said BPD Commissioner William Evans.

The kiosks are available through a partnership with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the City of Boston, the Boston Police Department (BPD), BPHC, the Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services, the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health's Bureau of Substance Abuse Services.

This kiosk service is free and anonymous, with no questions asked. Kiosks are open to all residents 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and available at any of the following locations:
  • Downtown: 40 New Sudbury St. Boston, MA 02114
  • East Boston: 69 Paris St. East Boston, MA 02128
  • Roxbury: 2400 Washington St. Roxbury, MA 02119
