Following the creation and expansion of the domestic food assistance programs in the second half of the 20th century, severe hunger, which had been a significant national problem, has become rare. The food assistance programs were developed in several steps. Concerns about the nutritional status of young men drafted for service in World War II led to the enactment of the National School Lunch Act in 1946. The Food Stamp Program was established on a pilot basis in the early 1960s, and extended nationwide in the early 1970s

In the past few years, dramatic progress has been made in tackling fraud, waste, and abuse in the Food Stamp Program. The numbers tell the story, and program managers at all levels of administration have a right to be proud. But the road to improvement hasn't been easy. With the legislative changes of 1981 and the beginning of Operation Awareness in 1983, the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) stepped up its efforts to help states Improve their programs. This intensified push to get results placed new pressure on many states, and some food stamp officials were apprehensive that they would be unable to resolve trouble areas without help.

Newswatch Police, Fire, Courts By Star-Bulletin staff and wire Thursday, August 7, 2003 Heads up, Mr. Mayor: Skull sent back to isle It was just another day yesterday at Honolulu Hale until Mayor Jeremy Harris' secretary opened a package addressed to her boss. Wrapped in newspaper inside the box was a human skull. "This is the strangest thing we've ever received," said Vicki Borges, Harris' executive assistant. The package also contained a note from the anonymous sender, apparently a former Marine who had been stationed in Hawaii in the early 1950s, Borges said. The man said in the note that he had taken the skull and now wanted to return it, she said. The sender wasn't sure where the skull came from, but he believed it was from the Bellows area of Windward Oahu, Borges said. Police took the skull to the city medical examiner's office, where it was determined to be ancient. More tests were to be conducted.

Pacific Resources for Education and Learning Email: askprel@prel.org www.prel.org Parental Involvement in Education: What Works in the Pacific? by Stan Koki and Harvey Lee* Promising Practice Product # PP9802 At the present time, very limited published research about parental involvement in Pacific education exists to help guide efforts to promote involvement. A recent research synthesis published by Pacific Resources for Education and Learning (PREL) presents greater insight into parental involvement in Pacific education. Rather than focusing on parents only, the study uses the broader and more inclusive term family The Perceived Value of Parental Involvement Barriers in the Pacific Region Some Pacific barriers to involvement reflect unique cultural conditions. In many instances, community comes before education. Therefore, if a village or community event takes place at the same time as a school event, the former takes precedence. Likewise, in some communities, the church plays a vital role in the community or larger society. School activities therefore may take a backseat to church activities that require community participation. Numerous barriers to parental involvement in education are embedded within the procedures of contemporary schooling. In some island communities, the responsibility of involving parents is assigned to the principal. If the principal has a positive relationship and good communication rapport with parents, it is likely that there will be strong participation in school affairs. However, if the principal places low priority on parental involvement or does not communicate well with families, parents may feel unwelcome and unwanted at the school.

The Child Care Partnership Project: Hawaii’s Good Beginnings Initiative: Building Community and State Partnerships for Young Children and Their Families Intro Activities Resources Results ... Contact Info Patience, persistence, and partnership are three of the keys to success in Hawaii’s Good Beginnings initiative. Local and state partners have proven that concern over early care and education can build partnerships across multiple boundaries—geographic, disciplinary, governmental, and public-private—despite economic, geographic, and demographic obstacles. In a state consisting of eight islands encompassing a huge landmass of 6,450 square miles, an ethnically diverse population speaking several languages, and a weak economy, people have come together around early childhood issues in unprecedented ways. Operational since 1997, Good Beginnings had its seeds planted over ten years ago. A decade of patience and persistence has created the structures, services, and, most importantly, the constituency that is needed to give all of Hawaii’s children a good beginning. Good Beginnings is not an activity, and does not provide direct services. Rather, it is an umbrella initiative working to maximize healthy child development from before birth through the first five years of life. As a conduit for information, vehicle for communication, and ongoing facilitator, the Good Beginnings initiative is helping Hawaii take a significant step forward in improving the early education and care system.

Nutrition Assistance Program Needs New Recipe Report calls for more focus on fruits, vegetables, grains and breast-feeding By Amanda Gardner HealthDay Reporter FRIDAY, May 6 (HealthDay News) The government's nutrition assistance program for low-income women and children may get a major overhaul. A new report from the Institute of Medicine calls the program, known as the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC), outdated and inadequate. The report proposes sweeping changes intended to encourage participants to eat more fruits, vegetables and whole grains, and mothers to breast-feed their infants. In the current program, the only fruits and vegetables available are juice for children aged 4 months and older and carrots for mothers who are breast-feeding, despite new national nutritional guidelines that emphasize fresh produce. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, which sponsored the study, now has 18 months to act on the recommendations. If accepted, the revisions would be the most significant since the program began in 1974.
