	 Addressing Employment-Based Visa Wait Times
	 
 

There have been a lot of comments and questions received from readers about employment-based petitions and related applications for adjustment to lawful permanent residence. This is a complicated subject, so I want to provide a little background. Becoming a permanent resident based on employment can require a number of steps, including obtaining a labor certification from the Department of Labor, receiving approval on a petition for alien worker from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) (Form I-140) and obtaining an immigrant visa from the Department of State or being granted adjustment of status from USCIS. In addition, by law there are numerical limits on the number of people who can immigrate to the U.S. each year in most categories. You can see a more detailed explanation about the employment-based visa application process online.Some readers have asked about the volume of employment applications and delays that have occurred in employment-based visa petition and adjustment application processing in late 2007 and early 2008. There were a number of factors that affected USCIS' handling of these cases during that time. Employers filed more than 234,000 petitions to sponsor foreign workers (Form I-140) as the Department of Labor cleared a large backlog of labor certification applications and implemented new regulations. Adjustment-of-status application filings also soared to nearly 300,000. We attribute the increase in adjustment application filings to a couple things. First, customers' anticipation of USCIS' filing fee increase in July 2007. Second, a unique opportunity for workers and their families to file adjustment applications based on the visa availability date announced in the July 2007 Immigrant Visa Bulletin. Many of these availability dates have since reverted, creating a backlog of adjustment applications that cannot be adjudicated until a visa becomes available.A few months ago, a customer indicated his frustration that while he can monitor the Visa Bulletin to see how it moves month to month, he still has no idea how many people are waiting in line with pending adjustment applications or how long it may be before USCIS can process and approve his application. We know this customer is not alone! In response to that customer's request, we are working to make this information available on our Web site. I understand the importance of becoming a permanent resident.

CARE Act Court

 CARE Act Court
 

Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment Act (CARE) Court is a new state-approved framework designed to get people with mental health and substance abuse disorders the support and care they need. 

Welcome to CARE Act Court

Glenn County’s CARE Act Court will build safe and trusting relationships with each participant and create individualized treatment plans which address each participant’s specific needs so that we can improve the health, wellness, and quality of life for every participant. As we work towards these goals, CARE Act Court will respect each participant’s autonomy and dignity. CARE Act Court is here to help. CARE Act Court will not put anyone in jail. CARE Act Court will not force anyone to take medications. Rather, CARE Act Court will work with individuals so that they can heal with dignity. We are glad you are considering CARE Act Court participation.

The CARE Act Court Concept
CARE Act Court will help community members who have been diagnosed with Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders. As a result of these disorders, many people who would benefit from help may not recognize that they need it. CARE Act Court will build a relationship with each participant, motivate the participant to develop a treatment plan, and support them on their journey to a happier, healthier life. Each treatment plan will consider the individual’s needs, preferences, and goals.
When the person who needs the support of CARE Act Court accepts a treatment plan, everyone involved in CARE Act Court will collaborate with that person to succeed. As soon as the person who needs the help reaches a point in treatment where the Court’s involvement is no longer necessary or beneficial, the case will be dismissed.
The CARE Act Court Process
       CARE Act Court petitions may be filed starting October 2, 2023  
A party that initiates a petition with the court is called the petitioner.  The party that either agrees, or disagrees with the information the petitioner has submitted to the court is called the respondent.
Crisis Resolution Center boasts success | Placer County, CA
“The CRC is a valuable community program that redirects children and families in crisis with services so that these children return home to a more stable environment, where children and families can thrive. This in turn alleviates unnecessary added pressure on the justice system and is good for families.”The Crisis Resolution Center, located in Loomis and operated by Koinonia Family Services, is a six-bed co-ed facility with professional counseling services, conflict resolution, parent-child training and referral services. Youth remain at the CRC and parents collaborate with CRC staff as they work towards stabilization and reunification.The CRC is a rarity in California, only lasting as long as it has thanks to creative funding partnerships between the county’s Probation and Health and Human Services departments, particularly the Children’s System of Care. This shared funding is supplemented by Koinonia and private donors, among others. In addition to the residential facility, Koinonia operates a CRC warm line at (866) 251-7584 for youth and families.“The success of the CRC really has stemmed from our broader efforts to collaborate across different agencies to support youth in our community,” said CSOC director Twylla Abrahamson.  “Our probation, school and justice partners have linked arms with us for decades and it’s been truly impactful.”These agencies first developed a memorandum of understanding shaping how they’d work together – to share ideas, data and funding – back in 1988, forming what’s known as the SMART Policy team.Placer County is the only in California to see a growth in its youth population since the COVID-19 pandemic – yet youth mental health has also been a growing focus in the wake of the pandemic. As the county continues to build out its portfolio of resources for young people – from recently-expanded mobile crisis services to a planned youth mental health urgent care on the Government Center campus in Auburn – it can lean on its history of success with the CRC.

I support this grant application. This area in question is a very important area for public recreation steeped in local history. This group is dedicated to Open access to all users, and it is inherently dependent on OHV access, not only for OHV activities, rather, it allows so many more user groups to access the area as well. One strong point in their language is "Education", education is key to building stewardship among users. The various opportunities to educating people in proper stewardship are through contact as mentioned, this outreach goes very far for teaching people what they may not know. Outreach to schools, teaching kids about the environment and how to care for it while they enjoy their time out on the trails, laying a foundation that later will reinforce their understanding of stewardship. Maps help a lot to give direction not only where to go, but where not to go. And kiosks with a big map with information on the area which include some history and information needed to recreate safely and to be considerate of others and the environment. I believe this effort is a good model for a stewardship in promoting proper use of public lands and a good partnership to ensure open access. Previous grants from this group have been very successful in educating and giving direction to users.
