Diversity and Inclusion - NYSDEC
Environmental stewardship is integral to many cultures, and the pursuit of ensuring a clean, healthy environment now and into the future remains DEC's goal on a professional and personal level. DEC Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Civil RightsIn 2024, DEC announced the creation of the Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Civil Rights. This new office builds on the progress of the Workforce Diversity and Inclusion Implementation Plan for Fiscal Years 2021-2026 (PDF), which outlines DEC’s priorities and goals as New York State continues to cultivate and promote a diverse and inclusive culture where employees feel welcomed and motivated to do their best.  DEC’s Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Civil Rights (DICR) focuses on four main objectives within the agency:   Ensure compliance with Federal and State Civil Rights requirements and implementation of Commissioner’s Policy 76; Expand DEC’s language access offerings both in written documents and public meetings; Ensure compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in DEC operations and implementation of Executive Order 31 to meet internal accessibility goals; and  Oversee strategic planning and initiatives for workplace diversity inclusion and belonging. The Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Civil Rights, like other programs within DEC’s Equity and Justice portfolio, helps advise programs agency wide on activities that promote inclusivity, diversity, and accessibility in DEC outreach, education, and program delivery.  These efforts reflect DEC's ongoing commitment to support diversity; promote continuous learning and advancement of diversity and inclusion; recruit qualified candidates of different backgrounds, experiences, and talents; provide internal developmental opportunities; and assess what more we can do to nurture a supportive and inclusive work environment. Resources and Links Diversity Resources in the Outdoors, Science, and Environmental Justice Resources include articles, podcasts, and blogs that present the perspective of Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), Latino/a, and Latinx, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and other identities (LGBTQ+) and their experiences in the outdoors and in nature.
Geriatric Physical Therapy Residency Program | VA Birmingham Health Care | Veterans Affairs
Please contact the Program Director with any specific questions regarding the application process.How long is the program?This is a 1-year, temporary appointment.What will my weekly schedule be?The Resident’s tour of duty is 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday but may be altered based on mentors' schedules and patient care needs. Residents will have clinical duties including direct patient care for approximately 30 hours per week and 6-10 hours per week will be designated for didactic education and individualized mentoring.What does mentoring entail? “Mentoring is a professional relationship where a more experienced mentor guides a less experienced mentee to promote professional growth in a clinical setting. It is not the same as providing clinical instruction to the entry-level Physical Therapy student. It is pre-planned to meet specific educational objectives and facilitate the development of advanced professional behaviors, clinical decision making, proficiency in communications, and consultation skills.” (APTA 2012). Our program has a minimum of 150 hours of 1:1 mentoring.What clinical experiences should I expect? The Birmingham VA Healthcare System is a tertiary referral hospital which allows us to provide a wide variety of clinical experiences for our residents. Clinical rotations allow for experience within the acute care, outpatient, home-based primary care, and skilled nursing settings.  Experiences include exposure to diseases and conditions affecting the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, integumentary, neuromuscular, and immune systems and topics ranging from dementia, delirium, falls, frailty, heart failure, acute infection, diabetes, amputation, cancer, polypharmacy, autoimmune illness, wound care, and other conditions affecting the geriatric population.Telehealth may be integrated into patient care in outpatient rotations and potentially home-based primary careWill I have to study outside work?Residents typically have several hours of self-directed study each week outside of the typical work hours. This is often reading and preparation for required professional presentations. Residents will have access to MedBridge.Will I receive a stipend/salary?Yes. The stipend is determined annually by the VA Office of Academic Affairs.
2001 Budget Analysis:State Data Centers
Generally, the state provides lower salaries and incentives than private industry and
experiences additional recruitment difficulties due to civil service requirements. The state's current vacancy rate for IT classifications,
which ranges between 15 percent to 19 percent, is slightly higher than the overall state vacancy rate of 15 percent. Further
examination is needed to assess the state's ability to fill IT positions, particularly at the state's primary data centers which support
critical IT systems.
The TDC Has Older Workforce. The DOIT's report found that HHSDC and TDC had an older workforce with highly
specialized skills. The report indicated that data centers run the risk of losing these skills due to higher retirement rates among this
segment of the workforce.
Our review indicates that TDC has a slightly older workforce than the state's IT workforce as a whole. For example, 17 percent of
the state IT workforce is between the ages of 51 and 55 compared to 23 percent of TDC's workforce. This means that TDC can
anticipate losing some of its highly skilled workforce in the near future and may be unable to adequately replace these employees
because of the state's overall problem of IT staff recruitment.
The HHSDC and TDC Perform Identical Functions. Both HHSDC and TDC perform the same functions including
supporting mainframe and midrange systems and communications networks. The exceptions are HHSDC's oversight of large
automation projects and TDC's support of Geographical Information Systems. The DOIT's 1997 report did not examine the
benefits of specializing existing functions between the two data centers, but instead focused primarily on reducing the number of
mainframe data centers. We believe it may be possible to achieve efficiencies—either in cost savings or improved operations—by
each data center specializing in particular functions. For example, one data center could provide support to mainframes while the
other could support midrange systems.
More Outsourcing Options May Be Available. The DOIT's 1997 report also recommended that the state have private industry
perform selected data center functions (a process known as "outsourcing") such as printing, help desk, and network support. Since

2024 Introduction and Milestones

Introduction to Part I
Part I
Part II

The oral history archive comprises more than 150 videotaped interviews of retired justices of the Courts of Appeal, as well as active justices who may be nearing retirement. Interviewers were selected from within the state's appellate branch, and in most instances the interviews were conducted by a justice who currently serves in the retired justice's former court.
The interviews touched upon a host of personal and professional recollections, including childhood and youth, education, law school years, judicial careers and other government service, judicial philosophies, notable opinions, concurrences and dissents, significant historical events, and the attitudes, events, and experiences that have shaped the justices' perspectives.
The resulting archive is a historical record of the personal experiences of individual justices and the changes that have emerged over the years in the California judicial system and the legal profession.
Staff of the Judicial Council of California continue to schedule interviews with justices as they retire from the bench. See below for photos, videos, transcripts, and biographies of the retired justices that have been interviewed to date. They are listed by the appellate district in which a justice served and sorted in alphabetical order.

The 2024-25 Budget: Initial Comments on the Governor’s May Revision
Although the administration’s focus for ongoing reductions tends to be on newer programs and program expansions, there could be longer-standing programs that the Legislature wishes to revisit.
Do Any Proposals Raise Serious Concerns? While structurally the Governor has taken a prudent approach, some specific proposals raise concerns for our office. (Rejecting or reducing either of these solutions or any others would require finding equivalent alternatives in dollar-for-dollar terms.) Specifically, based on our initial review we have concerns with:

Suspension of NOL Deductions. Typically, when a business experiences a NOL, it is allowed to carry forward these NOLs and deduct them from their income in future years. This allows businesses to smooth profits and losses such that businesses with similar profits over time pay similar taxes. Without this smoothing, businesses in riskier or more innovative industries—such as the technology, motion picture, and transportation sectors—could end up paying more taxes than businesses with similar but more stable profits. As such, suspending NOL deductions would lead to a less equitable tax system. While the suspension of NOL deductions has been a go-to budget solution for decades, the frequency at which this approach has been used is now starting to raise questions. Should the Governor’s proposal take effect, the state will have disallowed NOL deductions in nearly half of years between 2008 and 2027. At this rate, it seems reasonable to ask whether suspensions have begun to meaningfully undermine the purpose of allowing NOL deductions in the first place.
Unallocated State Operation Reduction. In January, the Governor proposed a one-time, vacancy-related $762.5 million unallocated General Fund reduction across state departments. In the May Revision, the Governor modifies this January proposal by making the reduction ongoing. In addition to the January reduction proposal, the May Revision includes a new proposed $2.2 billion unallocated reduction to state operations in 2024-25 and $2.8 billion ongoing beginning in 2025-26. This effectively reduces General Fund state operations costs by 7.95 percent.

Being pressured or coerced into sexual activities, such as with threats of negative treatment if you refuse to cooperate or with promises of better treatment
Sexual contact or activities without your consent, including when you were asleep or intoxicated
Being overpowered or physically forced to have sex
Being touched or grabbed in a sexual way that made you uncomfortable, including during “hazing” experiences
Comments about your body or sexual activities that you found threatening
Unwanted sexual advances that you found threatening

About Military Sexual Trauma

Watch the video shown above to learn more about what MST is, how it affects people who experience it and what VA services are available to MST survivors.
Explore treatment options for conditions related to MST.
Impact
People of all genders, ages, sexual orientations, racial and ethnic backgrounds, and branches of service have experienced MST. Like other types of trauma, MST can negatively affect a person’s mental and physical health, even many years later. Things you may experience could include:

Disturbing memories or nightmares
Difficulty feeling safe
Feelings of depression or numbness
Using alcohol or other drugs to numb or escape from negative feelings
Feeling isolated from other people
Difficulties with anger, irritability, or other strong emotions
Self-doubt, self-blame, or decreased self esteem
Issues with sleep
Physical health problems

If you are having any current difficulties related to MST, VA is here to support you in whatever way will help you best — from learning more about how MST affects people, to treatment that helps you cope with how MST is impacting your life currently, or if you prefer, treatment that involves discussing your experiences in more depth.
For questions about treatment and health care options related to MST, talk with an MST Coordinator at a VA health care facility near you.
