 From: Eduardo Torres, Art Department Manager To: Art Department-ALL; Editorial Department-ALL Subject: Archiving old files Date: November 15 Because of the high volume of electronic files that are currently on our server, you may have noticed that our computer system has recently begun to slow down considerably. For this reason, we are implementing the use of a new archive system. This mass-storage system will allow everyone to store the files that they are no longer using. The files will be removed from our active server and placed into long-term storage. You will still be able to pull these files from the archives when needed, but they will no longer slow down our computers. Please take some time this week to flag old files that you have saved on the server. These should include any files from previous editions of our magazine that you do not intend to reuse in future versions of the magazine. Compile a list of the file names and locations and send via e-mail to Mitchell Asbury ...

From: L. Martínez, Family/Child Welfare Supervisor To: All Family and Child Social Workers Re: Stress Please know that the supervisors and administrators of our agency are well aware of the high stress level associated with careers in social work. Many social workers experience stress due to heavy caseloads, long and unpredictable hours, insufficient service resources for your clients, low salary, and other factors. High stress levels can cause fatigue, psychological problems, sleep disorders, and cardiovascular problems. For that reason, we are happy to offer a complimentary stress-reduction program. The program is run by specialists at Lytle University but will be held at our agency. This eight-week course begins on April 26 at 7:00 p.m. It assures improvement in the well-being of participants. The program teaches coping skills as well as relaxation techniques. A recent survey conducted by the National Association of Social Workers details several methods of stress reduction. Social ...

 COMMUNITY INITIATIVES REPORT: Reducing Violent Crimes Among Youths A local urban police force has positively impacted violent crime among youths by implementing a new program. Teams of police officers and probation officers work together to make sure that youth gang members and other offenders follow the terms of their probation. The impact of the program was seen in a single night. Four officers—two police officers and two probation officers—arrived at the crime scene. They found a 15-year-old shooting victim lying on the ground. There was a crowd around him. Some of the people in the crowd had previously been punished for crimes. When the anti-gang police officers from the area got out of the car, the onlookers stayed at the scene. Although the officers were well known and taken seriously, the witnesses stayed, as they felt that there was no harm in watching. When the other two officers stepped out of the car, the crowd began to disperse right away. Many of them recognized the p...
