SBCUSD Celebrates Successful Completion of For klift Training and OSHA Safety Pr og ram f or Special Education Young Adults
Community News
In a remarkable display of dedication and determination, a group of special education young adults, ages 18 to 23, successfully completed a free vocational training program in forklift operation and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety
This significant achievement by the students who participated in the Working on Real Careers (WORC) Program not only highlights the potential of individuals with special needs but also showcases the power of inclusive education and vocational training in creating meaningful opportunities for their future The San Bernardino City Unified School District (SBCUSD) offered the training in collaboration with the San Bernardino Community College District (SBCCD) Workforce Development and the SBCUSD Bridge to WORC program, headed by Special Education teacher Francine Apacible
Recognizing the importance of inclusive education and vocational training, SBCUSD and SBCCD came together to support individuals with special needs in acquiring essential skills that give them more opportunities to find skilled work Through this comprehensive program, these young adults were given an equal chance to develop their talents, gain practical knowledge, and enhance their employability prospects
The vocational training program centered on two vital areas: forklift operation and OSHA-10 safety regulations Participants were provided with hands-on training in operating forklifts, which included mastering essential skills such as maneuvering, loading, and unloading Simultaneously, they learned about OSHA safety guidelines, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of workplace safety practices and protocols, Apacible said
The WORC program takes a tailored approach, considering the unique needs and abilities of each participant Trained instructors and educators provided personalized support and guidance, adapting teaching methods to suit the learning styles of individuals with special needs This inclusive approach fostered a supportive environment that encouraged growth, self-confidence, and skill development among participants
“The journey towards completing the vocational training program was not without its challenges,” Apacible said “But the participants’ resilience, determination, and unwavering commitment shone through as they tackled obstacles and honed their skills ”
In fact, two participants achieved full certification in all four levels of training, seven students were certified in operating a pallet jack, and eight students earned the OSHA-10 safety training
San Ber nardino Witnesses Remar kable Success of Life-saving 'Sound the Alar m' Initiative
By Ricardo Tomboc and Manny SandovalThe collaborative effort of the American Red Cross, San Bernardino County Fire Department, and various local contributors bore fruit on May 6th, Saturday, as they successfully conducted their impactful "Sound the Alarm, Save a Life" event in the heart of San Bernardino City
The main target of this initiative were the numerous Mobile Home Parks scattered across 9th Street and Valencia neighborhoods, where volunteers went from door to door, offering the invaluable service of installing smoke alarms at no cost to the residents
Launched in 2014, the "Sound the Alarm" program is a sweeping national initiative that aims to drastically diminish the frequency of deaths and injuries resulting from home fires Supported by various partners, the Red Cross has made remarkable
progress, installing over 2 5 million smoke alarms and saving no fewer than 1,800 lives
The San Bernardino chapter of the Sound the Alarm initiative painted a vivid picture of the project's potential impact It made a substantial difference in 79 households, providing critical education on fire safety to 289 individuals and ensuring the installation of 169 smoke alarms
Many of these homes lacked any prior installation of smoke alarms, and others had faulty or outdated devices that were dutifully replaced with state-of-theart 10-year units
For those moved by this cause and interested in contributing their time and effort to the American Red Cross, you can contact the San Bernardino Recruiter, Juana Zapata, at juana zapata@redcross org to discover more about the diverse volunteer opportunities available

headaches can be treated by over the counter medications and are typically easy to manage by exercising regularly, getting enough sleep and managing stress
A migraine is a headache that can cause severe throbbing pain or a pulsing sensation, usually on one side of the head The headache can vary in intensity and is often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light and sound “The combination of prioritizing quality sleep, limiting caffeine intake, engaging in regular exercise, and maintaining a well-balanced diet is key to effective migraine management”, states Dr Rajan Chopra, Neurologist at St Bernardine Medical Center About 12% of the population in the US will have a migraine at some point in their life Migraines may be triggered by caffeine, medications, hormonal changes, dehydration,
changes in weather, and even certain foods
Cluster headaches occur in patterns or clusters and may last weeks to months “Cluster headaches cause severe pain that tends to recur in the same way and same location each time”, says Dr Chopra Triggers include smoking, alcohol use, change in altitude foods with nitrates and bright light
It is important to monitor headaches and seek medical attention if they occur more often than usual and keep you from working, sleeping or participating in normal activities

Antonio* estaba trabajando en construcción cuando sufrió una grave lesión Sin saber cuánto duraría su rehabilitación, su mayor preocupación era cómo iba a pagar las facturas y mantener una vivienda Todo cambió cuando un amigo de Antonio le contó sobre un servicio gratuito de asesoramiento sobre temas de vivienda Los asesores de este programa ofrecen asesoramiento y capacitación gratuitos sobre morosidad en temas hipotecarios, alquiler de una vivienda, preparación para la compra de una vivienda, hipotecas inversas e incluso medidas de prevención para no terminar sin un lugar donde vivir
La financiación de este servicio procede de los Presupuestos del Estado de California por medio del Acuerdo Hipotecario Nacional (National Mortgage Settlement, o NMS, por sus siglas en inglés) y está administrado por la Agencia de Financiamiento de la Vivienda de California (California Housing Finance Agency, o CalHFA, por sus siglas en inglés) Por medio de su Programa de Asesoramiento de Vivienda del NMS, CalHFA ya ha ayudado a más de 50,000 familias a encontrar asesores de vivienda certificados por el Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Urbano (HUD, por su sigla en inglés) en todo el estado, para recibir servicios de asesoramiento de vivienda gratuitos y confidenciales
Un asesor sobre temas de vivienda trabajó con Antonio, respondiendo a sus preguntas sobre opciones bancarias y crediticias La sesión se centró en cómo podría alcanzar sus objetivos financieros incluso aunque no pudiera trabajar debido a la lesión Trabajaron en los aspectos básicos de la creación de crédito y revisaron el proceso bancario, ya que Antonio no tenía una cuenta bancaria El asesor de vivienda le ayudó a establecer un presupuesto general para administrar sus gastos y empezar a ahorrar para alcanzar sus objetivos financieros Además, el asesor sobre temas de vivienda le ayudó a inscribirse en un curso de inglés como segundo idioma (ESL, por sus siglas en inglés), porque el idioma era algo que Antonio quería mejorar También lo refirieron a un activista y defensor de derechos que le ayudó a presentar una solicitud de indemnización por accidente laboral
"Los californianos que trabajan duro y merecen participar en el ‘sueño americano’ no siempre tienen una ‘red de seguridad’ a la que recurrir en tiempos difíciles", dijo Tiena Johnson Hall, Directora Ejecutiva de la Agencia de Financiación de la Vivienda de California "Este programa ayuda a las personas a estabilizar su situación de vida al recibir asesoramiento y acceso a programas y recursos que de otro modo no conocerían"
Para encontrar un asesor, cualquier persona puede visitar el sitio web de CalHFA y buscar “NMS”, o ir directamente a la página de asesoramiento en https://www calhfa ca gov/community/nms/resources htm Todas las sesiones son gratuitas, y los propietarios de viviendas pueden ponerse en contacto con una de estas organizaciones aunque no vivan en la misma zona geográfica, ya que el asesoramiento se puede hacer por teléfono o por videollamada
El Programa de Asesoramiento sobre temas de Vivienda del NMS ayudó a Antonio a superar un momento difícil Tiempo más tarde, cuando volvió a ponerse en contacto con la persona que le asesoró, para ver cómo le iba, se alegró de haber abierto una cuenta bancaria, de estar mejorando su calificación crediticia y de haber empezado un curso de inglés (ESL) en un colegio comunitario Y lo que es más importante, Antonio logró mantenerse en su hogar y mantuvo su vivienda
Johnson Hall añadió: "El asesoramiento sobre temas de vivienda es un servicio crucial que reduce el número de personas sin hogar, se enfrenta a la inseguridad en temas de vivienda y reduce los obstáculos para llegar a ser propietario de una casa, todo lo cual puede encaminar a las personas hacia el bienestar financiero Espero que toda persona que tenga problemas (de vivienda) aproveche esta oportunidad de ayuda gratuita"
