Berver, a 28-year employee and former Legal Advertising Manager, and Sandoval, Managing News Editor, will now serve as co-owners and publishers of the respected publication
A Colton native and IECN employee since her senior year of high school, Berver has built a strong reputation within the organization and community through her competence, efficiency, and trustworthiness
Berver said, “I learned the business from the publisher, especially Bill Harrison I operate like Bill does, ensuring everything runs smoothly for years I look forward to advancing our publication and utilizing technology to expand and maintain our community ties I accept the legacy and look forward to modernizing ”
Manny Sandoval, who began writing for IECN as a 19-year-old student at San Bernardino Valley College (SBVC), expressed his passion for the publication, stat-
ing, “Initially, I became inspired to write and passionate about spotlighting non-profit organizations when I was just 12 years old after experiencing the loss of my younger brother to cancer My mom encouraged me to get out there, and it truly was a form of therapy that has since turned into a full-fledged career For the past decade, it has been rewarding and a privilege to shine a light on the initiatives being executed and positive news across the Inland Empire ”
Sandoval continued, “I’m looking forward to continuing the legacy, collaborating and partnering with KVCR, SBVC’s Department of Film, TV, and Media, and Colton High School’s Pepper Bough to elevate our digital and print news coverage in the cities of San Bernardino, Colton, Rialto, and beyond ”
Bill and Gloria Macias Harrison are proud of the opportunities they have provided young people through their newspapers, stating, “We are very proud of serving our communities and the lives we have affected for people who have worked with us The opportunities we provided to people over the years have landed former employees in PR, communications, national news companies,
and government organizations We’re happy to have been part of this for over five decades We look forward to future collaboration with the IECN and remaining active in our community ”
As the new co-owners and publishers of IECN, Berver and Sandoval aim to preserve the legacy of the news publications while embracing modernization and new technologies Both SBVC and California State University, San Bernardino alums are committed to maintaining the strong community ties the publication has built
As IECN embarks on its new chapter, the communities it serves can look forward to an ongoing commitment to providing positive community news, highlighting local issues, and championing balanced stories that matter to the residents of the Inland Empire With the combined experience, passion, and dedication of Berver and Sandoval at the helm, the future of IECN looks brighter than ever

Intellectuall y Disabled Students Left in the Dar k: Planned Par enthood’s Fight f or Compr ehensive Sex Education
By Manny SandovalThe state of sexual education for some of San Bernardino County's most vulnerable students is "abysmal," according to many former students The plight of students with intellectual disabilities (IDD) has been a primary concern, given their increased vulnerability to exploitation and sexual abuse
Faviola Mercado, Community Education Manager at Planned Parenthood of Orange and San Bernardino Counties, described the current system as "greatly lacking " She said, "It's required that all students be educated in sexual health The changes applied recently expanded what sex ed looks like in public schools However, this is often carried out in a haphazard manner, with some schools teaching it in health, some in PE, and some in science classes There should be a designated class that covers sex education comprehensively "
Addressing the 2016 California Healthy Youth Act, Mercado said, "The law requires that comprehensive sexual health education and HIV prevention education be taught at least once in middle and high school But what we're seeing, particularly in the case of students with IDD, is a gross failure in its implementation "
A study shows that when young people have comprehensive information about birth control methods and safe sex, they will likely delay sexual activity Furthermore, when they engage, they tend to practice safer sex, which helps prevent unintended pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
Mercado emphasized the need for increased sexual education among students with intellectual disabilities "This population is often viewed as easy targets by predators due to their
disability This could be because they are less likely to identify and effectively communicate the abuse Sometimes they're less likely to report it because they feel no one will believe them, and sometimes they do not have the words to express it "
To address this, Planned Parenthood launched the Equal Voices program, which aims to bridge the gap between the current state of sexual education and a healthier, more comprehensive understanding Equal Voices provides tailored education for youth with IDD, helping them identify healthy and unhealthy relationships, understand bodily autonomy, and effectively communicate abuse
Mercado stated that teachers, parents, and caregivers do not have to do it alone "We identify that gap and need for education We adapted our general education to suit youth with IDD Our expert educators go into the classes and teach the portion on sex ed We offer teacher development training Our educators can go and gauge the room and be able to adapt the material needed for each classroom as needed "
This education is free of cost for public schools and government agencies and is also available in Spanish for parents and caregivers
The success of Equal Voices has been monumental "It continues to increase year after year Especially after California's healthy youth act, it has continued to increase This year we have reached almost 700 people with IDD," said Mercado
Despite the California Healthy Youth Act, many students report not learning about STI prevention and symptoms, birth control, their rights, caring for their sexual health, healthy relationships, issues of sexuality or gender identity, or anything else beyond "the
basic mechanics "
These students have access to more information than any generation before them Still, their STI rates are climbing, and they often report not knowing precisely what to believe when they find information online or on social media
The Equal Voices curriculum is adapted to PPOSBC's existing high school and middle school lessons The curriculum includes Healthy Relationships & Consent, Puberty & Anatomy, Pregnancy & Birth Control, Sexually Transmitted Infections, Gender & Sexual Orientation, and Online Safety & Safer Social Media
"The only difference is that they include fewer words and more pictures for PPOSBC's expert Health Educators to adapt to the class In addition, this allows them to add more or less information to each topic based on where the students are developmentally," Mercado explained
The program also focuses on topics relevant to students with adaptive needs, such as "good touch/bad touch" and the difference between public and private spaces "When the teacher identifies participants as having a higher cognitive level, PPOSBC allows a standard middle or high school presentation The content remains the same, but the Health Educator adapts the tone and delivery to meet the class's needs," Mercado added
But despite the strides made by Equal Voices, Mercado acknowledges there is still much work to be done "STI rates are rising nationwide among adolescents, and according to the CDC, a major culprit is a lack of comprehensive sexual education "
Parents and caregivers play a crucial role in this education, and PPOSBC encourages active participation "We offer
a parent preview so they can view the materials before they are given the education We take that opportunity to encourage parents and caregivers to continue this education at home and be that trusted adult," said Mercado
The goal of Equal Voices and comprehensive sex education is not just to prevent sexual abuse, exploitation, and unwanted pregnancies It's also about empowering students with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their bodies and lives
May is Sex Ed for All Month, which reminds us of the importance of comprehensive sex education and the gaps in our schools' curricula that contribute to the rise in STI rates and other adverse outcomes
It is a call to action to address these shortcomings and ensure the most vulnerable students feel empowered with knowledge about their bodies
Mercado said, "We strongly believe that everyone deserves access to sexual education, and it can save a person's life " However, the fight for comprehensive, inclusive sex education is far from over, and for organizations like Planned Parenthood and advocates like Mercado, every step forward is a victory
In a world where information is abundant yet misinformation is rampant, students must have access to accurate, comprehensive, and accessible sexual education
Equal Voices is one such initiative bridging the gap Still, the collective effort of schools, parents, and society is needed to ensure that no student, regardless of their abilities, is left in the dark

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"

As California State University, San Bernardino is about to wrap up its inaugural year as the first university in the Cyber Halo Innovation Research Program (CHIRP), its initial group of four students has made their mark in advancing the program created to develop and grow the cybersecurity workforce to build stronger, more flexible and secure space borne assets
The CHIRP program was created by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and the U S Space Force’s Space Systems Command (SSC), which brings together government, industry, colleges and universities to provide students a direct two-year pathway to a cybersecurity career at SSC or their industry partners Cal State San Bernadino is the first institution of higher education to join the program
The four CSUSB students, Abigail Gutierrez Deniz, Jason Handen, Aubrie Kendall and Darlene Tarin, worked as a team over the summer of 2022 to research and write a paper in the category of Managing Cyber Risk to Missions, said Vincent Nestler, an associate professor of information decision sciences and the director of the CSUSB Cybersecurity Center
The four students were invited to give a presentation of their research at the DoD UC2 Workshop held in the DoD National Defense University at Fort McNair, Washington, D C , on Nov 16 Ultimately, the CSUSB students’ paper took first place in their category, and they were invited to publish the paper in “Joint Forces Quarterly,” which is the journal the secretary of defense reads, Nestler said
To show the significance of their work, Nestler said the winning paper in a different category was researched and written by 17 schools
“I don’t know that you can compare them,” Nestler said “I’m not trying to say these four students are better than 17 schools; what I’m saying is that there was significant effort put in by a bunch of other schools to compete ”
CHIRP identifies students in their last two years of undergraduate studies who want to focus on becoming research scholars and upon graduation they’ll work either with a lab or at Space Force or potentially become one of their partners or people that work with them, Nestler said
Students who participate in CHIRP receive two years of intensive training designed specifically to equip them for careers protecting the nation’s vital space-based technologies from cyber threats The students complete a two-year fellowship, including tuition assistance, professional development and a compensated research experience The students complete an internship between their junior and senior years and are hired when they graduate They have to commit two years afterward, Nestler said
Throughout the program, the students work closely with mentors from PNNL, SSC and industry on space-related cybersecurity research projects, using tools and techniques that apply directly to the types of challenges they
will face in their future careers The students meet with their mentors once a week They research and discuss different ideas and try to put together additional research that will support what Space Force is doing for their mission
The four CSUSB students, who come from Riverside, Moreno Valley, Hesperia and Muscoy (San Bernardino), have all expressed an interest in continuing to work in the cybersecurity field as a career after completing the CHIRP program and two-year job commitment
Kendall, who is working toward a master ’s degree in public administration with a concentration in cybersecurity, said her ultimate plan is to learn as much as she can in cybersecurity and use that to advance to an executivelevel position in a federal organization and “make sure to serve and protect the nation ”
Kendall said she became interested in cybersecurity as a high school teacher
“One year when I was teaching, there was an emergency announcement that the network system was down and that all teachers were to report to an emergency afterschool meeting At the meeting, teachers were informed that the network system was down due to ransomware Around the same time, I received a flyer for the Cybersecurity Open House at CSUSB,” Kendall said “I saw that as divine fate and attended From there I saw my path layout into the cyber workforce and decided to apply to start my journey ”
Gutierrez, who moved to Hesperia three years ago, but grew up in South Central Los Angeles, is majoring in intelligence and crime analysis with a concentration in cybersecurity She said her ultimate goal is to work for Space Force Command or Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and help mentor future cybersecurity students
Gutierrez became interested in cybersecurity when her uncle gave her a desktop computer
“I was so intrigued with all the functions and hardware it had I remember I spent hours looking at all the functions and applications I was just amazed by the things you can do with a computer, said Gutierrez, who added that her interest was increased from all the recent cyberattacks organizations and people have faced in losing their information due to a hacker gaining access
“It made me realize the importance of keeping information secure, but also that we needed to know how to defend ourselves from these attacks Sometimes it is just information from individuals that affects only them, but imagine if that were to happen to the country; a lot of people would be affected,” said Gutierrez “We need more individuals to help defend our country and I want to be part of that ”
Handen, who lives in Riverside, is a junior majoring in information systems and technology with a concentration in cybersecurity He will be seeking and maintaining em-
ployment as a civilian at the Space Command Systems or at the Los Angeles Air Force Base with the goal of continuing to work in cybersecurity whether in the public or private sector depending on the job duties and feelings of personal satisfaction
Handen said he always had a passion for technology
During high school, he largely focused on mathematics and science, and while finding great success, neither seemed like a proper career fit He enrolled at Riverside City College (RCC) with a tentative major in computer science and while interesting, the job market and associated lifestyle did not appeal to him But that changed after an instructor ’s suggestion
“A professor at RCC recommended CSUSB for its cybersecurity programs and scholarships, and the rest is history,” Handen said “I had finally found a degree program that matched my interest and skillset!”
Taren, who lives in Moreno Valley, is a junior also majoring in information systems and technology with a concentration in cybersecurity

“Participating and having amazing coaches is what started my interest, as I have never experienced what cybersecurity entails ” Taren said “It gave me a taste and I have wanted more ever since ”
Nestler said the research paper the four students were assigned to work on was based on a request by the Department of Defense for information on zero trust, which is a strategic approach to cybersecurity that secures an organization by eliminating implicit trust and seeks continuous validation at every stage of digital interaction
“The goal of our students paper was to help the DOD become more flexible, resilient and quicker to respond to risk,” Nestler said
“They put together a few concepts along with input from Space Force, PNNL, myself, and they conducted research and wrote about it,” said Nestler, who made some comments, but it was the students’ paper “They got together, worked nights and weekends, and kept doing research, trying stuff and talking to people And they wrote it, rewrote it, rewrote it again and then boom ”happen to undergraduate students ”
Kendall said being invited to publish their paper in Joint Force Quarterly was a validation of the amount of hard work and effort the team put into the research of the paper and the mentor ’s support to make it happen
