FROM THE PUBLISHER VO L . 8 , N O. 3 TM

Welcome to the ‘20s

I

t’s easy to get excited for a new year. Resolutions are made. People dream of what the new year holds. But a new decade is an entirely different beast. Welcome to the ‘20s! I can only imagine what this new decade will bring. The ‘20s will be the third decade of my adult life (considering adult life to be post-college). When I look back at everything that has happened over the past couple of decades, I can’t help but get excited for what’s yet to come. Our oldest daughter, Ashley, is scheduled to get her M.B.A. in May. Starting the ‘20s off with a major accomplishment, the coming years will certainly be exciting for her as she enters the first decade of her adult life. Our son, Peyton, and youngest daughter, Audrey, are in the middle of their high school years. They will experience high school graduation and their college years during the ‘20s – and then some. My wife and I will each hit a major age milestone during the ‘20s – yikes! And it appears, as long as things go as planned, that we are likely to become empty nesters later in the decade. How crazy is that? I hope that the ‘20s will deliver the same type of hectic joy that the last decade has brought. Although I would love for things to simply slow down, I can’t Derrick Breaux help but imagine how we will all look back at the ‘20s once Publisher they have come and gone. And since a new year and decade would not be as fun without resolutions, rest assured that I have a few that I’m working on. You’ll have to stay tuned for the updates. Happy new year (decade) from the Breaux family to yours!

Regards, Derrick Breaux, Publisher

f Kat Hammock seems familiar, it’s because she was one of the final eight contestants on Season 17 of NBC’s The Voice, which just wrapped in December. Describing her life-altering stint on the program, Kat exclaimed, “Honestly, the whole show felt like a long, fun summer camp. Every second I got to be on set and work with professional musicians and mentors was an incredible blessing that I’m still trying to wrap my head around.” Her life as an Encinitas teen had been fairly ordinary while she was finishing up her senior year at La Costa Canyon High School, until out of the blue a casting agent contacted her about auditioning for The Voice after seeing her sing and play piano on her YouTube channel. Kat admitted, “I never thought music was something I was good enough to pursue. I didn’t have the confidence in myself to believe that I could sing for such successful people in the music industry, and I definitely didn’t think I could get a chair turn!” Kat has since gained enough confidence to realize that she wants a singing career for her future. “Looking at who I am coming out of this experience compared to who I was going into it is really mind blowing,” she

said. “I learned that I am capable of pursuing my passion, and that there are people out there who genuinely want to support and listen to my music.” Crediting her family for keeping her grounded as she embarks on her musical goals, Kat proclaimed, “I have four older siblings who are my best friends, and who encourage and inspire me to pursue my passion. My parents are also so generous, compassionate, and supportive, and they’ve set a wonderful example of how to live a life for God and for others.” Kat is involved in the community by teaching piano and vocal lessons, and singing for Sunday Masses, weddings, and funerals at her church. Even though Kat will be attending the University of Virginia this fall, she will still make time to write, record, and release an upcoming album. She revealed, “I want to take the connections I made with other artists and musicians and use them to grow and put my music out into the world.” 

Remembering Kira

COMMUNITY RALLIES TO HONOR ENCINITAS TEEN photo by Soul of Photography

A

uthentic, tenacious, thoughtful, funny, perceptive. These are the words Wendy Stanley, the mother of 18-year-old Kira Stanley, chose to describe her daughter, who passed away from a rare form of brain cancer on Dec. 25, 2019. Kira was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) in 2017, just two months after her 16th birthday. She fought the disease publicly, with Wendy posting regular updates on the Facebook page @kirascancerupdates, drawing a following of over 20,000 people. Kira’s great uncle, actor Jim Beaver, also tweeted about her diagnosis along with a link to the Stanley family’s GoFundMe page, resulting in widespread support that helped raise more than $400,000 to partially cover her medical expenses. Kira was beloved by those in the Encinitas community and beyond for her positive attitude and fiery spirit, even attracting

attention from public figures like pop star Billie Eilish, professional surfer Kelly Slater, and former president Barack Obama. She loved to surf, draw, write, listen to music, watch food shows with her mom, and spend time with her friends, boyfriend, and dogs. “If there was anything that Kira loved the most it was sharing and connecting with others. Sharing her life, her feelings, her observations – and even more than sharing her own experiences, Kira loved to connect with the experiences of others, on all levels,” Wendy said. The Stanley family, which includes Wendy, Kira’s father Robert, and her older sister Zane, dedicated Jan. 18 to celebrating Kira, with a memorial paddle out at Moonlight Beach in the afternoon, followed by a Big Ol’ Life Celebration Party, per Kira’s request, at the Del Mar Fairgrounds that evening. At least 1,200 people joined in the celebration party, complete

with a DJ, live music, pink hair extensions, a temporary tattoo station with Kira’s artwork, a photo booth with Kira-inspired props, donation raffle, and drinks and food – including Kira’s favorite, Chick-fil-A. Guests traveled from as far as Arizona, Iowa, Minnesota, Texas, and Mexico. One couple in attendance, who had never met Kira but lost their own son to DIPG, even traveled from Seattle, WA to show support and honor Kira’s life. “Anyone who shares their experience of knowing Kira – how they met her, what she meant to them, how she impacted their lives – they have a resounding common theme. They felt important to her. She made everyone she interacted with feel as though they were the only one that mattered and that they felt understood and accepted by her,” Wendy said. “This is her legacy. Love each other. Be kind. Be real. Be honest.” 

“If there was anything that Kira loved the most it was sharing and connecting with others.”

San Diego Theatre Week 2020 San Diego Theatre Week, a program presented by the San Diego Performing Arts League (SDPAL), returns for a week of special promotions to live theatrical, musical, dance, and comedy performances across the county from Feb. 13 to 23. The annual event highlights the variety and enhances awareness of San Diego’s diverse performing arts community, with tickets available at $15, $30, and $45 levels. Participating performing arts groups include: Diversionary Theatre, OB Playhouse, Star Theatre, National Comedy Theatre, PowPAC, Oracle Performing Arts, Lamb’s Players Theatre, New Village Arts, Cygnet Theatre, The Old Globe, Lyceum Theatre, La Jolla Playhouse, North Coast Repertory, Oceanside Theatre Company, Patio Playhouse, Scripps Ranch Theatre, Mandeville Auditorium, San Diego Civic Theatre, and Point Loma Playhouse, among others. For more information and tickets go to www.sandiegotheatreweek.com.

Local Author Publishes Second Novel A group of students from Pacific Ridge School, including 92024 resident Jake Sager, recently visited 75 fourth graders at Poinsettia Elementary School to present about nutrition and making healthy choices. The service learning group, called Health Nut, is dedicated to addressing nutrition shortfalls and food waste in the San Diego region. “Our presentation focuses on differentiating between natural and processed foods and maintaining balance,” explained Kimberly Cheung, a senior in the group. “An exposure to these simple concepts creates a consciousness towards food that can positively influence all aspects of a student’s life. The food we eat directly affects our health and happiness, and we are so excited to have the opportunity to share this message with our community!” Other service learning groups at Pacific Ridge School include Alternative Energy Sources, Kids for Peace, and Sea Safe Surf.

Local Fundraiser Seeking Sponsors Soroptimist International of North San Diego (SINSD) and Soroptimist International of Poway (SIP) are currently seeking sponsors for their annual joint fundraising event. Soroptimist Hats & Heels, scheduled for April 5 from 12 to 4 p.m. at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar, is a luncheon, auction, and fashion show. All proceeds benefit SINSD and SIP’s Transitional Housing Program for survivors of domestic violence, as well as other programs empowering local women and girls. This year’s event is early ‘70s themed, with period-appropriate fashion and entertainment by six-time Grammy Award-winning Fifth Dimension. Sponsors and donations are welcome to help make this event as exciting and successful as it is every year. Contact Sponsor Chair Pam Warnock at warnockpam@yahoo.com to learn about available opportunities, or learn more about the event at www.sihatsandheels.org.

North County resident and young adult author Nikki Katz recently published her second novel, The King’s Questioner. The book, published and distributed by Swoon Reads, is about a boy named Kalen who has been cursed with a gift: he’s a mental picklock, able to access a person’s memories and secrets by touch. His skills make him the perfect questioner to the king, and he spends his days interrogating prisoners of the crown. But when Kalen’s estranged childhood friend, Prince Cirrus, falls into a sudden coma, the king begs Kalen to intervene. By accessing Cirrus’ mind, Kalen saves his life – and uncovers a terrifying secret that could topple the kingdom. Nikki is also the author of The Midnight Dance, as well as four nonfiction puzzle and games books. “I’m so very thankful for my readers,” Nikki said. “I love the idea that something (beyond my children) will live beyond me. Some time, some year, some place, a child may pick up one of my books and read it.” The King’s Questioner is available anywhere books are sold, including most online bookstores.

SDUHSD Receives CTE Program Grants Coastal Community Foundation recently awarded $25,632 in grants via the EdVentures Fund to San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) to support its Career Technical Education (CTE) programs, as well as $20,179 in grants to Carlsbad Educational Foundation. Teachers from SDUHSD and Carlsbad applied for up to $1,500 for use in their classrooms. A total of 38 grants were awarded to CTE and Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) teachers at Oak Crest Middle School, Pacific Trails Middle School, San Dieguito Academy, Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines High School, La Costa Canyon High School, Carlsbad High School, and Sage Creek High School. The CTE programs offered at SDUHSD high schools encompass a series of coursework that educates, inspires, and prepares students for careers in the local labor industry, ranging from manufacturing, business management, automotive technology, and biomedical engineering to theater arts, ceramics, choir, and broadcast journalism.

Community Resource Center Lends a Helping Hand to Those in Need

C

ommunity Resource Center (CRC) was born from the community’s desire to help those facing homelessness and

food insecurity. Today, 40 years since its inception, the organization continues to address these issues and has also expanded its services to support victims of domestic violence. Through its integrative programs and services, CRC is creating pathways to safety, stability, and selfsufficiency for the people who need it most. Join our conversation with CRC CEO John Van Cleef to learn more about how the organization works to lift others up.

18 • 92024MAGAZINE.COM • February | March 2020


Q&A with Community Resource Center CEO

John Van Cleef Please give us a brief history of Community Resource Center. When was it founded and why? CRC was established in 1979 by local business, faith community, and civic leaders to respond to the social issues of food and housing insecurity. In 1994, it expanded its services to include providing emergency and transitional sheltering to survivors of domestic violence. I often describe CRC as the child of this community’s compassion for its neighbors, and its capacity to do something to help. What is the overall mission of CRC? CRC’s mission is creating paths to safety, stability, and self-sufficiency for people who are hungry, homeless, and hurting. We do this because we believe all people should have equitable access to healthy food, stable housing, and safe homes. Can you tell us about CRC’s domestic violence programs? How does CRC help victims? one in three children, one in four women, and one in seven men experience domestic/relationship violence. CRC provides emergency sheltering for people who are fleeing domestic/relationship violence at Carol’s House, transitional housing for survivors of domestic violence, and licensed therapy for these survivors. CRC also does prevention education in local junior and senior high schools so we can help stop domestic/relationship violence before it starts.

Carol’s House is a confidentially located emergency shelter for people who are fleeing domestic violence – women, children, and occasionally men – and available to people from the region, county, state, and country. In addition to safe shelter, Carol’s House provides residents with services like case management, legal advocacy, and licensed clinical therapy. The Therapeutic Children’s Center serves children under the age of 18 who live at Carol’s House, one of our Transitional Housing units, or whose families participate in our off-site Transitioning to Independence program. The Center is an important place for Carol’s House residents because, at a very basic level, it provides a safe place for children to be children and play, but at a deeper level, it helps parents and children recover from the trauma of abuse through intergenerational therapy and support groups. Please tell us about CRC’s integrative services and other programs.

C O V E R F E AT U R E point between a person in need and the menu of interventions or referrals people need. It involves intake, assessment, case management, therapy, and followup. It connects people to resources like: food, rent, utility assistance, and government benefits, and also delivers the Opening Doors program – a feature program funded by the City of Encinitas. Opening Doors focuses on placing previously homeless Encinitas residents in permanent housing. In addition to the funding from the City’s budget, CRC accomplishes these goals with a mix of public funding and private donations. We are currently in year four of the partnership. The program has served a total of 94 households and 138 individuals to date. Which communities does CRC serve? CRC’s primary service areas are the North Coastal communities of San Diego County, but the programs providing domestic violence intervention have county, regional, state, and national reach. What is your current role within the organization and how did you first become involved? Please elaborate on your specific responsibilities. I am CRC’s CEO, and started in this role in September 2018. Supported by CRC’s board of directors, staff members, and volunteers, I am responsible for providing leadership for CRC and making sure we continue to meet the needs of vulnerable people living in our community.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your role? The most challenging? The most rewarding aspect of my role is daily seeing the compassion and capacity of our community to help their neighbors in need through the programs and services CRC provides. I get to accept and steward generous gifts of time, talent, and treasure, as well as participate in the lives of people who need compassionate help. The most challenging aspect of my role is also being a voice for community conscience – speaking up and advocating for subjects that are uncomfortable to acknowledge and address. one in five San Diegans don’t know where their next meal is coming from. 860 residents of Encinitas served by CRC identify as homeless. one in three children, one in four women, and one in seven men experience relationship/domestic violence. Can you tell us about CRC’s events throughout the year? CRC has two fundraising events every year: English Tea (to be held this year on April 4) that helps increase awareness of our domestic violence programs, and Jingle & Mingle that features our

Holiday Baskets program; both events raise funds for our year-round programs. We also host quarterly VIP events that provide updates on what’s happening at CRC, as well as bi-monthly Open Houses. This year the English Tea will feature a silent auction, raffle, and a short program. Each guest will enjoy homemade tea sandwiches, scones and sweets, champagne, and tea. The program will feature keynote speaker Dr. Ami Roeschlein, a published clinician, consultant for the National Council for Behavioral Health, and CRC’s Clinical Supervisor, on the topic “What is resilience, and how does it build community?” She’ll share how the resilience of a community supports the resilience of an individual, how the community’s help creates pathways to new lives for survivors of domestic violence, and, most importantly, how we can continue providing survivors with the best possible support and treatment to help them thrive. This event sells out every year, so please don’t wait to purchase your ticket! Holiday Baskets is a 37 yearold CRC program that provides food, clothing, and toys for families and individuals experiencing financial hardship during the holiday season. It’s designed to alleviate the additional financial stressors people experience during the holidays (for example, to pay for rent, utilities, and gifts) and help them keep up with their fixed expenses. People who benefit from


Holiday Baskets are current CRC participants, or live or work in the North Coastal communities. The community can get involved by donating, sponsoring a food or toy drive, and volunteering time. More information is available at: crcncc.org/integrative-services/ holiday-baskets. Please tell us about CRC’s resale stores. Where are they located? CRC has three resale stores in Encinitas, Carlsbad, and San Marcos. They are an important part of our business portfolio because they provide: social enterprise revenue that supports CRC programs, entry level and beyond employment opportunities for people, and necessary things like clothing and household items for CRC program participants. What are CRC’s short-term and long-term goals? Short-term, CRC is focused on: adapting programs to increase accessibility and impact; creating a staff and organizational development plan so we can be an employer of choice; and bring the best resources to bear on our community needs, sustainability of resources, and capacity building by addressing our business infrastructure (like accounting software and technology).

passion to give and CRC’s mission are aligned. Give your time. Give your talent. Give your treasure. CRC recently celebrated its 40th anniversary. What is your biggest dream for CRC in the next 40 years? That’s a big question…and if I’m fortunate I’ll be alive to see that. In one sentence, that CRC will continue to be this community’s expression of compassion and capacity to help its neighbors in need. In a long, run-on sentence: I hope the decisions we make today secure that future – adapting the delivery of our services to relevantly meet the needs of our vulnerable neighbors, affording people the opportunity to express their communityfocused, philanthropic legacy through the establishment of capital trust and program endowments, the renovation/ reconstruction of our current property on Second Street, as well as the expansion of our service locations. 

Long-term, we are looking at how to address our aging and dated buildings and property needs so we can provide the best possible service to people in our community. For example, most people don’t know we have clinical therapists on staff, and we need offices that are specifically designed for the service they provide to every socio-economic strata that exist in our community. How can the community support CRC? Learn about us through our website, our events, an Open House, or through an appointment. Figure out how your February | March 2020 • 92024MAGAZINE.COM • 21


STUDIO WEST T

he Recording Arts Center at Studio West is pleased to announce that the year-long Diploma in Recording Arts program has been approved by the Department of Veterans Affairs for VA funds. This means that The Recording Arts Center can continue to proudly serve veterans with the added benefit of funding support for the program. While the lack of fund support has not stopped veterans from joining the Diploma program in the past, now the Studio is able to better support a wider range of vets in starting a career in the field of audio engineering. “The approval by the VA’s office is a wonderful benefit that we are extremely pleased to offer our veteran students,” Peter Dyson, owner of Studio West, said in a recent interview. “The Diploma in

Recording Arts imparts so much useful knowledge and skill building that it has been a great way for our graduates to start a new career. That we are now able to offer it to more veterans with the support of their VA funds is amazing.” With the majority of eligible graduates and alumni using their knowledge to pursue a career, the year-long Diploma program offers a solid foundation for audio engineers. Classes are held in a worldclass studio and offer participants the chance to get hands-on experience in a professional environment. To learn more about joining the

program, with or without VA funds, please contact Todd Hunsaker, Director of Admission, at todd@StudioWest.com or 858-592-9497. More information can also be found at www.StudioWest.com. 
