Abstract
            There were three major goals of this project, all of which emphasized the importance of medical awareness and education within the vulnerable populations of rural Northeast Florida.  The counties that were targeted were Putnam, Alachua, Clay, and St. Johns.  The respective cities were Palatka, Crescent City, Hawthorne, Keystone Heights, and Hastings.             The first step in accomplishing goal one was to locate the senior centers in surrounding counties.  After contacting senior center coordinators in Palatka, Hawthorne, Hastings, Keystone Heights and Bunnell, a consensus was reached on the two most important yet poorly understood diseases.  These two diseases were Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus.              These diseases seemed of particular interest to the senior centers of Northeast Florida because of their astounding prevalence and ensuing complications due to lack of disease management.  This type of educational outreach was presented in both clinical and seminar settings.             Several resources were used in an effort to disseminate comprehensive, concise yet useful information about Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus. The focus of the seminars was pathology and preventive methods such as proper nutrition, regular monitoring, diet and medication management. When I addressed the two diseases at the senior centers, the first topic was basic anatomy of the heart and pancreas.

Welfare Transition Program General Background Information
In October of 1996 two Acts (one Federal and one State) went into law that dramatically changed welfare and welfare work programs in the state of Florida. The October 1996 Federal Act: The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA), Public Law 104-193 eliminated the open-ended federal entitlement program, Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), and replaced it with the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) welfare program. The TANF program changed the nation’s welfare system from the receipt of cash assistance as an entitlement to one that requires work in exchange for time-limited assistance. The October 1996 State Act: The Work and Gain Economic Self-Sufficiency (WAGES) Act was developed to implement the requirements of TANF and to emphasize work, self-sufficiency, and personal responsibility as well as time-limited assistance. The WAGES program initially provided for child care, transportation, and other support services to enable welfare recipients to find and retain employment. The program was later expanded to provide up-front diversion services to potential applicants who might only need one-time or short-term assistance.

Education Creating A Climate for Job Growth Florida Means Business Strengthening Florida's Familes ... Print Tobacco Prevention Program
Governor Jeb Bush and Lieutenant Governor Toni Jennings advocate funding the Tobacco Prevention program, one of the most successful public health programs in the history of the state. The Bush/Jennings administration is committed to fighting tobacco use in Florida, especially among children and teenagers.
Florida
. According to the Florida Tobacco Survey, between 1998 and 2003 tobacco use declined by 56.8 percent for middle school students and by 37.3 percent for high school students. The tobacco prevention program has attained numerous other successes over the life of the program. Other successes include:

  • reaching approximately 1.5 million primary and secondary students with tobacco education since the inception of the program
    building and maintaining a Students Working Against Tobacco (SWAT) membership of 70,000 youth statewide
    founding SWAT clubs in 203 middle schools, 206 high schools, and 85 community facilities across Florida
    providing a Tobacco Prevention Coordinator in each county to assist with SWAT and education activities
    successfully rallying for the passage of tobacco product placement ordinances in 46 cities and/or counties across Florida
    incorporating tobacco curriculum into the five Florida medical school programs
Unfortunately, due to lean economic times and the need to fund essential health services, funding for the program was significantly reduced to $1 million during Fiscal Year 2003-04. However, the Bush/Jennings administration proposes $16 million for the Tobacco Prevention program for Fiscal Year 2004-05.

(Photos: Howard Robinson) FSU faculty member named Florida Family Physician of the Year for work as rural MD BY NANCY KINNALLY The Florida Academy of Family Physicians has selected Florida State University College of Medicine faculty member Dr. C. David Smith as Florida's 2004 Family Physician of the Year. Although he practices in a Panhandle town of fewer than 600 residents, Smith's impact is immeasurable to the people of Jay, Fla., and the surrounding area, where he has been the backbone of the health care system for 23 years. "As the recipient of the Academy's most prestigious award, we are proud to recognize Dr. Smith's ability to combine clinical excellence and compassion in a way that makes him an exceptional role model for patients, co-workers and a generation of aspiring family doctors," said Fleur Sack, M.D., president of the Florida Academy of Family Physicians. While he was once the only physician practicing in Jay, today the local medical community is thriving as a direct result of Smith's influence. Not only has he succeeded in recruiting at least a half dozen physicians to the area, but in his teaching role with the FSU College of Medicine's Regional Medical School Campus - Pensacola, he also is working to influence medical students to pursue careers in family medicine in rural areas.

Training Effectiveness Research Project
This research project is a two-phased effort related to a comprehensive training and certification program of the Florida Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) working in conjunction with the Professional Development Center. It is a project that seeks to establish an empirical basis for understanding those conditions that create successful, cost-effective training programs for Florida child protection counselors. The first phase of this research will determine the extent to which the job training impacts individual employee performance, and the second phase will determine the impact that this training enterprise has on the performance of the organization as a whole. As such, the research will address both transfer of training and organizational improvement. The project includes an analysis of both existing, as well as newly collected, data.
An Overview of the Research
Background of the Study
In 1996 The Florida Department of Children and Family Services began a new approach to training and certifying all state child protection counselors. This two-part program involves:
