In about half of the cases, these children understand abuse before they learn to read. 25-40 children die each year in North Carolina as a result of abuse. Almost all criminals report having been abused as children. More than 100,000 children are reported to authorities each year in our state. 85% of the time the perpetrator of child abuse and neglect is a biological parent. Parents who were abused as children are six times more likely to abuse their own kids.

Assessment of Need
It is easy to see that family-run businesses represent a large, diverse, important and, indeed, an essential aspect of commerce. Consider the evidence: the family firm segment of the economy is 90+% of all US businesses (in 1991), it contributes 40% of the total US GDP (1993 dollars), employs 59% of the US workforce, and is responsible for generating 78% of all new net jobs (between 1976-1990). (source: Melissa Carey Shanker and Joseph H. Astrachan, Family Business Review , Vol IX, No. 2, Summer 1996).
Family firms face many of the challenges found in large, public firms. In addition, they face a variety of unique issues inherent to family firms. The typical issues faced by family firms are varied and complex. It is in this context that the mission of the NC Family Business Forum was created.
Mission of the Forum

curriculum and resource
dedicated to the growth and success of
family businesses.

NC State Government Recognition Philosophy
INTRODUCTION...
the philosophy behind employee recognition:
“Genuine recognition of performance is something people really appreciate. People really don’t work for money. They go to work for it, but once the salary has been established, their concern is appreciation. Recognize their contribution publicly and noisily, but don’t demean them by applying a price tag to everything.” Phillip B. Crosby,
Quality is Free

The State of North Carolina is noted for having loyal, efficient and dedicated employees who provide valuable services to every citizen of the State. North Carolina is proud of this tradition of public service and the competent, committed and dedicated employees who provide these services to and for the state. To express its appreciation to its valued employees, the State has adopted a policy of recognizing employees for committed dedicated and outstanding service. Thus, the State Employee Recognition Program is a significant component of the Human Resources System. PROGRAM PURPOSE The purpose of North Carolina State Government’s Employee Recognition Program is to:
  • provide management tools to recognize ongoing employee dedication, a means to reinforce and acknowledge significant contributions, and retain employee commitment

About
The North Carolina Center for Missing Persons serves as the State's central repository for information regarding missing children and adults. Since its creation in 1985, the Center has worked with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to locate missing persons and reunite them with their families. North Carolina is one of the few states with a clearinghouse for missing adults as well as children. The Center plays a key role in solving both missing children and missing adult cases by providing police and sheriff's departments with technical assistance and serving as liaison between states and various governmental agencies. Each year, more than 10,000 people are reported missing to the N.C. Center for Missing Persons. The majority of reports to the N.C. Center for Missing Persons are for children who have run away. About 95% of the more than 7,000 children who are reported missing each year are recovered. Reasons for the disappearances include problems at home, health or mental issues, snags with the law, or a taste for adventure. Most eventually return or are found by law enforcement officers. Most cases do not involve foul play. Many adults who disappear don't want to be found, or they may have other problems such as memory loss, mental illness, or a history of drug use or alcoholism.

No data submitted at this time. II. Community Leadership Program Title: Community Voices: Leadership Development for Community Decision Making Program Description and Significant Outcomes: Community Voices develops groups of limited resource and other non-traditional leaders who can work together over time, identify important community issues and solve problems related to issues in their communities. Over 1000 new leaders were trained during the pilot in four states. Since then, North Carolina extension educators and leaders from the target communities have trained more than 700 new leaders. Communities have addressed or solved over 70 issues and 35 community organizations have evolved. In one county alone more than 100 limited resource parents graduated from the program in hopes of using what they learned to address the needs of their children. Describe the Audience: The program was designed to teach or enhance the leadership skills of limited resource and other non-traditional leaders who traditionally have not been actively involved in public decision making in their communities. These persons have often experienced many social, economic and educational limitations. The program however, has also been successful with other audiences.

20. Women In Prison In North Carolina
study the effects of prison visitation, family contact and prison programs on measureddepression in women. A facility for women in north carolina was studied
http://www.ncsociology.org/prison.htm
This is a review of An Inside View: Women in Prison, Depression and Family Ties by Jennifer D. Johnson.
Family Ties, Depression and Adjustment of Women in Prison in North Carolina
Since most persons in prison are released, what happens to the incarcerated is of great social importance. The goal of prison may be debated, the effects of prison on those who are deprived of their freedom ideally should be to return to society a functioning adult who is able to get on with life in a normal manner. Do prison programs help? Even though far fewer women than men are confined to prisons, in 1998 84,427 women were under the jurisdiction of state and federal correction authorities (Greenfield and Snell 1998). For women, the main concern upon being arrested remains, "Where are my children?" The majority of women in prison are mothers. The loss of self-esteem and identity of women in prison is associated closely with loss of contact with children and family. It would seem that the loss of contact with family results in a serious problem of depression for women in prison. Daniel (et al. 1988) found that 22 percent of women in prison may be meet the DMS-III criteria for major depression. In North Carolina Martin (et al. 1995) found 70 percent of women in prison had levels suggesting clinical depression using the well-known CES-D scale (see Radloff 1977). A control group of women not in prison using the same scale showed only 20-30 percent so affected. Like many 20-item scales, the CES-D scale asks respondents to answer a question using a Likert scale. For example, in the past week you might be asked, "I had trouble keeping my mind on what I was doing." The possible responses are: rarely or none of the time (score 0); some of the time (1-2 days) (score 1), occasionally or a moderate amount of time (3-4 days) (score 3); and finally, most or all of the time (5-7 days) (score 3).
