SUMMARY:CANCELED: Big Ideas: The Teenage Brain: Impacts on Despair\, Homelessness & Substance Abuse
DESCRIPTION:(Note: This event has been canceled.) \nWhat is unique about the development of teenage brains\, and what is different about teens’ experience of despair\, homelessness\, and substance abuse? Hear from Mary Ferrell\, Executive Director of the Maslow Project\, and Lacey Corbett\, MA\, Clinical Supervisor of the Maslow Project for insights into how teens navigate those types of challenges. \nMary Ferrell is the founder and Executive Director of Maslow Project\, www.maslowproject.com. Born and raised in Medford\, she graduated from Southern Oregon University and began working with homeless children and families through the Medford School District in 2000. After doing that work several years\, Ferrell saw the need for a “youth-centric” one-stop resource center where kids and families could quickly and easily access essential needs and support services all in one location. She founded Maslow Project as a grassroots effort in 2006 and earned 501(c)3 nonprofit status in 2009. Ferrell has initiated and developed programs including housing\, outreach initiatives\, and school-based programs that achieve an average of 92% on-time graduate rates year after year. She has served on numerous boards addressing housing\, children and family services\, and civil rights and is currently a Governor-appointed member of the Oregon Housing Stability Council. \nLacey Corbett\, MA\, LPC is a licensed therapist in Oregon. She obtained a Bachelor’s degree at Southern Oregon University and an Master’s from Naropa University in Boulder\, Colorado. Naropa is known for its outstanding Art Therapy program and contemplative-based (Buddhist inspired) education model. Corbett has 13 years of experience using mindfulness-based practices and Art Therapy – along with traditional counseling services – for individuals ages 11+. She provides therapy services to youth and families at Maslow Project (those experiencing houselessness)\, Lotus Rising Project (LGBTQ+)\, and Family Solutions (local high schools). Her experience includes the development of a Drop-in\, Open Art Studio at Maslow. In addition to operating a private practice\, she provides clinical supervision for Maslow Project case managers and brings a deep understanding of the unique challenges youth and families face in Southern Oregon. Other specialty areas are ADHD\, trauma\, grief and loss\, anxiety and depression. \nThe monthly Big Ideas discussion series features prominent local experts speaking on relevant and timely issues affecting our community. Lectures are jointly sponsored by the Ashland Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) and Jackson County Library Services.

SUMMARY:Class: Creating Genetic Networks From DNA Matches
DESCRIPTION:You’ve had your DNA tested and received a list of matches\, now what? \nIn order to apply your DNA results to genealogy you must first understand how a match is related to you. The first step in doing this is to organize your matches into genetic networks\, which will show you which branch of your family tree they belong to. \nJeanne Hoadley will demonstrate step by step how to use the Leeds method and the ancestry dot system to group your matches into genetic networks. An afternoon help session will follow from 1-3 pm so that you can practice your new skills with mentors standing by to help you if you get stuck. \nSee website to register.

SUMMARY:Thursday Evening Calm Abiding Meditaion
DESCRIPTION:This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice\, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support\, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do\, we release them and maintain our connection to the support. \n“From this practice\, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness\, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed\, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity\, freedom in the face of circumstances\, and ultimately Buddhahood.” \nFrom Meditation for Beginners\, by Bokar Rinpoche. \nTo attend Calm Abiding Meditation via Zoom\, email the office at OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG to join the mailing list. \n
