Investors and Roma Bank Community Support Trenton Area Soup Kitchen

$15,000 in Grants Will Purchase Food and Provide Meals

ROBBINSVILLE, NJ

–

The Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (T.A.S.K.) feeds those who are hungry in the Trenton area and offers programs to encourage self-sufficiency and improve the quality of life of its guests.

Recent grants from the Investors Foundation and Roma Bank Community Foundation totaling $15,000 will provide food for some of the 5,800 meals T.A.S.K. serves each week at its primary facility on Escher Street and

satellite locations in North Trenton, South Trenton, West Trenton, Hamilton, Hightstown, Princeton, and Yardville.

T.A.S.K. applied for the grants from the Investors and Roma Bank Community Foundations, which support non-profit organizations that enrich the diverse communities served by Investors Bank. Roma Bank became part of Investors Bank in December 2013.

According to Executive Director Joyce Campbell, in addition to providing food, T.A.S.K. also works to help nourish the minds of its guests. T.A.S.K. offers an Adult Education Program (18 years and older) that provides one-on-one tutoring in basic literacy, math, High School Equivalency Test preparation, and computer skills. According to Campbell, “Volunteer tutors offer caring, friendly assistance.” Students meet with the program coordinator to set their own goals and timelines. All of the necessary materials – books, notebooks, pens, and even reading glasses – are provided by T.A.S.K.

“T.A.S.K. could not turn hunger to hope for our patrons without the financial support of Investors Bank and Roma Bank Community Foundation. They play a critical role in helping T.A.S.K. meet its mission,” said Campbell.

Investors Bank District Manager Linda Martin and Assistant Vice President and Hamilton Center City Branch Manager Jason LaViscount presented the checks to Campbell. “Investors is proud to support T.A.S.K. in its mission to feed those in the Trenton area who are food insecure,” said Martin. “We know that your efforts go beyond feeding the hungry, and extend to providing assistance so your guests can gain self-sufficiency.”

“T.A.S.K. not only feeds the hungry in the Trenton area,” explained LaViscount, “but offers hope and a vision of a better future for those it serves. The Investors and Roma Bank Community Foundations support your efforts as you work to strengthen the community.”

Sanctuaries to Release Illegal Immigrants Jailed for Rape, Murder, Child Molestation

Source Judicial Watch

(December 2019)–A national crisis generated by local law enforcement agencies offering even the most violent illegal immigrants sanctuary is driving federal officials to resort to desperate measures. Under a local-federal partnership known as

287(g)

, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is

notified of jail inmates in the country illegally so that they can be deported after serving time for state crimes. Unfortunately, a growing number of local law enforcement agencies are instead releasing the illegal aliens—many with serious convictions such as child sex offenses, rape and murder—rather than turn them over to federal authorities for removal. Judicial Watch has reported on this extensively and just a few weeks ago

outed

yet another elected law enforcement official who freed a child sex offender and forbids his department from honoring ICE detainers.

Now ICE is trying to strike preemptively by publicly

disclosing convicts

, complete with mug shots, scheduled to be released before they are actually let go by police in municipalities that proudly offer illegal aliens sanctuary. It indicates that the federal agency is determined to do its job amid a growing wave of local resistance. This month ICE targeted six offenders incarcerated in two Maryland counties notorious for shielding illegal immigrants from the feds. These are no boy scouts and ICE is pleading with authorities in Montgomery and Prince George’s counties to hand over the prisoners instead of freeing them into the community. Most are incarcerated for sexual crimes involving children, including rape and serious physical abuse that resulted in death. A couple of the offenders are in jail for murder and assault and ICE wants them all transferred to its custody, so the illegal aliens don’t reoffend.

“The county leadership has chosen misguided politics over public safety,” said ICE’s Baltimore office director, Francisco Madrigal, in the

statement

announcing the upcoming scheduled releases. “The individuals we have lodged detainers against have been arrested in the community and will likely be released directly back into that community under these dangerous policies. We aren’t asking Montgomery County or Prince George’s County to conduct immigration enforcement, we’re asking them to honor a lawful request to transfer these individuals into our custody where they can avail themselves of due process in the immigration court system.” Judicial Watch reached out to law enforcement officials in both Maryland sanctuary counties, but calls went unanswered. ICE reminds them that when local jurisdictions refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement, they betray their duty to protect public safety.

Besides Montgomery and Prince George’s counties, two other large Maryland jurisdictions—Baltimore County and the city of Baltimore—shield illegal immigrants from the feds and deportation. Maryland’s Attorney General, the state’s chief law enforcement official, issued a

legal memo

last year defending the practice. Complying with ICE detainers for criminal illegal aliens is voluntary, the Attorney General writes in the document, and state and local law enforcement officials are potentially exposed to liability if they hold someone beyond the release date determined by state law. In 2017, Baltimore’s Chief Deputy State’s Attorney instructed prosecutors to

think twice before charging illegal immigrants

with minor, non-violent crimes to shield them from Trump administration deportation efforts.

North Carolina is another state well known for releasing droves of illegal immigrant criminals back onto the streets after being jailed for serious state crimes. This fiscal year alone,

nearly 500 offenders

with ICE detainers were freed throughout the Tar Heel State. Just weeks before the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) disclosed those disturbing statewide figures, Judicial Watch

reported

that the elected sheriff of North Carolina’s largest county, Mecklenburg, released numerous violent offenders rather than turn them over to federal authorities for removal. Among them was a previously deported Honduran (33-year-old Oscar Pacheco-Leonardo) charged with rape and child sex offenses. Throughout his campaign, Mecklenburg‘s sheriff, Garry McFadden, promised to protect illegal immigrants and as soon as he got elected in 2018 he ended the program that notified ICE of jail inmates in the country illegally.

STUDY: Starting drinking young predicts hospital admission for acute intoxication

Newswise — In studies, younger age at first alcohol use has been associated with later alcohol problems in adult life, including heavy drinking and alcohol use disorder. That is the reason why around the world, as in the Netherlands, a key aim of alcohol policy is to postpone the age at first alcohol use. In a report published in the journal

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research

, researchers from the Netherlands have investigated whether age of drinking onset is a risk factor for alcohol intoxication among adolescents aged under 18 years.

The study was based on data collected between 2007 and 2017 in the Netherlands for the purpose of monitoring trends in pediatric hospital admissions for acute alcohol intoxication. Data from almost 5000 adolescents admitted for intoxication ─ for whom medical staff had logged additional information including age at first alcohol use ─ were analyzed retrospectively.

Among this group of adolescents, half had had their first alcoholic drink before age 15 years, and half when aged between 15 and 18 years. Those with earlier drinking onset were more often female, lower educated and raised in nontraditional family structures than those who started drinking later. Age at first alcohol use was significantly associated with age at hospitalization for intoxication. For those who started drinking at age 14 or younger, the average age at admission was 14.8 years, compared with 16.0 years for those with later drinking onset. The researchers showed that after adjusting for other factors that could influence the results, a year’s delay in drinking onset was associated with a 6 month increase in age at admission for intoxication.

The results suggest that interventions aimed at postponing first alcohol use could help reduce the risk of early acute intoxication, and provide further support for policies in the Netherlands and elsewhere that aim to delay drinking onset. The risk groups identified for young-onset drinking (girls with lower educational background a from nontraditional family set-up) could also help to target interventions to those most at risk.

Age at First Alcohol Use as a Possible Risk Factor for Adolescent Acute Alcohol Intoxication Hospital Admission in the Netherlands.
