Beef Checkoff-Funded Educator Program Helps Cultivate New Generation of Informed Consumers

Leave a comment


“As much as I enjoy farming, my true passion is education,” Wood said. “I was a teacher for 32 years, working in pre-K and elementary classrooms. Every fall when I’d bring cornstalks with ears attached to my classroom for a door display, many students wanted to know how I ‘made that corn’ because it didn’t look like the corn that was a part of last Sunday’s dinner. I was able to explain the differences between field corn and sweet corn. However, in urban areas, teachers usually don’t have an agricultural background, which is why sharing the farming experience with them through programs like On The Farm is so important.”

The twelfth and most recent On The Farm in-person tour took place in June, when 29 teachers and school administrators representing 70,000 students traveled to Colorado for an event hosted by the Colorado Beef Council. Participants visited with experts from across the cattle industry to better understand how to integrate animal agriculture into their STEM classrooms back home.

Day One included learning about elements of cattle feed. Attendees also began developing their own lesson plans centered around the involvement of STEM in the beef cattle life cycle. On Day Two, attendees toured Colorado State University’s AgNext research facility to learn about methane measurement and how researchers observe and research cannulated cows.

In addition to the in-person tours, the program included two pre-tour webinars that led up to the multi-day, in-the-field, immersive experience, one post-tour webinar and a structured professional development community. Previous On The Farm STEM tours have taken place in Portland (OR), Oklahoma City, Los Angeles, Nashville, Minneapolis, Fort Worth, Philadelphia, Syracuse (NY), Kansas City and Boston, providing different agricultural perspectives from around the country.

“AFBFA’s efforts go beyond the On The Farm tours,” Wood said. “They work with teachers across the country to integrate Checkoff-funded elementary, middle and high school beef curriculums into their lesson plans in multiple ways, like offering free resources, virtual workshops and so much more.”

By offering these well-rounded, immersive programs, the Beef Checkoff is giving hundreds of educators the knowledge and tools to effectively introduce students to beef production and the care and commitment beef producers dedicate to their herds.

“Connecting agriculture with science helps these STEM educators foster a new generation of consumers who are better informed about beef and beef production,” Wood said. “That’s incredibly important in today’s world where so much misinformation about agriculture and beef production exists. As a producer and an educator, I want consumers to better understand agriculture’s remarkable impact on us all – and the Beef Checkoff is helping make that happen.”

AltaPointe Health’s Supported Employment Program Empowers Individuals with Serious Mental Illness to Find Meaningful Work and Independence

Leave a comment


Each person’s needs, preferences, and abilities are recognized and documented to create a customized employment plan. This individualized profile helps AltaPointe employment specialists work with the individual to identify job opportunities that match their skills, interests, and goals.
Once employed, individuals receive ongoing support, including coaching, counseling, and job accommodations, to help them succeed in their chosen roles.

This approach aims to reduce stigma related to mental health in the workplace, both among employers and coworkers. It focuses on helping individuals become fully integrated into the workforce and community, promoting a sense of belonging and purpose.

“AltaPointe’s Supported Employment program is a valuable service that recognizes the unique challenges individuals diagnosed with a serious mental illness face and strives to create inclusive and supportive work environments where they can thrive. It’s an important step in promoting mental health and reducing the disparities faced in the workplace,” Tuerk Schlesinger, AltaPointe Health CEO, shared. “Furthermore, competitive employment is integral to recovery and supports AltaPointe’s mission to promote wellness for the populations we serve.”

The argument that individuals with a serious mental illness should not or cannot work is empty, as many can and do work effectively. AltaPointe’s current agency-wide data shows that 19.77% of adult consumers with a serious mental illness (SMI) work in competitive jobs, with 12.97% working full-time and 6.80% working part-time.

Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders of Kansas for 2023

NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders of Kansas for 2023. Frequently referred to as the epitome of the American heartland, there is no shortage of reasons to fall in love with Kansas. As many people know, the state is famous for being the air and wheat capital of the world, a prominent beef supplier, and Dorothy’s home state in The Wizard of Oz. But what some may not realize is how much Kansas’s economy is flourishing. In addition to its strong agriculture sector, the state also benefits from a diverse range of industries, including aerospace, energy, military, finance, manufacturing, and real estate, among others.

Central to this booming economy, there has been a notable rise in the representation of women in leadership positions, especially within leading companies located in Wichita and Topeka. Women now occupy prominent roles across diverse sectors, introducing fresh perspectives, innovative concepts, and inclusive decision-making approaches. This not only enhances organizational effectiveness but also fosters a more dynamic and thriving economy for the state of Kansas.

Among the honorees for this year, we have Rochelle Stringer, who serves as the General Counsel overseeing North, Central, and South America operations for Huhtamaki. In this capacity, Stringer is responsible for the management of all legal and corporate compliance affairs for 21 manufacturing facilities, encompassing approximately 4,500 employees and generating $1.5 billion in sales.

Another notable awardee is Raechel Peters, the President of BenefitsMe. With a background deeply rooted in marketing, Peters has garnered recognition from the Wichita Business Journal as a nominee for the 40 Under 40 award and is now a distinguished member of the 2023-2024 WBJ Career Women cohort. This year’s honors also extend to Pamela Breuckmann, who currently holds the positions of CEO and President at Ferrell Capital. Prior to her tenure at Ferrell in 2007, Breuckmann served as the Chief Financial Officer for a specialty finance company with a $500 million loan portfolio.
