Secretary Rita Landgraf welcomed about 80 mental health professionals, advocates and consumers to an April 1 conference, "Understanding Loneliness." Secretary Landgraf said loneliness is increasing, but especially for vulnerable populations such as people with serious mental illness, seniors, and people with other disabilities.
"As humans, we need those meaningful social interactions that people who care about us or provide," Secretary Landgraf said.
A 2010 AARP study of adults found that 40% said that they had been lonely, a figure that was double the rate in the 1980s.
The conference, sponsored by DHSS' Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health, also included a consumer panel, experts on statistics and trends, and recommendations for reaching out to people with serious mental illness.
It is okay to talk to dogs like humans. Understanding humans is one of the things dogs are good at. They read emotions, predict what their owners want and follow instructions.
Directly speaking to dogs makes them want to spend more time with their owner. Giving dogs treats have side effects like weight gain, but talking with them won’t make them gain excessive weight.
Like giving them treats, speaking with them is another way to show your dog love. And it helps your mental and physical health and the dogs.
A lack of understanding of a dog’s body language can lead to an unhealthy relationship between the dog and the owner.
Dogs always do things to engage with their owners, so if you can’t talk to your dog, use body language.
7 Ways To Talk To A Dog
Be Calm And Relaxed
when you are relaxed, take a deep breath, and you should understand that your dog is not acting up on purpose.
Be aware that boredom can cause your dog not to understand your language. Don’t be tense; your dog can sense that and will most likely not take your instructions seriously.
Avoid being mad when you are with your dog; it will make him stressed out. Practice deep breathing exercises or deep yawning and help your dog calm down when he is overly excited or anxious.
Be moderate with how your treat your dog, or it may be difficult for your dog to obey instructions or calm down. Make your dog happy, play with your dog, and take him out to avoid getting bored.

It is understanding that gives us an ability to have peace. When we understand the other fellow's viewpoint, and he understands ours, then we can sit down and work out our differences.

Terre des Hommes started a pilot project in Ukraine to help children affected by the war.
'My Friend' is a mental health and psychosocial support initiative combining cognitive behavioural and emotion-focused therapy. This programme equips participants with physical and mental strategies for recognising emotions, understanding stress levels, and effectively reducing stress.
The programme includes 12 group sessions tailored for children aged 5 to 7 and their caregivers. In Ukraine, over half of the participants are internally displaced persons from frontline areas affected by military operations.
Through their participation, children and caregivers develop emotional awareness and learn several coping strategies to manage distress.
Storytelling is a central feature in the programme, with Lando the hare as the main character guiding the narrative. In each new session, Lando encounters a new obstacle he must overcome. The children also create puppets through which they express their emotions.
The pilot project, funded by Giro555, was highly successful. Many caregivers noted their difficulty discussing emotions and recognised that the programme benefits themselves and their children.

The large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 marked a devastating escalation of the conflict following the 2014 annexation of Crimea and the occupation of parts of Eastern Ukraine. In response to this crisis, Cordaid has supported Ukrainians since 2015, providing crucial humanitarian assistance and fostering resilience through impactful partnerships with local Caritas organisations.
Caritas Ukraine and Caritas Spes swiftly deliver emergency assistance to conflict-affected regions nationwide. By prioritising local leadership, these partnerships empower Ukrainians to determine their needs and implement sustainable solutions.
Key initiatives include:
•Emergency Relief: Supporting displaced people in fragile and vulnerable circumstances in war-affected areas in the east with basic needs.
•Water Rehabilitation: Repairing damaged water systems and installing filtration units in heavily affected areas to ensure access to clean water.
•Healthcare Programmes: Establishing nine medical centres that provide integrated services, including primary healthcare, psychological support, and palliative care. These centres are designed to achieve financial sustainability through government support.
•Livelihood Recovery: Helping displaced people rebuild their lives through business training and start-up grants.
•Palliative Care Expansion: Meeting the rising demand for home and hospice care for displaced elderly and chronically ill, impacted by the ongoing conflict.
By late 2024, over 3.7 million people remained displaced within Ukraine, with 6 million more seeking refuge abroad. The war’s toll on housing, infrastructure, and mental health has created urgent needs. An increasing number of families deal with the loss of family members, mostly husbands, sons and fathers, and demobilised veterans are struggling to reintegrate into society.
Cordaid’s recovery programmes address these challenges by:
•Providing emergency relief to newly displaced individuals, particularly in eastern regions.
•Offering psychosocial support and rehabilitation for civilians affected by the war and for veterans and their families.
•Supporting essential utilities, including water systems, electricity, and winterisation supplies.
As the conflict continues, Cordaid remains committed to a dual emergency relief approach and sustainable recovery that considers new needs.
By strengthening partnerships with the Ukrainian Caritas branches and other local organisations, fostering local leadership, and ensuring financial sustainability, Cordaid aims to build resilience and restore hope for the millions affected by this devastating war.
Through collaboration, innovation, and a focus on evolving community needs, Cordaid is helping to create a path forward for Ukraine—one rooted in dignity, resilience, and hope for a brighter future.

#llbySKLD Ch3 takeaways: Novices are faster than experts in only one area of problem-solving: Understanding the problem // True learning happens when learners actively construct knowledge constantly thinking about how new information confirms or challenges their beliefs or ideas. NB: Beware confirmation bias! // "Practice is the visible face of understanding." Changing how a teacher understands (x) can change how a teacher teaches (x). // True PLCs create a culture where teachers challenge existing beliefs and practices which leads to changed teacher learning which in turn begins to change student learning. // Teacher learning Essential Question: "What do you need to learn to support the work you do with students?" NB: Every teacher will likely answer that question differently.
