Their goal is to make any disaster less severe and to improve recovery options for those who are affected.

ECA provides information and resources to help everyone who lives, works, or travels in earthquake country to prepare for disaster, to survive and most importantly return to a normal state after an emergency.

ECA selects worthy projects to fund with mini-awards that will fund resources or programs for earthquake preparedness.

CIMC applied for an ECA Emergency Water Project grant and was awarded $500.

Catalina Island Medical Center is the only source of medical services for 4,500 residents and up to 1 million visitors each year.

This grant money pays for the purchase of a hospital grade system to drain up to 400 gallons of potable water from the Medical Center’s five hot water heaters. Frequent disaster drills in coordination with local Fire and Sheriff personnel could incorporate the draining of one hot water heater to give “first responders” and hospital staff members the experience they need to access this emergency water source.

For more information on disaster or earthquake preparedness, call 310-510-0700.

Heft or Hype: How Much Do Women Leaders in Philanthropy Really Matter?

ANGLETON a Angleton ISD will be able to provide high school students with an expanded skill set to use in their future careers thanks to a $25,000 Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics grant from Educate Texas.

The school district will use the grant to enhance its STEM academy, particularly in the areas of health and computer sciences, said Angela Neal, Angleton ISDas advanced academics coordinator.

Neal said the district will use the grant money to boost the academy through professional development, equipment and curriculum.

aItas just allowed the opportunity to do that research and investigations to determine the best additions to the STEM academy,a she said.

Angleton ISD officials began the research aspects of the expansion as part of the application process and have some curriculum options they are looking to implement, Neal said.

aItas an ongoing process at this point to determine the best route for us,a she said.

Neal said the district is looking to add career accreditations, such as certified nurseas assistant and a computer science program from the University of Texas.

District officials are planning to have the additions in place by the fall, Neal said.

The Educate Texas grant creates additional opportunities for Angleton ISD students that the district might not have been able to afford otherwise, Superintendent Pat Montgomery said.

aThis is a significant amount of money for us,a she said.

School districts provide basic education for students, but grants such as this allow teachers to go beyond the primary curriculum, Montgomery said.

Current students are getting to experience more in terms of career pathways than previous generations, she said, and Angleton ISD wants them to have as many job choices as possible.

aKids today get exposed to so many more careers, so much more subject matter, and itas because of things like STEM Academy and these type of grants,a Montgomery said.

A $10 million pledge will help the University of Colorado create a new center dedicated to improving mental health services in Colorado.

The university announced Friday that the five-year commitment, one of the largest gifts ever to the university’s Anschutz Medical Campus, will finance a new National Behavioral Health Innovation Center in Aurora.

The gift came from The Anschutz Foundation and is designed to create what the university calls a “virtual center” to help people in Colorado and across the nation gain mental health training and expertise. The center does not plan to treat patients.

“We’re trying to work with existing services,” said Matt Vogl, executive director of the new center.

Part of its role, he said, will be to help businesses, schools and first responders recognize signs of mental illnesses early, when they are easiest to treat.

He likened that role to backstage workers at a theater production.

“We’re just there to get them up and running,” he said, “helping do whatever needs to be done.”

In a 2014 series, The Denver Post reported that Colorado spends relatively little for mental health services, that tens of thousands of people who need treatment get none and that prisons end up housing many people with advanced mental illnesses.

In December 2014, Colorado received a $65 million grant for mental health programs.
