Dutch funding Defence for Children DCI

150 Kaandorp and Meuwese, 1996, p. 121. The exact amount of money granted to DCI was probably somewhere between 25.000 and 50.000 Dutch guilders. In the request from the Permanent Representative to the Ministry, 50.000 guilders were asked for, but Nigel Cantwell and Jaap Doek recall a subsidy of about 25.000 guilders.

Fwd: Funding DCI- NL


Funding ‘Stan Meuwese took over the chairmanship of the DCI-Netherlands board in 1988. He was working for the Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sports at the time and had experience in youth policy and juvenile justice. In 1991 the ministry was reorganising and gave him the opportunity to work full time for DCI-Netherlands. As of January 1992, he became the Executive Director of DCI-Netherlands. He stayed on until 2007. He was the first paid employee. In that way, the Dutch government, through the Ministry of Health, greatly contributed to the development of DCI-Netherlands. The subsidy of the Dutch ministry stopped in 1995 and the organisation had to look for other funds. It has been quite successful at that. DCI-Netherlands has grown slowly but steadily, with approximately one new paid employee per year over the last fifteen years.’

10-year-old Porter County foster child’s death ruled a homicide

PORTER COUNTY, Ind. (WNDU) - Officials say a northwest Indiana boy who died in foster care back in April died of homicide.

The St. Joseph County Coroner’s Office says 10-year-old Dakota Stevens died from mechanical asphyxia, a kind of asphyxiation in which an object or physical force stops a person from breathing.

According to the IndyStar, Dakota was in the care of a foster parent on the afternoon of April 25 when first responders were called to a house in the 200 block of Falcon Way in Valparaiso for a “medical emergency.”

Dakota was taken to Porter Memorial Hospital before he was airlifted to Memorial Hospital in South Bend. The boy’s aunt, Ana Parrish, says he was taken off life support two days later.

Adoption law changes to have 'significant' impact

New laws streamlining the adoption process will have a "significant and really positive" affect on families going through the process, the health minister has said.

Regulations relating to the Adoption Act 2021 will go before Tynwald this month and if approved come into effect in July.

The regulations aim to speed up the decision-making and process of adoption, which is currently governed by legislation from 1984, and provide ongoing support once the child is settled into their adoptive family.

Health and Social Care Minister Lawrie Hooper said the new laws would make the process more "focused", but would "ultimately put the needs of that child absolutely at the heart of everything".

While the updated legislation received Royal Assent in October 2021, the Department for Health and Social Care has since been developing underlying regulations, with nine orders set to go before Tynwald - six of which require approval.

Kindred documentary: Filmmakers Gillian and Adrian share their story of reconnecting with Country and culture after growing up as adoptees in white families

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers are advised that the following article contains images of people who have died.

"If there's anything I've learnt in making this film, it's that I think the best thing anyone can do in their life is tell their story. Good, bad or indifferent," says Adrian Russell Wills.

Wills and his co-director and co-writer, Gillian Moody, have two powerful stories, but share one unique experience.

Moody, a Wodi Wodi woman, and Wills, a Wonnarua man, both grew up in white families.

As adopted Aboriginal children raised in affluent areas of Sydney's northern beaches in the late 1970s, they were both disconnected from Country and culture throughout their childhood.
