Richa was elected to the new Steering Committee, where he is presently focusing on trying to make it a more democratic process.

This year CRCI did get a grant which benefited national as well as local with books to get into the community. The Peace Festival still flourishes thanks to BSW interns from a local college. Judi left the neighborhood association board this year after six years.

That was crucial in gaining our Governor’s support this October, which puts us another step closer to comprehensive statewide legislation. This is part of a growing movement for effective national health care legislation that will cover everyone…at less cost than our present system!<br /><br /><br /></span><span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">There has been a rash of shootings</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">in Grand Rapids this year, sparking some to initiate a “community voice” forum, looking for solutions. At the first public forum asking the community for solutions, many spoke out for more “discipline” of children, meaning first and foremost more physical punishment.</span><br /><br /><br /></span><span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">Richa, one of the few “White” folks</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">involved, was the only voice calling for no hitting, of any kind, of children (the moderator asked twice, at first not believing he really meant that). But people are starting to pay attention, partly because that is in context of general research on what works in criminal justice, which Richa originally put together in 2000 after being repeatedly jailed essentially for being visibly homeless. Some of the folks concerned about this ongoing community violence are more receptive than the mostly “White” Commissioners and other City power-brokers who were presented with his findings in 2000.<br /><br /><br /></span></span><span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">Almost bi-weekly Richa and Judi</span> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">continue to join two others in what we call the 8 Step Program for Peacemakers from Marc Gopin’s book “</span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.quakerbooks.org/healing_the_heart_of_conflict.php">Healing the Heart of Conflict</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">” (which we recommended last year!!) It has been an extremely supportive group where we can work on conflict issues in our lives. Some of us have introduced this book in other places to start more groups. For Richa, especially, who has experienced some very un-peaceful acts and attitudes in the “peace” movement, the group has reinforced the idea that peace starts in each of our own lives.<br /><br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">Richa continues to publish Spoon,</span> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">a newsletter largely by and for homeless and disempowered folks in our area.
