t is difficult to encapsulate the work of Family
Promise.
Its mission statement explains it best; Family
Promise of Morris County
is a non-sectarian, not-forprofit organization dedicated to ending the crisis of
homelessness faced by
Morris County families by
partnering with other public
and private agencies, religious congregations and
community volunteers to
provide shelter, case management and mentoring
services leading to self-sufficiency.
One of the main ways
that Family Promise has
served the homeless community in Morris County
has been through its interfaith network. More than 70
area congregations open
their homes of worship on a
rotating basis, to provide
temporary food and shelter
for those without housing.
Many volunteers throughout the county make this

t the beginning of the year, a new
recycling policy allowed Verona
residents to recycle cardboard,
such as shipping boxes, and chipboard,
from pizza, cake, and cereal boxes, along
with mixed paper, such as newspaper, junk
mail, and magazines, to be picked up at the
curbside.
In the past, this wasnt allowed. The reason being was that cardboard, as well as
chipboard, was more costly to the town because those items fill the garbage trucks
center is considering the needs of people released from prison and hospitals, and considering how they can help these people
find their place in society.
The center is able to do all this through
the use of government funding, and the
charity of various business, organizations
and individuals. They have trained staff on
site as well as the valuable donations of
their time by volunteers. They are currently
looking for a volunteer to help at the drop
in center.
Anyone interested in getting involved either as a volunteer or through donations can
contact Our Promise at 973-644-0100 or
ourpromise@familypromisemorris.org.
The drop in center is located at The First
Baptist Church of Morristown and is open
Mon. thru Fri. 1 p.m.-4:30 p.m.
on your smartphone. The app was developed by Verona resident Tom Cherry and
two of his tech friends, to help residents remember recycling pick-up dates.
Remyndr notifications tell residents the
pick-up type, what to include, and what to
avoid. Android and iPhone versions are
available. Simply type in the home address
and Remyndr automatically connects to the
pickup schedule. If things change, due to a
snowstorm, those on the affected route will
be alerted. To find the app, visit
Rmynder.org.
Helb hasnt been on the site, but he did
confirm that the app is helpful. He said the
new program is less expensive and environmentally friendly.
Verona residents who havent received
the new recycling brochure are welcome to
call the recycling office to obtain one. Or
the brochure can be downloaded from
www.veronanj.org/PublicWorks.

year has come and gone since I
have taken the reins as editor of
New View Media Group Newspapers and what a positive journey it has been.
Being part of a company that has doubled in size, from eight monthly papers to
17, has been so exciting but the greatest joy
for me has been being on the forefront of so
many wonderful stories that surround us
every day. Most other newspapers will fill
their pages with police stories, obituaries,
car accidents, suicides, murders, disasters,
law suits, political battles and controversial
issues that busy municipal governments and
school boards.
While every journalist craves that news
breaking story or that shocking incident for
that hard-nose reporter to capture all those
details whether gory or devastating, there is
nothing quite refreshing or satisfying than
covering a feel good story that tugs at heart
strings and puts a smile on ones face.

occer season will be kicking in
again soon and with that more cases
of kids getting hit with head injuries
due to heading the ball, running into posts
or even another player.
Measures have been taken by the
United States Soccer Federation to create
a policy to limit head balls by youth players. The new guidelines which may begin
in the fall of 2016 are expected to prohibit
players 10 years old and younger from
heading the ball. The regulations also aim
at reducing headers in practice for players
who are between the ages of 11 and 13.
Soccer organizations are not alone in
taking initiatives when it comes to concussion, whether it involves minimizing
or placing greater awareness on the impact a concussion can have on an individual, especially if the brain is not allowed
enough time to rest.
Dr. Catherine Mazzola, the director of
Pediatric Neurological Surgery at Morristown Medical Center and Dr. Richard Ser-
vatius at the Rutgers Stress and Motivated Behavior Institute (SMBI) are conducting a study to understand how head
injury affects brain functions such as attention, learning and memory.
Every year we see hundreds of kids
with traumatic brain injury (TBI), says
Mazzola, who has been treating children
with TBI since 1995.
Several young patients have come in to
Mazzolas care that were concussed from
heading a soccer ball or injured during the
game. Restricting head balls to younger
players may protect those young brains,
she agrees.
I think thats a good thing, says Mazzola. You only have one brain; its a good
idea to take care of that brain.
The safety initiatives were brought on
as a resolution from a class-action lawsuit
filed by parents and players in 2014
against U.S. Soccer, FIFA and the American Youth Soccer Organization regarding
negligence in treating and monitoring
head injuries sustained from playing soc-
cer.
According to that case, nearly 50,000
high school soccer players sustained concussions in 2010- more players than in
baseball, basketball, softball and
wrestling combined, according to a New
York Times article.
That kind of contact with a ball can do
damage to the brain tissue, says Mazzola,
and may only be apparent on a microscopic level.
One of the main obstacles in dealing
with concussion is that doctors can not diagnose a concussion based on a catscan or
MRI, says Mazzola. A person may have
no signs of a fracture or bleeding, but that
does not mean a childs brain has not suffered an injury.
Mazzola says more attention has been
given on the issue of concussion than it
has in the past based on more studies on
the impact that concussion can have on a
persons brain, especially when not given
enough time to heal or rest.
We didnt realize how much damage
is done when you have multiple concussions, says Mazzola. We have more
awareness of long-term effects of concussion. A child with a concussion will almost show signs of slow processing. After
time their cognitive performance will
function.
Weve realized how important and
damaging, how repetitive or mild, brain
damage is on the young brain, she explains. Mild brain injury can affect that
childs cognitive long-term outcome. The
younger the child, the more vulnerable because the brain is not fully developed
yet.
Younger children who head a soccer
ball also have neck muscles not as strong
as older children and can therefore face
some whiplash, she adds.
The younger they are the more they
are at risk for injury, says Mazzola, cofounder of the New Jersey Concussion
Center.

which requires them so seek a specialist
for monitored care. Students can experience learning problems after faced with a
concussion, especially if the brain is not
given enough time to heal.
There is a period of rest and rehabilitation for those with concussion, says
Mazzola. That message needs to get out to
teachers, parents and coaches that these
individuals need to be given adequate
time to rest.
You have to give your body and brain
time to heal, says Mazzola. Coaches
would say you just got dinged, but people are really realizing that even mild
brain injury is important. Its just as important as having an ankle injury or arm
injury.
They may look alright but they may
not be acting alright, she continues.
When in doubt sit them out, and have
them be seen by a medical doctor or concussion specialist. If you have any question, best thing is to pull them out and let
them rest no matter what you do.

or those who agree its better to
give than receive, there is an opportunity banging on the door of a
shelter organization that could help hundreds of women and children who may be
left on the street if the mortgage is not
paid.
Secret Santas may be long gone, but
there has to be an angel out there willing
to hold the mortgage of Strengthen Our
Sisters, a grassroots, community based
non-profit, program serving homeless/battered women and children for more than
four decades. Faced with mortgage conflicts, the shelter has to come up with
$30,000 by Jan. 15 to avoid foreclosure.
Established in 1977 as Shelter Our Sisters - the first shelter for battered women
in North America- the organization
changed its name to Strengthen Our Sisters (SOS) and grew to eight houses, two
day care centers, a food pantry and a thrift
store. The properties value a total of $2.5
million, with just under $600,000 left to
be paid. With restricted monies coming in,
the organization is at risk of closing its
doors to hundreds of women and children
with no other safe place to go.
I dont know what would happen to
these people, says Sandra Ramos of
Ringwood, founder and executive director
of SOS. If we dont get help with the
mortgage people will be on the street. If
someone wants to be an angel and save
our mortgage that would be great.
Ramos explains if we had the $30,000
it would be the drop down money if someone could give it.
Rialto Capital Management Advisors
in Florida, the company that is holding the
mortgage bridge loan, did not return
phone calls to New View Media Group as
of press time. Valley National Bank had
sold the mortgage to Rialto when SOSs
funding was reduced, says Ramos.
During this year and one half, they
have seen our reliability and commitment
to avoid foreclosure by paying $30,000
every three months, which is directly applied to the principal, along with a
monthly payment of $7,000, says
Ramos. SOS has done this faithfully, al-
