Iowa Autism Council By-Laws and Operating Procedures, Revised 2012

These By-laws and Operating Procedures are designed to guide the membership and work of the Iowa Autism Council. The Iowa Autism Council is a collaborative resource that envisions its role as an advocate for children and adults living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (autism and Asperger's and other conditions represented on the autism spectrum) and their families. As such, it is committed to representing individuals with diverse and changing educational needs. Iowa Autism Council (IAC) shall have, and will perform, functions and duties as specified by law. Responsibilities include offering advice, consultation, and recommendations to Governor Culver and the Iowa legislature regarding matters concerning the ASD population. The role of the Council members is to advise, not advocate, for an individual position. Advise means to inform, counsel, recommend, suggest or guide. To advocate means to plead for your case or position, to favor an individual case or argument. The advisory Council is to provide advice, based on facts and good judgment.

Iowa Sex Offender Research Council Report to the Iowa General Assembly January 22, 2009

Over the last several years, lawmakers have been responding to several highly publicized child abduction, assault and murder cases. While such cases remain rare in Iowa, the public debates they have generated are having far-reaching effects. Policy makers are responsible for controlling the nature of such effects. Challenges they face stem from the need to avoid primarily politically-motivated responses and the desire to make informed decisions that recognize both the strengths and the limitations of the criminal justice system as a vehicle for promoting safe and healthy families and communities. Consensus was reached by the Task Force at its first meeting that one of its standing goals is to provide nonpartisan guidance to help avoid or fix problematic sex offense policies and practices. Setting this goal was a response to the concern over what can result from elected officials’ efforts to respond to the types of sex offender-related concerns that can easily become emotionally laden and politically charged due to the universally held abhorrence of sex crimes against children. The meetings of the Task Force and the various work groups it has formed have included some spirited and perhaps emotionally charged discussions, despite the above-stated ground rule. However, as is described in the report, the Task Force’s first set of recommendations and plans for further study were approved through consensus. It is hoped that in upcoming legislative deliberations, it will be remembered that the non-legislative members of the Task Force all agreed on the recommendations contained in this report. The topics discussed in this first report from the Task Force are limited to the study issues specifically named in H.F. 619, the Task Force’s enabling legislation. However, other topics of concern were discussed by the Task Force because of their immediacy or because of their possible relationships with one or more of the Task Force’s mandated study issues. For example, it has been reported by some probation/parole officers and others that the 2000 feet rule has had a negative influence on treatment participation and supervision compliance. While such concerns were noted, the Task Force did not take it upon itself to investigate them at this time and thus broaden the agenda it was given by the General Assembly last session. As a result, the recently reinstated 2000 feet rule, the new cohabitation/child endangerment law and other issues of interest to Task Force members but not within the scope of their charge are not discussed in the body of this report. An issue of perhaps the greatest interest to most Task Force members that was not a part of their charge was a belief in the benefit of viewing Iowa’s efforts to protect children from sex crimes with as comprehensive a platform as possible. It has been suggested that much more can be done to prevent child-victim sex crimes than would be accomplished by only concentrating on what to do with offenders after a crime has occurred. To prevent child victimization, H.F. 619 policy provisions rely largely on incapacitation and future deterrent effects of increased penalties, more restrictive supervision practices and greater public awareness of the risk presented by a segment of Iowa’s known sex offenders. For some offenders, these policies will no doubt prevent future sex crimes against children, and the Task Force has begun long-term studies to look for the desired results and for ways to improve such results through better supervision tools and more effective offender treatment. Unfortunately, much of the effects from the new policies may primarily influence persons who have already committed sex offenses against minors and who have already been caught doing so. Task Force members discussed the need for a range of preventive efforts and a need to think about sex crimes against children from other than just a “reaction- to-the-offender” perspective. While this topic is not addressed in the report that follows, it was suggested that some of the Task Force’s discussions could be briefly shared through these opening comments. Along with incapacitation and deterrence, comprehensive approaches to the prevention of child-victim sex crimes would also involve making sure parents have the tools they need to detect signs of adults with sex behavior problems, to help teach their children about warning signs and to find the support they need for healthy parenting. School, faithbased and other community organizations might benefit from stronger supports and better tools they can use to more effectively promote positive youth development and the learning of respect for others, respect for boundaries and healthy relationships. All of us who have children, or who live in communities where there are children, need to understand the limitations of our justice system and the importance of our own ability to play a role in preventing sexual abuse and protecting children from sex offenders, which are often the child’s own family members. Over 1,000 incidences of child sexual abuse are confirmed or founded each year in Iowa, and most such acts take place in the child’s home or the residence of the caretaker of the child. Efforts to prevent child sexual abuse and to provide for early interventions with children and families at risk could be strategically examined and strengthened. The Sex Offender Treatment and Supervision Task Force was established to provide assistance to the General Assembly. It will respond to legislative direction for adjusting its future plans as laid out in this report. Its plans could be adjusted to broaden or narrow its scope or to assign different priority levels of effort to its current areas of study. Also, further Task Force considerations of the recommendations it has already submitted could be called for. In the meantime, it is hoped that the information and recommendations submitted through this report prove helpful.

Seguretat i sostenibilitat: elaboració d'un model de procediment normalitzat de treball (pnt) com a eina docent per a l'autoaprenentatge en els tallers de les Facultats Belles Arts

La implementació dels nous graus requereix la integració dels conceptes i metodologies relacionades amb la seguretat, la prevenció de riscos laborals i la protecció del medi ambient. En aquest context, un equip de professorat de les facultats de Belles Arts (UB, UPV, UCLM) ha desenvolupat un projecte d'innovació docent, una de les parts fonamentals del qual, ha estat la ideació i la creació d'un model de procediment normalitzat de treball (PNT) i la seva aplicació en experiències pilot realitzades en diverses pràctiques als tallers i laboratoris. El PNT s'ha mostrat com una eina bàsica per a l'autoaprenentatge, que, així mateix, garanteix l'adquisició de les competències transversals relacionades amb la seguretat i la sostenibilitat.

La gestió integrada de la qualitat i la seguretat en la docència: pràctiques de taller i de laboratori als estudis de grau de belles arts

El projecte s'inscriu dins de l'àmbit de la investigació i innovació docent aplicant criteris de gestió de qualitat en els que es tenen molt presents els aspectes relacionats amb la seguretat i la sostenibilitat. El projecte promou la investigació generant models de funcionament i verificant la qualitat dels resultats de la seva aplicació. Des d'aquest punt de vista la recerca incorpora aspectes relacionats amb la seguretat i la sostenibilitat dels procediments, la manipulació de productes i materials, la gestió de residus i el seu reciclatge als tallers i laboratoris de les Facultats de Belles Arts. Els resultats d'aquestes investigacions tenen una extensió social en l'àmbit de les Belles Arts en general. Existeix suficient evidència empírica sobre el deteriorament de la salut i els danys que causen un gran nombre de substàncies, productes i materials utilitzats habitualment en les Belles Arts i es sospita sobre els potencials efectes negatius d'altres productes. A Espanya, també és conegut el limitat desenvolupament en matèria de prevenció laboral, de protecció mediambiental i en paràmetres de sostenibilitat en relació amb l'Espai Europeu i, especialment, al nord d'Europa. Es pot considerar, encara, la tímida i escassament coordinada, encara que progressiva, implantació de mesures orientades a solucionar aquestes deficiències per part de les universitats espanyoles i el seu insuficient finançament. En un context d'elevada sensibilització social i dels mitjans de comunicació sobre els efectes del canvi climàtic i la contaminació els processos de canvi s'han de liderar des d'institucions de rang molt divers. Amb els antecedents esmentats el grup d'investigació advoca per continuar desenvolupant diferents modalitats de recerca, buscant alternatives eficaces en aquest àmbit. Alternatives que contemplin la possible substitució d'uns productes per altres, la reducció d'aquells insubstituïbles, la implantació de procediments de qualitat verificada, l'adopció de mesures de seguretat de naturalesa preventiva o mediambiental, l'exploració de recursos sostenibles, etc. per solucionar en la mesura possible l'esmentada problemàtica.
