HELP ADDRESSING CHALLENGING OR CONCERNING BEHAVIOUR
Get help managing your emotions, so you can overcome anything life throws at you.
As a registered NDIS provider with over 25 years of experience in the community services sector, our behavioural support services are all about understanding why you or a loved one might use inappropriate or challenging behaviour, and what can be done to build capacity in a safe, enjoyable environment.
When receiving behavioural support, you'll have 1-on-1 access to one of our friendly and highly qualified behavioural therapists to ensure you're getting the attention you need. We understand that everyone likes to communicate differently, which is why we like to conduct an initial assessment to understand how you or your loved one like to communicate through behaviour, and how this could be affecting others.
Once we have an idea of communication and behaviour, we then typically conduct an assessment on the person's environment (i.e. where they live, where/if they work) to determine if this meets their everyday needs and wants, and how this could be influencing their communication or behaviour.
After the initial meeting and assessment has taken place, we then move to implement a positive behaviour support plan or skill development plan to ensure the person has a clear road map towards further building confidence, capacity and general well being.
Please note this services is only available to customers aged 8 years and older.

Our Behavioural Supports
If you have an existing NDIS plan, then you may be eligible to access our behavioural supports under Improved Relationships.
If you don't have a plan, we also offer fee for service and payment plan options to ensure you can get the help you need when you need it.
Behavioural Assessments
When you or a loved one are on the receiving end of a complex or seemingly negative behaviour, it can be hard to know where to even begin approaching the issue.
At breakthru, our friendly staff will work closely with you to conduct a behavioural assessment, which is one of the first steps we take toward creating a behavioural support plan. Once the assessment is completed, we'll have a better idea of the behaviour, the causes and the effects on the surrounding environment so we can put together an effective action plan.
Positive Support Planning
Once we've gained some insight into a person's behaviour, the next step is to develop strategies to encourage appropriate behaviour through a positive, person-centered approach.
When developing a Positive Behaviour Support Plan, we aim to observe any known behaviour, identify what causes or contributes to this behaviour and then devise a range of possible approaches and strategies for change that can be used by both therapists, family members and/or carers.
Skill Development Planning
Depending on the person and their individual needs, we can devise a range of Skill Development strategies to help the invdividual cope with different situations both at home, work or in the community.
With a Skills Development Plan, we'll help to provide training to ensure a person no longer needs to use behaviour that could have adverse affects on the environment around them. We'll also help to develop skills and coping mechanisms to ensure any behavioural response is safe and respectful.
Peer Support & Counselling
Sometimes the best form of therapy or support comes from your peers, or those that have lived through a similar experience. To ensure our customers have access to a full range of supports, breakthru host regular group therapy sessions and peer support groups to ensure there is an adequate support network available.
Each of our support groups are very inclusive and built around the shared personal experience and empathy of each individual attending. Our support groups are focused on positive reinforcement – focused on strengths rather than weaknesses, and working towards building capacity.
In most cases it's extremely beneficial for not only the individual to undergo education & training, but also for family members and carers to develop an understanding of the behaviour and its related causes as well.
As an experienced disability services provider, breakthru can help educate family, friends and carers on how to implement our recommended behavioural strategies, and can help to ensure that everyone understands the behaviour to ensure the plan is effective.

Virgin Galactic begins moving space effort from California to New Mexico spaceport
Spaceport America is becoming the true base of operations for Virgin Galactic. (Virgin Galactic Photo)
After two successful crewed test flights to a 50-mile-high space milestone, Virgin Galactic says it's shifting its operations from California to New Mexico's Spaceport America — lock, stock and spaceship.
Virgin Galactic's billionaire founder, Richard Branson, made the announcement in Santa Fe today, in the company of New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and other state dignitaries. The company said the transfer is beginning immediately and will continue over the summer, to minimize the disruption for the school-age children of employees.
More than 100 staff members are affected by the move, Virgin Galactic said in a news release.
The shift follows through on a promise that Virgin Galactic made more than a decade ago, in exchange for New Mexico's pledge to put state funds toward a project that ended up costing more than $200 million.
"New Mexico delivered on its promise to build a world-first and world-class spaceport," Branson said. "Today, I could not be more excited to announce, that in return, we are now ready to bring New Mexico a world-first, world-class spaceline. Virgin Galactic is coming home to New Mexico where together we will open space to change the world for good."
Grisham called today's announcement of the move "an incredibly exciting development for both our state's economic future and the future of aerospace in general."
"With these workers here and with these plans firmly in place, I'm certain New Mexico will serve as the launchpad for the rapid industry growth we've been expecting for so many years," she said. "Today marks the beginning of the next chapter of aerospace in New Mexico."
Virgin Galactic has been conducting flight tests of its WhiteKnightTwo carrier airplane and SpaceShipTwo rocket plane at California's Mojave Air and Space Port since 2008. The program went through a tragic setback in 2014 when the first SpaceShipTwo broke up during a test flight, killing one of the pilots and seriously injuring the other. But it hit its goal last December when test pilots rocketed beyond the 50-mile altitude mark and earned their astronaut wings.
A follow-up flight sent two other pilots and Virgin crew member Beth Moses to astronaut-worthy altitudes in February.
Now SpaceShipTwo crew members will start calling New Mexico their home. But Virgin Galactic's sister manufacturing venture, The Spaceship Company, will remain in Mojave to manufacture more WhiteKnightTwo and SpaceShipTwo planes. As a parting gift, TSC will finish out the cabin interior of VSS Unity, the SpaceShipTwo plane that's been used for testing.
About 700 would-be fliers have paid as much as $250,000 to reserve a ride on SpaceShipTwo. The shift to New Mexico serves as a signal that passenger flights are on track to begin later this year..For what it's worth, Branson has said he wants to fly on July 16, the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon mission's liftoff.

It may not get easier, but you will get better.
The difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do right now.

Home For the record	For the record: Housebuilding at Woolfall Heath Meadow
For the record: Housebuilding at Woolfall Heath Meadow
Work is currently underway on a Gleeson Homes housing development in the Woolfall Heath area of Huyton. This development is Phase 2c of the North Huyton Revive Regeneration Programme, and will bring a total of 179 new homes to the area.
This phase includes the construction of 24 new homes to the rear of existing bungalows which back onto the Woolfall Heath Meadow area. The layout of these homes was agreed with residents during the consultation process, with the intention of improving security for existing properties and enhancing the design and layout of the estate.
When was this development agreed?
This development has been a long time coming and was originally identified as part of the North Huyton Revive Masterplan for the area around 2005.
Outline planning permission was granted in 2007 (planning reference number 07/00338/OUT) and detailed planning approval was given in 2015 (planning reference number 12/00620/REM).
How have local people been informed of this development?
Extensive work has been carried out with the local community to keep them informed and involved with progress at every stage of this programme, and the proposals for housing on this site have been a matter of public record for more than a decade.
A limited part of this development lies within the Woolfall Meadow area and allows for construction of 24 homes at the rear of the bungalows on Willowbank Close and Glencroft Close. The rationale for this was to provide a protective buffer between the bungalows, who backed on to the park and at times felt vulnerable to potential intruders. The new homes will also be orientated to face out over the park area, providing valuable natural surveillance and a pleasant landscaped street scene.
At each stage of the planning process, which started in 2007, local residents were consulted on the proposed development and the use of a limited area of the meadow land for these houses was made clear from the start.
Gleeson intend to begin development with road and sewer works in the near future and the construction work is then expected to be complete by late 2022.
Once complete, the housing development will provide an additional public entrance to the meadow making it more easily accessible to the local residents.
Gleeson have also made a commitment to re-instate the meadowland habitat from the small area that will be developed and these mitigation works have been scrutinised by the Merseyside Environmental Advisory Services (MEAS).
MEAS and Knowsley Council will also be overseeing the work throughout the development and will ensure that the meadow will remain accessible to the public at all times during the construction work.
Update 25.11.19: Removal of a dangerous tree
Essential works were carried out on Thursday 21 November to remove a dangerous and diseased tree from Woolfall Heath Meadow.
The council's tree contractor Assist removed the tree following an inspection from the council's Arboricultural Officer who has advised that it was in severe decline, with large areas of dead wood and a fungus making the tree brittle.
As a result, the tree had to be removed using a tracked mobile working platform, and this involved some further loss of small trees in order to access the dangerous tree.

The perennial philosophy comes and goes, all throughout time and space, being a reflection of the mind of God in the Great Fractal. In every new age it updates itself, taking a form that makes sense to the people of the time, depending on the characteristics of that age. Because technological change has been so rapid over the last 150 years, the perennial philosophy has not been able to keep up. This essay makes an attempt to do so.
The metaphors of the former age were the crucifix, the fish and the crescent, just as they were the pyramid, the bull and the sacrificial brazier in the age before that. The age that we are now entering has its own zeitgeist – perhaps it is time for a technoshamanic update to the perennial philosophy?
The perennial philosophy is informational gold and is more fundamental than language and therefore cannot be described in words. However, we can predict what some of its teachings are going to be, by applying the axiom of "As below, so above" to the modern day.
This remained an extremely effective metaphor, until today. The world of today is so bizarre, so surreal and impossible that distinguishing it from a dreamscape is no longer easy. Moreover, modern people are almost completely out of touch with the natural world – many of us haven't so much as looked at the Moon in years.
We need a new metaphor for a new age, and virtual reality seems like the obvious replacement.
Following this line of reasoning, one might expect that the creation myths of the new century will be based around the same binary division as always but with a modern twist; in other words not of yang and yin, fire and water or Sun and Moon but of 1 and 0. The hardware is the brain, the software is the mind, and electricity is the Holy Ghost.
Different lives could be seen as nothing more than differing sets of sensory impressions upon consciousness. As long as these impressions could be accurately recorded and reproduced, there's no reason why they couldn't be accessible for any conscious person to experience at any time.
My own The Verity Key twisted the ordinary perception of consciousness through a machine that could replace the consciousness of another person with that of the operator of the eponymous device. The idea was to play on the usual belief of the reader that their consciousness was directly connected to their physical body, and could never be separated.
This played with the idea of the Great Fractal, which is conceptualised as an immense algorithm that calculates all of the possible combinations of senses that make up the illusion of the material world. This is a modern way of expressing how all things flow from one, i.e. "all created objects come from one thing, an undifferentiated primal matter".
In other words, all of the contents of consciousness ultimately flow from consciousness itself, because nothing more than consciousness is needed to create them all – a fact known to all who have managed to purify their consciousness to the level of gold and thereby completed the Philosopher's Stone.
Other ancient alchemical or hermetic beliefs can likewise be transliterated into a modern context.
The laws of karma can be expressed in terms of frequency, which no-one understood before the days of widespread radio, and which now everyone does. If one can imagine such a thing as a frequency of consciousness, a higher frequency would produce a more harmonious tone and joy among those who heard it, whereas a lower frequency would produce a discordant tone and fear among those who heard it.
A technoshaman might contend that, upon the expiration of one's physical body, the frequency of consciousness that one had cultivated is the only thing that passes into the next world. They might even go as far as to contend that this frequency will attract those of a like frequency, and therefore that, post-death, one's frequency dictates which part of the Great Fractal one's consciousness becomes attuned to and the frequency of those who populate it (until, of course, one dies there as well).
One's "frequency of consciousness" can here be likened to an analog television or radio signal. The more pleasurable frequencies are not necessarily the first ones discovered, or the most popular ones, and they certainly aren't the easiest to tune into. In order to tune into higher frequencies one must know where to find them on the dial.
The alchemical quest of transforming lead into gold is a physicalist metaphor for the mystical quest that, in modern language, could be said to be about tuning a low frequency of consciousness into a higher one.

The Historical Reliability Of The New Testament>
Can We Not Trust The Gospels Because They're Biased?
Post category:The Historical Reliability Of The New Testament
Many skeptics claim that we can't trust what the New Testament authors said because they're bias. They said that they have an invested interest in writing down the things they wrote down. They say it's propaganda. It's a religious text. It's meant to be a tool for converting people and nothing more. Are they write? Can we really not trust what the gospel writers tell us because they're "biased" or because they're interested in converting people to Christianity? Is this really a good reason to throw out the gospels when trying to find out information about the life of Jesus? I don't think so.
For one thing, everyone is biased. Everyone has an invested interested in what they're writing. For example, when we read Gerd Ludemann's book "The Resurrection of Christ" a former Christian, now an atheist New Testament scholar, and in his book "The Resurrection Of Christ" he says "It's aim was to prove the non-historicity of the resurrection of Jesus and simultaneously to encourage Christians to change their faith accordingly." (by the way, Gerd Ludemann believes Jesus existed) Do you think Ludemann is bias? Does he have an agenda? Yes. Does that mean we should throw out everything he says? No. He could be bias and he could be right.
What about Richard Dawkins? In his book "The God Delusion" he writes "If this book works as I intend, religious leaders who pick it up will be atheists when they put it down." Do you think he's bias? Do you think Dawkins has an agenda? Should we throw out everything he says? No. At least you should be consistent if you're going to do this. But it's really dumb if you do that anyway. I mean, Jews have an invested interest in writing about the holocaust (namely to try to prevent such an atrocity from ever happening again), blacks have an invested interest in writing about the unfairness of slavery, so rejecting what a document says because they're supposedly bias is just fallacious. Basically, it's just an ad hominem (rejecting what a person says as true simply because of who they are).
Are the gospel writers biased? I guess so. But not more biased than anyone and everyone else. But since people do sometimes distort the facts because of their bias, how can we know for sure that what the gospel writers tell us are true? Simple. We can get passed biases by examining what the documents say using historical principles of authenticity such as the principle of embarrassment, the principle of multiple attestation, the principle of early testimony, the principle of dissimilarity, etc. These are historical tests that historians apply to ancient documents in their attempts to discern whether what they say is true or not. While these historical tests can't be used to prove that something in a document is false, it can be used to prove that something in a historical document is more plausibly true than false. What I mean by that is that just because something is not embarrassing, or not multiply attested doesn't mean that it's false. It just means that if something IS embarrassing or IS multiply attested, we have more certainty that it's true than we would have had in the absence of such details.
We can also see if they check out in other seemingly insignificant details. The gospels get a lot of what most Bible readers of the 21st century consider to be unimportant details. Colin Hemer wrote a book called "The Book Of Acts In The Setting Of Helenistic History" and Craig Blomberg wrote a book called "The Historical Reliability Of The Gospel Of John". In these books, the authors list dozens and dozens and dozens of historical details that the New Testament writers got correct. 84 details in Acts have been confirmed and over 50 details in the gospel of John have been confirmed by Archeology. For the sake of brevity, I can't go into any of these details right now, but if you want to learn more, go read those books. Anyway, the fact that the gospel writers (and the writer of Acts) get SO MANY details correct, we have good reason to believe that they were eyewitnesses to the events they wrote down. It would be impossible to get that many details right if you were a person living in another place at another time.
Moreover, just because someone is bias doesn't mean they're wrong. As Mike
Licona pointed out in a lecture I heard a while back, bias can actually
drive people to be MORE accurate in their details because they want you
to believe what they're telling you so they don't want to
risk telling you false information even in minor details. They don't want their own words to discredit them. I do this when
talking with non-believers on the internet. If I'm telling a
non-Christian something and I'm not sure about what it is I'm telling
them, I'll do some internet research to see if my information is
accurate. I don't even want to falsely attribute a quote to somebody if
it was somebody ELSE who uttered it. So, at least in my personal
circumstance, my bias actually drives me to be more accurate in what I'm
saying…because I don't want to hurt my witness by saying something
that isn't true.
Reasoning the way many atheists do (that you should reject something because it's biased propaganda), you should probably reject everything Charles Darwin said in his book "The Origin Of The Species" because he had an invested interest in getting his theory off the ground. I should probably throw out everything any atheist has ever said in his blog because he's biased. But I'm guessing they probably want me to give them a fair hearing, right?

On March 28, 2019 about 7:20 P.M. officers of the Aurora Police Department (APD) were contacted by members of the Denver Police Department (DPD) who requested assistance with arresting a subject wanted out of their city for violent felony crimes.
The suspect was located in the parking lot of a restaurant at 16891 East Iliff Avenue. APD's SWAT unit initiated efforts to arrest the suspect from a vehicle when shots were fired by an officer. The suspect fled on foot and ran south of the location before eventually being taken into custody. During the course of the arrest, the suspect was non-compliant and a Taser had to be applied to place him into custody.
A passenger, who remained in the suspect's vehicle, was contacted and is considered a victim in the originating case out of Denver.
Due to the original case associated with DPD's request for assistance, information about the identity of the suspect should be directed to that agency.
During this event, APD SWAT officers were using their issued body worn cameras. The suspect sustained minor injuries, resulting from being Tased. No officers were injured. There was a weapon recovered from the scene.
This incident is being investigated by the APD Major Crimes/Homicide Unit and members of the Denver Police Department, in accordance with Senate Bill 15-219.
We are asking anyone with information about this case to please contact Agent M. Ingui at 303-739-6067.
On October 28, 2018 at approximately 3:08 A.M., a 26-year-old female tragically lost her life after being struck by a vehicle while walking on the sidewalk near East Iliff Avenue and South Pagosa Way. Today, the Aurora Police Department is announcing the arrest of a male in connection with this incident. As a result of the on-going investigation, Timothy Scott Knutson (DOB 01/31/1981) was arrested for the following charges: Vehicular Homicide; Leaving the Scene After an Accident Involving Death; Careless Driving Resulting in Death; and Driving Under the Influence. Knutson is pictured below.
The criminal investigation remains open and therefore no further details will be made available. The criminal prosecution is in the hands of the 18th Judicial District so further media inquiries should be directed to their office. The victim will be identified by the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office.
On October 28th, 2018, at 3:08 AM, Aurora Officers were dispatched to a call of a welfare check of a person down on the sidewalk on East Iliff Avenue east of South Pagosa Way. When Officers arrived, they found a deceased 26 year old female on the south sidewalk.
Their investigation revealed that an eastbound vehicle had left the roadway for an unknown reason and drove up onto the south sidewalk. The vehicle continued east on the south sidewalk where it struck the female, a street sign and then managed to get back onto eastbound East Iliff Avenue. The driver did not remain on scene and so far, there are no witnesses to the victim being struck.
The victim's name is not being released at this time. Eastbound East Iliff Avenue was closed at South Pagosa Way during the investigation.
Residents of Aurora are invited to celebrate the 35th anniversary of National Night Out with the Aurora Police Department and the rest of the country on Tuesday, August the 7th. National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. The goal of the campaign is to make Aurora safer place.
The Police Area Representative Team for District 3, which serves the Southeast area of Aurora has announced the District's plans for the evening. A caravan of police officers and department vehicles will be traveling to and visiting National Night Out events throughout the District. Below is a list of their scheduled stops.
UPDATE: The second day of the event being held on Friday, April 27 has been cancelled due to the closure of all Aurora Public Schools. The video will be presented to Junior and Seniors in their classrooms next week.
WHAT: The "Every 15 Minutes" Program is a two-day event that brings together high school juniors and seniors and challenges them to think about the consequences of drinking and driving. The program also educates students on personal safety, responsible and mature decision making and the impact their decisions can have on family, friends, the community and their futures. Students work with local organizations and family members to craft a scenario to act out in front of peers and role play the consequences of their decisions and actions.
WHY: Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for teens in the U.S., more than homicide and suicide combined. There are at least 60 traffic fatalities in Colorado every year that can be attributed to distracted driving. Alcohol-related collisions are the leading cause of death among teenage youth.
The Aurora Police Department and Aurora Public Schools are partnering with Rangeview High School to host the "Every 15 Minutes" program in Aurora Colorado. The event brings together community leaders including the City of Aurora, Medical Center of Aurora, Aurora Fire Rescue, City of Aurora Courts and Detention Center, Arapahoe County Coroner, Health One Air Life and Falck Ambulance to take a proactive step in educating local high school students about making mature decisions when alcohol and drugs are involved.
Media is welcome to attend the crash scene that will be simulated on April 26 at 12 p.m. There will be a designated area for media to set up, as there will be many moving components during the scenario (arrival of patrol cars, fire trucks, ambulances and a helicopter).
Interviews will be provided to media before or after the crash scene on April 26. If interested in filming other parts of the event, please contact the designated PIO to make arrangements.

The investigation has revealed that the incident began on February 9th (the night before the shooting) at 9: 13 p.m. with a reported felony menacing at I225 and East Mississippi Avenue. In this incident, the subject pointed a handgun at the reporting party. The reporting party described an armed individual and a suspect vehicle. The officers that responded were unable to locate the armed subject or vehicle and a report was taken.
On February 10th, at 11:27 p.m. the same officers who had taken the report of the felony menacing from the day before were in the area of East Smoky Hill Road and South Chambers Road when they observed the suspect vehicle from the felony menacing.

The subject refused the verbal orders given by the officers. As officers continued to give orders the subject began returning to the vehicle ignoring the officers' commands. As an officer attempted to go hands on with the subject, the subject produced a handgun and the officer discharged their duty weapon striking the subject.
The identity of the subject will be released by the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office pending the his positive identification and the notification of next of kin.
Anyone with information to this incident is asked to contact Detective Todd Fredericksen at 303.739.6106.

Cardinals belong to a group of birds called "grosbeaks", meaning that they have a thick bill especially adapted for cracking open and eating seeds.
Male cardinals, or redbirds as they are sometimes called, can be distinguished from other birds by their bright red color, a black patch around the bill and a red crest on the head. Females are olive-brown with red wings and a red crest.
Besides their red plumage, cardinals are also known for their large repertoire of songs. Unlike most songbirds, cardinals sing all year long. In addition to their famous "cheer, cheer, cheer" song, they often throw in a "wheet, wheet, wheet", or "chew, chew, chew", or a "cheedle, cheedle, cheedle". During courtship, a male is often seen feeding a female. He will continue to feed her while she sits on the nest. While most songbird singing is restricted to the males, female cardinals are known to sing to the male while sitting on the nest.
Cardinal nests are composed of dry leaves, twigs, grape vine and dry grass. The female normally builds the nest and chooses thickets, briars or young evergreens that offer protective cover from weather and predators. Cardinals also like to nest near streams, which supply drinking and bathing opportunities.
Cardinals nest from March through August and lay two to five eggs at a time. The eggs can be gray, buff, or light green in color with spots of gray and brown. Females incubate the eggs for 12-13 days and the young leave the nest when they are about ten days old. A pair of cardinals may have two to four broods during one season. The male tends to the newly fledged young while the female begins incubating the next clutch of eggs. Producing this large number of young each season helps the cardinal species survive.
One of the dangers cardinals face is becoming a parent to a Brown-headed Cowbird. Cowbirds lay their eggs in other bird's nests and destroy the host's young in the process. The adopted parents then raise the cowbird chick as if it was their own.
You can attract cardinals to your yard by providing food, water and cover plants for nesting and resting. In the wild, cardinals eat a variety of foods including insects, fruits, berries, seeds and farm crops. They also eat caterpillars, grasshoppers and beetles. At feeding stations, cardinals prefer black oil sunflower seeds, millet, cracked corn, peanut butter, nuts, fruit and mealworms.
Cardinals prefer to eat on a tray, a platform type feeder, or on the ground. Favorite seeds include sunflowers and safflowers, but they are known to eat over a hundred kinds of fruits and seeds in the wild. Attractive garden plants include brambles, sumac, cherry, dogwood, grape, mulberry, blueberry, elderberry, tulip poplar and hackberry.
For cover, cardinals prefer brushy woodlands, streamside thickets, orchards, swamps, suburban gardens and parks. They like to roost and nest in dense thickets, evergreens and hedges. Evergreens such as Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana) and American Holly (Ilex opaca) are great shelter trees for cardinals and other birds. During breeding season, they are attracted to dense thickets of brambles, shrubbery and vines for nest building materials and placement.
Planting native trees and shrubs like American holly will attract cardinals to your yard.
Cardinals are highly territorial of an area they have chosen for nesting. Males vigorously defend their territory from other male cardinals and will even attack their own reflection in a window or car mirror. Even females will constantly attack windows, which can be quite distressing to people living inside the house. To help discourage this behavior, hang a sunscreen or towel to "break" the reflection of the bird in the particular window or mirror. The towel may look funny on the window, but it will save you from worrying about the birds harming themselves, and it will help the birds get on with the business of nesting and defending against real threats. Cardinal window attacks are generally restricted to the spring and early summer, when birds are most concerned about their nests.
While cardinals do not molt into duller plumage in the Fall, some cardinals experience drastic molts that often leave them 'bald'. For some reason, many cardinals lose all of their head feathers at the same time, leaving a bald bird behind. While in some cases, the loss of feathers are a result of lice or poor nutrition, most of the time, new feathers will grow in on their own to produce the wonderful plumage cardinals are known best for.

Complex needs
Government fails to meet Winterbourne View commitments
News, 02 June 2014
The government has failed to meet its commitment to ensure that people with a learning disability are supported to return to their communities from units like Winterbourne View.
The deadline for making this happen – as outlined in the government's final response to the Winterbourne View scandal in December 2012 – passed on June 1. Currently, about 3,250 people with a learning disability still remain in assessment and treatment units in England.
In a letter published on May 30 in The Telegraph, families of the victims abused at Winterbourne View assessment and treatment unit, families of people stuck in similar places, and leading charities expressed their concern at the failure of the Government, the NHS and local authorities to meet the deadline.
Mencap and The Challenging Behaviour Foundation have also released a report, Winterbourne View: The Scandal Continues, which highlights how much needs to be done to make the government's commitment.
For instance, more people with a learning disability are going into units than are leaving them. NHS England research shows that over the past 6 months 544 people were admitted to units, while only 339 people came out. Meanwhile, 90% of those in units have no date set for when they will leave.
Units for people with a learning disability were identified in the Winterbourne Serious Case Review as places where people are at "risk of receiving abusive and restrictive practices". The Learning Disability Census 2013 revealed that of the 3,250 people with a learning disability in units:
•	64% had been regularly given anti-psychotic medication
•	57% had experienced self-harm, an accident, physical assault, hands-on restraint or been kept in seclusion
•	60% have been in a unit for one year or more. One in 6 has been in a unit for 5 years or more
•	It costs an average of £4,500 per week for someone to be in a unit. It is entirely possible to develop the right support and services for most individuals within their local community. In many cases it will cost the same or even less.
"Appalling failure"
Jan Tregelles, chief executive of Mencap, and Vivien Cooper, chief executive of The Challenging Behaviour Foundation, commented: "It is three years since the nation was shocked and sickened to witness the systematic abuse of people with a learning disability at Winterbourne View. The Panorama programme was a watershed moment – there was a clear commitment to ensure that people with a learning disability were able to get the right support and services in their local community as swiftly as possible so they can move away from these oppressive units.
"We have seen the appalling failure of the Government, the NHS and local authorities to meet their own deadline for moving people with a learning disability out of places like Winterbourne View. Worse still, we know more people are being admitted to these units than are being transferred out. Local areas have just not developed the right support and services. This means they remain in these places where we know they are frequently overmedicated, restrained and are at significant risk of abuse.
"It is entirely possible to develop the right support and services around most individuals within their local community. In many cases this will cost the same or even less. What is needed now is the will and determination to make the changes required – it cannot be beyond government and the NHS to achieve this. The Prime Minister must take personal responsibility and address this failure of national Government, local Government and the NHS."
Steve Sollars, father of Sam, who was at Winterbourne View, said the Government's failure was "unacceptable."
He added that Sam was restrained 45 times in a 6-month period while he was at Winterbourne View. "We will never know how much more he was subjected for the rest of his two-year time there. When he came out of Winterbourne View Sam was unrecognisable because of what he had been through. He is now flourishing in the place where he is. Good care is possible and everything must be done to stop abuse and suffering of people who find themselves in similar places to Sam. I am going to keep fighting – along with all the other families whose sons and daughters have been in Winterbourne View or places like it – for every person with a learning disability stuck in a unit to get the support they need close to home."
Lisa Hopkins, executive director of practice development at Dimensions, expressed her frustration at the lack of progress in moving people back into the community: "The best way to ensure an improvement in quality of life and that abuse is prevented in the future is to support people to live in their own communities, using personalised support, and surrounded by their family.
"Out-of-area and institutionalised services have a negative effect on people's lives - often exacerbating challenging behaviour and leading to feelings of isolation and loneliness. Nobody should ever have to experience this.
"For a variety of reasons, change isn't happening fast enough and it's very disappointing that the targets set in the wake of Winterbourne View are not being met. It is also frustrating that admissions into long-stay hospital settings are happening at a faster rate than people are being discharged; despite the targets being set.
"As a national support organisation, Dimensions is experiencing more enquiries to support people who need to move away from inappropriate settings and into their own homes in the community. Already, those who have moved to Dimensions from out-of-area placements are seeing positive outcomes which are less expensive than their previous support costs. But we want to see everybody with learning disabilities being able to have choice and control in their lives. This needs to happen soon."
In response to this, Care and Support Minister Norman Lamb said: "The terrible abuses at Winterbourne View were a wake-up call across the whole health and care system but progress to bring about change has been unacceptably slow.
"I want to see a real change of pace in the next few months to move people out of institutions where appropriate, and, with the right support, back into the community. NHS England has been tasked to develop a clear plan to move things forward quickly."
