ATLANTA - October 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

In September 2022, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) awarded Alliant Health Solutions a three-year grant to establish a national center of excellence for building capacity in nursing facilities to care for residents with behavioral health conditions.

The Center of Excellence for Behavioral Health in Nursing Facilities (COE-NF) will serve as a centralized hub and national model for expanding capacity in nursing facilities to care for residents with a variety of behavioral health needs. The program will support resource development and dissemination to better serve residents with Serious Mental Illness (SMI), Serious Emotional Disturbance (SED), Substance Use Disorders (SUD), or Co-occurring Disorders (COD). Training, technical assistance, and workforce development will be provided for staff in nursing facilities. 

SAMHSA expects that this program will help to: (1) strengthen and sustain effective behavioral health practices and achieve better outcomes for nursing home residents with SMI, SED, SUD, or COD; and (2) ensure the availability of evidence-based training and technical assistance addressing mental health disorder identification, treatment, and recovery support services. Training and technical assistance will also be provided to support facilities in improving care for this population.

"Alliant recognizes that mental health is an important part of someone's overall health and well-being. Our support for the Center of Excellence Nursing Facility will provide necessary resources to support the nursing facility residents that have been diagnosed with behavioral health needs and will also increase awareness about how mental health and substance use affects millions of people and their families nationwide," says Dennis White, President and CEO at Alliant Health Solutions.

NEW YORK - October 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

iQuanti: Millennials grew up during the online lending explosion. As a result, personal loans are a popular borrowing option among the millennial generation for covering large expenses, refinancing debt, and building credit.

Secured personal loans are a particularly useful option. They require the borrower to provide a valuable item as collateral. Then, the lender can seize this and sell it to cover their loss if the borrower defaults. This reduces the lender's risk, which benefits the borrower in many ways. So, with that said, here are four reasons why millennials should consider a secured personal loan:

1. Can be easier to qualify for

If you're trying to get your first loan and worried about approval chances, secured loans are often easier to qualify for than unsecured loans. This is because the collateral offsets the lender's risk of you defaulting. As a result, the lender will be more lenient.

Some lenders also have less strict credit score requirements for secured personal loans. They might want to see factors in addition to your credit score, like proof of steady income and employment, to make an approval decision.

2. May be able to receive a larger loan amount

The collateral reduces the lender's risk, and the loan amount is often based at least partly on the collateral's value. This means you may be able to get a larger loan amount with a secured personal loan than an unsecured one. For example, if you have an investment account with $30,000, you may be able to use that as collateral to get a bigger loan.

3. May be able to get a lower rate

Again, secured loans are less risky to lenders. So, the lender won't charge you as high of an interest rate as an unsecured loan with the same amount and term length. This can help you save a substantial amount in interest over the life of the loan. Additionally, it can lower your monthly payment. As a result, you could fit your payments into your budget more easily and minimize the chance of defaulting.

4. Can help you build credit

Many millennials may be just getting started with their credit score, or they may have lower scores due to economic turmoil. Regardless, secured loans can be great tools for building your credit. Many loans that require a credit check report your payments to the credit bureaus, and a history of on-time payments can raise your score significantly over time. Since secured loans are easier to get, they can be a great first step in building or rebuilding your credit.

Secured loans can be excellent for some millennial borrowers

Many millennials could benefit from secured personal loans. The collateral offsets the lender's risk, so they're often more lenient with approval criteria. You can usually get lower interest rates and larger loan amounts than unsecured personal loans as well.

Secured personal loans can also be great credit builders for these reasons. Millennials with no or poor credit could get a secured personal loan and build credit through on-time payments. If you think a secured personal loan is right for you, shop around and get prequalified. This will help you find the right terms for your needs while minimizing hard inquiries.

Nantucket Spider is pushing the bug repellent and the home goods industry forward with its recent sustainability and transparency efforts. After announcing its Plastic-Free by 2025 initiative and its commitment to transparency this year, the company has now also committed to giving 2% of the proceeds of each item it sells online to Rainforest Trust's Conservation Action Fund.

WILTON, Conn. - October 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Nantucket Spider, a leader in the natural outdoor and home goods space, has committed to donating 2% of the proceeds of each item it sells online to support rainforest and endangered species habitat conservation with Rainforest Trust's Conservation Action Fund. The fund is used to support and protect endangered species, threatened rainforests and other tropical ecosystems around the world. Rainforest Trust is one of the world's most effective conservation charities with over 40 million acres of rainforest protected to date. 

Nantucket Spider has been a leading innovator in the natural insect repellent market for nearly 10 years, with sustainability and transparency at the forefront of their business. More recently, the company has expanded into the zero-waste cleaning product space, adding an innovative plastic-free line of natural cleaning products and laundry detergent under the product line name "Nantucket Footprint." 

"We are mindful that the most humble creatures with the smallest footprints are impacted every day by the choices we all make." - Nancy Jack, CEO and Co-Founder

Earlier this year, the company announced its Plastic-Free by 2025 initiative. Already packaged and sent to customers in biodegradable bags, their bug repellents will be packaged in aluminum bottles starting this year, reducing plastic use and improving recyclability. This past summer, Nantucket Spider announced that they have become a fully remote company, thereby reducing their internal greenhouse gas emissions to zero. They are also working with their trade partners to further reduce emissions with sourcing.

Sustainability, Packaging & Ingredients: 

Nantucket Spider's products are all made with the lowest toxicity ingredient choices on the market and are packaged in recycled, recyclable, compostable and/or biodegradable packaging. Their latest line of cleaning products, Nantucket Footprint, are packaged without water and without plastic. 

Nantucket Spider's Mission 

The company's mission is to create natural products using the highest-quality ingredients, the lowest toxicity, and the least amount of waste possible. 

"We are committed to leaving the planet better than we found it for the future of the environment and for the future of our children. Subsequent generations should live in a safe, environmentally stable world, and we know that we can play a part in what that world looks like." - Nancy Jack, CEO and Co-Founder

"We are honored and deeply grateful that Marci selected us to be the benefactor of this exciting and inspiring event," says BIGVISION Community founder Eve Goldberg. Eve lost her 23 years young son Isaac to an accidental opioid overdose in 2014.  She founded BIGVISION in 2015 to prevent other parents from experiencing the same tragedy.  BIGVISION redefines recovery as exciting and fun by providing young people free in-person and virtual activities to discover new passions, learn life skills, live productive lives, and represent a new normal—be proud of your recovery!  For more information, visit www.bigvisioncommunity.com. 

Marci is passionate about supporting BIGVISION because she believes "the younger you are, the more support you need to sustain early and long-term recovery." Marci herself faced the consequences of her drinking at a young age (21) and strongly believes that access to a community such as BIGVISION, at that time in her life, would have helped her maintain sobriety instead of battling her addiction for over 30 more years.

As a sexual abuse survivor and seven years sober, Marci is a fearless voice on television committed to changing lives as an authority on recovery and spreading hope and joy. "Wake Up with Marci" airs on WLNY/CBS 10/55 in the Tri-State area at 10 am on Saturdays. For more information, visit www.wakeupwithmarci.com.

"I felt called to write my memoir/self-help book, Chaos to Clarity: Seeing the Signs and Breaking the Cycles, for those struggling with depression, self-hatred, substance abuse, childhood trauma, and more. It is okay to own past behaviors and habits and move from victim to survivor. The journey is about uncovering the root beneath addiction and creating your most fulfilling life through introspective work, prompts, education, and action items," says Marci.
