Kansas City Establishes New Court in Undaunting Setting

Kansas City is taking court “straight to the people” with a new Community Court that convenes at a multipurpose center in the urban core, not the downtown courthouse. The off-site location at 27th Street and Prospect Avenue is essential to the specialty court’s focus on serving people experiencing instability issues, such as homelessness, by providing easier, less threatening access to Municipal Court and its services. “I think many people, the…Read Article

Caregivers in KC: Planning for the Future

Becoming a caregiver is a responsibility that can sometimes arise unexpectedly. After the birth of a child with a disability, or the health decline of a parent or spouse, caregiving often comes with important financial considerations. Health care and supply costs for caregivers can add up quickly, and your income may be reduced as you have less time to work. According to AARP, caregivers on average spend $7,200 of their own money on caregiving …Kansas City, Missouri · Kansas City Read Article

When Going Under the Knife Does Not Mean Surgery

Chef Educator Rachel Ciordas deftly sliced collard greens into a ribbon-like chiffonade as students from the University of Kansas School of Medicine watched with a degree of awe typically reserved for an episode of the Food Network’s “Chopped.” After Ciordas demonstrated how to peel, chop, or grate the raw ingredients, the future physicians donned aprons and broke into teams. Using tested recipes, they had one hour to cook two low-sodium meals. …Kansas City, Kansas · Kansas City Read Article

Caregiving Squeezes Households Between Young and Old

Melissa Johnson knows her life is hardly unique. The Oak Grove, Missouri, woman cares for her infirm 72-year-old mother, who lives in her own home nearby. She calls her mother daily. She brings dinner to her several times a week. Johnson, who coordinates care with her aunt, a team of therapists, and a nurse, is also a mother of a 17-year-old daughter. “At some point, you will be a caregiver,” Johnson said. “I think it’s inevitable for everyone…Kansas City, Missouri · Kansas City Read Article

Volunteer ‘Gravers’ Search For Plots After Online Inquiries

Six years ago, Robert Franke’s heart doctor suggested he get more exercise. Some would have received that news and headed to the golf course or pickleball court. Franke headed for the closest cemetery. There he pursued his new calling as a Find a Grave volunteer — or “graver,” as some of them refer to themselves — finding, photographing, and uploading the grave markers of the previously non-digitized deceased. In this often solitary pastime, Fra…Kansas City, Missouri · Kansas City Read Article

World War II Left Lasting Economic Imprint in the Region

Harry S. Truman would scarcely recognize today’s technological wizardry and business advancements, 80 years after his instrumental role in the Allies’ victory in World War II.

Retreat Centers Serve as Oases from Stressful Times

Stress — including that caused by our nation’s current political turmoil — is such a common experience that people have devised many ways to describe it, including the simple exclamation “I’m stressed out.” There’s also the phrase you’re likely to hear only in parts of New England: “I’m right out straight.” Sometimes people under age 40 or so put it this way: “I’m out of bandwidth.” And among residents of the South, it’s more common to say “I’m …Warrensburg, Missouri · Warrensburg Read Article
