nized by the Hopewell Township Committee with a resolution at the Dec. 10 meeting, which honored the team for making sports histo-
ry, since it was the first team in the Hopewell Valley Baseball/Softball Association to reach the World Series in Bentonville. The team

launches
prevention
program
BY HEATHER FIORE
The Hopewell Sun
After an investigation proved
Penn State Universitys former
assistant football coach Jerry
Sandusky to be guilty of 45
counts of sexual crimes against
young boys, people all over the
world were affected.
Coming from a family full of
Penn State graduates, junior at
Hopewell Valley Central High
School (HVCHS) Kyle Bennison
was touched by this case, which
ultimately led him to launch a
local sexual abuse prevention
program.
After hearing the days and
days of news reports about the
victims and the crimes, I realized
that child sexual abuse is a more
prevalent issue than I knew, he
said. I did some research and
quickly realized I had to do some-
thing about the issue. I wanted to
do something about it to do some
good out of something so bad, so
it seemed like the perfect opportu-
nity around something that
would positively affect my com-

W
hen things like the fiscal
cliff pop up, the electorate,
in general, gets really mad
at Washington, D.C., politicians. People
complain about a lack of leadership,
too much partisan politics, etc. They
wonder why their elected officials
cant work together to get things done.
Then, every few years, the electorate
returns, for the most part, the same
cast of characters to office.
Lets look at some of the major play-
ers in the cliff debacle:
Harry Reid was first elected to Con-
gress in 1983.
John Boehner has been serving
since 1991.
Mitch McConnell took his place in
the Senate in 1985.
Now, President Obama hasnt been
in D.C. nearly as long as those guys,
but he received voter approval only a
couple of months ago to serve another
four years.
So, in two months, when the next
cliff-like scenario plays out the debate
over raising the debt ceiling from its
current $16 trillion level what do you
think will happen?
Washington politicians had more
than a year to avoid the first cliff,
and managed to do so only at the last
minute. Does anyone seriously antici-
pate a debt-ceiling deal happening
prior to the last 27 seconds before the
nations credit rating is about to get
zapped?
If the public wants change in the
federal government, it has to change
the people elected to run the federal
government. It has to remove politi-
cians who put partisan politics above
compromise and, in some cases, com-
mon sense. It has to elect candidates
who are committed to working with
members of either party to do the
right thing.
Will that happen? It can, but, if his-
tory is any indication, it wont. Well be
seeing the same people, talking about
the same things, in the same way, for
years to come.
in our opinion
D.C. dysfunction
If the same people are elected time and again, why does anyone expect change?
Same people, same result
Upset about the fiscal cliff debacle?
Tired of partisan politics? Its up to the
electorate to make changes. Electing
the same people year after year and
expecting them to change does not
make any sense.
Canal park walking tour
set for Jan. 13
The Delaware and Raritan Canal Watch
will hold a free walking tour along one of
the most rural sections of the canal park

seum in Griggstown, will be explored.

munity.
A life Scout in Troop No. 44 of
Pennington working toward his
rank as Eagle Scout, Bennison
chose to spearhead this campaign
for his project, and has partnered
with the Hopewell Valley YMCA
and the non-profit organization
Darkness to Light (D2L) to do
so.
His plan is to launch a series of
child sexual abuse prevention
workshops, a project he says can
change someones life.
D2L, a North Carolina-based
organization dedicated to ending
child sexual abuse, offers two-
and-a-half-hour education pro-
grams known as Stewards of
Children, which Bennison is uti-
lizing for his project.
According to the D2L website,
Stewards of Children is the
only nationally available pro-
gram scientifically proven to in-
crease knowledge, improve atti-
tudes and change child-protective
behaviors.
One in four girls and one in
six boys will be sexually abused
before the age of 18, Bennison
said. My Eagle project aims to
begin changing those numbers.
In December 2012, Bennison
began organizing a series of pre-
vention and education programs,
which will be offered at the
Hopewell Valley YMCA in the
near future.
The programs are targeted to-
ward adults in the community to
learn how to prevent, recognize
and react to child sexual abuse,
according to Bennison.
The program is meant for all
adults, regardless of whether
they work with kids, because
everyone plays a part in preven-
tion, he said. It has seven steps
on preventing child sexual abuse
and focuses on the prevention as-
pect of child sexual abuse, as op-
posed to aiding victims or the af-
termath.
Bennison is working closely
with the Hopewell Valley YMCA,
which has adopted the program
long-term.
The goal of the YMCA is to
train 5 percent of Hopewells pop-
ulation in three years, he said.
Research shows that this is the
tipping point at which a change
occurs in the community.
CEO of the Hopewell Valley
YMCA Doug Pszczolkowski, to
whom Bennison presented the
idea, wants to draw in facilitators
who can teach the programs
themselves, which would
expand the program and its effec-
tiveness.
When Kyle brought this issue
to my attention, I saw his passion
behind it and knew that this
would be an important movement
in the community, he said.
As a certified trainer in the
program, Pszczolkowski will ad-
vise and help Kyle throughout the
process. YMCAs across New Jer-
sey are committed to educating
their local community adults in
the Stewards of Children train-
ing program.
Bennison is currently trying to
raise enough money to support a
minimum of five sessions for 25
attendees, which leaves his target
goal at $1,250, since each session
costs $10 per person.
To obtain the funds necessary
to carry out his project, he sub-
mitted a grant application to the
Hopewell Valley Education Foun-
dation, and has reached out to
local businesses and organiza-
tions.
The program will continue
through spring of 2013, with each
session open to the public and
free to attend. The sessions will
be held throughout the Hopewell
Valley, including schools and li-
braries. The first session was
held on Dec. 18.
If this project is able to save
just one child who might have
otherwise been sexually abused,
then this project is completely
worthwhile, Bennison said.
People in the community will be
affected by this project without
even knowing it.
Its a very different project,
and Ive had to go through a lot to
prove that, he added. Its not
like Im going to do the five ses-
sions and Im done; its going to
continue and hit so many more
people than I would be able too, so
I think that makes a really big dif-
ference as well.

son@verizon.net or by calling

Buildings are a prime exam-
ple of how human systems inte-
grate with natural systems, pres-
ident, CEO and Founding Chair
of U.S. Green Building Council
Rick Fedrizzi said. The Capital
Health project efficiently uses our
natural resources and makes an
immediate, positive impact on
our planet, which will tremen-
dously benefit future generations
to come.
Some of the LEED elements at
Capital Health include water effi-
cient landscaping, water use re-
duction, use of regional materi-
als, use of PVC-free and low-VOC
finished on all painted surfaces,
preservation of open space that
exceeds local zoning require-
ments by 67 percent, light pollu-
tion reduction, and recycling 90
percent of trash and debris from
the construction phase.
By using less energy and water,
LEED certification buildings save
money for families, businesses
and taxpayers; reduce green-
house gas emissions; and con-
tribute to a healthier environ-
ment for residents, workers and
the larger community.
Participation in the voluntary
LEED process demonstrates lead-
ership, innovation, environmen-
tal stewardship and social respon-
