Today the sun is shining during my commute home from work. But this weekend, public service announcements will remind us to "fall back," ending daylight saving time (DST) by setting our clocks an hour earlier on Sunday, Nov. 6. On Nov. 7, many of us will commute home in the dark.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — One of the country's oldest mentoring organizations is starting a program pairing police with youth in an effort to address the fraught relationship between officers and the communities they serve.
Already operating in several of their affiliate branches, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America's "Bigs in Blue" program is set to begin in January. Officers will volunteer to serve as a "Big" for a child, interacting weekly for 30 minutes to an hour at the child's school, though longer visits outside of a school setting may happen depending on the relationship. Child participants will be elementary or middle school age.
