"Seeking" By Darius V. Daughtry: Part Of The Broward Center’s Arts For Action: Black Voices Series July 11, 2024 Share In 2022, Darius V. Daughtry, one of South Florida’s best-known poets, authors, directors and educators, presented a stage reading of Seeking, where he explored a journey of self-discovery in the midst of an ever changing world. Now he brings his well-received work to the stage in this new full production with performances on Friday, July 26th at 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, July 27th at 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. in the Amaturo Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Written and directed by Daughtry, Seeking is an unforgettable experience that brings music and magic to the stage as the audience follows the story of a young musician's quest for independence. This leads to his discovery of how instrumental his family's past is to him in finding his future. Evening performances are followed by Art Prevails Project’s signature artist talk and a special reception with complimentary drinks and light bites. “Darius produces outstanding work that is thought-provoking, engaging and inspiring,” said Jan Goodheart, Vice President of External Affairs at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. “He is a skillful storyteller with a gift for making stories relatable and relevant, finding opportunities where artists and audiences truly connect in ways that go far beyond the surface. We are delighted to see his original dramatic work, Seeking, come to fruition in the Amaturo Theater.” The Broward Center’s Arts for Action: Black Voices Initiative aims to use the arts as a tool or catalyst to heighten awareness, deepen knowledge and mobilize action on Social Justice issues. Daughtry has partnered with the Broward Center on this initiative in the past. He gave a sneak peek of the play Head Above Water: The Life of Esther Rolle which he wrote and was directed by Bianca LaVerne Jones and commissioned by the African American Research Library and Cultural Center during the Broward Center’s Rhythm by the River, a festival that celebrated exciting and Innovative Black Voices in Broward County. As part of his Art Prevails Project, he partnered with the Broward Center to present The Happening: A Theatrical Mixtape, Volume III, celebrating and highlighting women, their obstacles and achievements and featuring some of South Florida’s finest talent that he wrote and directed. Seeking is part of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts’ Arts for Action: Black Voices initiative, presented by Baptist Health and JM Family Enterprises, Inc., which focuses on how the arts and artists can be a force for change in addressing critical issues of social justice and racial equity.

Protect Yourself From Medical Identity Theft September 19, 2024 Share In an increasingly digital age where personal information is vulnerable to exploitation, Medical Identity Theft stands out as a particularly insidious crime. Unlike Financial Identity Theft, where credit card numbers or bank accounts are compromised, Medical Identity Theft involves the unauthorized use of an individual's personal information to obtain medical services, prescriptions, or other healthcare benefits. This form of Identity Theft not only threatens personal finances but also endangers Health and Well-Being. Understanding Medical Identity Theft Medical Identity Theft occurs when someone steals or uses another person's personal information, such as their Medicare or Social Security Number, without permission to fraudulently obtain medical services or products. The consequences can be severe, ranging from financial losses due to fraudulent medical bills to incorrect medical information contaminating the victim's health records. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) defines Medical Identity Theft as "when someone steals your Personal Information (like your name, Social Security Number, or Medicare Number) to get medical care, or uses your information to submit fraudulent claims for medical services." This definition underscores the importance of safeguarding personal information associated with healthcare services. Medical Identity Theft can occur through various means, including: Data Breaches: Hackers targeting Healthcare Providers, Insurers, or Government Agencies to access Sensitive Patient Information. Stolen Documents: Physical Theft of Medicare Cards, Insurance Forms, or other documents containing Personal Details. Fraudulent Practices: Unscrupulous individuals posing as healthcare providers or insurers to obtain personal information. Once obtained, this information can be used to file false claims with Insurers, obtain Prescription Drugs, or receive medical treatment—all at the expense of the victim's insurance coverage and potentially their health. Protecting Yourself from Medical Identity Theft Given the serious implications of Medical Identity Theft, it is crucial to take proactive steps to safeguard personal information. Here are some essential tips: Protect Personal Information: Medicare and Social Security Numbers: Treat these numbers like you would a credit card number. Only provide them to healthcare providers you trust or legitimate insurers. Medicare Card: Guard your Medicare card carefully. Avoid carrying it unnecessarily and ensure it is stored securely. Understand How Your Information is Used: Familiarize yourself with how Medicare and other healthcare providers use and protect your personal information. Be cautious of unfamiliar requests for personal data. Monitor Healthcare Statements: Regularly review statements and Explanation of Benefits (EOB) Forms from Healthcare Providers and Insurers. Report any discrepancies or unfamiliar charges promptly. Be Aware of Medicare Policies: Medicare will never call you to sell you anything or visit your home for unsolicited purposes. Be wary of unexpected calls requesting personal information. Report Suspicious Activity: If you suspect medical identity theft or fraud, report it immediately to the appropriate authorities. Visit: https://www.identitytheft.gov/ or contact Medicare directly for assistance. What to Avoid To reduce the risk of Medical Identity Theft, avoid the following practices: Sharing Personal Information: Do not disclose your Medicare or Social Security Numbers unless necessary and to trusted entities. Accepting Unsolicited Offers: Refrain from accepting money or gifts in exchange for medical care or providing Personal Information to unknown parties. Unauthorized Access: Only allow Authorized Healthcare Providers to access your Medical Records or recommend services. In conclusion, protecting oneself from Medical Identity Theft requires vigilance and awareness. By safeguarding personal information, understanding how it is used, and promptly reporting suspicious activities, individuals can mitigate the risks associated with this increasingly prevalent form of Identity Theft. As technology evolves, so too must our efforts to protect our Personal Data from exploitation and misuse. By adhering to these guidelines and staying informed, individuals can minimize the likelihood of falling victim to Medical Identity Theft and ensure their healthcare remains secure and private. < Previous News Next News >

Tips for Fostering Dogs March 2, 2023 Share More animals are staying in shelters now than before the pandemic, according to a report from Shelter Animals Count, and just over half (53%) of dogs in shelters are adopted. However, the report also found that fostering dogs is a proven way to help pets find new homes. For those looking to support rescue dogs in need, the PEDIGREE® brand and its FOSTERVERSE™ program offer tips for a positive fostering experience and show how you can help end pet homelessness. To learn more and get involved, visit Pedigree.com/Fosterverse. Learn the Dog’s Background Every dog has a unique personality and set of needs, which is why it’s important to learn as much as you can before fostering a dog. Try to gather detailed information from the rescue organization or animal shelter before bringing the dog home, including age, breed, health conditions, dietary needs, energy level and even likes and dislikes. Learning about your foster dog’s background ahead of time can help you prepare and ensure a smooth transition to your home. Prepare Your Household Spend time making your home as dog-friendly and safe as possible by keeping electronics, cleaning supplies, sharp objects and other potentially dangerous items out of the way. This may mean taking a look at items in your home from the dog’s eye level to see what might be within reach. If you will be introducing a foster dog to other pets in your household, try to provide ample space to allow for slow introductions. Also consider looking for ways to designate spaces and belongings (like beds) between your pets so they can have comfortable places to retreat and rest. Train for Eventual Adoption Once your foster dog has adjusted to the new environment, consider gradually implementing routines. These routines may include activities like obedience training, physical exercise, house training and crate training. Teaching your foster pup good habits in preparation for adoption can increase the likelihood of finding a forever home. Market Your Foster Dog Spread the word in your community in person and on social media that you are fostering and helping find a forever home for your four-legged friend. A survey from AdoptAPet.com revealed the simple act of sharing information on social media about adoptable pets at local shelters can save a pet’s life, with 8 out of 10 (84%) organizations reporting that sharing pet content online increases the likelihood of pets being adopted. Help get the word out and show your community members why they should consider adopting your foster pup. Try Virtual Fostering While many people might want to foster a pup, there are many factors that may not allow them to foster pets in real life. That’s why the PEDIGREE brand is bringing fostering opportunities to the Metaverse for anyone who owns a digital property in Decentraland, offering a new platform for dog adoption. Users may interact with dogs they meet in the FOSTERVERSE program and learn about their backgrounds and adoption status, as well as ways to support dogs in need across the country. Dog lovers can choose to adopt a dog they meet virtually through AdoptAPet.com or donate to PEDIGREE Foundation to help similar adoptable pets in need across the country. Looking To Adopt If you are looking to adopt a pet the Humane Society of Broward County is the place to visit. Here are a couple of possible family members for you to go see, you just might find the love of your life. Drogo (ID A662920) would love to go home with you! This three-year-old shepherd mix sadly was given up because his family is moving and could not take him along. He is crate trained and enjoys going for walks. Drogo is very friendly and may jump up out of excitement when you come to meet him. An active family with kids would be ideal. If you have another dog at home, a meet and greet would be great to see if they get along. His former family said he is playful with other dogs and curious about cats. Tough toys would be recommended for him. Can Cleopatra (ID A639300) be part of your family? This regal beauty is 6 years old and was abandoned at the shelter. The volunteers say she loves to be pet and enjoys treats. She is super sweet and gets along with other felines. Thanks to a cat lover, her adoption fee has been sponsored. To meet Drogo or any of the other pets at the Humane Society of Broward County, visit www.humanebroward.com to complete the pre-adoption application and then stop by. The adoption kennels open daily at 11:00 a.m. and the shelter is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale – a block west of I95. If you have questions call 954-989-3977 ext. 6. The VCA Walk for the Animals is March 4! Hope to see you there. This is the shelter’s largest fundraiser and the Walk has a new location – Las Olas Intracoastal Promenade Park! < Previous News Next News >

Sweethearts In Search Of Home: Sadie And Bubbles Are Ready For Their Next Chapter South Florida Sun Times Sep 3, 2025 At the Humane Society of Broward County, two very different but equally lovable animals are waiting patiently for their second chance. One is a quirky, shepherd-looking pup with a heart full of loyalty. The other, a spunky little tuxedo kitten with a playful streak. While they may come from different backgrounds and have their own unique personalities, Sadie and Bubbles share one important thing in common: both are ready to fill a forever home with joy, fun, and unconditional love. Sadie: The Short-Legged Sweetheart Sadie may not fit neatly into any one breed category - she resembles a shepherd, but her short legs add a unique twist. What she may lack in pedigree, she more than makes up for in personality. At three years old, Sadie has already worn a few hats in life, including that of a loving mama dog. She arrived at the shelter after being transferred from another facility, and while her past remains a bit of a mystery, her future is looking bright and her heart is full of love. For a brief time, Sadie found herself in a home with an older gentleman who was charmed by her gentle spirit and eager to give her a chance. Although it turned out that Sadie’s energy level and playful nature were a little more than he had expected, their time together revealed a lot about what makes this dog so special. She’s house-trained, sleeps peacefully through the night, and adores her morning and evening walks. Her love of toys, intelligence, and affectionate nature make her a joy to be around. Sadie also gets along well with other dogs and thrives in a loving, active environment. What she needs now is a family who’s ready to embrace her lively spirit—one that will take her on daily adventures, toss around her favorite toys, and provide the affection she so willingly gives. Whether it’s hiking trails or cozying up for a movie night, Sadie is the kind of dog who will be by your side through it all. Bubbles: A Kitten with Big Personality Then there’s Bubbles, a four-month-old tuxedo kitten with energy to spare and a lot of love to give. When Bubbles first arrived at the shelter, he wasn’t in the best condition. A rough start and skin issues left him in need of some serious TLC, but thanks to the dedicated care of the Humane Society’s clinic staff, Bubbles is now healthy, thriving, and more adorable than ever. His black and white fur gives him the appearance of a well-dressed gentleman, but don’t let the tuxedo fool you—Bubbles is all about fun. He’s curious, playful, and endlessly entertaining. He’s also the last of his litter to be adopted, having watched his brothers and sisters find their forever homes one by one. Kittens like Bubbles do best when they have a playmate, which is why adopting two kittens can be a great option. Whether you already have a cat at home or are open to welcoming another kitten alongside Bubbles, he’s sure to bring joy, laughter, and lots of antics to your household. How to Adopt Both Sadie and Bubbles are available for adoption at the Humane Society of Broward County, located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33312. If either of these sweethearts has captured your heart—or if you’re simply looking to add a new furry friend to your family—the first step is to complete a pre-adoption application online at: https://www.humanebroward.com The shelter's adoption kennels are open daily starting at 11:00 a.m., giving you ample opportunity to meet Sadie, Bubbles, and many other pets hoping for a home. For questions, you can call: (954) 989-3977 and speak with a knowledgeable staff member. Whether you’re a dog lover seeking a loyal companion or a cat enthusiast looking for a playful sidekick, Sadie and Bubbles are shining examples of the love and companionship that shelter pets have to offer. Their next chapter is just waiting to be written—could it start with you? Sadie - ID#: 701219 Previous Next
