It is these professionals to whom families often turn for trusted guidance when faced with ethical and moral questions raised as a result of medical advances in the arena of genetic research. "When a family seeks guidance from their pastor or counselor, for example, the professional wants to be of greatest assistance. This March of Dimes conference, the Community Responses to Genetic Issues Conference, is our effort to equip the professional and therefore help families," said Debbie Thompson, a neonatal clinical specialist at Brenner Children's Hospital/NC Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem. Thompson is a March of Dimes Volunteer. The Bowman Gray School of Medicine and the Northwest Area Health Education Center (AHEC) will assist the March of Dimes in presenting the genetics-issues conference, which will cover topics such as crisis/grief counseling and ethical concerns about genetics in the future. A panel of ministers and a panel of families will be part of the day. The conference, which runs from 8:30 am until 4pm, costs $30 to attend. The registration fee includes materials, break lunch. Deadline for registration is August 12. Conference attendees should make checks payable to the March of Dimes.

Many times our youth are so preoccupied with athletics, dating and whatever else they can find to take their minds off of receiving a quality education, until they miss out on the "good" things in life. Reginald Lewis refused to miss out on anything. According to Joseph Haskins, In 1987 Lewis sold McCall Pattern Co., for a ninety to one return, and purchased a worldwide food conglomerate, Beatrice Foods International... president of the President's round table, Mr. Lewis' success story should serve as an inspiration to African American youth everywhere..."With hard work and dedication, all dreams can become a reality." ^UBuunv^ Kat Pavilion CtnWr Subway Only.
