Sutherland Outstanding Scholarship Book Award The Law & Society Division is pleased to announce that the 2019 Sutherland Outstanding Scholarship Book Award winner is Dr. Trevor Hoppe, for Punishing Disease: HIV and the Criminalization of Sickness. The award is given periodically for best contribution to the law and society literature. Dr. Hoppe is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. We would also like to thank Dr. Katie Durante for chairing the Sutherland Outstanding Scholarship Book Award committee, and judges Dr. Anna Linders and Lloyd Klein, for their service. The division is only possible because of the hard work of our members! Graduate Student Paper Award We are excited to announce the winner of our graduate student paper award, Michael Alexander Gould-Wartofsky, for his paper From Broken Windows to Broken Doors:  Policing the “Sanctuary City” and the Anti-Sanctuary Suburb in Greater New York City and Greater Los Angeles, 2002 - 17. Michael is a graduate student in the Department of Sociology at New York University. And of course, thank you to the judges for their hard work in determining a winner. Session Highlight Session 100: Sanctuary: Here (NYC) and Beyond The special project will allow for discussion between Donald Anthonyson, the Director of Families for Freedom (FFF) and division members, in order to better understand immigration enforcement, detention, deportation practices and policies. The hope is that the division members will then be able to consider how they might take this back to their own communities. Division members are also expected to bring their own experiences in this arena to have an informed discussion about various efforts throughout the country. Mr. Anthonyson has been a member of Families for Freedom (FFF) since 2004. At FFF, Donald was previously a lead organizer, former board member, and has led the efforts of the International Deportee Justice Campaign. He also produced for a monthly radio show, the War on Immigrants Report, that aired on 99.5 FM WBAI. Donald migrated to the US in 1979 from Antigua and has been involved in various social issues ranging from police brutality and anti-racial responses to immigration. Founded in September 2002, FFF is a New York-based multi-ethnic human rights organization by and for families facing and fighting deportation. They are immigrant prisoners (detainees), former immigrant prisoners, their loved ones, or individuals at risk of deportation. They come from dozens of countries, across continents. FFF seeks to appeal the laws that are tearing apart our homes and neighborhoods, and to build the power of immigrant communities as communities of color, to provide a guiding voice in the growing movement from immigrant rights as human rights. FFF has evolved into an organizing center against deportation. They are a source of support, education, and campaigns for directly affected families and communities — locally and nationally.

Member Spotlight: Dr. William Cabin Division member Dr. William Cabin was recently featured in the Temple OWL News in the Temple College of Public Health, where he is employed, for his many recent achievements. Dr. William Cabin will make two presentations June 7, 2019 at the Canadian-Australian Health Sociology Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia. Dr. Cabin's presentations are titled: "Nurses Claim Medicare Home Health Neglect of the Social Determinants of Health Jeopardizes Patient Care" and "Home Care Social Workers Believe Limited Coverage Increases Patient Health Risks." The presentations are based on interviews of 37 home care nurses and 23 home care social workers.   Both studies find that limited social work coverage, limited coverage of evidence-based psycho-social interventions, and no coverage of support services to address patient and caregiver social needs result in unmet needs; exacerbated and additional patient and caregiver conditions; increased home care re-admissions; and increased discharges from home care to hospital and institutional care settings.   Dr. William Cabin will be making four presentations at the 9th International Conference on Social Work in Health and Mental Health July 24-25th, 2019 in York England. Two presentations focus on unmet needs of Medicare home health patients and their caregivers.   His presentation Until There's A Cure: Medicare Ignores Alzheimer's Home Care Patient Needs Despite the Effectiveness of Evidence-based Interventions is based on interviews of 33 home care nurses, and 27 home care social workers. His presentation "It's A No Care Zone": Medicare Home Health's Failure to Address the Social Determinants of Health is based on interviews of 37 home care nurses and 23 home care social workers.   A third presentation is in the Work in Progress category and entitled Enhanced Social Work Coverage of Home-based Alzheimer's Patients Improves Mental Health Outcomes. The year-long study, of which Dr. Cabin was part of the team, used a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of an enhanced Medicare home health social work benefit against a Treatment As Usual social work benefit.   Dr. Cabin's fourth presentation focuses on hospice care and is entitled Is Less Better? Hospice Social Workers and Nurses Challenged by Balancing Care and Financial Considerations. The study, based on interviews of 28 hospice nurses and 23 hospice social workers, focuses on caregiving and ethical challenges resulting from the for-profit-oriented, managed care model of the Medicare home health benefit.   Dr. William Cabin will have a busy August at two conferences in New York City. As outgoing Vice President of the Society for the Study of Social Problems (SSSP) Dr. Cabin will Chair the Resolutions Committee, Committee on Social Action , and a special Presidential Panel with the Presidents of the nation's four major sociology associations. In addition Dr. Cabin will be the Presider at five different presentation panels. He also will make three presentations. One is entitled Enhanced Social Work Coverage of Home-based Alzheimer's Patients Improves Mental Health Outcomes. The year-long study, of which Dr. Cabin was part of the team, used a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of an enhanced Medicare home health social work benefit against a Treatment As Usual social work benefit. The second is entitled Organizational and Policy Determinants of Care for Community-based Medicare Clients. The study uses an Institutional Ethnography approach with preliminary results of interviews of 10 home care agency executives; 27 home health aides; 22 home care nurses; 18 physical therapists; 13 social workers; and 36 home care clients. The study focuses on the degree to which Medicare laws and regulations impede meeting client and caregiver needs and exacerbating their conditions. The SSSP conference will be August 9-11. 2019 in New York City.     In addition, Dr. Cabin will make two presentations August 12, 2019 at the American Sociological Association's annual meeting in New York City.  The two studies focus on Medicare home health's neglect of addressing social determinants of health and resulting consequences, based on interviews of 37 home care nurses and 23 home care social workers.
