JANUARY 29, 2021, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A7 SATF, continued from Page A1 Zoom meetings have made it easier to have conversations with people from every corner of the state without anyone having to shell out money for travel and hotel expenses. Instructors train people to respond in a trauma- informed way, but their main focus is prevention programs to address the root causes of sexual assault. Prevention work focuses on children still learning societal expectations. “We facilitate funding for non-profi t programs that do violence prevention predominately in K-12 settings,” Roland-Schwartz said. The goal is to catch behaviors and correct them early to shift the social norms that lead to predatory environments later in life. Because everyone is capable of causing harm, proper education about abuse and violence of any kind at a young age sets a standard for behavioral and social norms. The SATF staff of 10 believes deeply in prevention work, one of the things that weighs heavily on Roland- Schwartz is when people assume sexual abuse and violence is inevitable. SATF is aiming to build a better tomorrow by teaching children what their resources are, inspiring autonomy, choice, privacy and well-being for all people. Attempting to reduce the staggering number of sexual assault victims and eliminate risk factors can be upsetting; Roland-Schwartz’s job is one that comes with what she calls “existential dread,” a moment when an individual questions whether their job has meaning or value and is negatively impacted by contemplation. In short, an occupational hazard of her job is bearing the weight of the world on her shoulders. “The lifespan of an advocate in this work is about four years and then folks burn out,” Roland-Schwartz said. One thing that sparks her hope is SATFs involvement in the legislature. Some of the current bills for the 2021 legislative session involve strengthening Oregon’s Sexual Abuse Protective Order, ensuring continued funding for Oregon’s domestic and sexual violence non-profi t programs, and further housing protections for survivors. Now in her 20th year as an advocate, Roland-Schwartz keeps her focus on handing off a better world to the next generation by teaching the next generation to be better.

Harlan said costs to haulers have increased despite its decision to delay an increase for a year. “Processing costs for co-mingled recycling have risen 13%. Mixed organics [processing] has increased by 19.3%. Labor costs have gone up by 2.2%, and we expect more increases in all areas this year,” Harlan said. Aside from increased costs, Harlan said the haulers are trying to achieve a 10% profi t, the goal throughout the industry. With the approval granted by the council, Loren’s and Valley Recycling’s profi t margin will rise from 6.4% to 9.2%. After the 2021 increase, Harlan said, the haulers will achieve the 10% target. Without the increases profi t margins would drop to 3.4%. Day took issue with the reasoning and the timing of the request. “Why do I care what the industry’s target is? We are not here to make sure private business is making a profi t,” Day said. Raising costs on essential FOLLOW THE KEIZERTIMES ON: services when people are struggling with the economic impacts of a global pandemic were also part of Day’s no-vote. Essentially forcing haulers to operate at such a low margin gave Councilor Kyle Juran pause. “If I were to try to operate on a 3% margin it would be hard to keep it going year to year. If I had to ask permission to raise my rates, I would be in trouble,” Juran said. Even with the rate hike, Keizer won’t be an outlier compared to rates in nearby cities or Marion County as a whole. “When I look at the rates and compare them to others, I think Keizer is still getting a pretty good bargain,” said Councilor Dan Kohler. John Sulivan, general manager of Loren’s Sanitation, said both of Keizer’s haulers are willing to work with any residents having trouble meeting the monthly cost of garbage and recycling collection. Calling the haulers’ main offi ces is the fi rst step to resolving the situation. obituaries Submit an obituary through our website at keizertimes.com or send an email to: editor@keizertimes.com Donna Mae Maynard December 26, 1944 – December 28, 2020 Donna Mae Maynard was born Dec. 26, 1944 in Red Deer Alberta, Canada.
