Residents of rural northeast Nevada lack many of the social services available in the urban parts of Nevada and the nation. One of the services lacking in Battle Mountain, Nevada is quality after-school child care. The University of Nevada Cooperative Extension and the Lander County School District collaborated to develop and administer an after-school program for at-risk elementary students, which addressed this need. The program was designed to provide an educational experience while at the same time providing students with some of the protective factors needed to help them lead more productive lifes. This paper details how the program was carried out and shows the results of the program's evaluation. In lean economic times, a collaborative effort such as this may be one way to address youth needs in rural areas. The result was increased community support for quality after-school child care.

The legislator’s fee and spa subsidy established a source of income for a local government unit that has the status of a spa (health resort) municipality. The health resort municipality may collect the health resort fee from natural persons staying more than one day for health, tourist, leisure and training purposes in the area of the health resort, applying the allowances and preferences indicated in the relevant act implementing the own tasks in the scope of preserving the spa functions of health resort for the award of a spa subsidy from the state budget. Both sources of financing of the health resort municipality are the compensation for the lost income of the health resort municipalities due to statutory restrictions on the economic and investment development of this type of local government unit. Often there are conflicts of interpretation concerning the adoption and implementation of the collection of the health resort fee, as well as in matters concerning the rules, manner and purpose of the use of the fee and the health resort subsidy by the health resort municipalities. The aim of the article is to present the most important aspects of the essence and legal nature of the fee and spa subsidy. The legal basis defining the functioning of the fee and spa subsidy has been discussed in historical perspective, from the late nineteenth century to the present, in the context of the income component of the spa commune under the provisions of administrative and tax law. The research considerations were based on the review of legislative acts regulating this matter in the aspect of the repealed and applicable law and positions presented in the literature on the subject. Proposals for legislative changes in this area have been presented, simultaneously indicating the purpose and effects of the amendment.

This study intended to examine the status of the foodservice sanitary management in 185 family child care centers and evaluate the effect after receiving the service of Center for Children's Foodservices Management (CCFM). The compliance rate of the personal sanitary management area was 55.7% showing low out of 6 foodservice sanitary areas and in the detailed item, using the dishcloth, glove and apron separately for cooking and cleaning was 19.5%, wearing sanitary apron and gloves when distributing food was 46.5% and adequate temperature management of refrigerator and freezer was 54.1% showing low compliance rate. After the first and second sanitary management supports of CCFM, the significant improvement was found in 21 items out of total 27 items (p<0.05,p<0.01, p<0.001), and the total score was increased from 69.70 point significantly to 80.63 points after the first sanitary education and to 84.98 points after the second education (out of full score of 100 points).Particularly, judging by that while there were the items that have been improved rapidly after the first visit, there were the items that were improved significantly after receiving the second support than the first support, it needs the continuous sanitary education. Many family child care centers have yet to receive support from the CCFM. Therefore, more child care centers should receive the support of the CCFM constantly.
