Welcome
Hagen & Cramer
Welcome to the first issue of the premier, international journal of human
services – Human Services Today. We believe we have the makings
of an important collaboration of people involved in Human Services world
wide; a means of communicating with each other on a very immediate basis.
For this journal, we have defined human services in the broadest sense,
encompassing all those activities contributing toward the improvement
in the human condition. Though we are originating here in the US, the
international focus is critical to the conversation. Our commitment is
to have at least one article that originates outside the US each issue.
The HST editorial board is in the process of development. We are waiting
for a yes from people working in human services in several different countries;
but elected to start with some of the best known and well respected professionals
in human services in this country. You will recognize their names from
conferences and publications related to human services. Please consider
whether you have an area of expertise that would enhance this publication
through your involvement on the editorial board. If you have suggestions
for colleagues both nationally and internationally, please forward them.
These editorial positions are not the passive review and return position
of some traditional journals. HST needs board members to actively encourage
authorship of ideas and activities, especially those that may be off the
beaten path.
In the next issue a new section will be introduced. Called “In
the Field”, it will highlight people and projects though short (up
to 3 text pages) summaries and provides access for further information
via email and/or webpage links. Also the next issue is an invited piece,
“A Conflict Based Advocacy Strategy for Human Services.”
As we write this we feel the energy that the immediacy of an electronic
journal generates and look forward to hearing your comments, suggestions
as well as reviewing your manuscript or accepting your offer to serve
on our editorial board.
Infusing Technology into a Human Services Curriculum: A Developmental
Approach
Cramer & Hagen
Curriculum development to meet the changing needs of human service graduates
is an ongoing process in most human service programs. In the Human Service
Program at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, curriculum review and
development is addressed, in part, through the involvement of our Community
Advisory Board which meets twice per year. This article will discuss how
we infused technology into our program.

Shopping While Black:Applying the Civil Rights Act of 1866 to
Cases of Consumer Racial Profiling
by Anne-Marie Harris, Esq.
Since the 1960s, a great deal of attention has been paid to eradicating
discrimination in most sectors of U.S. society. However, most people are
surprised to learn that consumer discrimination is not illegal per se.
Currently, there are no laws that directly address the issue of discrimination
against consumers. This article will describe Consumer Racial Profiling,
discuss the relevant parts of two federal civil rights laws, summarize
the case law since 1990 and argue that people of color will not be treated
equally in the marketplace until the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is amended
and the Civil Rights Act of 1866 is interpreted more broadly.
