United Way provides free tax preparation – WSBT (South Bend – Michiana)
by CpU on Feb.01, 2010, under Guest Post, Michiana, Michiana News
Read the Original Post @ WSBT: United Way provides free tax preparation
![]() |
By Alyssa Rossomme (arossomme@wsbt.com)
SOUTH BEND — The envelopes from your bank and employer may be starting to pile up at home. It is the time of year people are starting to do their taxes. The United Way is helping local residents keep pennies in their pocket, by offering free tax preparation for those in need. |
Trained tax advisers, including some former accountants, will be at many sites throughout South Bend, Elkhart, and Plymouth in the next couple of months. The volunteers will prepare and file taxes for free, for people who need the help most.
Tiffany Reddick is one of the tax assistance volunteers. Last year, she was one of the people who benefited from the free service.
“They were looking to help me get as much money as possible. You know, they weren’t just rushing through everything. They were taking their time, asking me questions, making sure I was getting everything I could get,” Reddick said.
“The benefit we’re looking to help people with is to keep their money in their pocket,” said Dawn Chapla of the United Way of St. Joseph County. “That’s kind of a plain way to say it.”
This year, the United Way ramped up its volunteer income tax assistance program because of a growing need. More than 75 volunteers, like Reddick, will file refunds for up to 2000 families in this area.
“There are a lot of people who don’t have work or whose incomes are diminished for a number of reasons ‒ or are afraid they will be one of those who won’t have incomes they’ve been used to ‒ so saving every penny is important,” said Kay Ball of the United Way of St. Joseph County.
Reddick said she not only saved money on the preparation, she also got a bigger return than she ever had before.
The tax preparers will make sure every person who uses the free service receives the earned income tax credit if they qualify. The government credit gives low-income workers a portion of their paid taxes back. It can give those families a couple extra thousand dollars to help pay their bills.
To benefit from the tax assistance program, call 211 to set up an appointment. There are 9 sites throughout St. Joseph, Marshall, and Elkhart counties. They will let you know what items you need to bring with you.

DeMeyer out as resource officer at Penn – WSBT
by CpU on Jan.29, 2010, under Article Responses, Michiana, Michiana News
Read WSBT’s news story about DeMeyer’s departure from Penn High School as their resource officer.
(Image courtesy of Janar Stewart – Tribune)
Erin Blasko, Tribune Staff Writer states:
“Following allegations he inappropriately touched a female student, police and school officials have decided to remove Lt. Chris DeMeyer as resource officer at Penn High School.”
**Note, even though this is the other side of this story, I am in no way siding with either side. I know that WSBT is monitoring all of the comments posted about DeMeyer and removing anything negative in relation to this situation. I personally don’t find that right, but it is their website. They can moderate it how they please, and I am sure for good public relation reasons. If you think something is wrong then speak your peace about how you feel and let the other people decide if you are credible or not – The quoted items have their sources listed so you are welcome to follow up at their locations.**
Penn High School has gone through a few resource officers. Being a graduate of Penn High School in 2005, I’ve heard about many incidents revolving around school officers. I guess it goes to show that students don’t like being treated like criminals. Unfortunate that other student members of society have ruined normal schooling life with violence and misbehavior.
During a group search for a stolen iPod, a 17 year old female student felt she was violated by Lt. Chris DeMeyer during his search. Young teenage girls are sensitive about their bodies and those actions can cause misconceptions. I was reading a forum about DeMeyer where some posters seem to think that DeMeyer would do something along those lines… I don’t personally have any idea about DeMeyer but it appears he doesn’t have some fans here and there…
“Demeyer has a lot of twisted ideas and often speaks crudely in front of women. His past shows he does not care about women and thinks of them as objects. Could he have done this? yes I would believe that, so would alot of others that know him. It takes a lot of guts to stand up for what is right and go against a police officer. Good for the mom for taking a stand and bringing attention to it. Maybe Demeyer will finally get the help he needs.” – Citizen101 from the South Bend Tribune’s Forums
DeMeyer will be replaced by Cpl. Rebecca Childers, a female officer.
Cpl. Rebecca Childers, South Bend — Childers is a member of the St. Joseph County Police Department. She is in charge of the child seat safety program, is a certified child passenger safety technician, and also developed and runs a program to educate teens on the dangers of drunken driving. She also has worked with Drug Abuse Resistance Education to educate students about the effects of drugs and alcohol. She was a former officer at Schmucker Middle School

12 Employees didn’t make it to work today because at 5:00 AM this morning their work was burning down. This is unfortunate to hear, and I hope things go well for all of those employees and families in tough times like these.

Quoted WSBT:
WSBT-TV reports those who were in the building were able to get out safely. There are no homes near the scene of the fire, but power lines are a concern in the area. A train has been prevented from traveling through the area of the fire, and roads have been blocked near the fire.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
