    Urban Bush Women Celebrates Bessie Award Nominations & Winter 2026 Touring

    Non-profit arts organization receives two Bessie Award nominations as its new company prepares for national tour in February 2026

    BROOKLYN, N.Y., Jan. 8, 2026 / PRZen / As Urban Bush Women (UBW), a Black women-led theatrical dance company and social activism ensemble, prepares for touring, the organization celebrates two Outstanding Choreographer/Creator nominations announced by The Bessies in November 2025. Former Co-Artistic Directors Chanon Judson and Mame Diarra Speis received a 2024 nomination for Haint Blu, and Urban Bush Women received a 2025 nomination for SCAT!… The Complex Lives of Al & Dot, Dot & Al Zollar directed and co-choreographed by returning Founding Artistic Director Jawole Willa Jo Zollar and Vincent E. Thomas, with support from SCAT! Associate Producer Cheri L. Stokes and Movement Coach Bennalldra Williams. UBW especially thanks Talvin Wilks for his dramaturgy for both nominated works.

    “It always feels good to be acknowledged by your community,” says Zollar. “I am honored to be nominated with so many fantastic artists whose work I admire and continue to be inspired by their brilliance.”

    The 2024 and 2025 Bessie Award nominations include numerous members of UBW’s ecosystem, spanning from UBW Company alumni, BOLD facilitators, collaborators, Choreographic Center Initiative (CCI) fellows, and Summer Leadership Institute (SLI) alumni across its 40-year legacy. “We are ecstatic that the Company has been honored with two Bessie nominations—for large-scale, landscape shifting works—and delighted to see so many UBW alumni also mentioned. This is a powerful testament to the tenacity and artistry of the Bush,” says Executive Director Michele Kumi Baer.

    In February 2026, the Company will take this exciting momentum on the road with a four-city national tour, THIS IS RISK. This energetically charged evening features the return of Jawole’s Shelter, the full performance of Batty Moves, last performed in 2002, and a new commission, Contemplations on Legacy, by long-time UBW collaborator and choreographer Vincent E. Thomas. The program will feature new company members welcomed earlier this year: Mikaela Brandon, Ashley Bromfield, Cameron Harris, Amina Konate, and Sade Morgan, as well as returning members Keola Jones and Kentoria Earle, with live music by new percussionist Daniel Prim and long-time UBW musician and vocalist Grace Galu Kalambay.

  • CollabWait to Launch Innovative Waitlist Management Platform for Behavioral Health Services

    CollabWait to Launch Innovative Waitlist Management Platform for Behavioral Health Services

    Collaborative ABA Services, LLC has launched the initial rollout of CollabWait, a cloud-based application designed to streamline how behavioral health agencies manage and collaborate on client waitlists. The platform also helps families track their status and find available services in their area with greater transparency.

    MIDDLETOWN, Conn., Jan. 8, 2026 / PRZen / CollabWait was developed in response to the growing challenge of long wait times for services such as ABA therapy, speech therapy, counseling, and evaluations for autism. Many families spend months, sometimes more than a year awaiting care, often with limited updates on where they stand. At the same time, agencies struggle to keep their waitlists organized while balancing constant inquiries from families seeking information.

    CollabWait offers a solution by bringing waitlist management into one easy-to-use system. Companies can securely maintain their lists, share updates with families, and collaborate with other providers to make referrals based on real-time availability. As more agencies register for the platform, collaboration expands, increasing referral opportunities between providers while improving visibility for families seeking services. Families benefit from increased visibility, allowing them to see the status of their requests and connect with multiple agencies participating in the system. Additional features are currently in development to further enhance collaboration between providers and improve the overall experience for both agencies and families.

    The launch has started internally at Collaborative ABA Services, LLC, where the platform is first being used to manage the company’s existing waitlist. From there, phase one will expand to onboarding behavioral health and developmental service providers, including ABA therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and social work and counseling practices. Agencies will soon be able to join the platform through a free 7-day trial, upload their waitlists, and become visible referral options for families actively searching for services. As CollabWait continues to evolve, ongoing system enhancements are being implemented as part of the rollout process. The last phase will conclude with welcoming families to use the platform and allowing them to request services directly from registered providers and better understand what care options are available in their area.

    For more information about CollabWait, visit www.collabwait.com.

  • Elizabeth McLaughlin, Founder and CEO of Red Wagon Group, named 2026 Presidential Leadership Scholar

    Elizabeth McLaughlin, Founder and CEO of Red Wagon Group, named 2026 Presidential Leadership Scholar

    Joins an accomplished network of leaders; will learn from the presidential leadership of George W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Lyndon B. Johnson

    LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. 8, 2026 / PRZen / Elizabeth McLaughlin, founder and chief executive officer of Red Wagon Group, has been named one of 60 Scholars who will form the Presidential Leadership Scholars’ (PLS) 11th annual class. Over the past decade, PLS has brought together nearly 600 established, purpose-driven leaders to make a difference in the world as they learn about leadership through the lens of the presidential experiences of George W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Lyndon B. Johnson.

    The class was selected after a rigorous application and review process. Scholars were chosen based on their leadership and the strength of their personal leadership projects aimed at addressing a critical challenge or need in a community, profession, or organization.

    With more than 25 years of leadership experience in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry, McLaughlin has led sales, marketing, product development, and commercial strategy across fast-scaling startups, privately held businesses, and global public companies.

    Most recently, McLaughlin spent more than a decade at Westrock Coffee Company in executive leadership roles, including Group President as well as the Executive Vice President of Sales. She helped guide Westrock Coffee’s transformation into a publicly traded, mission-driven global enterprise, leading commercial strategy and product innovation for some of the world’s largest retail and foodservice brands.

    Through Red Wagon Group, McLaughlin now advises leadership teams on growth strategy, sales transformation, and consumer-led innovation, with a particular focus on building resilient, sustainable supply chains and commercially viable solutions that create long-term value.

    “I am deeply honored to be selected as a Presidential Leadership Scholar,” said McLaughlin. “This opportunity to learn alongside extraordinary leaders from diverse backgrounds — and to challenge myself to grow as a values-driven leader — is both humbling and energizing. I look forward to applying these lessons to the work I care deeply about, particularly in building resilient, sustainable consumer supply chains.”

    During the six-month program, McLaughlin will advance a Personal Leadership Project focused on strengthening food systems “from crop to cart” — exploring commercially viable, innovation-driven approaches to improving supply-chain resilience, supporting producers, and expanding access for consumers. The project reflects her long-standing commitment to building sustainable, inclusive growth across the food and consumer ecosystem.

    Over the course of the program, Scholars will travel to each participating presidential center to learn from former presidents, key former administration officials, business and civic leaders, and leading academics. They will study and put into practice varying approaches to leadership and exchange ideas to help strengthen their impact.

    About Presidential Leadership Scholars

    The Presidential Leadership Scholars program is a partnership among the presidential centers of George W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Lyndon B. Johnson. To learn more, visit www.presidentialleadershipscholars.org.

  • Adam Clermont Releases New Book – Profit Before People: When Corporations Knew It Was Dangerous and Sold It Anyway

    Adam Clermont Releases New Book – Profit Before People: When Corporations Knew It Was Dangerous and Sold It Anyway

    New Book Exposes How Deadly Corporate Decisions Are Made – From Thalidomide and the Ford Pinto to Everclear 190 Proof Grain Alcohol and “Forever Chemicals”

    CENTRAL, Hong Kong, Jan. 8, 2026 / PRZen / Profit Before People is a meticulously documented examination of what happens inside organizations when they discover a product is dangerous—and keep selling it anyway. Written by Adam Clermont, author of Amazon #1 New Release Hong Kong Belongs to Hongkongers and a Hong Kong- and US-qualified attorney with over 25 years’ experience in criminal and regulatory litigation, the book traces a pattern repeating across industries and decades.

    It begins with a catastrophic injury: a 22-year-old Hong Kong law student burned at a fraternity gathering in Massachusetts. The cause was 190-proof grain alcohol—a product whose warning label “CONTENTS MAY IGNITE OR EXPLODE” was quietly removed, and whose bottle lacked a safety device costing cents that prevents “flame-jetting” fireballs.

    From that case, Clermont follows the paper trail into archives and court records, examining birth defects from a 1960s sedative, defective contraceptives, fuel tank explosions in compact cars, ignition failures causing crashes, exploding airbags, lung disease from insulation materials, addictive painkillers, emissions deception, and widespread chemical contamination.

    The same sequence repeats: internal testing reveals danger; engineers raise concerns; fixes are rejected as too expensive; marketing continues; warnings are removed; and when deaths mount, legal teams contest science, challenge victims, and weaponize delay. Accountability arrives years too late—if at all.

    Profit Before People asks: when safety competes with profit, who decides which matters more—and on what authority?

  • Japan’s Patented “Hammock’n” Smartphone Band Targets Hand Fatigue From Long Phone Use

    Japan’s Patented “Hammock’n” Smartphone Band Targets Hand Fatigue From Long Phone Use

    SPRASANN LLC has launched Hammock’n, a Japanese-designed, non-adhesive smartphone band that supports the fingers like a soft hammock. The strap aims to reduce hand and little-finger strain during long phone use while helping prevent drops.

    TOKYO, Japan, Jan. 6, 2026 / PRZen / SPRASANN LLC today announced the international launch of Hammock’n, a patented smartphone band developed in Japan to help reduce hand and finger strain during everyday phone use. The company has opened an English-language global site and online store to serve customers worldwide.

    In user research conducted in Japan, 89.6% of regular smartphone users reported feeling pain, fatigue, or discomfort in their hands during daily use (n=500). Based on these findings, SPRASANN identified hand fatigue from prolonged smartphone use as a widespread issue and set out to create a solution that supports the device while relaxing the grip.

    Hammock’n is a hand strap that is installed between the smartphone and its case. The component that anchors the strap to the case is separated from the soft band where the fingers rest, allowing the load to be distributed across a wider area—similar to how a hammock supports the body. This design aims to keep the phone secure while reducing pressure on the fingers, even during long sessions.

    Instead of adhesive tape, Hammock’n uses a non-adhesive structure that takes advantage of the camera opening and charging port of the phone case. This enables users to attach and remove the band without leaving sticky residue and to reuse it on other compatible cases. The structure is protected by a Japanese patent (Patent No. 7351074), and patent applications are pending in the United States, China, and Europe.

    The product line includes genuine leather models suitable for business use, denim models for casual everyday wear, and a studded “Hammock’n Rock” version designed with music and street culture in mind. Additional colors and designs are planned as the brand expands internationally.

    To support global customers, SPRASANN has implemented an e-commerce system on its official website. Visitors can review product information, design variations, and size details before purchasing Hammock’n directly online.

    Official brand site: https://hammockn.com/

    SPRASANN is also seeking distributors, retailers, and collaboration partners in regions where smartphone use is widespread and hand fatigue is a concern. Potential partners include smartphone accessory shops, electronics retailers, online stores, music-related stores, live-venue merch booths, motorcycle shops, and street-culture select stores.

    About Hammock’n

    Hammock’n is a non-adhesive smartphone band developed in Japan to provide a more relaxed grip while keeping the phone secure. By distributing pressure across a soft, hammock-like band, it is designed to support one-handed use and help reduce strain on the fingers during prolonged use. The band can be attached to a wide range of smartphone cases that have compatible camera and charging openings.

    About SPRASANN LLC

    SPRASANN LLC is a Tokyo-based company that plans, designs, manufactures, and sells smartphone accessories, including the patented Hammock’n smartphone band. The company was founded in January 2024 and focuses on products that combine ergonomic comfort with playful, expressive design.

  • RNHA Affirms Support for President Trump as Nation Marks Historic Victory for Freedom

    RNHA Affirms Support for President Trump as Nation Marks Historic Victory for Freedom

    RNHA Voices Support for President Trump’s Victory in Venezuela

    WASHINGTON, Jan. 5, 2026 / PRZen / As we begin the new year, the Republican National Hispanic Assembly (RNHA) proudly stands with President Donald J. Trump and his administration as they reaffirm America’s unwavering commitment to freedom, security, and democratic leadership in the Western Hemisphere. This moment marks a strong and hopeful start to the year, one defined by decisive leadership, moral clarity, and action.

    The removal of Nicolás Maduro represents a historic turning point for the people of Venezuela and a clear signal that tyranny, corruption, and repression have no permanent place in the Americas. When the United States leads with strength and conviction, the cause of liberty advances- not only for one nation, but for an entire region.

    Earlier this year, RNHA had the honor of hosting an Inauguration Ball in January 2025, where we invited Edmundo González, the legitimate democratic leader of Venezuela. His presence was a powerful reminder that the fight for freedom was not lost – and that change was coming. At that moment, we knew freedom was near, and Today that belief has been affirmed.
    RNHA extends its congratulations to Secretary of State Marco Rubio for his steadfast leadership in advancing a foreign policy rooted in national sovereignty, democratic values, and accountability. We also recognize the leadership of the Secretary of War and the men and women who serve to defend peace, regional stability, and American security.

    RNHA Chairwoman Elisa Slider issued the following statement: “Today is a historic victory for freedom. We thank the administration -especially President Donald J. Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio -for their bold leadership and unwavering resolve. The capture of Nicolás Maduro is a blessing for the Venezuelan people and a turning point for democracy. This is a day of hope, justice, and celebration-for Venezuela and for all who stand for freedom.”

    RNHA Vice Chairman Luis Figueroa added, “This moment reminds us that freedom is worth defending. Strong leadership matters, and when America leads with conviction, the cause of liberty moves forward. RNHA has always stood with those fighting for democracy, and Today that stand has been vindicated.”

    Founded in 1967, the Republican National Hispanic Assembly remains committed to faith, family, freedom, and opportunity and to supporting leaders who defend those principles at home and abroad.

  • Political Division and Safety Concerns Drive Record Number of Americans to Seek “Golden Visas,” La Vida Survey Finds

    Political Division and Safety Concerns Drive Record Number of Americans to Seek “Golden Visas,” La Vida Survey Finds

    More than 8 in 10 cite political concerns as top reason for pursuing second residency or citizenship, according to new data from La Vida Golden Visas.

    LONDON & WASHINGTON, Oct. 29, 2025 / PRZen / A new survey by international investment migration firm La Vida Golden Visas reveals that political polarization and safety concerns are driving a record surge in Americans pursuing second residencies or citizenships abroad.

    The La Vida American Investor Survey, conducted in October 2025 among over 10,000 U.S.-based clients, found that 85.1% of respondents cited political reasons as the primary factor behind their interest in investment migration — more than double those who listed healthcare (39.1%) or the rising cost of living (35.9%) as major influences.

    “Plan B” Becomes a Priority for Wealthy Americans

    When asked about their goals for obtaining a second residency or citizenship, 76.4% said they were seeking a “Plan B” or back-up option, while 52% said they were considering relocation in the future.

    “In just a few years, the motivations of American investors have shifted dramatically,” said Paul Williams, CEO of La Vida Golden Visas. “What used to be about convenience, travel, or lifestyle has now become about security, political stability, and ensuring their families have options in uncertain times.”

    Political Divide Reflected in Migration Intentions

    The survey found that Democrats made up 46% of respondents, compared to 10% identifying as Republicans and 29% as Independents — a strong indication that left-leaning voters are leading the push for overseas residency options.

    This finding aligns with La Vida’s internal analytics, which showed that 14 of the top 15 U.S. states searching for Golden Visa programs after the 2024 elections were Democratic-leaning.

    “The trend is clear — Americans are increasingly looking outward,” Williams added. “Political polarization has reached a point where many feel they need a contingency plan, regardless of where they stand ideologically.”

    Safety, Lifestyle, and Quality of Life Among Top Concerns

    Beyond politics, survey participants expressed deep concerns about gun violence, cultural division, and the erosion of work-life balance in the United States. Respondents said these issues are prompting them to seek a calmer, safer environment abroad.

    “We’re hearing from clients who want a better quality of life — one that prioritizes safety, education, and stability,” said Williams. “They’re not necessarily looking to leave America right away, but they want the freedom to choose when and how they do.”

    Where Americans Are Investing

    In the past year, Portugal has remained the top destination for U.S. investors pursuing European residency through investment, offering flexible private equity fund options. Italy’s new Golden Visa program is gaining momentum, while Greece continues to attract interest with its real estate pathway starting from €250,000.

    For investors seeking immediate citizenship, Grenada stands out as the leading choice, offering a family of four the option to invest in real estate for under $400,000.

    Nearly half of survey participants reported a net worth between $1 million and $5 million, with over one-third above $5 million.

    A New Era of Global Mobility for U.S. Investors

    La Vida reports that 2025 has seen the fastest growth in U.S. inquiries in the company’s history, underscoring a broader trend of Americans pursuing global flexibility and security.

    “We’re entering a new era where international mobility is becoming an essential part of wealth and family planning,” said Williams. “For many Americans, a second residency is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity.”

    About La Vida Golden Visas

    La Vida is a leading advisory firm specialising in residency and citizenship by investment (RCBI). With clients in over 150 countries, La Vida has successfully assisted thousands of investors and their families in securing second residency or citizenship through its global network of government-approved programs.
