An Open Letter to Northern Virginians: We Need to Talk About Mental Health

6/28/2016

0 Comments

 
By Dr. Sunil Budhrani, Chief Medical Officer, Innovation Health

Even for a medical expert, mental health can be a difficult topic to talk about.

I know the terminology, proper treatment plans and resources. But as a society (even among health providers), we often don't know how to talk to those in need of mental health support - sometimes including ourselves. It's uncomfortable. It's emotional. It's personal. So we don't share. Don't ask. Don't act. And suicide rates across our nation skyrocket.

3 Things You Can Do to Help Protect your Business

6/21/2016

By Indy Zakaryte, Supporting Strategies - Northern Virginia

Your accounting service provider is in a position of trust - he or she works with the finances of your company. Ideally, your bookkeeper is your trusted advisor, a valuable member of your team who works to help achieve your company's vision and goals. That's why it's disheartening to hear stories about bookkeeping service providers abusing this position of trust.

"You're Fired!" - Or "I Quit!" - Remains Good Law in Virginia

6/16/2016

​ By Doug Taylor, Bean, Kinney, & Korman

It is still the law in Virginia that “You’re fired!” or words to that effect, is all that is needed in the way of advance notice of termination by an employer to an at-will employee. From the employee’s perspective, “I quit!” works equally well as advance termination notice to an at-will employer.

​By Jim Byers, Arlington Economic Development  

Each year, Arlington plays host to thousands of visitors who come to explore our nation's historic and cultural treasures and to celebrate Capital Pride! The monumental views and five bridges connecting to the District of Columbia certainly make for easy access to the festivities downtown. The presence of more than 40 hotels with rates averaging up to 20 percent less than those in downtown D.C. certainly doesn’t hurt.

SafeTrack is Here

On Saturday, June 4, Metro started its year-long initiative to address safety and repair issues for the Metrorail system. The repair work will be spread across 15 separate Safety Surges of intensive maintenance and repairs with the goal of compressing three years of work into one year.(See the surge schedule here) Fortunately for Arlington, many of the surges that directly affect the county are earlier in the schedule so we can get them over and done with sooner. Unfortunately though, just because a surge may not be affecting your particular commute route, does not mean you won't feel the impact of the reduced rail service elsewhere. Similar to how a single tracking event can reverberate throughout the whole Metro system, SafeTrack will only amplify this effect.
