Boys Club Case Study

I decided to do my field study at the Boys Ranch Town (BRT), which is a residential private facility that houses boys that have low level behavior issues or simply don’t have a home to go to. BRT is apart of Oklahoma Baptist Homes for Children (OBHC) they get all of their funding from donors who appreciate that things that OBHC and BRT are doing for the community. BRT is on a working ranch in which the boys live on and help maintain. The Boys Ranch accepts boys from ages 9-15, but residents can live on the campus until they graduate high school. The average length of stay is about 18 months.

Boys and Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) is a countrywide organization of local subdivisions that provide after-school programs for young people. The purpose of BGCA is to provide young people with a safe environment during weekends and after school. As a non-profit organization, Boys and Girls Clubs of America run after-school clubs that serves over 4 million children across 3,400 facilities throughout 50 states and Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. The organization also has 150 clubs located on the Native American tribal lands as well as another 400 clubs located in military bases that are spread across the globe. Since its inception, the organization and its predecessors have been tackling juvenile delinquency for more than 100 years. In order to accomplish this objective, BGCA opens the clubs on a daily basis after school and during weekends. These clubs are managed by full-time youth development professionals who are supported by volunteers in the community. Despite of its activities revolving around sports and recreational activities, BGCA provide programs that focus on health and life skills, character and leadership development, computer skills, and arts.

She had felt all that pressure that was recently put upon her fly away, “That’s literally the best word for it; relieved.” Aldina had gotten hired the three months after she had finished college and began working at Garden Court Retirement in Everett. Five years was the amount of time she spent at her very first job after college. “When you realize how good you get at your job and how awesome it is once you’re actually doing it, it’s an amazing feeling. You don’t have to think about it. You’re just a pro at your job,” Aldina

Creative Steps, a Northeast Philadelphia day camp, paid The Valley Club, a predominantly white suburban private club, a $1,950 membership fee in order for its campers to swim in the club pool each Monday afternoon. After the camp’s first visit, the club refunded the camp’s membership without explanation. Several of Creative Steps’ campers reported that they heard several club members making racial remarks and at least one person complain that the children did not belong there. The Valley Club’s president insisted that race did not precipitate the refund of the camp’s fee, but rather that the fee was refunded for safety reasons. The NAACP filed a formal complaint, the Justice Department

Facts of the case: In 1978, James Dale joined Monmouth Council Cub Scout Pack 142. He continued participating in the Scout program, eventually attaining the rank of Eagle Scout in 1988.

New Kids on the Block is a book and a retail customer service organization with more than 30,000 employees. Within the organization, roughly 5,000 employees are serving as the heart of NKOTB, they are the “Customer Service Representatives”. Directors for the customer service center suggested that supervisors are not managing the call center representatives suitably and have failed on meeting company goals; they feel this could be due to lack of skills provided by insufficient training. Before the organization experiences loss of market share and profit, NKOTB would like to hire a consulting group to assist in a training development plan for revision on new and improved customer service skills for the call center. NYCMP Consulting places the needs of NKOTB as our highest priority and we would like to introduce a proposal for an efficient program that can prepare supervisors with the best leading skills to fulfill the vision of the company.

The amount of women working in skilled trades today, alarmingly is the same as when women first entered back in 1978. Despite the advances women have made in the workforce, construction jobs still employ the fewest amount of women. There are women who have broken through the barriers and pushed past the discrimination who are successful. Women like Brenda Berkman, a firefighter, and Lois Ross, a biomedical engineer, prove that there is a way for women to be successful in the field. The key components that contribute to the success these women achieve is the installation of the Affirmative Action Plan, the installation of unions, and support from other women as well as men in the field.

Power tools. Hard hats. Construction sites. Often, we see a lack of women in the world of construction. Although the rules for women in the work place are changing, many women do not always consider making a career out of a job traditionally done by a man. This is a major issue in our society because it can change the mindset of young women. By removing all gender oriented boundaries, countless possibilities are suddenly opened for both children and adults. By choosing to study Interior Design with an emphasis in Construction Management, I have the opportunity to inspire others to pursue what they are passionate about and ignore stereotypes.

With the construction industry projected to grow over the next several years and project management positions in high demand, the makeup of the construction industry is often overlooked. When one looks at a job site, or even thinks about the construction industry, the most common image that comes to mind is men working away in hard hats and neon vests, with women completely irrelevant to this picture. Women are the largest untapped resource of the construction industry, as it is believed that men make up around 98 percent of the industry (Williams, 2015). For women entering into the world of construction, it is hard to penetrate the male stigma that clouds this field, which is why many women often do not pursue careers in construction. The stereotype of male construction workers must be challenged in order to help women thrive in the construction industry. Women are underrepresented in the construction industry due to a number of reasons such as, sexism, harassment, intimidation, and a downfall of opportunities. But why are women subject to such treatment, and how is it really affecting women, and largely, the progression of the construction industry?
