Description Of Agency, Program And Supervisor

The seven programs that administrators can consider adopting can be run in house or by contract with external agencies (Finn, N.P). According to Finn, this program will offer” professional counseling, peer support, or both, address chronic stress, serve family members, conduct academy or in-service training” (N.P). This evidence suggests that offering counseling to officers and their family members is imperative. Implementing a mandatory counseling session as part of officer’s yearly in house training would be a good initiative. This counseling session could take place in conjunction with officer’s yearly renewal of weapons qualification, first-aid training, and

As stated earlier, I realized from early on that one of my main purposes in life was to be an aid and helping hand to others, and as I went through life, I began to notice that I was especially sensitive to the needs of children. I believe that children are one of the most underserved population groups amongst us, as a whole. I understand that there a multitude of organizations that are directed at serving children. However, I do not believe that these organizations reach enough children. There are too many children that have yet to be reached and helped. With this being so, I believe that a program focused on not only

The agency I participated at for my ten hours of service learning this semester was the Plain City food pantry. The food pantry is located on 156 W Main St, Plain City, OH 43064. There are many people that run this agency. A couple names are Phyllis and Jane. I participated March 2nd from 9:30 to 11:30, March 3rd from 9:00 to 12:00, April 4th, from 9:30 to 11:30 and April 6th from 9:00 to 12:00.

The organization I picked was Safe Haven or can also be called the mentoring projects. Save Haven serves teens between ages 13 through 18 male or female. Their objective is to increase academic skills and performance, reduce self-defeating behaviors, increase self esteem, raise graduation rates in the inner city schools or Atlanta, and to improve their relationship between their family, peers, and other adults. It started in 1988 when a small group of citizens were worried about their community. It went from a mentoring project to YES!Atlanta and YES stands for Youth Experiencing Success.

I supported this organization weekly throughout the semester. I volunteered as a receptionist, an advocate for the patient (I would discuss with the patient with each of their options for their possible pregnancy), put together baby shower gifts for the mothers, clean, organize, and witness ultrasounds. It was very impactful to witness the ultrasounds. I had never experienced anything like it before this volunteer job. It was incredible to see a baby

Within the department of Social Services all the roles are in a hierarchy system. At the bottom of the system is where a service user would make first contact with the department. This is where the service user would be assessed to deem whether the potential user is eligible to receive help and to which department would offer the service user the most appropriate help, for instance whether they would benefit from being referred to the mental health team or another relevant department. It is important that the first assessment is carried out thoroughly in order for the service user to get the help they need if they are vulnerable and if there are any safeguarding issues. The structure of a social services department is organised in such a way that there are specialist teams available to deal with various issues that affect service users. If someone has a mental health problem they will be able to receive specialist help from the mental health team, who will liaise with other professionals within the mental health sector such as psychiatrists and community mental health nurses, so that the service user can access all the available resources available and receive a positive outcome to their experience. The children and family’s department will be able to offer specialist help in supporting parents and children to stay together or if needs be intervention and safeguarding. These social workers will have specialist knowledge of how to interact with children and their families to

Due to a lack of orientation to volunteers about specific safety procedures to take with children, I had one of the scariest moments of my life. On that day, I encountered a new mother, which I will call Stella. She had two kids: a one and a half year old toddler and a five-month-old boy. The baby, ‘Miley’, was so loveable and instantly cherished by the volunteers. Another volunteer and I asked Stella if we could take her outside to play with the other children. She said okay, went to get her shoes, and put them on her. It was two volunteers and four kids (from five – ten) outside

My third observation was done on the bluff with Berrien County Health Dept. and Berrien County Breastfeeding coalition. The was called Breastfeeding on the bluff. This was advertised on the radio in the paper and around the hospital. One of the mothers even posted it on Facebook as an event. So it was advertised very well. This is a worldwide way to promote breastfeeding awareness.

This organization has a program that allows people to sponsor families and/or orphans. In as early 2011, there were 100,000 Syrian orphans looking for homes(Orphan). This program essentially helps nurture orphans until they can be reincorporated into society. The organization allows willing participants to sign up and be the caretaker of a child, or sponsor a child by paying a fee of $50 a month (Orphan). The program allows family to connect with the orphans they sponsor. Families are constantly sent updated photos of the orphan they sponsor. They are also encouraged to send letters back and forth with the orphan. Sunrise USA has spent 3 million dollars on their orphan sponsorship program. The sponsorship allows the organization to keep the
