My visit at the shelter last was very meaningful. I enjoyed talking to Christina and Tina. I just wanted to mention to you that these ladies have great leadership skills. They are the reason my visit was worthwhile coming to the shelter that day. I was very glad I came, as I was able to get an abundance of information I needed for my future needs of this practicum. They were very helpful, and I really appreciated their assistance. They truly showed great leadership skills by helping me from the heart, as I could tell they did whatever they possibly could to help me, even though they had no idea that I was coming there, except the fact that a practicum student will be there. I was really impressed with their efforts to help me as much as they
The strategy of CAMBA’s Park Slope Women MICA Shelter is a long-term plan of sustained growth of customer care in New York City. They are strategic when it comes to meeting the pressing needs of New York City dwellers. To begin with, they have identified that mental illness and drugs and substance abuse renders many city dwellers homeless and desperate. Most of the dwellers are hopeless with nowhere else to turn to and CAMBA’s Park Slope Women Shelter comes in as a source of hope for them. This strategy reflects the correct planning on the side of their leaders. This is evident from the fact that market share should be just adequate to cater for the present needs of the community (Drucker et al., 2008). However, over the last few years they
I wanted to thank you again for allowing me to be a part of the HBCU Pride Summer Institute. The experience was enjoyable and enlightening. Since this experience, I have seriously questioned my career goals and direction. In fact, I really miss our quarterly self-assessments. They really provided a roadmap for growth. I also love working with Gina. She is awesome. I feel inspired, just as I did with Dr. Gamble, to stretch myself and knowledge base. I want to do more.
One thing that stood out to Adrian is not so much some of the stories but as a numbers guy seeing the monthly reports on how many people have been helped or benefited from the shelter. The numbers are staggering you know the need is there another report is they track volunteer’s hours. It shows there is a need and people are interested in helping in their community. He was surprised by these numbers. What is most inspiring to Adrian is the volume of people who want to help this cause.
During a crisis of pet overpopulation, it right to kill animals simply because they are not wanted? Or is it ever right thing to do? The United States is faced with the problem of what should be done with the excess of stray animals. This is a complex thing to solve, but that doesn’t mean killing the animals for space is right. Stray dogs and cats have just as much right to a good home as pets that already have owners. No-Kill shelters are beneficial, they provide a safe, pet-friendly environment that would help solve the problems of pet homelessness and overpopulations, as a result of spay and neuter being provided as well.
If you serve in the military, you know that moving is a regular event that can be stressful. Relocating to a new area doesn’t have to be taxing for you and your family. Here are some helpful Ft. Bliss housing resources for military family families relocating to El Paso.
Thank you for supporting the plan of Lisa and I making the visit this Tuesday the 7th at noon. Mom was very pleased we were able to meet the family’s needs with such short notice.
I don’t know if I would have ever decided to volunteer at a shelter in St Paul if it wasn’t for this assignment; I am very thankful for this
Catonsville emergency food ministries (CEFM), which provides food, and household supplies to the homeless and needy population, is where I did three hours of my service hours. All though this was not my first choice, as I thought I could not learn anything from it, and it would be boring and not engaging. I was wrong; I didn’t know the work and knowledge that went into planning, for the day to day operation of a food bank. The building itself was small, and lack adequate space for storage, and working. The week prior they lost all of their meat supplies due to a freezer malfunction, which left a slight death smell in the building. The volunteers were very nice and helpful in showing me around, and answering question. I was actually surprised that one of the volunteers was 16, and was doing it just to get out of the house.
You are a very straight shooter and I appreciate the fact that you took time out of your day to share in your experience and to talk. Your level of engagement in our conversation was both enlightening and candid. If given the opportunity, I hope that I can use my experience to contribute to your organization.
Since 2013, I have had the privilege of working for the Jacksonville Humane Society (JHS). In my tenure, I have watched one of the largest cities in the United States achieve and sustain a live-release rate of greater than 90%. It’s been awe-inspiring and inspirational to me. Today, I’m hoping to put that inspiration to work and begin carving a new path in my animal welfare career by asking you to consider my application for the Maddie’s Shelter Management Scholarship. Due to financial constraints, I am unable to complete the program without the help of Maddie’s Fund.
Residential electricians are trained professionals dealing with any type of electrical work that a home has. The broad nature of the amount of electrical work inside a modern home is also why mostly all electricians are licensed and were properly trained at the trade. The work typically goes in phases, and starts with the simple rough wiring of the entire house, and will eventually end as a finished product with lights, outlets, and everything else you see that is powered.
The housing assistance programs started back in the Great Depression period in 1937 when Congress passed the U.S. Housing Act that represented the start of federal housing assistance in the United States. The program’s purpose was to provide funds to develop public housing units for low-income tenants that were maintained and managed by the local public housing authorities. (Barrymore, 2008) During this time, the nation’s housing stock had very poor quality in most parts of the country. Housing conditions were insufficient. Poor families had to deal with poor conditions such as the lack of hot water or dilapidation. Luckily, public housing was an improvement for those who had the chance to get it. In 1965, HUD was created by the Congress, Housing
In some universities, the sharing of rooms between female and male is allowed. DSU housing should allow men and women to be roommates. First, there is some women and men that get along better than they would with the same-sex. For example, women tend to have more problems and drama with other women. When two or more women are placed in one house without knowing each other there is going to be misunderstandings. Also, in some situations two siblings, a brother and sister get along really well. Let’s say they have always lived together so being able to room together in college would be perfect for them. Second, some woman like having a male figure around just like a male might like having a female figure around. For instance, having a male figure
I was impressed to see the list of all the donors and very glad to know that those people are saving children from being victims of abuse. This was the first Human Services agency I ever visited and I was impressed of the services they offer to the community. During the interview, Kim Tran presented a PowerPoint of the overall agency and their information and also success stories. It was really amazing to hear some of the success stories of their clients, and knowing the hard times they overcame to have a stable, happy lives
For my vanitas collage I selected a variety of images that spoke to me personally. Instead of doing an old fashion collage with scissors and glue. I decided to used a collage maker online, which really helped me in putting the images together to portray a meaningful meaning behind each image. At first, I struggled a little with selecting the right images to symbolize death, life, time and lust. From what I learned in module 1-2 vanitas are pieces of art that remind people of mortality and that material things are temporary. A common example of a vanitas collage would be images of skulls and rotting food, clocks and decaying flowers. For this specific project I chose six images. An image of a woman showing half of her skull with a cigar in her
