Community Charge

I have enjoyed taking this class this semester. Even though I hit a few hiccups along the way I pushed through. I think it will help in my future endeavor in community development.

I have shared many of my learning experiences from this class with family and friends and have passed on a lot of knowledge. I honestly

play a role in it, I think about community service. Since I have been at Bethany I have been in a couple of different organizations and community service is always a major focus. Right now, I am the active Pledge Master for the fraternity, Gamma Kappa Alpha. By being in this leadership position I am obligated to help out the community and try to make the people in my organization the best that they can be.

feel that the youth group is lacking in the area of service. Not only is community service important to our church, I also believe it is crucial to have our youth involved in community outreach to promote emotional and spiritual growth.

This paper will address the background issues of the increased rate of suicide within aboriginal communities.
