My Community Interventions!

This class has come such a long way and it's so exciting to see everything falling together. As much as I dislike giving myself praise or claiming I did a lot of tasks, I'll write up a few things that were "my job" for this community interventions class! I really do dislike giving myself credit for anything I've done because I believe this is truly a group effort and no one person's contribution is more important than other. It's the face that we all work together and try to make this event happen that's important!


I really have enjoyed being a part of the Leadership Team for our class. Not only do I get to help make these exciting decisions but I get to learn so much from my other classmates. The people on the leadership team are intelligent and teaching me so much about community interventions and social work itself.
Broken down I am on team Publicity! Which is exciting in it's own ways because we get to spread the word about!
One of my main jobs on publicity was Student Announcements. I had to research student announcements and figure out how we would get the word of our events out to the whole community. Once I had that issue solved, I put out a few reminder announcements for the fund raising class about their bake sale and save the date for the stop the violence events!
My next task I have been working on is researching signs for the clothesline project as well as the other events. The signs will stick in the ground around campus helping to say "clothesline project -->" etc. This task is still in the works because of it's communication with fund raising and our budget but we shall see!
Contributing time and ideas is one of the hardest tasks and I think that's the one everyone can say they've accomplished the most and will continue to accomplish until these successful events happen! Keep that in mind :)
