Parent Outreach The effectiveness of parent training in bullying prevention and intervention has not been established (Blank, et al., 2010). However, Rivers, et al. (2009) suggested teaching parents about how witnessing bullying and violence impacts the emotional health of children. Barboza, et al. (2009) found that watching television and other media is a significant factor in bullying behavior. Therefore, parent education about time management and supervision of electronic devises is suggested. Other topics to discuss with parents include; (a) establishing social norms that reward nonviolence and reduce the stigma of backing down within the community, (b)...

...Reflection on Outreach Program Food is the basic necessity of everyone. I love children. That is why I really enjoyed the few hours of having feeding program. I realized how an experience could b ]Ie extraordinary by simply being with the less fortunate and making them happy even for a while. I became inspired to persevere more in life so that I can be a big help for the less fortunate. It’s not my first time joining a Feeding Program. In my days in high school, I always facilitating a Feeding Program held in our barangay. Less fortunate children is really close to my heart because I, myself experience becoming like them, eating once eating non nutritious foods and not having my money. There is a chance that I need to transfer school so I can continue my studies .We are lucky because we can eat more than three times a day, we can study in a good university, we have more money, we can eat whatever we want, we are wearing a good uniform and we can have what we want. I am lucky because all of these, I can have and I experience and I can have, but the children in the feeding program cannot have it because there are not financially capable. Don’t waste your foods or either your money to anything but help others. I am Very lucky because I can do whatever I want to do. I can eat whatever I want to eat. Even you, you’re lucky. So we must take care these blessing and share to others. Sharing to others is the most special things I can do or we can do and feeling of we or I become...

...Ang Kabayo at ng Kalabaw (Kathang-Isip) Isang magsasaka ang nais manirahan sa ibang bayan kaya isang araw ay inipon niya ang kanyang mga gamit at inilulan sa kanyang alagang kabayo at kalabaw. Maaga pa ay sinimulan na nila ang mahabang paglalakbay. Makaraan ang ilang oras ay nakaramdam ng matinding pagod at pang- hihina ang kalabaw dahil sa bigat ng kanyang pasang gamit. "Kaibigang kabayo, di hamak na mas mabigat ang pasan kong gamit keysa sa iyo. Maaari bang tulungan mo ako at pasanin mo yung iba?" pakiusap ng kalabaw. "Aba, yan ang ipinataw sa iyong balikat ng ating amo kaya pagtiisan mo," anang kabayo na lalo pang binilisan ang paglalakad. "Parang awa mo na tulungan mo ako. Di ko na kakayanin ang bigat ng dala ko. Nanghihina ako. Alam mo namang kailangan kong magpalamig sa ilog kapag ganito katindi ang init ng araw dahil madaling mag-init ang katawan ko," pakiusap pa rin ng kalabaw. "Bahala ka sa buhay mo," naiinis na sagot ng kabayo. Makaraan pa ang isang oras at lalung tumindi ang init ng araw. Hindi nagtagal at ang kalabaw ay iginupo ng bigat ng kanyang dala at siya ay pumanaw. Nang makita ng magsasaka ang nagyari ay kinuha niya ang lahat ng gamit na pasan ng kalabaw at inilipat sa kabayo na bahagya namang makalakad dahil sa naging napakabigat ng kanyang mga dalahin. "Kung tinulungan ko sana si kasamang kalabaw ay hindi naging ganito kabigat ang pasan ko ngayon," may pagsisising bulong ng kabayo sa kanyang...

...“The hardest thing for a homeless person is sleep and a conversation,” said Pastor Garrett with Safehouse Outreach. On Lovett’s Service Initiative for Ninth Graders (SING), advisory groups went out to various social service organizations. At these organizations, students completed diverse community service projects to help the Greater Atlanta community. My advisory group went to three places: United Way, Safehouse Outreach, and World Relief. The service at each organization was different, but overall my view on homelessness has changed. During my SING experience, I learned about the issue of homelessness when conversing with Pastor Garrett who works for Safehouse Outreach. Garrett knows first hand what it is like to be living on the streets. Garrett served our country in Iraq and Afghanistan. Not only did he leave the military with an honorable discharge, but he also left with no compassion what so ever. Garrett, still compassionless, felt compelled to work with a church in his hometown in South Carolina. He was sent to a...

We have teens that are having babies with no place to go. There are teens that are on drugs and would like to get away from that lifestyle. There are teens that have runaway to escape an abusive situation and are now living on the streets. The goal of this project is to find a facility that these teens can go to, in order to get off of the streets. Get counseling and a chance to make a better life for themselves. With finding this shelter it is my thought that the City of Dayton can have less crime because these teens are off the street and don’t have to do bad things to get money and hopefully make room in the jails for serious offenders not teens trying to support themselves. Goals that address the mission * The major focus of this teen outreach project is to concentrate on the mission to pave a way for our misguided youth. * Provide an environment of learning and education that benefits our...

...GTP Assignment 2 The place for kiruv(outreach) in the classroom Manchester 15th February 2013 2428 Words Introduction “Take to heart these instructions with which I command you today. Impress them upon your children. Recite them when you stay at home and when you are on the way, when you lie down and when you get up. Bind them as sign on your hand and let them serve as a symbol on your forehead; inscribe them on the doorposts of your house and your gates.” (Deut 6:6-9) The Shemah is not the most authoritative text in Judaism by mere coincidence, it contains the corner stone of our faith which is the transmission of the wisdom and knowledge received at Mount Sinai. In the introduction to his book Rabbi Shlomo Wolbe writes on the necessity of adequate educational methods when transmitting the Torah to ensure its appreciation and its affect on the continuity of the Jewish people. In this essay I aim to analyse the world of Jewish education; its history, challenges and efficiency, I also seek to evaluate the dangers of using the classroom as a laboratory for kiruv experiments and its consequences in the lives of the students exposed to such professionals. Education for Life Brief history The Talmud attributes formal Jewish schooling to the first century sage Yehoshua ben Gamla, prior to this, parents taught their children informally. The methodology used according to Judah ben Tema was: …“at five years the child is ready for studying the Bible...

...Outreach Programs and Their Effectiveness in Lowering Crime Outreach programs are amongst one of the solutions that communities turn to when they begin to see elevated crime rates. The real question, however, is: Are these programs effective? I strongly believe that community outreach programs may be our one valid solution to lowering crime rates in a country that is seeing some of the highest crime rates that we have ever seen. I have found two scholarly articles along with two newspaper articles that I have summarized below that support my theory that outreach programs can be a very effective solution to rising crime rates. My research has provided me with data that backs up the notion that these programs do work, and as long as we continue to use these programs properly, our fight against crime has a promising outlook. Aos, Steve, Marna Miller, and Elizabeth Drake. "Evidence-Based Public Policy Options To Reduce Future Prison Construction, Criminal Justice Costs, And Crime Rates." Federal Sentencing Reporter 19.4 (2007): 275-290. Academic Search Premier. Web. 2 Oct. 2012. This report, which was conducted by the Washington State Institute for Public Policy, highlights some evidence-based options in which crime rates can be reduced while reducing tax rates for state and local taxpayers, and certain outreach programs happen to be one of those options. A rigorous evaluation of 571 individual programs was conducted, and while not all outreach programs are effective, a...

...Effects of “One Giant Step to Humankind” Outreach Project in the Level of Social Consciousness Of the Grade VI Students Is presented to Dr. Nicasio A. Manatan As partial fulfillment to the requirements of Philosophy of Education in Master of Education in Child Study Philippine Normal University By Cheryll S. Leus March 2012 Introduction One of the principles in learning is that “students learn by doing.” Once they are interested in something, they are focused and can easily absorb everything. According to Birkenholz, learning is often defined as a change in behavior. Learning occurs when people take new found information and incorporate it into their life (www.umsl.edu). In this light that the teacher in Social Studies VI asked the students to conceptualize and put into action a project that can contribute in eradicating poverty in the Philippines. The teacher believes that once a person knows something about the problem, he/she has responsibility to help solve it. Engaging the pupils in solving it will eventually develop a socially oriented individual who is critically aware to what is happening in his/her surrounding. And will soon be an effective agent of change in our society. Not everything is learned within the four walls of the classroom. Students may learn things necessary to life but not everything about life. It is important to expose them to the real world outside the school...

...Access Outreach and Engagement in Homeless Services: A Review of the Literature Jeffrey Olivet*,1, Ellen Bassuk1,2,3, Emily Elstad1, Rachael Kenney1 and Lauren Jassil1 1 2 3 Centre for Social Innovation, 215 Spadina Avenue, Suite 120 Toronto, Ontario M5T 2C7, Canada The National Center on Family Homelessness, 181 Wells Avenue, Newton, MA 02459, USA Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, USA Abstract: Outreach and engagement are regarded by many who work in homeless programs as essential services. Outreach on the streets and in shelters is often the first point of contact for people who are not served by traditional sitebased services and is often the first step in engaging homeless people in services. While outreach and engagement are critical components of the response to homelessness, consensus is lacking about the nature and effectiveness of these services. The purpose of this paper is to examine what is known about outreach and engagement for people experiencing homelessness. The authors review quantitative studies that examine outcomes and augment this understanding with information from qualitative studies and non-research literature. The latter provides information about the goals of outreach, assumptions and values, staffing issues, and consumer involvement. The paper concludes with implications for practice, policy, and research. Keywords: Homeless/homelessness, outreach, engagement, review. INTRODUCTION At a recent discussion among outreach workers...

...recommend implementation plans. * Overview of the Organization and Case Study The Marshall Center is a highly respected German and American partnership based in Garmisch, Germany. It has 175 employees and has recently undergone a transformation. The fiscal and political realities of decreased defense budgets in the United States and Germany have led to a need for consolidation of responsibilities and decrease in the number of employees. The dean of the College of International and Security Studies (the College) was recently tasked with the responsibility of combining resident and outreach programs within the College. Previously, outreach programs existed as a separate division within the Marshall Center and had consisted of three regional teams: Central and Southeast Europe; Eurasia and the Black Sea; and Central Asia. The dean’s challenge was to integrate the regional outreach teams into the College and to build teams that include a faculty member within each regional team. Historically, faculty members had...
