This week, I worked on my second assignment, which is to compare best practices of similar special assessment districts (SADs) across the country. It proved to be a challenge because, as far as I can tell, no residential SADs that pay for security exist! The pattern became me finding an SAD, getting excited, and then […]
I apologize in advance, as I didn’t mean to get this into-my-head so early in the summer, or to be making such long blog posts, but here we go. My second week working with three Downriver Lutheran churches has gotten better – rather, I think I’ve just gotten more used to it. As with any
This week has been very busy for me. I am trying to invite vendors to participate in our annual health fair next month. I can’t remember if I explained what this was or not, but basically a health assessment was done in 2009 just sort of asking and surveying the major health issues in each
Every day passes by really fast around here. I work, come back, go to the gym, sometimes hang out for an hour or two around detroit and then the night is over. It’s not a bad thing but I do feel like two weeks went by very quickly and there’s not as much time as

I had the opportunity to participate in another UM program this Summer and as a result I am started the CBRP program late. I literally flew back, went home for a day and then moved into the dorms the next! Although it was a fast transition I am glad to

Hello all, Unfortunately I had a late start here at InsideOut. My supervisor had a death in the family so was not in the office. The first week was a little rough just because it seemed things at the office were unsettling for my supervisor who was somewhat behind due to her loss. I was

Week two was similar to my week one, but with a few extra twists. I saw even less of my supervisors, but they left me more than enough tasks to complete. I really enjoy the Green Garden’s atmosphere. Here at the office we also discovered that running microwaves, especially Panasonic brands, interrupt internet connections. We
This week has been fairly simple again. For my project I continued to put all my information together and I met with my supervisor to go through what I already have. There wasn’t anything really exciting happening this week. Wednesday I was asked to be featured in an ad GRDC is putting together to showcase
