Why is being in a community so important? Being in a community is so important because everyone needs a shoulder to lean on. Everyone needs a person they can talk about their problems to. In the story The Outsiders ,written by S.E Hinton, tells the story of a boy named Ponyboy who’s parents died in a car accident, who is having trouble fitting into the gang he is in.
I volunteered at Mother Hubbard's Cupboard, an emergency food pantry, in Wilmington, North Carolina from 2012-2016. Throughout my four years of service, I learned how to handle almost all of the jobs available to volunteers, including packing packages for families with a stove or no-stove individuals, teaching new volunteers about the Cupboard and the jobs available, checking patrons in at the front desk, preparing hygiene supply packages for patrons, and working at various tables in the front to distribute various additional food to patrons. I am interested in serving on the Feed the Pack Leadership Team because I want to expand the overall impact and efficiency of Feed the Pack. I am committed to service and I want to lead a life of serving others, and I believe that working on the FTP Leadership team will allow me to continue to maximize my service efforts in the community and beyond.
Finally, I help everyone I can and I honor the country. I show these attributes by doing community work, helping out my family and developing my own opinions on political
From an early age I have always had an interest in the legal system, as a child of divorcees the legal system has always had an impact on my life. I have always dreamed about being a family lawyer and have hoped that through hard work and dedication I could make my dream a reality; enter law school, successfully complete the bar exam and utilize my knowledge of the law to help those who may otherwise be left in the cold by the legal system. As I have grown older I have a new understanding of the realities of just how difficult it will be to make my dreams a reality. When writing this application, I had difficulty figuring out what I can say that will set me apart from other candidates. I almost feel as though everything that I will say has been said before and there are most likely some situations that sound more sympathetic than my own.
Before choosing criminal justice as my major, I wanted to be an art major. The dream was to work as a comic book artist, but I soon realized that it was virtually impossible for me to achieve that dream. Eventually, I became interested in the criminal justice system and all of the aspects that exist in the system, specifically the court aspect. When I told my family that I wanted to be a criminal justice major, my father told me outright that I could not be a police officer or work in corrections, so law school was the only option, but I morphed that expectation into my own with the desire to become a civil rights attorney. Moreover, I have always been interested in politics and political movements that involved civil rights and human rights.
A large motivation I have for myself is enrolling in coursework that not only benefits my personal growth, but coursework that will also benefit my community--more specifically, the community I have had the pleasure of serving, as a worker of the Human Services Department. Specific coursework that has led me to uncover the motivation and become become more passionate in strengthening my community have been: Emotional Intelligence, Compassion Fatigue, Team Dynamics, Cross-Cultural Awareness, Learning Disability Sensitivity, Understanding and Handling Change, Performance Management, Teamwork Skills for Supervisors, Organization and Prioritization Tactics, Critical Thinking, Professional Conduct and Etiquette, Professional Writing and Providing
Research at the community level varies with a goal of interacting with them at a person level which can result in a large amount of information only they can provide. One method of doing research at the community level is what Kevin Matteson did in New York which is to look at what the local community is doing and see what the results are. The benefits is that a person can build a relation with the community and they may be able to help the community implement methods that will make their goals easier to achieve. A weakness is trying to get that access because they have to make sure the person doing the research will not exploit them.
I have a heart for service and a strong desire to make a difference in people’s lives. Becoming a nurse I will be able to fulfill my passion of making a positive impact on individual lives on a daily basis. I will be able to fulfill my nurturing and caring desires of helping others. I’m very passionate and fascinated with the medical field in all aspects. I strive for excellence, integrity and love interacting with all diversity of people.
