A community housing organization took on an Aboriginal housing program from another organization at the request of local Indigenous groups and the housing department. While the goal was to increase affordable housing options, tensions arose between Indigenous and non-Indigenous staff. Within 3 months, the new Indigenous housing worker position was filled, but cultural training for staff did not adequately prepare them. Disputes between neighbors exacerbated tensions as traditional practices, like moving families to new homes, clashed with goals of self-determination and cultural sensitivity. Recommendations are needed to help the organization constructively serve users and community.

Aging Latinos in Action - ALA
CCCIL is committed to developing the staff and community leadership necessary to ensure that our local aging Latino population can lead the most independent and healthy lives possible. CCCIL’s ALA initiative rests on the premise that a community rooted in a culture of independent living and health requires outreach, education, engagement, action and reflection.
ALA directly addresses CCCIL’s priority areas including 1) Developing an engaged constituency of community leaders with disabilities to act on local issues that will build and maintain a healthy, vibrant and independent community; and 2) Addressing the needs of the rapidly increasing aging population as it naturally increases in needs for disability services These two priorities are intimately interwoven as the cultural needs of specific populations including Latinos and aging adults pose unique opportunities and challenges as our nation re-invents how we look at access to care and health. Further, as disabilities are a natural part of the aging process, CCCIL is uniquely qualified to develop leadership in this area.
With investment from the UU Fund for a Just Society, CCCIL will have the opportunity to focus on the outreach, education and action that will both serve and organize a larger constituency of Monterey County’s aging Latino adults.
With the UU investment, the ALA initiative will continue its 8 month pilot project into a second year and focus on:
Outreach
July - December
Working with our community partners (including Area Agencies on Aging, service providers & churches) to invite aging Latinos to participate in ALA Health Academies
Education September - March
· How community members have made a difference in local health care policy decisions.
· On the core skills of community organizing including house meetings, power analysis, research actions, action and reflection with the support of our local IAF affiliate organization COPA – Communities Organized for Relational Public Action
· On the services provided by CCCIL – each participant will be given the information necessary to schedule an appointment with a CCCIL Advocate to develop an Independent Living plan to help them access benefits.
· In addition to the education pieces in the Health Care Academies, CCCIL may organize 1-2 workshops on specific topics identified as needs by the community that could include accessing home health care.

EDU 6564 Reflective Essay for Thesis I and II Projects A written r.docxSALU18
This document discusses the hybridization of NGOs and businesses in providing renewable energy access in East Africa. It presents a spectrum of hybrid organizational forms that have emerged, from social enterprises that are highly commercial but pursue social missions, to NGOs that undertake some commercial activities or create for-profit spin-offs. Changes in donor funding, neoliberal policies, and government regulations have encouraged more entrepreneurial and hybrid approaches. While expanding access, these new models may face challenges in equitable provision and accountability.
Real World Negotiation Assignment Your task is to go out there (.docxdanas19
Real World Negotiation Assignment
Your task is to go out there (bravely) into the dreaded “real world,” negotiate for something, and then write a paper about it. You can choose or create an opportunity to negotiate something for which you might normally not negotiate or for which you did not intend to negotiate at this point in time. Completed negotiations from the recent or distant past are not eligible.
A wide variety of contexts and potential transactions are fair game, including but not limited to retail consumer encounters, landlord-tenant interactions, personal or family conflict situations, disputes with teachers, fellow students, law enforcement officials, university administrators, etc. A job negotiation is okay if it is going to start and conclude between the beginning of the semester and the due date for this assignment.
The key requirement is that the situation is real with actual costs and outcomes turning on the encounter (although the magnitude of costs and benefits can be relatively small).
Your essay about the experience should, at a minimum, address (also, see rubric chart below): • How you prepared for the negotiation;
• What happened (but don’t let narrative detail crowd out analysis);
•• What the outcome was and whose interests were served;
• Why things turned out as they did – what would you do differently; • Quantify what you gained by negotiating.
***The last paragraph should identify and explain how much value you claimed/created by negotiating as opposed to if you had not negotiated and claimed your BATNA. (This point will be moot if you did not come to a negotiated agreement and did claim your BATNA. That is OKAY and will not reflect poorly on your grade!).
Include in your essay a critique of your own performance in the encounter: What could you have done differently to produce a better outcome? In reading and evaluating these papers, I will emphasize analysis over narrative. Tell me what happened, yes, but probe the reasons why the encounter went as it did using ideas and concepts about the structure and process of negotiation from the course. Think about the type of negotiation you are discussing and how it differs from other situations considered in this course and elsewhere. Don’t just say what tactics were used; say why and analyze their appropriateness. I will also look for evidence that you prepared for your “adversary” deliberately and thoughtfully. You will be graded not on the outcome of the negotiation itself, but on the quality of your analytical insight (using concepts developed in the course) into the process that occurred.
Details:
• The paper should be 4-5 double-spaced pages.
• Paper must be formatted with 1” margins all around and Times New Roman 12-point font. Papers not adhering to this format will lose a letter grade. Papers will be graded based on analyses as well as on grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
• Submit papers via Canvas. You must submit the assignment as an attached file..

· Discussion: Community Social Work
When was the last time you drove through an unfamiliar neighborhood or community? How quickly did you identify that area as a “good” or “bad” part of town? What led you to that assessment? It is easy to label a community or town based on its appearance or reputation alone. Have you ever wondered, as you drove through certain communities, why some areas appear to be safe, clean, and filled with many varied businesses, while others appear run-down and lined with only check cashing centers, fast-food restaurants, and liquor stores? As a macro social worker, you often will see that communities thrive and falter due to the lack of resources available. Additionally, these areas may not grow or prosper because their resources have been untapped. Identifying strengths—be it in your individual clients, groups, families, and communities—is a key social work value. Use of this strengths perspective helps you to identify the potential strengths of a community and how to advocate for its members to obtain the resources and services they need to be successful.
For this Discussion, review this week’s Resources. Reflect on a community with which you are familiar and that is in close proximity to you. Then, consider the population and geographical characteristics of that community, as well as its strengths and challenges. Take pictures of the community that represent the characteristics you identified. Finally, think about how these challenges you identified might be viewed as a strength for that community.
Post by Day 3 a description of the community you selected. Then, explain the strengths and challenges associated with that community based on its characteristics. Finally, explain how you, as a social worker, might help the community view its perceived challenges as a strength.
Be sure to post the pictures you took that represent the characteristics you identified in the community.
Support your posts and responses with specific references to the Resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.

Introduction to Service-Learning and Civic EngagementAs we begin.docxmariuse18nolet
Introduction to Service-Learning and Civic Engagement
As we begin this journey together over the next eight weeks, it is imperative to understand the key concepts incorporated within the course, as well as the overall purpose of taking the course. As President John F. Kennedy has been quoted, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.”
Service-learning versus volunteering: Aren’t they one and the same? The correct answer is “no” as there are differences. Volunteering allows for activities which place the emphasis on the recipient. (Providing meals at the local homeless shelter places the emphasis on the recipient being fed for that particular meal.) Service-learning activities differ from volunteering in the INTENT involved. This intent with service-learning utilizes intellectual capacities which in turn address problems within the community. (There is a growing number of homeless individuals in the community – what activities can be performed to address this problem?)
Following this example, we can see that service learning allows us to become an educated community member and problem-solver through serving and collaboratively reflecting on the meaning and purpose of the activities put into that service. The entire purpose of service-learning is therefore learning to grow in skills and knowledge because these assets are being brought to real-world problems.
As we evaluate these skills, we need to have the understanding of civic capacity. This is knowing how to APPLY our knowledge and skills to the community challenges we are analyzing. This capacity is developed when we are able to look deeper at the connection between academic knowledge and experience.
Putting each of these concepts together, service-learning, therefore impacts our community positively in order to address societal and political challenges, and generate the positive changes necessary for both individuals and within the system we are looking to change.Preview of Your Final Project
Over the next few weeks we will be learning about service learning and investigating a community organization. You will begin to put this information together to evaluate the role of the community organization that you have chosen. You will support your ideas with the literature resources that you have found.
You have three options in how you can present your final project:
As a Paper
Your paper should be creative and interesting, and demonstrate what you have learned. It should be a minimum of 5-7 pages in length and you will use APA style formatting with a title page and reference section. You should use Times New Roman, 12pt. font, double-space your lines, and set your page up with one inch margins (See the APA Template included in the Course Resources folder)
As a Presentation
Like the paper option, your presentation should be creative, interesting, and demonstrate what you have learned throughout the project. Your presentation should be 8 to 10 .

The revolution was initiated by enslaved people in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, which later became Haiti. It resulted in Haiti gaining independence and becoming the first black republic in the world.

THIS WEEK’S WORK IS TWO DISCUSSIONS. Week 6: Social Change and Professional Development
The characteristics of program design and evaluationare intended to provide some level of recommended change or action as a result of the systematic investigation into a program’s effectiveness. Evaluation can provide answers to questions about a program that may be useful in adjusting a program to become more effective. Because evaluation results in insight about the effectiveness of a program for a specific population, evaluation can be used to implement social change or action. Evaluation findings may assist stakeholders (those who hold an interest) or decision makers in go/no-go decisions about specific program modifications or initiate the continuation or demise of the entire program. Today, social policy and public administrative movement are closely associated with social program outcomes and effective evaluations.
This week, you present your design for a program addressing the needs of the homeless population in your community and analyze how your program may effect social change. You also evaluate your potential to impact areas of human services delivery and assess the benefits of participating in professional human services organizations.
Objectives
By the end of this week, you should be able to:
· Analyze how human services program design and evaluation influence social change
· Evaluate personal impact on areas of human services delivery
· Analyze how professional organizations contribute to professional development

The military plays an important role in responding to domestic disasters by providing personnel, equipment, and logistical support. During 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, fighter jets patrolled cities and the National Guard and Coast Guard conducted large-scale rescue operations. While the military is effective at disaster response, there are also debates around federalizing the National Guard, authorizing deadly force, and declaring martial law during relief efforts.

· Discussion: Community Social Work
When was the last time you drove through an unfamiliar neighborhood or community? How quickly did you identify that area as a “good” or “bad” part of town? What led you to that assessment? It is easy to label a community or town based on its appearance or reputation alone. Have you ever wondered, as you drove through certain communities, why some areas appear to be safe, clean, and filled with many varied businesses, while others appear run-down and lined with only check cashing centers, fast-food restaurants, and liquor stores? As a macro social worker, you often will see that communities thrive and falter due to the lack of resources available. Additionally, these areas may not grow or prosper because their resources have been untapped. Identifying strengths—be it in your individual clients, groups, families, and communities—is a key social work value. Use of this strengths perspective helps you to identify the potential strengths of a community and how to advocate for its members to obtain the resources and services they need to be successful.
For this Discussion, review this week’s Resources. Reflect on a community with which you are familiar and that is in close proximity to you. Then, consider the population and geographical characteristics of that community, as well as its strengths and challenges. Take pictures of the community that represent the characteristics you identified. Finally, think about how these challenges you identified might be viewed as a strength for that community.
Post by Day 3 a description of the community you selected. Then, explain the strengths and challenges associated with that community based on its characteristics. Finally, explain how you, as a social worker, might help the community view its perceived challenges as a strength.
Be sure to post the pictures you took that represent the characteristics you identified in the community.
Support your posts and responses with specific references to the Resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.

Introduction to Service-Learning and Civic EngagementAs we begin.docxmariuse18nolet
Introduction to Service-Learning and Civic Engagement
As we begin this journey together over the next eight weeks, it is imperative to understand the key concepts incorporated within the course, as well as the overall purpose of taking the course. As President John F. Kennedy has been quoted, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.”
Service-learning versus volunteering: Aren’t they one and the same? The correct answer is “no” as there are differences. Volunteering allows for activities which place the emphasis on the recipient. (Providing meals at the local homeless shelter places the emphasis on the recipient being fed for that particular meal.) Service-learning activities differ from volunteering in the INTENT involved. This intent with service-learning utilizes intellectual capacities which in turn address problems within the community. (There is a growing number of homeless individuals in the community – what activities can be performed to address this problem?)
Following this example, we can see that service learning allows us to become an educated community member and problem-solver through serving and collaboratively reflecting on the meaning and purpose of the activities put into that service. The entire purpose of service-learning is therefore learning to grow in skills and knowledge because these assets are being brought to real-world problems.
As we evaluate these skills, we need to have the understanding of civic capacity. This is knowing how to APPLY our knowledge and skills to the community challenges we are analyzing. This capacity is developed when we are able to look deeper at the connection between academic knowledge and experience.
Putting each of these concepts together, service-learning, therefore impacts our community positively in order to address societal and political challenges, and generate the positive changes necessary for both individuals and within the system we are looking to change.Preview of Your Final Project
Over the next few weeks we will be learning about service learning and investigating a community organization. You will begin to put this information together to evaluate the role of the community organization that you have chosen. You will support your ideas with the literature resources that you have found.
You have three options in how you can present your final project:
As a Paper
Your paper should be creative and interesting, and demonstrate what you have learned. It should be a minimum of 5-7 pages in length and you will use APA style formatting with a title page and reference section. You should use Times New Roman, 12pt. font, double-space your lines, and set your page up with one inch margins (See the APA Template included in the Course Resources folder)
As a Presentation
Like the paper option, your presentation should be creative, interesting, and demonstrate what you have learned throughout the project. Your presentation should be 8 to 10 .

THIS WEEK’S WORK IS TWO DISCUSSIONS. Week 6: Social Change and Professional Development
The characteristics of program design and evaluationare intended to provide some level of recommended change or action as a result of the systematic investigation into a program’s effectiveness. Evaluation can provide answers to questions about a program that may be useful in adjusting a program to become more effective. Because evaluation results in insight about the effectiveness of a program for a specific population, evaluation can be used to implement social change or action. Evaluation findings may assist stakeholders (those who hold an interest) or decision makers in go/no-go decisions about specific program modifications or initiate the continuation or demise of the entire program. Today, social policy and public administrative movement are closely associated with social program outcomes and effective evaluations.
This week, you present your design for a program addressing the needs of the homeless population in your community and analyze how your program may effect social change. You also evaluate your potential to impact areas of human services delivery and assess the benefits of participating in professional human services organizations.
Objectives
By the end of this week, you should be able to:
· Analyze how human services program design and evaluation influence social change
· Evaluate personal impact on areas of human services delivery
· Analyze how professional organizations contribute to professional development

Weaning from mechanical ventilation should be considered when the disease prompting intubation has improved and daily screening for weaning potential is performed. Studies show most intubated patients should have scheduled spontaneous breathing trials following daily sedation breaks. For SBT, the patient must be alert, able to follow commands and breathe spontaneously, with stable oxygenation and hemodynamics before extubation. Daily SBT involves at least 30-120 minutes of breathing without ventilator support using an open breathing circuit or minimal pressure support. A successful SBT is when the patient can breathe without distress and their vital signs remain stable.

Study – Community Based Housing Organisation A Place called Home The story begins
three years ago. I am the chairperson, on a small community-housing organisation. It has
five staff, a voluntary management committee of nine and a capacity to house around eighty
households. There have been three approaches from different groups in the past two days
about the same issue. The first approach is from an Aboriginal housing program that has
3. run into great difficulties managing its housing program. It is no longer interested in
managing the program and asks will we take it on. The second from an Indigenous Elder of a
different local group, asking that the organisation agree to take the program on, because
housing needs of Indigenous people in this locality are so great. The third is from the
Queensland Department of Housing to ask if the organisation would take the program on, at
least in the short term, until it can be put to tender. Workers and committee of the
community-housing organisation were keen to respond affirmatively. Correspondence
occurred with local Indigenous people, the relinquishing organisation and the Department
of Housing, to explore the possibilities and options and the decision was made, with
everyone’ s agreement, to take the program on in the short term. The workers then set out
to get the program functioning well. There was never any explicit criticism, but in an
environment where Indigenous people are assumed to be incompetent in managing
organisations, the power of this action of taking on, and “ fixing up” the program sat heavily
and was part of the ‘ undiscussable’ . The program was put to tender (a government
obligation under competition policy). We took guidance from the local Elder, and consulted
with local and regional Indigenous Organisations about whether we could support them to
tender for it or whether we should tender for it. The various Aboriginal groups listened to
our proposal, and said politely they would discuss it among themselves and get back to us.
Finally, the response came: “ We think you should tender, but employ a Murri worker and
set up a subcommittee so local people can work towards running it themselves” . The
tender was successful, the Indigenous sub-committee was established, the position
advertised. The sub-committee undertook the selection process and recommended to the
management committee the employment of a local Aboriginal person as the housing
worker. Within 3 months the new worker was in the job. Keen to make the new venture
work, the Management Committee and workers within the organisation undertook cross
cultural training with two different trainers – 3 afternoons with each trainer over a 12
week period. Support for this new development was unanimous within staff and
management committee. We met, we talked, we made agreements, but …much was unsaid.
We were agreed that, in line with social justice, we wanted greater access for homeless
people to affordable housing which was appropriate to their needs. There were four parties
to the early discussions, the Indigenous group who were relinquishing the program, the
Indigenous group in the local area who wanted to be sure the program stayed in the area,
the Housing Department and the local housing organisation. Disrupting Housing Practices
Only three weeks into the job, tensions were mounting between non-Indigenous and
Indigenous workers. All new workers are subject to scrutiny, but whether non-Indigenous
people scrutinise Indigenous people more, or whether Indigenous people are extra sensitive
to all white surveillance, we faced a predictable difficulty which we should have foreseen
and had not adequately allowed for. 11 | P a g e SWK3110 Organisational Contexts Unit Plan
off-campus 2016 The first crisis was over a neighbourhood dispute. Organisational practice
(unbeknown to committee members) had been to move Aboriginal families onto another
house when neighbours complained. The Aboriginal housing program worker baulked at
this. “ No” , he said, Aboriginal people had always been moved on, until there was nowhere
but the edges of towns for them to be. The co-ordinator called me. The Indigenous worker
4. called me. We met, they talked the issues through. We tried to raise the issue of different
assumptions and expectations, and of how to make them more explicit. They determined
they would communicate more and develop a better understanding of each other’ s
approach. This was the agreement. We agreed to include the Management Committee and
other workers in discussion. The Management Committee listened and confirmed the
Indigenous worker was to have the opportunity to explore how best to manage
neighbourhood disputes in relation to Indigenous tenants. Some Management Committee
members offered instrumental as well as moral support. The committee invited all workers
to suggest some ways to relieve any tensions this might cause. The Indigenous worker built
community supports around the Indigenous family who were subject to the complaint. He
worked with the distressed tenant to establish whatever support the tenant found
acceptable -the Indigenous health worker, the Indigenous medical centre, school liaison
officers, police liaison officers. The neighbours took a petition via the local Member of
Parliament, to the Minister. They wanted the family evicted. The local member and the
Minister were keen to have local conflict resolved quickly. A housing department
representative and a Management Committee member visited the neighbours to see if they
could be appealed to, to hold off. They said they had not spent $250,000 on a house just to
have to face such unacceptable behaviour from neighbours. One of them was a member of
the local Labor Party with good connections. This put pressure on some local leaders who
initially wanted to be seen as supporting all parties. The local Labor party member spoke
out in support of the homeowners and spoke patronisingly to the organisation.
Nevertheless, as the organisation liaised with neighbours, they began to feel heard and
slowed down their complaints. Subsequent events led the local Member of Parliament to
withdraw his support from the organisation altogether. In the office things did not slow
down, tension was high. The first agreement around communicating more openly was
already broken. The way things are done in the organisation, and indeed its operating
paradigm was being challenged. The non-Indigenous workers applied a line of tension to
pull the Management Committee back into line. Variation from policy, they said, left them
uncertain how they should deal with neighbourhood complaints. They insisted on one
policy for all. They complained such approaches took the Indigenous worker out of the
office too much, so they had to do his work. Unprecedented numbers of neighbourhood
complaints came to the office and the Indigenous worker began to suspect that he was the
victim of a plot in which his colleagues clandestinely stirred up landlords and neighbours to
put the pressure on. Management Committee tried to mediate and put policies and
procedures in place, but became divided and anxious. The Indigenous worker was caught.
He had to work to his community in ways, which maintained their support. They had certain
expectations. He knew his task from their point of view was as much community
development as service delivery. For the local community this service was an anchoring
point in a longer-term process of securing a better life for Indigenous people in the local
community. He was testing the boundaries of his position. Whilst some of the detail had
been planned for, or worked out theoretically, he wanted to know, in practice, what the
boundaries of his authority were, what scope he had to work with his sub-committee to
shape a service to suit the community, and how readily he could access the resources he
5. needed. This very same moment was the time, from a service delivery perspective, when the
new worker was to be trained in the existing operating procedures (explicit) and inducted
into the cultural norms 12 | P a g e SWK3110 Organisational Contexts Unit Plan off-campus
2016 (implicit) of the organisation. Two discourses, service delivery and community
development, each with their own trajectory collided. Both were legitimate, and even
necessary, but their collision contributed to what was becoming a significant struggle. The
worker knew he needed orientation, and even training, for he had little housing experience.
Nevertheless within a few days the worker appointed as the trainer exclaimed in frustration
“ he’ s untrainable!” Access became a further point of tension. The office, located in an
ordinary house, had no sign outside and the front screen door was kept locked. People had
to knock and were then greeted in reception. These arrangements may have been
determined by staff and may perhaps have been negotiated with a previous Management
Committee. The present Management Committee had inherited, rather than been part of,
such arrangements, and yet had not previously questioned them. The Indigenous worker
requested a sign be displayed for his program and that the door be unlocked to make the
place more welcoming. This was vigorously resisted by the non-Indigenous workers, and
when management committee, unable to persuade or convince, made a decision to have the
door unlocked one day a week, the workers approached the union about unsafe working
conditions, and gained their support. For some of the committee members unfamiliar with
the Management Committee role, the involvement of the Union was intimidating and
further raised anxiety levels. Struggling with my own role in providing leadership, which
would hold open a space and enable the various parties to this conflict to make the
transitions they needed to make, I asked the workers what would help. They said they
thought the Management Committee members had become biased and that facilitated
conflict resolution processes would help. Rather than lift the tension, this made the
environment more hostile between all workers. Some complained the performance of the
Indigenous worker was the issue. He felt he was not being given a chance. Within these
facilitated sessions, all workers spoke, and were heard. Management Committee still took
the position that the Indigenous worker was within the funding guidelines and the
constitution and policies of the organisation. They acknowledged that the two different
approaches created tensions for the workers and asked the workers to recommend a way
forward. The first action, negotiated between the committee and workers was to make the
Indigenous worker accountable directly to the Management Committee. The senior worker
contributed to this decision, but maybe later felt it reduced her power. The Indigenous
worker said he felt he was being punished by the other workers for every bit of support the
Management Committee gave him. The other workers said they felt the Management
Committee supported him more than them. Review of policies and procedures was
undertaken to address structurally any further points of conflict and uncertainty.
Discussions about structure however did not run smoothly. Trying to build shared
understandings and minimise defensiveness was interspersed with angry outbursts,
disruption of meetings, resistance, and agitation. The tension in workers, as procedures
(with their advice and involvement) were examined and affirmed or replaced, became too
great, provoked too much anxiety and the process became fraught with angry resistance.
6. The workplace was clearly uncomfortable for everyone. The non-Indigenous workers were
drawing their own ethical boundaries. They wanted a reaffirmation of a status quo, which
would affirm that operating model with which they had confidence. If this meant excluding
the Indigenous worker, so be it. Several Management Committee members were of like
mind. Other Management Committee members tenaciously held open the possibility of
working things through. Yet this was read as polarising against the movement for closure.
The Indigenous sub-committee asked that the Indigenous program run from different
premises. It was clear to them that the tensions within the existing office were inhibiting the
work and de-authorising the worker. The non-Indigenous workers also saw this as a
solution. The Indigenous worker was keen to move, and so, the committee agreed to this, at
least for the interim.
