Does Clean Water Make You Dirty
Bennett examines whether access to clean water reduces incentives for sanitation in Cebu, Philippines. Using panel data from 1983-2005, he finds:
1) A negative correlation between piped water access and sanitation levels, suggesting water and sanitation may be substitutes as clean water allows people to endure dirtier environments.
2) Increased diarrhea is associated with community access to piped water, consistent with reduced sanitation efforts. However, household access is linked to less diarrhea.
3) Instrumental variable models exploiting topological characteristics correlated with water access but not sanitation still find evidence that piped water reduces sanitation and increases diarrhea, indicating a causal relationship.
4) A robustness check

Human Service Professional Interview Paper
Human service agencies are becoming one of the most helpful organizations in the world. From the different roles played by human service agencies, it is evident that community service agencies play crucial roles in the community's well-being. Some of the critical roles played by human service agencies include providing shelter to the members of the community, providing food, providing health assistance, providing mental and physical aid to the members of society among other roles (LeBlanc et al., 2018). in most parts of the world, human service agencies have significantly been upheld and also appreciated for the excellent work the play in the society. In the research that I conducted about human service agencies, I had a lot of questions that were left unanswered, so I proposed to look for a professional working in a human service agency so that I could obtain as much information as I needed. I then chose one official from Human Resource Administration in New York City, one of the well-known human service agencies in New York. To obtain all the information I needed, I had to carry out an interview whereby I was an interviewer. Before I carried out the interview, I had to do some research about the historical perception of human resource administration.
Human resource administration in New York City is the most incredible human service community, also known as the social service department. It was founded in 1966 in the United States, New York City. Human resource administration was mainly found to fight poverty that had entangled many communities in New York. Its leading role in the community has been providing food assistance and emergency rental assistance to the people in need, with a long period in service.

With a high number of people serving or instead aiding annually approximated to three million, Human Resource Administration has been ranked among one of the greatest human service agencies worldwide (Preston, 2020). Its annual budget being $9.6 billion, Human Resource Administration has been able to serve its clients with a lot of satisfaction fully. Its greatness has been proved by its high number of employees, with 14000 employees playing essential roles in providing human service. Human Resource Administration has also been echoed by its sustainability with 12 main public assistance programs (Kaur & Sussman 2019). These programs have been critical in ensuring efficiency and convenience from the way the organization works.
In the research, I found some questions worthy of obtaining the answers from a primary source. This made me contact one of the employees in Human Resource Administration for an interview. The interview t.

From Seven-Figure Loss to Industry Leader: This Century-Old NPO Prioritized i...
The key to employee-driven impact is an employee-first culture – the mantra is echoed by the likes of Richard Branson and Kip Tindell but is often (falsely) regarded as a significant financial burden or implemented as a list of superficial fringe benefits. A truly integrated employee-first philosophy promises significant ROI in the form of decreased turnover, increased engagement and productivity, improved mission outcomes – and in the case of Mental Health America, a seven-figure turnaround and industry-leading impact.
This presentation highlights the myriad benefits of assimilating an employee-first approach into the heart of an organization. How did MHA’s leadership and culture shift transform the “impact-ability" of its employees and enable it to lead its field? How does great culture drive great ideas?

Cons: No Money Sitting at a desk Lots of paperwork and computer input Stressful Not rewarding Bureaucracy Zero chance of “Hero” status Pros: Helping others Helping my community Helps pay off school loans Beginning steps to having the knowledge about what needs to change!

Next, go back to school to be able to get a job that will give me the opportunity to make a greater change. Seriously. Other jobs will most definitely offer more money, but I do not believe that many will come close to the satisfaction of helping the troubled in need in the community in which I live.
Editor's Notes
- The field of Human Services is broadly defined, uniquely approaching the objective of meeting human needs through an interdisciplinary knowledge base, focusing on prevention as well as remediation of problems, and maintaining a commitment to improving the overall quality of life of service populations. The Human Services profession is one which promotes improved service delivery systems by addressing not only the quality of direct services, but also by seeking to improve accessibility, accountability, and coordination among professionals and agencies in service delivery.
- There are plenty of jobs out there at the lower end of the spectrum, personal care, and respite workers, locally the NKHS is always looking for more help whether as a personal care attendant during the day hours or filling a position at one of the many area group homes that require 24/7 care. The higher up the food chain one goes the less available the jobs are, and the higher education needed.
- Advanced degree means a master! Doing the math working 50 weeks of the year full time, they are paying aprox. $11/hr. Well, the thought of being a guidance gounceller bores me so doing the same calculations on being a mental health counselor it works out to be aprox $20/hr, probably salary, and that is not with any of the other benefits that would go along with being a state worker.
- Not rewarding as in your boss won’t be saying “you the man” and you definitely won’t be on the front page of the “times” for person of the year award. Looking at the pro’s, they also could not seem that great. BUT when viewed in what you want to get out of life and how you want to live it, I think are pretty f*#k!^g amazing.
