    Trauma DSM-V Categories

    One of my best friends fits the Trauma DSM-V category. In high school she always wore nice clothes, had her hair done, wore make-up, all the typical things most girl’s in high school do. The year directly following high school things changed abruptly. She began dying her hair strange colors, not wearing any make-up at all, and not really caring about her clothes. To be honest she was kind of a “free bird” anyways so I did not think anything of it at the time. This went on for about a year and when we would hangout she did not act any different. It turns out she was undergoing a very traumatic and chronic stress situation at home she was not telling anyone about. Unfortunately, instead of talking about it to myself or our other friends she decided…

    Food Stamps Research Paper

    Americans’ growing dependency on Food Stamps, written the week of 3/02/12, asks the question “are we feeding the hungry, breeding dependency, or both?” Food Stamps are form of aid to help people with low income provided by the government. Food stamps were changed in 2004 in favor of plastic debit cards that are refilled electronically each month. In 2008 the government renamed the program Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP. This program has become a political turning point because GOP Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich said in January that “more people have been put on food stamps by Barack Obama than any other president in American history.

    In The Fixer, the comic is set in 2001, where Sacco’s avatar as the war reporter returned to postwar Sarajevo and an economically devastated Bosnia. The postwar scenes indicate the tentative relationship between Neven and Sacco’s avatar, by utilizing the graphic and narration to allow the audience to analyze the ideology and subjectivity of the characters.

    Human Service Workers

    As a social service assistant and life skill counselor I plan to provide direct and indirect client services. While a client works towards self sufficiency, they may need assistance including food stamps, Medicaid, welfare and other human service programs. My clients are responsible for bringing my payroll records, tax returns, social security cards for themselves and family members, rent receipts, utility bills and additional records that may apply. I use this information to determine their eligibility for programs that are available to them and their family members. For single parents, I submit their income and expenses to see if they qualify for child care assistance so that they can work and return to school. I am also able to determine eligibility for reduced rent and food stamps. Many times single parents may need additional training or education to obtain better employment. Returning to school requires a lot of time and commitment and many single parents are playing dual roles so I work hard to get them temporary assistance so that their basic needs of food, rent and child care is met so that they can commit the necessary time to improve their quality of life and eventually…
