Minor compromises with budgeting and program dynamics are included as a mere suggestion. Please note that included will be a answers to questions addressed from the stand point of the different stakeholder’s that directly affect The St. Joseph Family Homeless Shelter.

In any human services program, one of the most influential stakeholders happens to be the funding institution. The human services program must consider the needs as well as the expectations of many stakeholders which include and are not limited to the program staff and administrators, the community the program serves and the funding institution. The St Joseph Family Homeless Shelter has recently decided to change their targeted population and services being offered. Making a decision to change services provided and who is eligible takes plenty of commitment and a lot of time and effort from all parties involved.
The New Jersey Department of Community Affairs is currently offering funding programs to programs such as The St. Joseph Family Homeless Shelter as well as any non-profit agency. As a potential stakeholder of The St. Joseph Family Homeless Shelter there are many accommodation’s that should be made in order to satisfy the funder’s needs and expectations. “The New Jersey

Two forces emerged that decade. The first was the conversion of the vacuum tube assemblies that powered gigantic mainframe computers into integrated circuit boards that enabled smaller mini-computers and, a decade later, the desktop microcomputers that are ubiquitous today. The second was the development by Motorola of the “luggable” cellular telephone prototype, to be launched commercially in 1973.…

    Since the McKinney-Vento Act and revisions made by the HEARTH Act did not specifically cater to the housing needs of homeless youth, I thought that it would be beneficial to create a program under these policies that would provide housing for Liz and other homeless unaccompanied youth. The Transitional Housing program would not only meet Liz’s housing needs, but also meet her basic needs, teach her essential skills, as well as link her to supportive services. In addition, connecting Liz to the McKinney-Vento Education Program would ensure that she is provided with stability, consistency, and services while also ensuring that she is accomplishing academic success. Therefore, by providing Liz with housing, teaching her necessary skills, and providing her with other supportive services as well as educational support this would help to eliminate or reduce her risk of becoming…

    The agencies were chosen because they are the ideal candidates who have the ability to help individuals in our community who don’t have a program that fits their needs. These local stakeholders have experience and expertise in the prospective programs that will be utilized to serve individuals fitting the eligibility requirements. What makes this an efficient collaboration of stakeholders is the plenitude of programs which they provide, to include: behavioral health professionals, housing providers, law enforcement, social services, advocacy groups, education, probation, community based non-profits, faith based organizations, individuals impacted by the justice system and housing navigators. There are also stakeholders who would indirectly participate in the program to include: prosecutors, food service providers, defense attorneys and the court system. These agencies would cover the services that would be needed in order to serve our stated target population…

Of the 549,928 reported, 68% were residing in emergency shelters. The homeless population according to the report is comprised of veterans, families, unaccompanied youth 18-24 years, unaccompanied children under age 18 and single individuals. At some point and time, social workers will encounter this population regardless of their discipline and it is important to understand the issue, the person's perspective, and the needs and resources available to assist (Social Work Policy Institute, 2010). Social workers operate from the position of social change and understanding the many dimensions of homeless will assist social workers in the fight to end homelessness. There are many perspectives and misconceptions on the issue surrounding the homeless population. Society plays in integral role on the issue of homelessness and resources and actions taken to prevent the increasing numbers. As social workers, we have the ability to guide how homeless individuals and families see themselves and how society sees…

    The screenshot above documents our initial attempt to dealing with the social aspect of Hasbro. At our first attempt at taking this point of view, we were trying to find what social aspects affected Hasbro. We wanted to research how the social aspect affected Hasbro’s profits. On subsequent reframing of stakeholders, we began to look at the parents and children concerns of Hasbro’s business. Instead of looking at stakeholders in a Hasbro centered view we began to look at how Hasbro affected stakeholders (stakeholder centered view). This began to change our approach to viewing social issues. We started to look at how stakeholders viewed Hasbro.…
