Three Ships’ Post

During my time at @Life Without Barriers, I’ve learned that fostering can come in many forms. Providing care doesn’t have to be full-time; it can be providing a safe space for a young person for a couple of nights or one weekend each month. When it comes to fostering, no two children or families are the same; that’s why Life Without Barriers doesn’t take a one-size-fits-all approach.

2nd attempt to post. Though at DEA they are not so proud to highlight their shortcomings that they have no issue hiding from taxpayers. They removed my previous posts which simply expresses DEA's willingness to hide their incompetence and disabled comments on the appropriate post. If this firm put out the truth and numbers of how many things they had to redo on this Highway 20 Safety Upgrade between Corvallis and Albany OR taxpayers would have something to say about this firm’s laughable ranking. How about it DEA, put out an itemized list of everything that had to be done two or three times because it wasn’t done right in the first place and how much taxpayers money was wasted in the process. In my driveway alone they had to do multiple things more than once. No wonder ODOT never comes in on budget with incompetence like this! Taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for this! DEA was contracted for at least the Newberg-Dundee Bypass, the worst one, up 239% from original estimate. https://lnkd.in/epv6uESx

Is your school a neighborhood school? Do partnerships in the community drive value for the students and families you serve? This week I had the opportunity to discuss the strategic role of community partnerships with Jemia Cunningham-Elder, CEO at North Lawndale College Prep in Chicago. We got into: - Evaluating community sentiment - What types of partnerships you might want to look for - Potential pitfalls when leveraging partnerships - Practical considerations for operationalizing programs/partnerships - How partnerships can offer unique opportunities otherwise not possible - The role of a leader/CEO in driving community engagement - much more! Give it a listen 🎧

Excellent conversation with Melanie Frazer, ACE and the Halton Hills Chamber of Commerce! Thanks for giving me a platform to share information about the Project SEARCH program. #networking #schooltoworkprogram

Teaching our youth the importance of service and Being useful to others is crucial… At Give Back School, We emphasise this value by bringing ten of our students each week to feed the homeless in downtown Rio de Janeiro. This hands-on experience not only provides immediate relief to those in need But also instals a deep sense of empathy and social responsibility in our students. → By directly engaging with the community,  → They learn the significance of giving back,  → Understanding the impact of their actions, and  → Developing a lifelong commitment to helping others. I believe that this practice cultivates a generation that values service and promotes selflessness. Live Generously  Umberto —--------- PS.
