When i first started my internship i did not really know what to expect and i was a little scared to even go. I thought that i would just be sitting around and talking to the homeless men at the shelter and not really learn anything  about the agency and just listen to the personal stories of the men at the shelter. Not only was i scared i was nervous that everyone in the agency would look at me like why are you here you and that i was just a no good kid from a college that had to be there and did not really care about them. When i first got there i took a tour of the facility and was shown were everything was and how a regular day was conducted around the office. The first person i met was Stephanie she was in charge of the scheduling of my hours. I worked a lot with Rick and Ziggy they are both case managers of the men at the agency, Rick is the case manager that is there during the day and is charge of the intakes and meetings that the men have to go through before they can start their programs, Ziggy is the case manger that is there during the nights and stays with the men through the night as they stay there. The shelter is open from 7PM unitl 7AM they are served 2 meals which are breakfast  and dinner but if they want they can come back during the day and get lunch if they want, but they cannot stay at the shelter all day they need to leave when the shelter closes. This shelter can have a total of 75 men staying at a time and they are allowed to keep a bag at the shelter during the day which has their personal belongings in it. One thing that i thought was really cool and interesting about this shelter is that when the men do their first intake and assesment they are ask what their goals are and most of them say they want employment, but for most of the men their first goal should really be getting help if they have mental disorders and other medical things like that  and thats what CCLM helps them do it helps them with their fist goal and helps them get the proper help they need. After my experiences at the agency it really made me think about my life and how i take a lot of things for granted when there are men like the ones in the shelter that have nothing and are trying to survive everyday on the streets. By working at the shelter it really it close to home and hit a soft spot because no one should have to live the way they live and i just wanted to make a change in their lives and i feel like i did that by just the little things that i did in my time there.
