This week was an interesting week. I feel like teaching another person is very hard but amazing at the same time because you are projecting your knowledge onto another person. To start me and Raechel decided to work together since we are in the same sorority. We came together and decided that our audience was going to be all of our sisters at one of our Sunday meetings. Our procedure we decided was going to be asking them their views on homelessness, what resources they think are available, and the language used surrounding the Homelss community. As we started to plan we noticed that most of our friends were in the library and we decided to change who we were tailoring our teaching project to. We decided to teach our friends and sisters as they passed by in the library. We wanted to focus on these topics because they are very important in understanding homelessness. If we want to teach others we have to start with the basics and work our way up. When we talked to our friends we noticed them all using similar words. tThey would use words like they are dirty, poor, crazy, drunk, and sad, This is not all of the Homelss population. we went on to explain that some do go through different mood swings due to not talking to anyone and being lonely, mental health issues, and some are on drugs and that does alter their personalities. We also went on to explain that there are three different types of homelessness. We started with chronic which is the least common type. This is when they are homeless for a longer amount of time due to a specific situation. Next is transitional homeless. This means that they stay at a shelter for a set time due to a catastrophic event int heir life. This is the most common type of homelessness. The last is episodic which means they frequently go in and out of homelessness. When we taught about this we also taught about different resources available. Together we talked about 211 which is a hotline to give available resources. Another resource is the HOPE officers. This gave them a new look to officers. They started to have a a open mind towards some officers because some do end u0 helping the Homelss protecting them and providing them resources. When we mentioned this they told us they thought that churches always had open doors and available resources to keep taking people in. They also thought that food is always being donated and used. Some places use the food and are always needing more but some places do not use the canned food that they have in their pantry which is terrible. We also had to explain that the government does not do to much ti help the cities decrease homelessness. Overall our students learned that homelessness is very diverse. People range in race and age. They also learned about all the different resources and that their are Homelss counts done.
