one week to go

As the semester winds down, there is not much new going on within my role in the agency. I am still leading groups, assisting the youth in the educational piece of the day program and visiting the adolescent I have been assigned for my case managment.

Monday I led group with the boys. We discussed ways in which they can better prepare themselves to become productive young adults

Tues. we continued the conversation and discussed Jay-Z, a promanent rapper who has worked hard and made it big in the industry.

Wed. I visited my student in his school. I then went to the agency and since I was to late to work with the kids in group, assisted one of the other interns in the computer lab.


Practice/micro: How have you experienced successful endings? What do you already do now to help your clients experience successful endings?

As we end this semester, I have been talking with the kids in the day program about how I will be leaving in a couple of days. Not surprisingly, the girls are a little more sensitive to the ending of the semester. They ask me questions about what I am going to do this summer, how I have liked my time at the agency, things like that. I have also provided them feedback that I have learned a lot from them and the conversations we have had. I have told them as well that the time spent over the last 15 weeks has been beneficial in my development as a person, and I appreciate their willingness to let me in and discuss issues they face on a regular basis.

Time:
Week: 16
Total: 229.5
