PLAGIARISM FREE "A" WORK IN 12 HOURS

Respond to my CLASSMATE’S DISCUSSION by stating why you

AGREE and ask at least one question in response to an original

peer post that you would like the author to explore further.

Discussion 1 (Madeline )

The Employment Services Department of Human Services was chosen because I have been

victimized by the need for employment at a late age and can testify to the difficulties

encountered by older adults and disabled people seeking meaningful and reliable jobs at a late

time in their lives. This is mainly true for those attempting to reenter the work force with or

without the proper job seeking skills, attire, and interview skills of confidence due to a need for

remedial education and beginning computer skills. The choice to include remedial education and

beginning computer skills because in my years in the field of corrections and public service my

attention was focused at times on individuals who could barely write their names legibly and also

afraid to use their voice and words for many reasons.

One issue encountered as I made a choice of an HSO, and potential grant proposal basis was

deciding where I could be used most effectively. Between Disability Services: legal assistance

and advocacy for seniors, and Employment Services job training readiness available to those

fifty-five and older, with employable disabilities, and youth requiring a boost to bring them up to

basic job readiness and making them qualify for different types of employment otherwise not

available to them.

The human service organization I have selected to base my grant proposal final project on is the

Department of Employment Services. The reference site for this department is Employment

Services |U.S. Department of Labor.gov - https//www.doi.gov>agencies>eta>. The mission of

the U.S. Department of Labor is to foster, promote, and develop the welfare of wage earners and

job seekers. Improve working conditions, advance opportunities for profitable employment, and

assure work-related benefits and rights (U.S.. Of Labor, 2023).

Running head: Assignment 1 2

The organization in the city of Baltimore in the state of Maryland that has been selected to

provide services in my community and is of interest to me is the Women's Housing Coalition,

Inc. Baltimore, Maryland, known for opening doors to change (WHC, n.d.)

The Women's Housing Coalition, Inc. - Baltimore, MD is aka WHC | Baltimore, MD |

www.womenshousing.org. The WHC shares its impressive mission statement as being dedicated

to ending homelessness cycles for Baltimore City residents, individuals, and families facing

challenges of social inequities and personal disabilities. The coalition provides affordable

housing and supportive services, enabling people to achieve and sustain social and financial

stability. The league's primary focus is on women and children; they are, however, available to

serve everyone experiencing housing insecurity. The coalition also provides quality, safe,

affordable housing, case management, advocacy, life skills training, somatic, behavioral, and

mental health referrals, and access to individualized service plans tailored and suited to meet the

individual needs of each person or family (WHC, n.d.).

The focus of the grant proposal idea I wish to submit and have approved will be an added

addition to the Women's Housing Coalition, Inc. - Baltimore, Maryland, which will provide

employment opportunities to those fifty-five years old and older who are employable and who

desire to enter back into the workforce. While the services are primarily for older adults who

tend to have problems obtaining sufficient reliable employment because of age-related or

disability-type stereotyped ideas of some potential employers, the services will be available to all

individuals who have the desire and need of job training readiness skills, such as:

1. Introductory computer skills training

2. Resume development

3. Proper Attire

Running head: Assignment 1 3

4. Interview communicating skills

5. Job search and placement assistance

The targetted vulnerable community this identified program will service are older adults who are

victimized because of primarily their age or disability and in need of financial support for

employment.

An improved community situation would restore images of self-concept in the personal self and

world view of senior citizens and disabled people's ability to earn and make money

independently and be positive influences to the community. Approval of my grant proposal

would be like the beginning of a second chance in life for many previously discouraged feelings

of helplessness and hopelessness. This proposal if obtained will also contribute to the mental

beings of many individuals and help stabilize community attitudes and mental beings.

Evidence that my organization is succeeding in achieving its goals will be evident in maintaining

a solid caseload of employed adults with access to the organization for any assistance they may

encounter.
