Where I work at: I work at the Juvenile Justice Center as a youth Advocate. When all the kids who behave go into the classroom I will usually take one or two “red” status or misbehaving kids into the large area outside their cells and give them an orientation, math and reading tests, or just help them with their homework while trying to be a friend.
Why did I join: I joined AmeriCorps for four reasons that are in no particular order: a job, and ed award, the chance to move out west, and an insatiable desire to help people.
Educational background
I was a Religious Studies major at Hiram College.
My hometown:
Kent, Ohio
Life After AmeriCorps:
I plan on going to Seminary at a UCC site in either Berkeley, St. Louis, Chicago, or Maine.
