the work the portion I have completed

Option House

Description

This was not my first-time doing community service. This community service was different for me it felt more personal and relatable. In the past I have taught English nursery rhymes to kids in South Korea. I have spent time playing bingo at a nursing home with the residents, I have also done park clean up and I have made beds at a homeless shelter.

The Option House is a safe place as well as an emergency shelter for kids ages three to seventeen. The Option House helps runaway kids, homeless kids, and disenfranchised kids by giving them a place to call home. When living here a kid is required to do all the things a kid would normally have to do. These Kids have to do chores, have a bed time and they also have to go to school and if they are not in school the have to have a job.

At the Option House I was a volunteer youth care worker. In this position I would schedule a time to come by the house and interact with the kids living there. I helped them with homework, we played sports, video games, board games and we also eat together. Eating together and doing all these activities gave the kids a sense of normalcy. I volunteered at the Option House to be a positive male role model to kids who don’t get the opportunity to see or experience that on a regular basis.

Being able to volunteer at the Option House was harder than getting a government job. I had to pay get my finger prints taken and put on file, fill out a thirty-page application, take a drug test, do an FBI background check, complete interview, and a two-hour orientation. This process took a month and a half to complete. I had to manage my time to have the time to volunteer. Which was difficult trying juggle being a husband, a father of six kids, a full-time student, and completing my community service.

Analysis

When problems arise as a volunteer, I am mostly hands-off but I do take a utilitarian and deontology approach to situations. For instance, one of the kids went on an excursion which is pretty much going out on their own without adult supervision. When he returned, he had scrapes and bruises and complained of pain in his hand. I spoke with him about what had occurred and assessed the situation. I came to the conclusion that he had been in an altercation and I needed to calm him down and help him with his bruises. He did not want me to report the incident but not reporting it would cost me my volunteer position. I wrote up the incident and called the Option House director to inform her about what happened.
