Personal Narrative: My Goals For The Community Affairs Team

Improved Essays
One of my goals for the Community Affairs team is that we provide services to our internal and external business partners in the most cost effective manner possible. As a public agency, we use taxpayers’ money and as such, the use of overtime is reserved for only those times that merit its use. To assist the team in achieving this crucial goal, I have certain expectations regarding the use of overtime and working hours outside of your approved work schedule. The purpose of this letter is to reinforce these expectations.

ODOT’s Principles of Public Service Ethics Policy (PER 01-02-01) states in part, “As public employees of the Department, we spend our customers’ (the taxpayers’) money. So, we hold ourselves to a higher standard of conduct

Personally, this has been an area that I wanted to focus on for years because I felt that each ELA teacher was not able to move forward when it came to developing a viable curriculum. As teachers, we were planning on an individual grade level, but we were not specifically aware of what our colleagues were doing.

    In the Human Services field I am very passionate about working with people in the deaf culture. I am passionate about working with this population because I know American Sign Language and I feel a connection to the community. Learning ASL took a long time and allowed me to be engaged in many events in the deaf community. I believe people in this population are not given nearly as much attention or opportunities as they should be. The lack of equal access to education, jobs, and basic interactions that hearing people take for granted is not fair and puts this population at a disadvantage therefore making it important for people to want to work with this group of people.…
