Therefore, this is what constitutes a community in a generalized…

A social issue that greatly affects health is the ever expansion of poverty among minority based communities, such as South Los Angeles. The concentration of poverty creates many barriers to health for the people that inhabit these communities by cutting off their communication with community resources and supporters that could yield beneficial outcomes. Sadly, a loss in communication with external supporters of urban health makes it extremely difficult for those with limited resources (e.g.,…

the community. I had the privilege of helping in the Sabre Garden which had various different jobs for everyone to do and help participate in. The Sabre Garden is just one of the many things that helps the community in a great way. It also ties in with civic engagement and I felt like I made some progress with getting together with many other people and working together. The Sabre Garden is a community garden for anyone to help with and volunteer. The main way the garden helps the community is…

Some benefits of volunteering is it can help you reduce stress, make friends, learn new skills, reach out to the community, and advance in your career.

These successful people could play a big impact on the rise of these communities, but instead most of them leave, never to return, making everyone else feel like their community isn’t meant for the talented. Vance says “people naturally trust the people they know”, so by going back to his hometown, Vance could tell his story and inspire people to work hard like he did. Vance’s return to his hometown could impact his community for the…

principal. It was evident that Mill Creek is lacking community involvement. Our school does work with Carnage Village and the local community center but I would like to see participation with more community members. As a future administrator I will identify key members in our community and invite them into the school or classroom to teach students about their job or trade. I think this would not only benefit our students but the community as…

Europe to come join and become apart of new countries and societies. In early 2016, 25,000 refugees are set to arrive in Canada and I want to answer the question that can we integrate them into our cities and make sure that they become a part of a community and a country that they can trust will get them good jobs and keep them safe.

It is pivotal that each and everyone of us give back to this experience in anyway we can. It is our civic duty as members of our communities to engage in some form service. Giving back to the community has a lasting and positive impact on society at large. Community…
