Place To Volunteer

I have been trying to get in contact with places I could volunteer at. These are some examples that would be the most convenient for me:



        House Of Ruth             

         The House of Ruth is located in Pomona. Previous seniors volenteered there.



        Cal State Fullerton                               
         
        I have emailed a couple professors that are in the social work department at Cal State Fullerton, asking if i would be able to sit in on classes.

      Independent Component 1 Approval

       For my independent component I want to research the different processes and policies that social workers who work in child protective services have to go through in different situations. This would help me become more familiar with  what exactly is going on when working with my mentor. There are many different terms, policies and processes that can make understanding things a bit harder, doing the research will give more clarity and understanding overall.
