Employment: Housing Case Manager for Veterans Job Description: Responsible for providing housing, outreach services, rental assistance for homeless veterans or those who at- risk of becoming homeless. Organization: Families in Crisis  501 © Non-profit organization  Established in 1980 to assist and empower victims of family violence and sexual assault in Bell, Coryell, and Hamilton counties in the Central Texas area.  In 2009 organization began its Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing Programs. Including the Texas Veterans Commission and Supportive Services for Veterans and Families  In 2015 the organization opened the first Families in Crisis Homeless Shelter in Killeen, Texas.

My philosophy as it applies to education is that “learning must focus on the whole child rather than on content or the teacher” (Cohen, 1999). This philosophy is known as Progressivism. I believe that students learn more and are able to connect to what they are learning when they are able to be active, experiment and ask questions. As a result, I feel that all veterans should be treated as individuals. The services that they seek should be based on their needs. Abraham Maslov stated that “people are motivated by their needs” (McIntyre, 2007).

When I think of Social Principles in terms of education, my first thought is that every student should have an equal opportunity education. This means that each student should be presented with every opportunity to reach his or her highest potential. I believe that the same should be expected throughout life and its challenges. In this research, one of my primary focuses will be towards the veterans individually and the services that they receive. There are two social principles that I will keep in mind throughout my research. These two principles state that (1) society must as a concept believe in the equal worth of everyone of its members and (2) society must establish a real equality of opportunity. These principles don’t suggest that everyone must be presented with the same opportunities. They simply suggest that each person be given the opportunity to do well.

Ethics are the “norms or standards for conduct that distinguish between right and wrong” (Burgess, 1989). Throughout this research, it is important that ethical considerations be consistent and continuous. The ethical considerations that I will be focusing on are respect for privacy and confidentiality and minimizing the risk of harm. In order to make sure that these considerations are handled in a proper manner any participant that I interact with will have to have to sign an Informed Consent Agreement. This agreement states the participants willingness to be included in the research. Minimizing the risk of harm is important because it is never my intention to do anything when interacting with a Veteran that would cause any form of mistreatment, disrespect or any other negative outcome. I would never want to place a client in a position to be in a worse state than they were prior to receiving service.

 Remain non-judgmental  Handle information with respect  Never assume an outcome  Rely on the facts presented

 Interviews  Surveys (Prior to service and after service)  Compare/Contrast past and present charts  Quarterly Reports
