I finally managed to get through to Legal Aid. She told me that there are "legal clinics" in 3 locations, the closest to me being El Monte. However, the one in El Monte is on Wed at 5pm, and I am going to be at work at that time for the next several weeks. This does not hurt my feelings, because I grew up in El Monte, and somehow the thought of ( Read more... )

I tried to talk her through it over the phone, ( Read more... )

I just completed 2 assignments... one for my Non-Profit Management class, the other for my Ecologies of Care class.

The one for my Non-Profit class required me to think about my past management experience, what worked, what didn't, and also my previous interfaith experience. All good.
