Week of February 7, 2011

From Cinda:

                 Monday I'm off to the state capitol for a "day at the legislature" for our social policy class.  I'm hoping to hear when the civil union's bill will be introduced.

                Tuesday, in for a team meeting and supervision.  It looks like I will be doing some clinical work after all!

                Wednesday was a productive board meeting.

                Thursday was our second Student Night and we had seven students from DU come.  They are all doing their community project on the transgender community.  Kate and Geno were here to talk and answer questions.  It was a fun evening!

From Cinda:

                Monday we were closed due to the weather.  I sent Karen the pamphlet to look over, sent e-mails to the volunteers, and contacted students concerning student night.  I also spent some time looking into transgender homelessness.

                Tuesday we were closed again due to the weather.  More research into the issue of homelessness and the transgender community.

                Sunday, exchanging e-mails with Karen, and e-mailing the DU students on Student Night.

Week of January 24, 2011

From Cinda:

                Monday I was home sick, but Tuesday it was back to the Gender Center.  Karen and I talked about the volunteer training, then she met with one of the presenters for the Gold Rush clinical track.  I printed fliers to take to DU on Thursday, and talked with a open hours drop in.  Miranda came by and fixed some computer problems we were having - thank you!  And I worked on my IFEP update and talked about that with Karen.  Kate also dropped in and she and I talked about the grant.

                Wednesday I sent out the Gold Rush clinical track fliers via e-mail, printed out some parts of the grant handbook, and read that over.

                Thursday I was in for my meeting with my field liaison, then off to DU to drop off fliers at the departments that didn't get back to me about the e-mailed flier.  Then it was back in the evening for a team meeting and then volunteer training.

From Cinda:

                  Monday was just Karen and I.  Nice supervision time, then I sent out an e-mail to everyone how's expressed an interest in volunteering (seven folks!) and will send follow-up e-mails a couple of times before the "big day" – January 27^th.  This also went to the Board, so we hope most of them will also attend.  We also did a little cleaning up of the Gender Center, and some cleaning up on the web site (broken link, outdated material) and I'm looking for a nice tri-fold template for a new pamphlet we're putting together.  We talked about the Gold Rush.  The Gill Grant is off, too!

                Tuesday Karen and I went over what needs to be covered at the volunteer training.  I took notes and will do a final polish on that this weekend.  I'm working on the pamphlet for our services, too.  Now that is off to Karen to look over.  Miranda came in as well!

                Thursday, we met at Restaurant King for the team meeting.  Looks like I will be trying to get the Denver Foundation Grant done by February 1^st.
