    I think this is a great program for the community. I was actually speaking to my boss today about a Welfare program they had tried to introduce some years back that completely failed. The idea was to get people on Welfare to start working, and if certain agencies hired said employees then they would be tax exempt. But then the people hired had terrible attitudes towards the program because they didn't want to be at the job or other personal reasons. Bottom line, it was a good idea with good intentions, but since the actual people in the community weren't invested, it just couldn't work. Project QUEST seems like a much better solution because it deals with parties that have their best interests invested and best foot forward.

    Businesses and government bodies are missing out on significant savings by under-specifying websites and digital campaigns, according to the latest issue of the Irish Internet Association's latest State of the Net quarterly bulletin. At a time when there is huge interest in delivering services online and running campaigns, many internet projects fail to deliver on their objectives. People are constantly losing jos because of poor planning within the group.

    In the Better Together reading, Valley Interfaith worked with parents, grandparents, and guardians of elementary school children to find out what they thought were the most important improvements to be made at or around the school. This article describes a school improvement project that City Year organized, getting ideas for projects from the people who use the building.

    This is a very inspiring video. Though it doesn't delve deep into the things we've discussed this week, it does demonstrate the process of considering our past and present efforts in order to apply transfer learning for a proposed resolution.

    While looking up the legislative process, I stumbled across this video and found it interesting. Are we looking at the current processes in place and really examining them? Are we slaves without knowing it?

    Mayor Linda M. Balzotti announces that the Brockton After Dark summer program will start on July 2nd. Various activities will take place over the course of the summer at different locations throughout the city until August 24th. "Brockton After Dark accomplishes more than just keeping youth busy," said Mayor Balzotti. "The wide range of activities offered enables young people to take part not only in athletics, but also social and leadership development activities, learning skills that will stay with them for many years to come." Now in its ninth year, Brockton After Dark provides athletic and enrichment opportunities to youth, ages 13-20, at no cost, weeknights during the summer. Brockton After Dark will not be held Wednesday, July 4th. Various activities include basketball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, hip hop dancing, and art classes, as well as several other programs, which can be found on the City of Brockton's web site. Food will be provided at most sites. This is a great program to get these youth off the streets. I think many cites need to look into this and see if there city has funds for these programs.

    This is nice Gwen! This program goes hand in hand with your community project! I also agree that if we had these type of programs available to our youth in more towns and cities, many lives would be changed for the better!

    This is a great place to look at what we can do to make change right here in MA. Granted, this is much more that needs to be done -- but as I look at this list it makes me wonder, "where do I fit in?"
