Today for my blog, I am posting a paper that I wrote in order to discuss the public concern of homelesseness. The goal of the paper was to bring awareness as to why it is a social problem and to provide some possible solutions to the problem. One nice touch that you can add to any paper where you are trying to persuade someone is to add a personal story, so I incorporated a few personal stories and tried to empathize with the homeless community.
I have worked for a temporary staffing
agency for the past ten years. During
that time, I have met a lot of people that have a job but are still homeless,
or people on the verge of being homeless because they do not make enough to
support themselves and / or their family. I have also encountered people that are on the
verge of foreclosure of their house or eviction from their apartment, or are
already homeless. More often than not,
they are also experiencing additional taxing situations, such as divorce,
repossession of, or mechanical problems with their vehicle. Although these are personal issues that many
people deal with, This blog is intended to discuss the topic of communications and assist in both personal and professional aspects of an individual's life. As part of my Communications Capstone course, I will post a digital portfolio of my previous work. My goal is to spread my knowledge about communications, as well as, provide informative and persuasive papers on topics I believe should be important to everyone. I hope you enjoy my blog!

Media Technologies
This week in class we had a discussion about media
technologies. The first four that I
thought of are television, radio, printed materials and social media. Being 40 years old, the first three have been
around my entire life…and even before.
The latter, is one that is very popular today; although not as big of a
part of my life as it is so many others.
