Interpretive
4. The most important thing that I gained from this experience is communication. Communication is the best possible way to get through a individual with a deep and troubled past. The counselor in Pomona Community Crisis Center are a great example because there are constantly people that are setting appointments to meet up with the counselor and when the meeting are over the seem more relax in my observation. Also from helping clients I could say that my communication skills are improving. 

Applied
5. This summer was very stressful to me because I kept on switching topic mostly due to no one accepting me or because of my age. First of all I wanted to do something with non- profit organization but I could find a place that fitted my needs or the direction that I wanted to be, and the only place I found is Salvation Army and I don't think I could turn that into a topic that I am passionate about. From there I went on to Dentistry and health care clinic but my age restricted me to those topics and to be honest I doubted they wanted to mentor me because they were busy and they barely know me. After weeks of switching topics and no phone calls I decided that I have to find a topic fast because school was approaching quickly so I searched up domestic violence clinics in Pomona and found Pomona Community Crisis Center and House of Ruth. I'm a feminism and domestic violence victims are mostly females and for that reason and whats available in Pomona, and that's how I chose my topic. Also I went in my mentor-ship knowing my topic.
