Faculty News

Capa logoJim Glasson, M.A., Human Services internship coordinator, reports that 25 local families enjoyed a complete Thanksgiving dinner thanks to the generosity of our university community. The Social Sciences department collected $540 for families that participated in the Child Abuse Prevention Association’s parenting support groups, known as P.S. We Love You. The families earned Thanksgiving baskets by participating in parenting education classes and volunteering at the agency, which provides prevention services and operates a shelter for abused and neglected children. Each basket held a turkey and all the fixings for a complete Thanksgiving dinner.
