- Talking to my mentor, she is very knowledgeable and provides me with very in depth and accursate information.

4.  Who is your mentor, or where are you volunteering, and how does what you are doing relate to your working EQ?
-My mentor is Octavia Sisley, and I volunteer at the Union Station Homeless Services Administrative Offices, the Family Center and the Adult Center. At the Administrative Offices, I create several brochures, fliers and marketing ads that would encourage more people to become more involved in the volunteering and helping the homeless.
