Make choices

It all started like this.

I'm exhausted from the school and all its duties. Fortunately, I just finished my technic in Youth and Adult Correctional at Collège Ahuntsic. Then I have to make a choice with the type of customers I want to work with. I'm lucky to have been able to do internships in different workplaces. These opportunities have allowed me to have a foot in the door. Working with adults to integrate them to the society and working with kids to help them face the reality, and to make their lives better. Many have misbehaviours like taking drugs. I have to make a choice between the two. Choice 1: I choose to work with Adult customers Choice 2: I choose to work with Youth customers

Scene 1.

I choose to work with Adult customers. Two completely different choices are available to me. I can work at prison where I have to do increased surveillance, have an authority on them. Being in the presence of criminals, killers. I can also work at community organization where the crimes are less worse. Choice 1: I work at Prison Choice 2: I work at community organization

Scene 2.

I work in Prison. I learned at College Ahuntsic how to protect myself and it was worthwhile. I am a victim of sexual harassment. Nothing detereed the detainee to stop to look at me. I am afraid of what he can do against me. His misconduct makes me feel uncomfortable on the job. Choice 1: I keep it to myself Choice 2: I tell my boss

Scene 3.

I keep it to myself to see if it stop one day. For now, I am alone in this situation. There's no one that can help me. Choice 1: I quit my job Choice 2: I continue to live with it

Scene 4.

I quit my job to find another one that I love. Maybe, I did the wrong thing in the first place so I can start over. A better life is waiting me. I have a lot of choices. Start again: Maybe, I can choose to work in a Community organization.

Scene 5.

Nobody knows what the detainee do with me. He rapes me when he gets the chance. He threatened to kill me if I talk to someone. I do not have the choice to remain silent especially because I carry his child. At least I will not work for almost two years. Start again: If i could turn back time, I could make better decisions.

Scene 6.

I let my boss known of sexual harassment that I live. He told me I have made the right choice. He said I'm courageous for having denounced. However, I have to change to another unit or having a transfer to another prison. I have to choose what it's the best for my security. Choice 1: I change unit Choice 2: I choose to be transfer to another prison

Scene 7.

I was killed by an inmate. He stabbed me in the neck because I talk against his friend. Start again: Choose something else to live.

Scene 8.

There are too many people that want to work in Prison. My transfer doesn't work, it has too many applications for admission. It's a dead-end job. Start again: More often than not we are wrong, I will try something else.

Scene 9.

I choose to work at Community Organization. I want to help people in need. There's two different customers. Men and Women. Choice 1: With Women Choice 2: With Men

Scene 10.

I decide to work with Women. Women that live violence. It's hard because it's touching me personally, emotionally Choice 1: I quit my job Choice 2: My boss fire me

Scene 11.

I don't like to work with women because I'm one. I have to find something that I will love. Start again: Start all over

Scene 13.

I decide to work with men. It's harder to work with them with women. Choice 1: I help them carefully. Choice 2: I help them in a bad way.

Scene 14.

I love my job. I find a boyfriend. I find love. I never thought something like this will hapened to me. Start again: Why start again when you find happiness?

Scene 15.

I did something bad. I sold coke to my customers. The police arrested me. Now, I am in a Prison Start again: Stay in the right way.

Scene 23.

I realise I don't like kids. I can't stand them. Children get on my nerves. I have to start over a new technic at Ahuntsic College. Start again: Make the right decisions and take the chance.

Addiction Intervention

Hi everyone, I found an interesting website about alcohol and drug rehabs. If you have questions, you can take a moment to visit this website. It is interesting for the one that studies in Youth and Correctional Intervention Program because the abuse of drugs take a lot of place in the life of the people we are going to help.

http://www.rehabs.com/about/addiction-intervention-services/

In this article, it explains how it is for the drugs addicts. It also explains what is the importance of an interventionist.

First of all, an intervention with family can help them to talk to the addict about the problem that causes excessive use of drugs. Generally, addicts think that they will be able to stop their consumption whenever they want by themselves. Unfortunately, it is false. They will perdure their abuse and fall into depression and low self-esteem because they won't have respect their agreements to stop it. The way to help is an intervention.

How and when they will be intoxicated is their center of interests and the hoarding or eating disorders take a lot of place in their lives. This fixation will eclipse everything that matters to them. It is really important to see an interventionist because the problem will aggravate the body and mind's healthy. It had a lot of services that can help addictive people.

It can be difficult to talk about the addiction to an addict, he will deny his problem. You may have to require the help of an interventionist. The interventionist will find out why the addicts take drugs and will guide the addicts with strategies in a vulnerable moment. The family and friends are an asset because they are there to take care and support the addict in this process. Close people and Interventionist make a good team to help the addict.

The addicts have to choose the right intervention to attain sobriety. You can choose the Jonhson model, the Systemic model, the Invitational model and the Field model.

This is a good quote of the site to remember;

An interventionist's assistance may literally mean the difference between life and death.
