Updates

I have emailed the director of The Georgetown Project and am now just awaiting his reply so I can set up times for an interview and observations. Thanks to Matt Kamas, I now will be able to get in contact with a member of Project Sarah. I plan to call her tomorrow to see if she would be interested in being interviewed.

In the meantime I have been working on my IRB which I plan to submit this Tuesday as well as the interview questions for my first interview.

It seems that things are coming along and I think I have decided to see how different organizations in Georgetown approach homelessness instead of specifically The Georgetown Project. I think it would be interesting to compare the different methods they use. What do you guys think?

  1. What other groups would you employ? The Caring Place would be a good organization to get in touch with as well as goodwill and the salvation army (I know there's one in Austin - not sure about Gtown). Are you talking about just groups or individuals as well that are not representative of a group?

  2. I am thinking about looking at the directors of various programs such as, The Caring Place, Starry, Project Sarah, and maybe some individuals involved in this issue of homelessness but that are not associated with a group specifically.
