Overview:

This week I continued my parent work by calling some parents for interviews. I also interviewed
Keriann Pringles, the Transition Counselor. I thought it would be interesting to find out what she does to
support the transitioning youth. We talked about some of the challenges with the parents and the
youth. She introduced me to the new counselor, Elaine Huitt.

On Thursday, I met with Elisha for our supervision meeting. We set up the meetings I would
attend with her next week. I also participated in the screening of the movie “Do You Dream in Color”. It
seemed well received. I received a lot of positive feedback.

On Friday, I attended the Governor’s Advisory Council. Elisha, Jill, Sandy and Mark presented for
the agency, with Wayne presenting for BEP. It was a very interesting, although somewhat adversarial,
meeting.
