it shows how long it has been since i have posted that when i went to write this entry it took me a second to remember how to make a new post. goodness. anyways, i am headed for the capitol--washington d.c. I got a job with USCCB (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops) in their Refugee Department and will be starting Oct 9th. My official title will be "Family Reunification and Child Specialist". Basically, USCCB is one of two agencies that are referred refugee, migrant, and trafficked children from the federal government and are responsible for conducting assessments and making recommendations on placements of the children.
I'm excited, and the job has come together and worked out amazingly.
I will have a lot of Hispanic clients, and will need to be able to do interviews and translate for clients, and for this reason, I decided a trip to the Dominican Republic was necessary to brush up and get ready for that level of communication. :) So, on Thursday I will leave to go to the DR for five days.
Whirlwind.

¡Felicitaciones!

¿Vas a pasar tu tiempo allí en los lugares de las vacaciones, o vas a vivir con la gente de la D.R. (y no con los alemanes quien visiten)?

1999 hacía yo un viaje a Santiago en el corazon de la nación. Era mi primero viaje a un país del mundo tercero. Espero que te gusta a tí como a mi me gustó.
