Hello! 

My name is Audacious Douglas and I am an intern for the 2021-2022 year. My first week at Fenix Youth Project Inc has been very informative. I started my week off by getting accustomed to the faculty and my responsibilities based on my learning plan. I completed training based on how to better serve the  LGBTQ+  youth, especially the homeless population. I learned a lot about the homeless population specifically in the Eastern shore area. I attended my first HALS CoC meeting where I learned that finding funding for temporary housing, such as hotels is a major issue. I was also able to attend the Point Source Youth Conference: Youth Homelessness where I gained more knowledge that I can’t wait to share in my next post!
