Gearing up for the Summer

I've got just about a month and a half left before my VISTA service ends. Some of my main projects between now and then will be preparing for the tranisition of my responsibilities and ongoing projects to whoever will be assuming them, training new staff members and working on documentation.

Recently I've been working on a DVD for a documentary about a four year project my HOME Inc was involved in a few years ago with several schools. We're planning to make it available for sale, so the quality has to be top notch.

I also recently edited a video shot by students who attended the inauguration back in January. Copies will be given to the students and donors that made the trip possible.

We're in the process of hiring new staff and restructuring the organization to work with new schools, with our program in the Somerville school district expanding. I've been interviewing many of the candidates for staff as well as assisting in the plannign for the summer and the following school year.
