Children born to substance abusing mothers
Get PDFIn our world today, we are facing an increase in mental health awareness. A major topic in this category is babies being born to addicted mothers. Children born to these mothers are entered into this world already needing help. What is important to focus on is whether the baby is born with withdrawal symptoms right away. As well as focusing on what type of environment they will be entered into. Is the mother going to get sober? Is she going to get treatment? As well as, is she addicted to drugs or alcohol. All of these will be examined and related back to how the child is affected mentally, emotionally, and physically. The main focus of this paper is, the life of the children born to mothers who struggle with substance abuse. This project will break down scholarly journals, findings from local counselors in my community, and formulate a way to improve my own community when it comes to helping these mothers and children. By focusing on my local community, I can see how families are affected by substance abuse, and see where our mental health system needs help. (Author abstract)Joyce, S. (2021).

Reducing and reusing: The difference you can make when you stop supporting fast fashion and start creating
Get PDFThe world is facing a crisis. Global citizens are not considering the consequences of their purchasing and therefore, with each purchase, they are further polluting our land, air, and water. The Penmen Press Party Dress exhibits the need for global change. Like most universities, Southern New Hampshire University is riddled with excess marketing materials from admissions, including printed publications such as the Penmen Press. The potential for the utilization of such materials in the construction of non-conventional material apparel is what encouraged the creation of the Penmen Press Party Dress. The dress construction is the result of an initiative to reduce pollution and the accumulation of waste, and to make the most of the materials that are already present in our everyday life. Various methods such as weaving, fringing, sewing, and folding will be prominent within the design and used to add texture and complexity to the garment. (Author abstract)Salter, K.H. (2020).

How communities can help veterans with PTSD
Get PDFHow can communities better help veterans who are suffering from PTSD? Veterans of our United States Military have long been affected by their service. What used to be called “shell shock” or “battle fatigue” is known today as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. They face a great deal of stigma surrounding their PTSD and there are a variety of barriers to getting the care that they need. Often, family members want to help but don’t know how. This paper looks into the ways community members and family members of a veteran with PTSD can help him or her assimilate into civilian life and cope with PTSD. Data collected will include a literature review on what has already been tried successfully, what therapies are available, and a review of resources available to help veterans.

Impact of international travel on intercultural competence
No full textAs the world becomes more interconnected, the need for graduates to have the skills and confidence to communicate with individuals from other cultures is important. This study explores the impact of international travel on Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) students’ development of intercultural competence. The paper consists of a literature review in addition to primary research using data from a survey completed by fifty-one (51) SNHU students who participated in international experiences during their time at the university. The analysis of survey data reveals that international travel adds value to a student’s ability to communicate with individuals from other cultures. The findings of this research also show that valuable intercultural competence is caused by the amount of interaction with the locals in the host countries; not the amount of time spent abroad.
