partnership interviews

On July 13,2011 the TURN IT UP! crew went to the Family partnership Center 29 North Hamilton st. At first we interviewed Tree the leader of ,R.E.A.L. Skills, DEAL,and Wizards of Poughkeepsie. These three programs were youth from grades first and up. This was a great conversation he explained how the programs started and how this year how DEAL is such a huge hit that they have 90 kids and that he feels bad to turn other kids away. After that we interviewed two college student Quamisha Desroches and Arrielle McClean they are the ones who runs the R.E.A.L. Skills program. They say that the program started when they were little and when they got older they started runing it. Quamisha also states advice to the TURN IT UP crew saying that if we have a dream don't stop heading for that dream keep on with it. Arrielle gave advice to the team about students going in to the high school. She says just do your work and pay attention. Lastly we had went to family service and meant Jessica velazquez and Cherrell laster they are the ones who are apart of family services they say they people come in ever day some come with their heads hanged low and other come with kids to put up for adobotion.the information they gave two teen moms was don't listen to sicoety and don't give up on going with your child and feel good about it. visiting the partnership gave me a whole new background and i would love to go back.
