Lesson 16: Continuing Relationships
Lesson Introduction
"The most important single ingredient in the formula of
success is knowing how to get along with people."~
Theodore Roosevelt
Chances are, while in your community placement or while
engaging with your community project, you will get to
know certain individuals well. You may even decide that
you want to keep in touch, or eventually ask them to
provide you with a reference for a job or another
volunteer opportunity. Depending on the level of your
relationship (how close you are with someone), it can be
hard to know exactly how to approach the relationship
maintenance process.
I want you to be thinking about a few things when
working through this lesson:
Why it is important to maintain and nurture
relationships formed during
placements/projects?
How might you do this?
Think a bit about how you may go about
asking for a reference letter from your
community agency/organization. What kinds of
things to you provide them with to help
strengthen their reference?
What might you include in a personal “about
me” statement?
