  4. Now for our program we like to target
  5. different populations because we have two different programs.
  6. We have a program A. And a program B.
  7. Which why I will get into more detail later on in the presentation. But for program A.
  8. We target substance abusers and we target behavioral people with behavioral
  9. per for program B.
  10. We um tend to target or want to target unsheltered individuals or individuals or
  11. families who are in domestic abuse relationships
  12. or you know situations with their families.
  13. So those are the populations that we would like to target in our program.
  14. For an overview of the services as I said within program A.
  15. We like to target um substance abusers and people you know
  16. who are homeless but have you know behavioral health conditions.
  17. We want to tend to their um their uh physical health um and help them.
  18. So we offer medical services um rehabilitation to help them gain sobriety.
  19. Um We offer nursing um nurse aid to help them. We also offer mental health services.
  20. So we have
  21. we have um licensed clinical social workers and counselors to
  22. help them with their mental as they gain their sobriety.
  23. Um We also also offer social services you know to get them government assistance.
  24. Um Things of that nature and we also offer we
  25. want to give them you know the personal needs that
  26. they need um whether it be clothing um nice grooming
  27. to you know make them feel good about themselves.
  28. Um And we also offer developmental serve um courses for program B.
  29. Um program B. Is more so of a um housing type of service.
  30. So we like to provide housing for individuals who don't have shelter.
  31. We like to provide um
  32. housing for people of domestic,
  33. you know abused relationships and they want to get away from that.
  34. So we offer housing um We also offer job opportunities.
  35. We connect them with jobs and with people that will give them
  36. jobs and to help them you know get back on their feet.
  37. And we also offer personal needs to these members as well.
  38. And we offer transportation to jobs and we offer educational courses.
  39. Um These educational courses are to help them um gain higher educational skills.
  40. You know maybe they only have a high school diploma or
  41. things of that nature and maybe they did want to you know
  42. receive more education and so we have services that give them more
  43. education and fields or careers that they would like to pursue.
  44. So for a program a the hours of
  45. operation is from 8 to 5 p.m.
  46. So this is more so so the the the unit is a hotel
  47. type of structure um where we are offering them a hotel base.
  48. But we offer we offer this Services the medical services,
  49. the mental health services.
  50. We offer all of those services within the company but it's from 8-5.
  51. Um and after hours we do offer nurse aiding
  52. care to the ones who need some supervision.
  53. So it's an 8-5 for um
  54. for medical care and mental health services.
  55. But for the supervision,
  56. those are overnight services for program be the hours of
  57. operation is from 8 to 5 as well within this.
  58. Um that is if you need help with the housing,
  59. if you need help with anything of that nature, if you need help educational courses,
  60. you know, job seeking those opportunities,
  61. those all operate from the 8 to 5 um time frame.
  62. And so yeah, moving forward. The location of program A um I'm
  63. I'm targeting back home with in favor of north Carolina.
  64. Um and so program A will be in the area where the martin Luther king JR freeway
  65. um and it goes over Gillespie street and within
  66. that area there is a lot of homelessness,
  67. there are a lot of homeless people.
  68. Um there are a lot of people who are
  69. you know struggling and show that they need assistance.
  70. And so I really want to you know,
  71. structure program A which is the hotel like hotel like vision.
  72. I would like to structure that there.
  73. Um and I want to structure that there to
  74. target those people to bring give those people,
  75. you know a shelter, you know, clothing,
  76. grooming all of the resources and assistance that they need and for program B I
  77. would like to have those locations across Favell and hope meals because it is a
  78. housing housing type structure where it's like different apartments and
  79. we're giving you shelter um I wanted you know all
  80. across you know the entire state of north Carolina you
  81. know but specifically with in Fayetteville and hope meals um
  82. to just you know give the resources you know not
  83. only to a specific you know area but to allow
  84. it to you know be given to homeless people or
  85. people of domestic abuse within home meals or in Fayetteville.
  86. So I just wanted within those areas
  87. now moving on for employment for my business for program A.
  88. Which is targeting substance abuse um and behavioral conditions.
  89. I for my employment I have two psychologist positions.
  90. Um six therapists whether it be
  91. licensed clinical social workers counselors etcetera.
  92. I have four mentors, six
  93. to
  94. nurses to doctors, preferably family doctors.
  95. Because we're more it's not um the building or the
  96. services offered are more just medical services in general.
  97. And so I want six registered nurses, six P.
  98. RN nurse aides which means um those are the nurses that will rotate within
  99. the supervision shifts that I was speaking of prior and I want six caseworkers.
  100. And the reason I am maximizing this amount or making it so
  101. big is because you don't want to overload your your employees employees.
  102. And so that's why I want a good amount of employees to service all of you know,
  103. these people that we are bringing in.
  104. So the case work and you know won't be overloading for each of them.
  105. And for the program be
  106. I would like to have 10 caseworkers and five educational director's.
  107. Um the reason my employment for this one is so small is because
  108. it's we're we're tending to their needs but it's in a different way.
  109. Um we're giving them shelter and we're giving them a case worker
  110. who is going to attach them to you know government assistance,
  111. insurance,
  112. all of these things that will help them in gaining independence in society.
  113. And the five educational directors are just for them to you know
  114. receive um the education if they want to further their education.
  115. But for the program be we are strictly providing them with um
  116. we are strictly providing them with housing and you know,
  117. clothing and grooming all of their personal needs that they need.
  118. Um And so that's why it's not that we need so much more employment for that program.
  119. But for the organization as a whole. Um um and I will need a vice president position.
  120. I will need a Treasurer Secretary, a Chief financial officer.
  121. And this person handles the finances of the entire business.
  122. Um for program am program be together,
  123. this person oversees the fine finances overseas,
  124. where our donations are grants are coming in and
  125. where we still need funding things of that nature.
  126. Um The Chief data officer. Chief marketing officer. Chief security officer.
  127. Um We will need an executive assistant as
  128. well and a department head and a specialist.
  129. The department head um would be for each of the program A and
  130. program be this person is to make sure that the department is running.
  131. Um And it's effective things of that nature
  132. moving forward for the success of this business.
  133. The goal for this business is to help decrease the rates of
  134. homelessness and increase the rates of
  135. productivity and economic growth within society.
  136. So with homeless people, you know, they tend to um
  137. they're not working, they're not productive within society.
  138. And so within this company we are helping them to be
  139. productive to better themselves to get back out in the community
  140. and start working and that will boost their economic growth and
  141. the economic growth of these um of society as well.
  142. And our other goal is to provide for those who are facing other barriers um
  143. um with adequate governmental assistance and other resources
  144. so that they can become productive citizens.
  145. And that is the main goal is to become productive citizens within society again.
  146. Um So this business,
  147. this business will be successful because it offers many opportunities
  148. for individuals to better themselves to better their families.
  149. Um and things of that nature.
  150. And this program also provides positive impact not only on, you know,
  151. the individual but the economy, the public health because you know,
  152. while people are on the streets um they can, you know,
  153. develop different type of things and it they may not know,
  154. they may not be able to seek the treatment for it.
  155. And so it just spreads as they're going from, you know,
  156. this location to that location and it may spread.
  157. So that's why it's um aiding public health and society as well.
  158. So the competition that may appear within this structure um is I've looked up,
  159. you know, different programs that already exist in, you know,
  160. north Carolina for homeless shelters.
  161. And there are a few programs, they have homeless shelters,
  162. they have supportive housing, they have halfway housing, low income housing and,
  163. you know, residential alcohol and drug treatment centers.
  164. But the thing that I feel like will knock me, you know,
  165. boost me above the competition is that,
  166. yes, you know, these programs are targeting, you know,
  167. homelessness by getting them off the street, but that's all that they're doing.
  168. It's not helping them and, you know,
  169. getting back out into society and working my program, we offer jobs,
  170. we offer opportunity, we offer opportunities for them to grow within the program.
  171. And as they grow, it will help them to, you know,
  172. be able to reach the stage of getting a job
  173. and getting back on their feet and being independent.
  174. I feel like these um
  175. programs tend to only, you know, target, okay, let's get them off the street,
  176. but how are we gonna keep them off the street.
  177. And I feel like that is what my program targets keeping them off of
  178. the street and keeping them in shelter locations and helping them to you know,
  179. be successful and independent once again,
  180. So the theory of change,
  181. how will this program be effective by offering services that will help
  182. in attaining independence and the ability to sustain their sales within society?
  183. That's how this program will be effective.
  184. Why it aids in targeting the root cause of homelessness, as I was saying,
  185. and not just throwing money and resources at the problem.
  186. You know, there are many who say, okay here, just build this foundation,
  187. build this structure and, you know, get them off the street.
  188. But my program, as I have stated before,
  189. is actually targeting the root cause of holiness with
  190. aren't productive, they have no way of receiving jobs,
  191. they have no way of getting resources.
  192. And so within my program and they are bettering themselves mentally,
  193. they're bettering themselves physically,
  194. and they're bettering bettering themselves, you know, emotionally,
  195. emotionally and financially to be able to
  196. help them gain sustainability within society.
  197. And my program, as I have stated targets homeless households,
  198. homeless individuals.
  199. And so that concludes my presentation on my business Finding You Foundation
