THE HUMAN SERVICE
CLUB
All Human Service Program
students are encouraged to join the Human Service Club, the campus
club devoted to community service projects and disseminating
information about subjects of interest to human services students
and professionals.
The Club has sponsored a
variety of speakers in the past on subjects ranging from stress
management to alcoholism to careers in mental health and child care.
They also have traditionally sponsored community service projects
such as collecting candy for trick or treat bags for needy children
at Halloween, Christmas caroling at a homeless shelter, making
Easter baskets for homeless children, and selling holiday greeting
cards to benefit local charities.
Members of the club
represent Dutchess Community College at the annual conference of the
Mid-Atlantic Consortium for Human Services (MACHS), a conference of
human service faculty and students from throughout the mid-Atlantic
region featuring workshops and nationally-known speakers. This is a
great opportunity to network with hundreds of other human services
students and learn about the field.
