ABOUT

Recent Experience
Two and a half years ago I found myself in a shelter.  See article on MinnPost.com story for an introduction to my story.  From the very beginning, I immediately discovered resources and services I never new about.  Since I've been working on developing a web design business I was immediately aware that there was a serious gap, or lack of information about certain resources.  Then, there was and is the potential for more clarity, more connection, and more relief for our community.  The whole community.

Past Experience
What I bring to these projects is more than 25 years of work recovering from an alcoholic family system, and being sexually molested at the age of about 11 years old.  This is not just surviving terrible experiences, but doing the work to KNOW relief.  That in itself is public support for those still suffering, or have suffered, that there is hope, there are those of us that know the result of going through difficult recovery work.  My message is all about living, not just surviving.

Mission
The Mission of CSR Direct Services is to be the best source of community information and connection to services and resources by and for the community.  To facilitate community participation, and fill in the community resource information gap while thinking outside the box.

The Projects
This work is not one website, or even one web development project.  It is 4 web development projects with 1 web development project for the work that oversees these projects.

Web development means a web presence that includes an official website that is the hub of information and social media, a Facebook page or group, a Twitter account, Blogger site, and YouTube Channel.  Other social media sites may be added when it's needed or helps.
  1. CSR MN Forums - a message board for all of Minnesota communities.  This has individual forums for specific subjects.  It is the main link to social involvement of the community to help update the resource information.
  2. CSR Minneapolis - the official site, and web presence that is the information for Minneapolis and western metropolitan Twin Cities, MN, distilled down from the message board.
