>> From an academic preparedness standpoint,
a lot of our staff has a background either in psychology or in social work.
So that's incredibly helpful.
If you don't have that kind of background, though, it's an organization
that has all kinds of needs all the time.
So we have people who are in charge of raising money and we're putting out social media,
or making a meal, or sorting mail, or doing whatever.
And so the diversity of background is enormous at the staff at Broad Street.
But what you need is kind of an attitude in that you're going to get weirded out.
You're going to get a little nervous, you might get scared,
you might have your boundaries violated; and your ability to accept that,
bounce back from that, alter it -- you're walking this constantly fine line.
And so your humility and willingness to learn is one of the most valuable things you can have
when you're engaged in direct service with a vulnerable and traumatized population.
