Legal Humanitarian Emily Daubert
"I never knew that Wooster had so much suffering and poverty in its midst. It's sad to see and hear some of the specific cases of domestic violence and broken families." "One of the clients came in today. A few months ago, her husband held her hostage over Mother's Day weekend and held a gun to her head telling her that if she left him, he would kill himself." "I am learning a lot about communicating with others. Before I would have been scared of these people, but I have learned that they are people too and have the same fears and concerns as I do. Perhaps, though, theirs are more serious than mine.....like figuring out how to feed a family of 4 with no money and no food in the cupboards." "I met Commodore Terry today. He's an interesting although difficult person to deal with. It's helps me to know that not everyone grew up like I did, and these people have real live problems that they have to face."
"I've realized through this internship that helping people is something I enjoy doing. I like taking a mess of a situation and showing people a glimmer of hope that something may go right. That's definitely a value I have witnessed in the attorney's I work with, their ability to shine hope in someone's life when all else seemed hopeless."
