Interested in joining the workforce after some time off or if COVID has you rethinking your future plans? Whether you’re in school or after graduation, had time after retirement, join our team at Piast Institute as an Americorps VISTA (Volunteers In Service to America).
This position is a one-year commitment to its “Education and Reduction of Opioid Use Initiative” program directed at the area’s senior citizens, immigrant, ethnic and racial groups. The duties will include a hands-on experience focusing efforts on increasing the awareness of the dangers of opioids and prevention of opioid use disorders and the impact on their lives and their community. You will be working in the city of Hamtramck, a 2.1 square mile diverse, urban environment that is an enclave of Detroit. The district-wide school surveys list 31 different languages and cultures represented in the student body. It is the most densely populated city in Michigan with about 10,000 people per square mile. The Piast Institute created the Hamtramck Drug Free Community Coalition (HDFCC) in 2007 in response to the rising rates of substance abuse. Through this coalition, Piast Institute has applied prevention efforts targeting mostly youth and business owners. The Americorps VISTA will be focusing instead on outreach and prevention to senior citizens who are more likely to be prescribed opioids due to long term chronic health issues. Applicants must be 18 years of age and have basic computer skills, excellent writing and speaking skills and ability to work with the public in general. Knowledge of a foreign language is a plus in a diverse city such as Hamtramck. VISTA members receive a monthly stipend, health insurance and a stipend for tuition or a monetary bonus after one year of service. For more information please contact Virginia Skrzyniarz, CEO/Co-Founder at (313) 733-4535 or skrzyniarz@piastinstitute.org.  The Piast Institute is pleased to announce that it is a recipient of a grant from the Wayne County Commissioners with support from Wayne County Commissioner Martha G. Scott in the amount of $49,500. Piast Institute is developing an outreach program named “Family Table” that focuses on good nutrition choices for youth and their families in the zip codes of 48203, 48212, 48205, and 48234. This area has some of the highest poverty levels in the metro Detroit area with 100% free lunch programs for the school children which number over 16,000 students. Piast Institute, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization is located in Hamtramck, Michigan and has been serving the national and local community since 2003. It has also created in 2007 the Hamtramck Drug Free Community Coalition (HDFCC). “Food Security, Food Justice, and Food Equity are some of the most important items we are trying to address in this area” said Virginia Skrzyniarz, CEO and Co-Founder of the Piast Institute. Family Table will consist of mapping the area to document access and availability to food whether through a grocery store, gas station, community garden, etc. Recently there has been news articles that document the need such as “Inflation hits home: Metro Detroit food banks see increased demand as food prices rise” by Brett Kass from WXYZ. “We have definitely seen an impact at our pantries and our distributions,” said Kelli Kaschimer, director of Volunteer and Client Services at Forgotten Harvest. "Lines are getting longer and the needs are getting greater.” Families that receive SNAP benefits will be introduced to programs such as Double Up, which matches your fruit and vegetable purchases dollar for dollar, up to $20 a day. That means you and your family get twice the fresh fruits and veggies. Family Table will also help address food storage to extend the use of food whether in the refrigerator, freezer, or pantry including canning. For any additional questions please contact the Piast Institute at info@piastinstitute.org or by calling the office at 313-733-4535. http://www.thehamtramckreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/HR-6_24_USE.pdf Konsulat Generalny RP w Chicago organizuje dyżur konsularny w dniach 10-11 czerwca br.

To give an update on our packages, they should be arriving THIS Saturday (4/16/22) and will help so many men, women and children. The variety of socks was outstanding! Did you that socks are one of the most requested items at homeless shelters? We have been asked many times, why socks? The real answer is, why not? Refugees had traveled long distances for long periods of time without an opportunity to wash clothing and a fresh pair of socks could warm feet and hands. We cannot thank everyone enough for their support in making this effort such a huge success. Share with your friends and family!
