Need ride to CCSF orientation .

Post Reply New Topic

In about 1&1/2 weeks , an all-in-one day for testing (which must be done first) , orientation , and counseling for my planned going to CCSF in 2017 is happening , November 19th , and it may be the last chance to do so and have a hope of starting in January .
I need to do it if I am to possibly go to CCSF (I have outlined all this here before)
However , with my crippled-ness - Really , stronger , perhaps , then I let on here ~ I am not too sure that I can make the tests , etc. unless someone will give me a ride there , and back , and maybe be someone I can talk to in the course of preparing this , too , open up to them .
It is not that I am asking for help with the actual test/orientation/counseling , I will do that all myself ~ However , with my crippled-ness , my hard time dressing , my OCD-ness , and my sleep pattern I doubt i can get to a place which is new to me by 8:45 that morning .
I think I really need help then , a ride from someone with a car ~ It will take a lot of time ~ and back , and , as I said , supporting me/letting me open up to you .
Please ?
Frankly , I question whether I can make the t/o/c on that date without a ride ~ Which would mean that the possibility of me going in 2017 could be ruled out altogether .
I am pounding this one out ~ If anyone is interested , please PM me .
I do want to do this , but I do NEED HELP !

...To-day , going out without a backpack , just my crutch ~ If anything , my bad foot/calf hurts EVEN MORE !
Really , this is an illustration of why I could use a ride to the Nov. 19th t/0/c - I am trying to sign up for CCSF based on the idea that I may , one day (this coming January) be improved enough in my health and personal surroundings to go . then .
This is , really , it seems to me from my looking at it - the kind of " trying to improve myself " type of thing that outside folks extol for someone in my position .
However , I need help now .
I am in pain - and it is hard for me to get to the palce where the /t/o/c will be held on the 19th on this month .
I am ot asking for money or gifts , only transportation and maybe guidance getting around , someone maybe to talk to while I'm preparing all this .
Won't somebody please help me ?

What's the address of where the orientation is located

And what is the address of where you're staying now?

In my state, our mass-transit agency includes medical transit vans. Also, various churches have their own transit vans. If either exist in San Francisco (I have to believe they do), then getting a ride to and from CCSF (or close to it) should be easy. If I was still living in San Jose, I would happily drive you to and from your planned CCSF visit. Good luck.

That's true. Should have thought of that.

There is transportation for the disabled in San Francisco.

...The Web stuff I found for the All-in-One (as I'll call it from now on here) t/o/c doesn't seem to spell out EXACTLY where it is ! " San Francisco ~ the city that knows how " ?
I will seriously ask those of you out there , who have unlimited access to a computer whereas I don't , to please try entering: " all-in-one new student orientation CCSF november 19 2016 " and see if you can find out ! Please .
Seriously ~ all I can find relating to it is a duplicate of the paper copy I already have , which does not list a location !
The worker I have mentioned to-day said something about possibility , emphasize that , of a ride ~ But , incidentally , (IIIRC) in relation to something else , I told him one of my E-mail addresses to-day , and he said he'd contact me there (I think more?? thinking of something else with him when I told him to-day .) - and he , after I told him the Edress in the pre-noon hours , did not contact me all day ! !! !! !! !! So that is all over 100% until Monday of next week .
I am fully homeless , KK ~ I anticipate that I will go back to an alley I've used much ~ especially on weekends .
I had talked about " going to GG Park " , but , admittedly , it would take me away from being near a computer , my phone is noncharged , I haven't clothesed up AT ALL ~ and would going into GG Park with esseniially shower sandals as my only footwear , it just now occures to me , be wise ?
KK , being such a born-and-bred Neiu Yawkah ~ do you even drive ?
I haven't in many years ~ And , after my bit of graffiti desperado-ness in Santa Cruz in 2015 I got a " no-liscence " thing put on me that may have expired now or may still be going til' 2017 .

I've driven since 1998.

Why can't you ask your social worker for another placement?

Why do you keep getting these "bowel attacks," anyway?

...Yeah , but where ?
I will shortly have to sign off , can come back too-morrow , will have no have no computers Sunday anyway (banned from the library ) .

The website states that the "ORIENTATION" begins on Nov. 19 at "12:30 P.M." in room "MUB-140 (Multi-Use Building)."

You can take the BART to the Balboa Park Station.

Then take the 43 bus on Geneva Avenue. It will drop you off 1 minute from 95 Phelan Avenue, Conlan Hall, where the placement tests are being given at 9AM. Ask the bus driver if he's headed for CCSF.

Don't screw this up. It's not hard to get there.

...I am , now , not only crippled , but carrying umpteen pounds in bags .
And getting off to get there by 8:45 AM ?

It's only 7 minutes by the BART from the 16th Street/Mission station.

The test is in Conlan Hall, Room 101.

If you leave at 7 AM, you'll get there by 8:30....no doubt about that!

If you miss this orientation, there's another one exactly two week away, on December 5th.

Maybe you'll have a SRO room by then.
