(2PuBTS A& August 24, 2012 FEATURES | The Western Carolinian The Community Table of Jackson County: same mission, different location By Laura Odom Staff Writer SRER \ The Community Table of Jackson County has served its neighbors Since 1999 and has occupied the home on Bartlett Street for many years thanks to the con- tant patronage of the Sylva Church of Christ. As the needs of The Community Table began to grow, the house on Bartlett Street tried to keep up with its tenants needs. The Commu- eg Table does not just erve meals throughout the week, but they also provide boxes of food that can be taken home by those in need. In 2011, The Community Table was able to serve 16,741 meals and provide 2,008 food boxes for home use. , By expanding into what was previously the Golden Age Center, The Community Table is now able to serve comfort- ably without the previ- dus traffic jams that ccurred between the kitchen and other areas gf the ee However, the new home did not come ready made. The projected ren- ovations were $43,000. Through contributions from Jackson County and the invaluable gen- erosity of local business- es and individuals, The Community Table was able to pull together the money for the renova- - tions and improvements. The new location offered the dining, kitchen and storage.spaces that were desperately needed to create smoother service. With the addition of more space, The Com- munity Table is now able to offer a larger pantry that allows more variety in the choice of groceries for the home use boxes. When Amy Grimes was asked about the -move from the house on Bartlett Street to the new location, she stated, Moving went so smoothly, much more so than I couldve imag- ined. We had an amaz- ing group of volunteers to help us pack, clean and.do the heavy lifting. Andy Brae news direc- tor at WRGC, brought a large trailer witha ramp that made for fewer trips back and forth and also saved our backs from lifting refrigerators onto trucks. , The transition into the new location as made possible by the various volunteers and employ- ees of The Community Table. On the single larg- est moving day of the transition, The Commu- nity Table had 18 volun- teers in addition to the two employees. The Community Table of Jackson County is de- . pendent upon volunteers to achieve its goal of pro- viding a welcoming envi- ronment in which their neighbors can receive nutritious meals. If you are interested in helping The Community Table, volunteer opportunities are available throughout the year by contacting them at 828-586-6782 or | at ctofjackson@gmail. - com to schedule an op- portunity to help. - There are various other ways to assist The Com- munity Table like food WCU News Services David A. Shapiro, the Robert Lee Madison Dis- tinguished Professor of communication sciences and disorders at Western Carolina University, has been elected president of the International Fluency Association. The announcement was made in Tours, France, at IFAs seventh World Congress on Fluency Disorders, which was held in July. The or ganization i is. committed to under- | standing and managing fluency disorders such as stuttering and improv- ing the quality of life for people who have fluency disorders. Members include researchers, speech scientists and speech-language pathol- ogists from more than 30 countries on six conti- nents. TFA is an assembly of people from diverse countries with diverse ideas, cultures and customs, said Shapiro, a professor at WCU for 28 years and a speech- language pathologist for. ~ 35. Some people say that differences divide. How- ever, IFA is living proof that when we focus on a common interest and are ) willing to learn and grow together, there is nothing that we cannot achieve together. As president, Shapiro will guide the organiza- tion in development of a strategic plan to coordi- nate research and clini- cal service across the continents. Members, past members and pro- spective members from both the professional and consumer commu- - nities will be invited to. participate in a survey to share how IFA could | better serve their needs and interests. _ Depending on the response and what is Photo by Amelia Holmes/Staff The Community Table moved from Bartlett Street to the former Golden ie Center for a roomier, more permanent location. : drives to stock the food anc Together we can make sure that no one 2 Jack- son Gaunt goes to bed pane said Grins. included in the eiitesie plan, the association - may expand how mem- bers share their scholar- ship and clinical experi- | ence beyond publication in the Journal of Fluen- cy Disorders and atten- dance at World Congress events every three years. Shapiro also suggested, IFA may explore more _ collaborative efforts with organizations such as the International Stuttering Associa- tion and International Cluttering Association, which represent spe- cific fluency disorders, in addition to self-help organizations within individual countries: Shapiro, who has ' personal experience with stuttering, has become internationally renowned for his work in communication sci- ences and disorders and has engaged in teach- ing, clinical service and research across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and Africa.

This position enables me to WCU professor elected president of international fluency organization contribute on a broader scale and to coordinate such efforts internation- ally. I will do allI can to bring pride and honor - to IFA, to the USA, to people with fluency disorders and speech- language pathologists, to Western Carolina University and to my own family.
