I have a system with the following concepts:
*Programs (As in social service programs)
*Program Contacts (people who are associated with programs)
*Application Users (most users are Program Contacts, but some users are
system admins who aren't associated with a program)
All the above is fairly easily modeled, I think. However, I hit a snag
with the following spec:
*Application Users need an email address (for password retrieval
purposes).
Most users are program contacts, so for them, it's no problem getting
the email address from the ProgramContact instance. However, what do I
do for Users who happen not to be ProgramContacts? This email address
ought to be shared somehow, but I can't figure out how to model it.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Do you abstract email address with a class in your system, or store it
in a String as an attribute?
