Instruction
Start your presentation with a brief introduction by telling your audience who you are and what you're going to be talking about. Give the audience some information about the issue (who is affected and how, important facts/statistics about the issue, laws/policy that relate to the issue, etc.)Find at least 2 intervention/support programs for that issue in your community. Provide the audience with a brief summary of each program (name of program, services they provide, cost, and how clients access those services).Wrap up your presentation with any other information you'd like to include and provide a summary for your audience.On the last slide, provide a summary for your instructor. What did you learn from this assignment? Did anything surprise you? Was it difficult for you to find resources in your community for the issue you picked? Any other information you'd like to share.
The readings throughout this semester are your main sources of information for this project. You'll also need to cite the sources you find in your community and any other resources you use. Your presentation should be a minimum of 10 slides with notes included at the bottom to thoroughly explain your points. DO NOT copy the information you incorporate from your sources. You must summarize/paraphrase the information and provide a citation at the end of it. You need to use APA format to cite your sources in the body of your presentation and on the Reference slide at the end. You're presentation will automatically be submitted to turnitin.com. You and your instructor will receive the results. If you need help with APA format or turnitin.com, please see the information posted in the Announcements throughout the term.
