Plan your health promotion activity/service
Instructions: For this part of the activity, you will begin to plan out your health promotion activity/service by performing a community assessment, research data and trends and selecting a community agency to collaborate with.
1. Each student will use a community assessment model (e.g. Community as Partner) to do an abbreviated community assessment, which must include data collection and a windshield survey, of your selected community. A complete windshield survey should include elements such as boundaries, housing and zoning, open space, commons, transportation, social service centers, stores, condition of the area, race and ethnicity, religion, health indicators, politics, media, media, business and industry. See Chapter 12 in text. (25 points)
2. The student will analyze data looking for trends showing strengths, weaknesses, and conditions
3. The student identifies one or two community health problems which represent a particular aggregate at-need or at-risk. Be sure to include citations and a reference list to support the identified problem and need for this intervention. (25 points)
4. Identify an activity or service you can provide to meet this need and your target audience. Projects must have a community focus. (25 points)
5. The student will then collaborate with a community agency to plan and implement a health promotion project to address the problems and needs of the aggregate. This can be a church, educational facility, community center, or community group in your community. Students MAY NOT complete clinical projects in their place of employment. (25 points)
