CHoose a city/community where either you currently live OR a place that you hope to work in the future. Using the chosen location, identify a local organization or agency that provides services/program specific to individuals with substance abuse/addiction. These services should be community based NOT physician or hospital related services. The goal is to find organizations that an RT would realisticall educate clients about (consider adaptive sports programs, inclusive recreation, support groups, special events, assistive technology resources, community education, etc.) Locations such as hospitals, inpatient treatment programs or physician referrals do NOT meet the criteria.
Once the organization is identified, students will create a flyer or newsletter to share information about that organization (in one page).
The information should be presented in a visually impactful and organized format that is ‘client ready, which means this could potentially be a resource that you print out and provide to a future client. Be sure to include all the information listed below in your template – be conscious of layout, grammar, and applicability of information listed.
Consider the following information in your template:
Organization name/logo
Population and location served
Mission/vision
Services Offered
Description of the services provided
How can someone access the resources/services (i.e. enrollment, cost associated, education materials, etc.)
Benefits of getting involved in organization
Contact info/website
Photos/ images associated with organization
