Community Program Interview
Community Program Interview Assignment
(50 points)
For this assignment, each student will choose a community program to research and set up a time to interview a person from that agency (phone or e-mail).
My hope for this assignment is that you will make a connection to a community program that offers support, education, and resources for families with young children. Please consider finding an agency/program that works with families considered to need extra support or historically underserved. The program you choose must be inclusive. They cannot exclude anyone for race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, color, age, national origin, gender, or sexual expression.
Please include the agency/program you choose non-discrimination statement.
Examples of programs (These are just examples, please feel free to find a program that is interesting for you!)
Libraries
Schools
Boys and Girls Clubs
Mental Health Agencies/The Children's Center
Pride Center
Food Bank
Community Outreach
Immigration or Refugee Services
Latino Family Services
Hospitals
Environmental Groups
United Way/Help Me Grow
Home Visiting Agencies
Prevent Child Abuse Utah
Before and After School Programs
Outline (It would be good although not required to format your assignment with this outline)
1. Name of Program
2. Introduction and Summary of Program
3. Interview: After you have chosen your community program, please arrange a time to call or e-mail an interview with someone from that program/agency. When you call/e-mail, introduce yourself, explain that you are a college student working on a class assignment, and you would like to interview someone from the agency. You could have a summary of our class (from the syllabus) to read to let them know what kind of class this is. Please call weeks in advance to give yourself plenty of time to arrange the interview and complete the assignment on time. Research the program online before you call to familiarize yourself with its mission, get background & contact information, and confirm that they are inclusive and non-discriminatory.
*Questions for the interview (these are just ideas, you may need to create questions that fit your particular agency, please include at least 10 questions) This part may be in bullet points answering each question or a paragraph summarizing the answer and conversation.
· What is your role in this program/organization?
· Who and what ages do you serve?
· What are the goals of this program?
· What kind of support and resources does this agency need to be effective?
· Do you have special goals and strategies to reach families that may be “at-risk”?

Unit 5 Individual Project
A major producer of plastics in the United States is about to expand its business. As part of this expansion, it will begin to sell its products in Europe and Asia. In addition, it plans to open a plant in Asia. Jerry, the President and CEO, is concerned; he has heard many stories of companies that have tried to expand globally but operations either failed miserably or did not live up to expectations due to the cultural differences between workers and customers in each country.
Jerry has asked your group to research problems other companies have had with this issue and develop ways in which the errors and missteps those companies made can be avoided by his company.
As a group you should select a multinational corporation or international nonprofit agency that has encountered these problems (this can be a previous or current employer of yours). Using the Internet and the library, each individual in the group will research the organization to discover any cultural barriers that organization encountered and what its managers did to try to overcome those barriers.
Please note that this assignment has both a group component and an individual assignment.
Group Component:
· As a group generate and evaluate reasons why people may not appreciate the cultural point of view of others. Each individual in the group should at least 5 resources or materials (citations) (three of the five citations may come from the textbook)
· As a group discuss how appreciating cultural diversity affects peoples' ability to communicate effectively in the context of a multinational corporation or an international nonprofit agency. Feel free to add your own experiences as well as quoting others. Please share the resources, materials and citations that you find and collect on the small group discussion board.
Steps to be taken to ensure the success of the company.
Domestic competition
The company needs to put first competition from other companies producing the same goods and commodities. For the company to expand, this is the factor to put more emphasize on. Proper enhancing of competition has proven viable in evolving the business of an organization. Importation of a firm’s services and products makes it possible for an organization to overcome domestic competition. (Wickham, 2005).
Profit and sales increment.
An organizational success or failure lies on its sales and the amount of profit it makes from these sales. The way a product is received by consumers helps an organization on how to improve or in the production of other products and services. It is through this reflection that gives an organization the way forward for its expansion. (Lynch, 2003).
Global market share.
Global market share enables an organization to expand successfully. This policy is important for an organization to build on its market shar.

Recommended Treatments: Medical
Hospitalization: Reduce symptoms, monitor client, adjust medications, and provide therapy.
Levodopa Therapy: Treatment for Parkinson disease.
Seroquel Therapy: Helps with symptoms of bipolar depression.
Surgery: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS).
Increase Dr. visits for more frequent follow-ups.
Mr. Robin Williams died by suicide. Hospitalization would be a recommendation based on his history of depression along with his current development of Parkinson’s disease. There may have needed to be an adjustment to his medication such as dosage, or an addition. Levodopa (L-Dopa) was in his system. L-Dopa is a dopamine replacement, which is the most common treatment for Parkinson’s disease. DBS Surgery is used for Parkinson’s Disease by disrupting electrical signals in the brain.
1
Recommended Treatments: Therapeutic
Attend Support Group for clients and caretakers: Depression and/or Parkinson’s disease.
Individual Therapy: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Social Rhythm Therapy.
Group/Family Therapy: All family members included.
The therapeutic Inventions are all aimed at educating the client and loved ones. Understanding Parkinson and Bipolar is important. Understanding how you feel and deciphering between healthy and unhealthy emotions can help change behavior and improve symptoms. Social Rhythm therapy could help with sleeping, which could help improve disorders whether by feeling less anxious, more rested and less foggy brain and incoherent thoughts.
2
Recommended Treatments: Social
Join a club for people 55 and older.
Participate in an event with a person over 50 once-twice a week (Water aerobics, tennis, chess, checkers…)
Return to sharing bed with wife.
The Social Recommendations are suggested to help improve self-esteem, increase exercise, strengthen relationships, increase social interaction and exercise. Participating in activities such as water aerobics, tennis, chess or checkers have benefits, such as cardio and brain stimulation, but most importantly the majority of them cannot be completed alone. They require an opponent. Having an older opponent will increase the chance of less strenuous effort, enjoyment, and provide social interaction. Although he slept separately from his wife, returning to the same bed could provide the benefits of comfort, safety, and human touch.

Second only to the general concept of Web 2.0, virtual worlds are the source of more articles in PubMed than any other emerging social technology. Of the many virtual worlds, Second Life (a free, open source 3d virtual world platform) is the one with the strongest presence in health care communities, from patient groups and medical education to research and professional meetings. Second Life can enable health systems to create either public or secure private spaces for functions from patient education, outreach, staff training, remote meetings, or more. As with any social technology, understanding the context and norms of the online space are essential to making institutional engagement a success. In this session, we will look at case studies illustrating how some organizations have used Second Life for communication, collaboration and community engagement.

Participating in activities such as water aerobics, tennis, chess or checkers have benefits, such as cardio and brain stimulation, but most importantly the majority of them cannot be completed alone. They require an opponent. Having an older opponent will increase the chance of less strenuous effort, enjoyment, and provide social interaction.
