Our organization is committed to serving our target population. We are looking for new, interactive experiences that enrich and assist members of this population.

We would like to collaborate with students to implement a wellness program. Students will have access to key contacts in our organization for feedback on the program planning.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Researching and applying information on wellness programs for the target population.
• Developing a specific wellness program (e.g. an arts program) suitable for a population with varying abilities.
• Assisting in planning activities that are inclusive of varying cognitive and physical abilities.
• Assisting in implementing the program over a period of time.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

• Recommending future wellness programs to implement.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Understanding of wellness programs and our target population
• Development of a suitable wellness program
• Identification of activities that are inclusive of members of the target population

Bonus steps would include:

• Recommending ideas for future wellness programs

Final deliverables should include

• A 10-minute presentation.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Our values, mission and vision statements
• Our target population and current programs
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

We can provide students with:

• A walkthrough / tutorial of our values and programs
