SITE VISIT REPORT BSHS/311 WEEK3

Visit a site such as a women's shelter, a halfway house, a hospital, an agency, or the human services department of a company, where behavioral or cognitive-behavioral techniques or programs are used.

Talk with human services workers or the contact person about their programs that employ behavioral or cognitive interventions or models. Some areas to explore:

• What population participates in the program?
• Who presents the program or interventions?
• How is the effectiveness of their interventions measured?
• How did they determine a need for the program?
• Do they have plans for other programs or interventions which use behavioral or cognitive models and techniques?
• What other models and  theories are represented in their programs?

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word APA paper on your visit, detailing the information you gathered and briefly describing your reactions and feelings about the program. The paper needs a minimum of 5 resources.
