Data

Review the DVD program, "Data Collection and Analysis," with Dr. Mark Kiselica. Reflect on the importance of community needs assessments when attempting to gain a clearer understanding of issues, problems, or concerns. 

Also think about the types of data that may be collected for various prevention, intervention, and consultation needs assessments and the methods of collection that may be used. (video attached) Review the article, “Youth participation in community evaluation research.” Think about the resources required to collect data and conduct a needs assessment. (http://actionevaluation.org/wp-content/uploads/Youth-Participation-in-Community-Evaluation-Research.pdf). 

Provide a description of at least two data collection methods that you might use when addressing the issue, problem, or concern that you identified for your Final Project. (What factors or barriers obstruct accessibility for children and adolescents in mental health using a systemic intervention?)  

Explain why you selected these methods and describe the resources you might need in order to use them. At least two pages. APA style, scholarly references and no plagiarism.
