Proper APA Style format (7th ed.) is required (see the Writing Center’s Introduction to APA (Links to an external site.) for assistance). If you choose to expand beyond the resource located for this assignment and utilize supporting materials, then the use of two peer-reviewed, scholarly journal articles is also a requirement.

  • Outline any detailed information the source provides about services and professionals involved in services.
  • Describe the type of information there is on the requirement for accessing services.
  • Explain any information provided about the number of people served and the demographics of people.
  • Conclude if the available service is adequate for treating the needs of this particular population to be served.
    • Defend why or why not.
  • Determine what other professionals might need to be involved in the service setting to make the service more effective.
