Hi everyone, I am a nurse practitioner student living in Yorkville, and I am currently taking a class focusing on the treatment of addicted clients. One of my assignments is a community assessment, and I need to "talk" with some members of the community (or any neighborhood in NYC for that matter) to find out their views on a few questions...I could ask my friends since most of them live on the UES, but I really want to try and get a lot out of this assignment...here are the questions.
What community-based programs currently exist that participate in prevention of addiction problems?
What are some health concerns related to addiction in our community?
What in our community may contribute to the development of addiction problems?
Any contribution, even just a sentence, would be so helpful to me for this assignment, and it may even lead to the formation of some addiction prevention programs right here in our community. Thanks so much.
