1. Identify an organization that could benefit from the Air Quality Flag Program.

a. Ideas: schools, churches, nursing homes, hospitals, daycares (places where vulnerable populations may have outdoor activities)

b. Reach out to the organization’s leadership to set up a time you can present your findings and information about the Air Quality Flag Program.

i. You are encouraged to have a few organizations in mind in case of rejection or conflicting schedules.

c. You are only required to have one leadership member present for presentation, but more are encouraged and welcome. If more than one person in leadership is interested, you can present to all at the same time or individually. You are encouraged to set a date and time(s) for your presentation for some time Saturday of Week 5 through Saturday of Week 6 to allow ample time to complete the Week 6 Part 4 Evaluation assignment.

2. Conduct additional research related to air quality and the problem as identified in your Community Health Assessment and Diagnosis assignment findings.

3.Download the PowerPoint Presentation Template.

This data should relate to the vulnerable populations that the organization cares for. Example: If you are presenting to a school, then childhood asthma cases are relevant. If you are presenting to a nursing home, then COPD data is relevant, if you are presenting to a church, then all data may be relevant.
