Name/Location of Community
Identify the human and social services or resources in your community, choosing the services located closest to your current address – campus services do not count!
Complete ALL items on the Community Capacity Assessment Form, regardless of location! If the nearest resource is not located within or close to your community, you may address that point in your reflection.
If you are using google searches, BE CAREFUL! The first options you see MAY NOT be correct for the assignment. It is always best to call the agency or view the agency’s website to ensure that they actually provide the resource or service in question.
