Knowledge from living in or near the community

Identify an area for your project and begin to explore how it applies to your specific community. Use your current knowledge from living in or near the community to identify a potential area of interest and briefly discuss why you think that an upstream approach could be an effective way of addressing the issue.

Students should prepare a 2-3 page summary of why they chose their topic area and their ideas for developing a specific focus.
