What is the main goal for this project?

Our organization works on developing mentally healthy communities. We seek to assist community members to overcome anxiety, depression and provide the right mental health tools to cope. We focus on the idea of reflective practice and encouraging counselling skills to become equipped for your field of choice.

  • Research Psychology related content and create an article on your view of the topic of choice
  • Community outreach, engagement, and/or community development
  • Social justice and/or advocacy work, including social policy research and/or advocacy

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

The final deliverables should take the form of:

  • Psychology/ Social Services related program creation ( Ideas)
  • Bi weekly assignments submission ( Research paper, Reflection Papers and Practical Counselling sessions)
  • A 30-minute presentation end of placement
