Arkansas Research Project. A Unified School-Community Approach to Remodel Guidance Services and Expand Next Step Placement and Follow-Up. Final Report.
Arkansas State Dept. of Education, Little Rock. Div. of Vocational, Technical and Adult Education.
A project was conducted to develop and implement a school and community-based guidance, counseling, placement, and follow-up program that would place counselors and support personnel in an optimum position to meet the individual career-planning needs of every student, including the occupationally inclined. Specific project goals were to develop and implement group and individual guidance services, a viable placement service, and followup services for those students who have exited from the school system, and to involve the community in planning and operating the expanded services. The programs were conducted in four Arkansas schools. It was found that the restructured and reoriented services resulted in the better ordering of priority needs and focusing on procedures for using employment information, exploring alternative work experience activities in the community, and providing placement in next-step services for all students. Throughout the body of the report are examples of programs and forms used in conducting the program. A third party evaluation containing data analysis of the program constitutes one-third of the report. (TA)
