This course outline contains materials for use in conducting a course designed to prepare high school students for a number of community service occupations. Addressed in the individual units of the course are the following topics: interpersonal relationships with those needing services (families; aged, poor, handicapped, ill, and pregnant individuals; and infants and children); community aides (consumer and social worker aides, civil service, and entrepreneurship); therapeutic recreation aides; homemaker aides; housekeeping management assistants; and the world of work. Each unit of the outline includes parallel lists of concepts, behavioral objectives, suggested learning activities, and evaluation criteria as well as lists of related terms, suggested resources, and references. Student materials make up the appendix (the larger part of the volume). Included, to accompany each unit, are questionnaires; quizzes; check lists; flyers; practical information, such as how to reconcile a bank statement; and pertinent excerpts from related literature.
