Clinical Group Proposal

Topic: Our group proposal focuses on adolescents ages 1218 who are involved in the foster care or child welfare system and have been impacted by parental substance abuse.


3. Group Composition and Diversity- Miltilla Hall

Who are the prospective group members?

What is your rationale for selecting this target population?

How will members be attracted, recruited, or selected?

Will you conduct screening, and if so, how? Identify criteria to distinguish appropriate from inappropriate candidates for the group.

How will specific diversity and social location issues be considered (e.g., if you are developing a group for Haitian American clients, how will the facilitators take their culture into account; how will you address any concerns about discrimination, equity, or stereotypes)?

4. Group Timeframe and Location- Miltilla Hall

When, how long, and for how many sessions will your group meet?

Where will the group be held? Provide your rationale for these decisions.

5. Group Structure/Type- Miltilla Hall

What is the proposed the structure and type of group?

What group norms will you try to foster?

How will you be using technology, if any, to facilitate or supplement group processes (e.g., videoconferencing, online discussions, online social networking, electronic record keeping, apps, avatars)? Provide your rationale for these decisions.

6. Group Leadership [or Facilitation]- Miltilla Hall

Do you plan to lead or facilitate this group alone or with someone else? Discuss what you believe your primary functions, tasks, and roles should be. What theories will guide how you facilitate the group? (e.g., behavioral, cognitive, developmental, analytic, narrative, structural, ecological, or existential theories). How does your theoretical orientation fit with the purposes of the group? If there will be a co-facilitator, analyze issues associated with this.
