Program Proposal

What kind of program is this? Needs-based

What is the program? What will residents be doing? The program is a needs-based program tackling homesickness. Residents have expressed homesickness, so we’ve decided to get a bunch of residents to come together and share something from their home country and/or culture. Examples may be a snack, show a youtube video, show some photos, etc. This will also help the floor get to know each other better and potentially bond if others are experiencing homesickness as well.

What Residence Life Pillar does this program contribute to? Skills for Independent Living

Please explain how your program fits under the selected pillar. Dealing with homesickness is a skill that many residents are learning for the first time.

Who are you advertising this program to? My entire small team’s community

Anticipated Attendance: 12

Please outline your advertising plan, including a timeline and the different advertising methods you will use. I will put up posters 10 days before the event. I’ve already chatted to residents about it in our last floor meeting. I plan to put up door tags 5 days before the program. I will also send a message into the Cassiar group chat today, day before, and day of the event. Word of mouth is important for this one so I’ll also do door knocking invites during my next on call shift (Thursday).
