Presentation Tool Kits
Phase two of CARE Center development at RML has provided outreach to those who
do not use the library, have English as their second language, or have low-functioning
literacy skills. The CARE Center is reaching these groups with "Presentation Tool Kits"
specifically designed for each group.
CARE Center users can check out these kits and present a unit on any of several cancer
information and awareness topics. The Center has kits to check out for adults,
women only, teens, and people who primarily speak Spanish. The kits, purchased with
a grant from the American Cancer Society, the Georgia Cancer Coalition, and the
Georgia Department of Human Resources, have everything a presenter needs to create
an informative and effective presentation.
The kits for teens and children contain information on tobacco education, nutrition,
decision-making, and cancer screening. The information is presented through flip
charts, videos, posters, handouts, visual aids, pamphlets, and educational games.
Childhood presents an important opportunity, through health education in the schools,
to teach healthy lifestyle habits. Any church or social group would benefit from this
type of presentation.
The kits for women only have everything one needs to do a presentation on breast
self-examination, PAP smears, and healthy lifestyles. Call the Roddenbery Memorial
Library CARE Center for more information on these Presentation Tool Kits.
