2. Conduct a literature review. Some documents to facilitate your review have been placed in the course Resources section. You will use the library database to identify through the literature most important issues faced by group members. Resources for how to do the literature review are available under the Resources tab in Blackboard

a. Identify possible target areas discovered by past research and practice

b. Use at least three cited references (from journal articles) and at least one relevant website

4. Specify the form and the content of at least six group sessions and an objective for each group meeting. You may use bullets of subtopic areas or content for each session but be sure to explain the focus of the sessions. You may plan to have more than six group sessions, but you do not need to explain the subtopic areas of more than six.
