  1. Understanding the individual or community with consideration for cultural affiliations
  2. Understanding the individual or community with consideration for environmental influences
  3. Providing prevention services that emphasize the mind-body connection
  4. Providing intervention services that promote healthy holistic development

  • The poster’s title, author’s name, and school affiliation, should be positioned at top-center of the board.
  • The poster should read from left to right, or top to bottom, allowing for smooth and logical viewing. Connecting visuals with arrows is considered the standard “guidance system".
