Assessment/Marketing plan
The SAA Resource group is responsible for providing a plan on how to help alcohol
addicts reduce the use of alcohol over a period and eventually quit the behavior. There is thus
need to identify whether a region qualifies for the process. To find out whether a region deserves
the help of this program, it is necessary to conduct a needs assessment plan which is a plan
indicating the need for the program in the society. The first part of this paper is thus a need
assessment plan on how to examine the need for this program in my community.
The assessment will target individuals who are 18 years and above affected the problem
of Alcoholism in Jamestown. The assessment will include both male and female, although the
main concentration will be on the male population affected by the problem. The most affected
individuals by intake of alcohols in every society are the male species.
Alcohol use is prone to those under 18 years too. Therefore, the assessment will involve
use questionnaires on parents asking them if their sons are taking alcohol. The questionnaire may
have a section of whether the parents suspect their children are engaging in alcohol use. After
that, different forms of questionnaires may be given to married women asking them about their
husbands' drinking tendencies. The questionnaires will have a column on whether alcohol intake
has a relationship with men not fulfilling their fatherly roles. Some men will be given
questionnaires on their drinking tendencies and if it makes them feel bad. It is noteworthy that
some men may not give honest answers. The results from women are thus vital.
The program coordinators are thus required to move door to door with the forms. If there is
nobody at home, there is a reserve team in place that visits such homesteads after contacting
them and confirming they will be present. To make sure the process is not a nuisance, for people

who fail to open doors, the coordinators dropped the form in the mailbox and picked after three
days.
From the above description, it is apparent that the target audience will be men. However,
to get reliable information, it is necessary to engage women in the research process. The process
of evaluating the need for the program will take two weeks to ensure that it covers a larger scope
of the population for the efficiency of the process.
After the needs assessment plan, the next step is the marketing plan. It is emphasizing
mainly on whom will be served and the various methods used to reach them. For the process to
serve its purpose, it is necessary to have clear guidelines on how to reach the people. Although
the target audience is men, it is necessary to cut across all age groups in the program. It is
essential to do this because other people are having the same problem but are not male. There is
also a risk of leaving out teenagers who also get an adverse effect from alcohol usage.
To reach the target audience, it will need more than technology. Having interventions
from other social groups is necessary. Therefore, use of religious institutions like churches to
help reach the affected members of my community may be essential. The media may also help in
getting to the target group. It is a critical process as some of the individuals may fail to
communicate back despite receiving the message. It could be a result of them feeling as misfits
due to their condition. To prevent and combat such cases, a team that makes door-to-door visits
to the target members may be created.
