Basic Information to Include (recommended for all presentations):

• What is covered in a workshop – consider providing handout with the overview of the workshop that is typically provided to participants, note importance of action planning, brainstorming, and problem solving throughout

• How your audience can be involved – referrals, hosting a workshop, attending a workshop, recruiting Leaders, etc.

Additional Detils (depending on audience):

• Background on Stanford’s development of CDSMP, and research outcomes of this evidence-based program (see fact sheet on Stanford or Living Well websites)

• Example exercises from the workshop – many choose to demonstrate the lemon exercise or action planning with an audience
