Policy Proposal Project
You are expected to develop a policy proposal for this advanced policy course. This paper will represent your final examination. You should select a client group which is discriminated against because of race, culture, gender, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status or any other characteristic. The selected group can be a subgroup of the university community, a city, county, state or nation. A social problem negatively affecting the targeted group must be identified and documented and a new policy proposal responding to the problem must be proposed. Your recommended proposal may represent an improvement over a previous policy or a new strategy altogether. As part of this proposal, you must recommend a program or intervention that operationalizes the policy and that takes into account the needs of minority groups. Finally, you must identify the desired outcomes of your policy as well as the criteria you would utilize to evaluate its success. The written project must follow the following guidelines.
