Problems
Resources: Ch. 1 (pp.
27-57) of Human Services in Contemporary America and Appendixes C and G
Due Date: Day 7 [Individual
forum]
Review your list of
local city and state agencies (or the two agencies you compared) and select a
target population. Examples of target populations are the poor, unemployed,
children, elderly, people with disabilities, persons with mental illness,
substance abusers, criminals, homeless, and persons living with HIV/AIDS. Once
you have selected a group, research a current issue or problem affecting this
target population.
Identify the current and
unmet needs of your chosen target population, and describe the possible
obstacles that are preventing resolution of the problems. What human service
programs addressing the problem currently exist, and how are they helping or
hindering the problem?
Locate two credible
sources from the University Library or the Internet that discuss the problems
this target population faces and incorporate your findings into your paper.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper in APA
format, with references, summarizing your findings.
Submit your paper as a
Microsoft® Word attachment.
