Should you require assistance with the same assignment, please submit your homework details to our writers’ platform. This will ensure you receive an original paper, you can submit as your own. For further guidance, visit our ‘How It Works’ page.

First, describe: A brief background of the policy.
How this health policy topic relates to your community of origin and/or the daily life of Americans. Answer the questions below in this section of the paper. (Use headings to be clear when you are answering these questions in the paper.)
What is the history of this issue in the community?
Who is affected most?
Who has the most to gain or lose?
What are the consequences of the issue for people most affected?
What are the economic costs and benefits of this issue? Who pays?
What are the barriers for addressing this issue? What are the resources for addressing this issue?
Then, give at least three examples and descriiptions of documented approaches to this health policy on the federal, state, and local levels. Sources for this information include but are not limited to:
ProCon.org , Pros & Cons of Current Issues.
Current and past Congressional legislation and the Federal Register.
Current and past bills in the Alabama legislature.
The U.S. Senate (great for looking at committee websites for further info).
The U.S. House of Representatives (great for looking at committee websites for further info).
The National Conference of State Legislatures.
Kaiser Family Foundation.
The Commonwealth Fund.
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Health and Medicine Division (great for comprehensive policy reports and recommendations).
Health Affairs.
Local media outlets.
Next, identify a specific population of people, such as: rural Alabamians, your own neighborhood, our own state, a national minority group, working mothers, family physicians, etc. Then determine the policy approach you think would be the best fit for this population and explain why. Make the connection between the needs or risk of the population, the solution, and why it is culturally appropriate and evidence based.
Following your policy approach, write a plan for how you would advocate for this change (strategy, partnerships, resources, who would have the authority to authorize it, how would you publicize it, etc.) Utilize the worksheets from module 11 and the Community Toolbox in order to create this plan.
Finally, how do you see yourself affecting change regarding this policy issue in the future? You are and will continue to be a leader. How do you think you could make an actual difference here? How does this align with your personal goals? (This is a big part of why you should pick a topic you really care about.)
