Project: Part 2: Putting Social Advocacy Skills into Action
Writing a proposal that functions as a focus of
change is a significant part of being a social worker/policy advocate.
This is your opportunity to use your advocacy skills to change and
improve the lives of others.
In this Assignment, you write a proposal for
some form of social advocacy that will seek to change a social,
organizational, or legislative policy. The proposal may also involve
advocacy for the amelioration of a social problem. The purpose of this
assignment is to thoughtfully and thoroughly plan how you will advocate
changing a social problem or policy that is of interest to you.
The policy practice/advocacy can take whatever
form you wish and can be on any level: agency, community, state, or
federal. You will submit a prospectus (3–4 pages) that describes the
problem that is being addressed and the expected advocacy activities.
You are expected to carry out the activities planned in this proposal
and will present on your actions and outcomes in the Week 10 Final
Project assignment.
Be specific when describing the social problem or policy you would like to change and address the following:
The prospectus will need to be well researched and written using APA guidelines. Data should come from at least five sources.
Make sure that your assertions are supported by appropriate research and reputable resources.
