Assignment: Argument for the change in community

Description

Thesis: The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs needs to Adapt their healthcare management policies due to the rise in veteran suicides and delayed health care.

The academic essay Assignment in this unit will be a written, cohesive argument for the change in your community or workplace that you have been writing about throughout the course. The Assignment should take the form of a persuasive academic essay, in which you will provide reliable evidence from at least four sources to support the argument for change that you are advocating. You will also need to address a counter-argument or misconception about your topic within the essay, as the ability to do so is a key component of a strong argument.
