Question: Topic: Homelessness problem in San Francisco.

This week you will submit a preliminary (rough) draft of the written portion of your portfolio project as well as proof of peer review. Remember to include the following sections: introduction, symptoms, diagnosis, cure, prevention and summary.
Review the Portfolio Project description and complete as much of that as you can for your draft.

Here is the description:

Your Portfolio Project for this class is a Community Action Plan designed to alleviate or correct a public health issue in a community. Your community can be your business, school, neighborhood, town or city of residence or birth, or county.

For Option #1, your Community Action Plan will be a professional portfolio that includes a written report and a slide presentation.

Below are some useful sites in the attached file where you can find examples of the elements of an action plan.

Final Paper Instructions:

1. The final case study should include four sections (Symptoms, Diagnosis, Cure, and Prevention). Each section should be about 1 page in length. Your entire paper must be 5 pages in length, not counting the title or reference pages, which must be included.

2. You must cite and integrate at least 4 credible sources in each of the four sections of the paper. You may use readings other than the textbook to meet this requirement. The paper should be based on references to scholarly materials (rather than on introductory textbooks, popular website writings, or musings, for example) and should support your claims with evidence.

3. List the key community members or partners that you plan on contacting, with an explanation why these individuals or organizations make sense as potential partners.

4. Include a special emphasis on either the demographics of the affected population or the economic implications.

5. Include a realistic timeline for your plan. Discuss the time needed for campaigning, education, funding, building, and implementation.
in the essay you must include:

• Which populations are affected by the public health issue you have selected?

- Describe the demographics of this population in detail. How old are they?

- Where do they live?

- What is their health like currently?

• What do we already know about the population you have identified?

• Where are our gaps in knowledge?

• What are some of the possible solutions to the issue you have identified, and how would these solutions influence public health overall

Create a list of at least 10 local partners who might be willing to help you implement or develop your own Community Action Plan. Look ahead to Chapter 8 in your text for more details about how to identify stakeholders in your chosen community. Your list must include the potential partner's name, comprehensive contact information (job title, address, phone, website, and any assistants' names), and a short explanation of why you think he/she/it would be useful to your project. List why you think that particular partner might be interested in joining your effort-that is, what is the benefit to the partner in doing so?

Your partners could come from the following (don't be limited by this list):

• Government officials (state, regional, local or federal)

• Local health/public health department agent(s)

• Non-profits or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Think broadly. For example, consider national and local organizations (e.g., men's and women's organizations, schools, government-funded services, and volunteer organizations).

• Businesses. Businesses often help fund or implement community projects.

• Schools. Colleges or universities may have grants, special departments, or clubs/organizations.

• Churches or faith-based organizations
