Final Project “New program for immigrants and Refugees”

Imagine you are a policymaker or city council member and are actively
involved in improving the lives of the vulnerable.  Via the first two
written assignments, you have already selected one vulnerable
population, which is in need of a new program or service within your
community. You will research and design a presentation (APA style Paper
or PowerPoint Presentation), which you will present at the next city
meeting to advocate for your special population group.
The Final Project should demonstrate an understanding of the reading
assignments, class discussions, as well as your own research and
application of new knowledge. It must contain the following elements
below and be re-written in your own words (you are welcome to refer to
your previous assignments for guidance, but do not copy and paste from
them):

  1. A description of why this population group is vulnerable and in desperate need for help within your community.
  2. Identification of the health service needs of this special population.
  3. In order to support your claims and opinions, cite statistical
    data obtained from the county health department, state health
    department, and/or other organizations and agencies.

Design a model program or service, which is needed to improve the lives
of your chosen population within your community. Remember to design a
new program not currently existent within your community.  In your
design, include the following:

  1. A description of the continuum of care level (preventive,
    treatment, or long-term care) your program or service fall into and how
    it meets the needs of your selected group.  
  2. An analysis of the delivery modes of health services to be included.
  3. A discussion regarding the multidisciplinary approach that is incorporated into the program.
  4. An analysis of the role of legal and ethical requirements in the design of the program.
  5. Identification of a minimum of two community
    agencies/organizations you would like to partner with in some way(s) in
    order to implement this program/service.  Explain why you would like to
    partner with these organizations and how can they help or benefit you
    with the implementation of your program/service.
  6. Analysis of the current funding sources for provision of health
    services to this special population. Discuss the use of integrated
    funding. Based on your research, identify a minimum of two funding
    sources that may potentially provide monetary sponsorship for your
    program or service.  Explain why these entities would be likely funding
    sources.

Be detailed and convincing in describing the above elements, as you are
attempting to win as much support from the attending members as
possible.
