population in your potential concentration area or community.
The proposal must demonstrate graduate school level writing and critical analysis. The final version of
your proposal is due in Unit 15
For this assignment you will submit Part One of your proposal, detailing a health problem that is
prevalent within your selected group and demonstrating your research of health promotion strategies for
addressing this specific health problem. At this point you already developed in your discussions the core ideas of the topic contained on this assignment. You will use the same information, but it won’t be a copy and paste exercise. The purpose is that you enhance your ideas with the comments and outcomes of the weekly discussions and previous evaluation.
