Government agencies often partner with the private sector to address community needs. This assignment provides an opportunity for you to view the process from multiple perspectives. In this case, suppose the government has released a request for proposals from the private sector to address the community need you identified in your Community Needs Assessment assignment. For-profit businesses and nonprofit agencies are encouraged to apply. You will develop a proposal from each of these models for program development.
Then, taking the government reviewer’s perspective, you will determine which proposal seems to best fit the government’s perspective in meeting this community needs. This will allow you to critique the proposals for their general potential for success and specifically in relation to the diversity and inclusion of special populations.
Instructions
For this assignment, can someone provide assistance writing two proposals for new programs and an appraisal of each proposal from a government agency perspective.
• One proposal will be a program with a for-profit business model.
• One proposal will be a program with a nonprofit organization model.
Each new program proposal should be 3–5 pages and present an initiative to address the need presented from your Week 3 community needs assessment (The week 3 assignment is attached). Each proposal should highlight key components of the community needs assessment that supports the need for the new program and how the new program addresses this need. Each proposal should include an appropriate strategy for program evaluation and address issues of diversity and inclusion.
The appraisal should be a 2–3 page synopsis and critique of each of the two programs, including how well each addresses the social problem, how well it meets the community need for diverse populations, and the ethical considerations of a government agency in contracting or in funding the proposal.
All of this work should be supported by the required course readings and other credible sources.
To successfully complete this assignment, you will need to address the following:
• Nonprofit Proposal:
o Design a program for a nonprofit organization to address your identified community need from the Week 3 assignment.
o Identify a type of program evaluation that would be appropriate for a nonprofit organization’s program.
• For-Profit Proposal:
o Design a program for a for-profit business to address your identified community need.
o Identify a type of program evaluation that would be appropriate for a for-profit business’s program.
• Appraisal:
o Complete an appraisal comparing and contrasting the two programs from a government perspective.
o Critique how well the programs address the social problem.
o Examine how well the programs address issues of diversity and inclusion.
o Explain ethical considerations of government funding or contracting in relation to each proposal.
