Development and Infleunce of Public Policy

In the field, you will encounter policies that affect groups of people or even whole populations. It will be incumbent upon you to objectively evaluate these affects.

For this assignment, you will select a policy that lies at the center of your analysis in this course.

Select one of the following socially charged policies:

• Economic and budgetary 
• Health care 
• Welfare and Social Security
• Education
• Environmental and energy 
• Foreign policy and homeland security 

Your supervisor has asked you to make a presentation to the task force examining the policy that you intend to analyze. You will work on this presentation throughout the course.

Prepare a 15- to 20-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation in which you critique the policy in terms of justice and security. The first slide needs to contain the title of your presentation. The second slide should introduce the potential stakeholders. The rest of the slides should answer the following:

• How did the policy develop?
• Money
• Message
• Momentum
• How has it evolved?
• What are some alternatives?
• What is influencing the discussion around this policy?
• What are the security issues associated with this policy?

Format your presentation to ensure that the slides only contain essential information and as little text as possible. Do not design a slide made up of long bullet points. Your speaker notes convey the details you would give if you were presenting.

• For help, consult the guide on how to create speaker notes from Microsoft®.

Include comprehensive speaker notes.

Cite at least 2 peer-reviewed or similar references to support your assignment.

Include a slide with APA-formatted references.
