Appraisal of Proposals

Instructions

For this assignment, write 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 present an initiative to address the need presented from your Week 3 assignment (One significant unmet need in my local community is the lack of appropriate services and support for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who come into contact with the criminal justice system). Each proposal should highlight key components of the community needs assessment that support 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 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 so
