Assignment:
Kingdon’s three-streams approach offers guidance on how policy change occurs. The problem, policy, and politics streams provide the context on what is involved in the policy-making process.
For this assignment, you will assume the role of a policy analyst. You need to conduct research on a particular public health disparity and inform policy makers of the problem. Using Kingdon’s three-streams approach, you need to suggest a policy option to solve the problem.
Using the module readings, Argosy University online library resources, the Internet, and other resources, research disparities in public health. Then complete the following:
- Identify a public health disparity.
- Write a problem statement to address this specific health disparity.
- Propose a solution for policy makers to solve the problem. You can create a policy, or you may use a current policy as long as it relates to the public health topic you described in your problem statement.
- Describe the politics that may impact the problem. Support your proposed solutions and answers with appropriate references.
Be sure to apply Kingdon’s three-streams approach to the solution you propose.
Your answer must be in 200 to 300 words, typed, double-spaced, Times New Roman font (size 12), one-inch margins on all sides, APA format.
