Dear Ms. Frankel,
I am a behavioral health therapist whom has recently relocated to Palm Beach County, however, I work in Broward County at a homeless shelter. As I have worked in my field of behavioral health over the last thirty years, I have been afforded the opportunity to serve a diverse population of people ranging from childhood through old age, whom have experiences mental health, substance use and adverse conditions in a variety of settings throughout South Florida.
Often times, individuals whom are homeless suffer from chronic issues of mental health and/or substance use disorders, medical issues, and lacking skills for independent living which has impacted individuals of all ages, including families. Often times, people believe that assisting homeless individuals is simplistic with offering shelter and employment/vocational services would be sufficient to assist with creating independence, however, this is more often than not, the case.
It has been my observation and experience that homeless individuals and families are often stricken by trauma inducing events, chronic mental health and substance use issues, untreated medical issues, and other perpetuating factors such as lacking social, employment, and independent living skills that have led to and reinforce ongoing issues with homelessness. And now, with the Coronavirus pandemic leading to loss of life, employment, and at times causing individuals whom are isolated from their family and communities, it has been observed in the South Florida area, that the increase in homelessness has been on the rise.
Homeless individuals and families are typically complex in their presenting issues, and their needs can be varied and different from one individual to the next. I am advocating for change in our community to increase funding and coordination of care to offer more individuals not only shelter, but a comprehensive plan and coordination effort to offer service delivery based on the needs of the individual. It has been often observed that individuals in need of these services often “slip through the cracks,” leading to not only the individual, but the community to be negatively impacted in a multitude of ways. Some of these individuals are known to many service providers, however, due to the lack of follow up and coordination between services providers, these individuals often repeat services multiple times with minimal benefit at best.
Your attention to this chronic issue and need in our community is much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Luanne Shave

Dear Mr. Warner,
I am writing in regard to provide help for children as well as adults who suffer from chronic illnesses such as Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and substance abuse issues. People who have an issue with this has become an ongoing issue in the DMV area. I think programs need to be put in place so that they can be around people who also suffer from the same issues as them. Our mental health is vital and should be taken care of.
Over the years working in this field of mental health I feel this group needs advocacy because this has been an area with high demand in the metropolitan area. Not only does it effect the individuals who are suffering from the illness but it has an impact on families as well as relationships with their significant others. People who suffer from mental health illnesses have a hard time building social skills and living an independent life that should be lived because of ongoing issues. It is important to advocate change for people who fall in this category.
It is important for this community to come together and put together the necessary funding that is needed to promote change. These families need more programs and counseling services for people who have to go through these every day issues. People who do receive treatment are in programs that are not beneficial for them and creates more problems down the line. Also families aren’t as knowledgeable on how to handle their loved ones who are suffering. Families also should be involved with the process as well.
Again, Thank you for taking the time to read my letter your attention is greatly needed for our community in this area.
Sincerely
Tierra Roberts

Phone: (202) 225-2836
Dear Representative Katherine M. Clark,
My name is Tonya Weaver, and I am a community counselor who, also assist with school counseling with the public-school system located in Conyers, Georgia.  I am currently pursuing my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling at Walden University.  I am writing to encourage you to cosponsor HR 431 the Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Act 2018.  This action will guarantee that children will have the opportunity to receive mental health services.
Due to recent events that is happening in our nation some kids are experiencing episodes of anxiety and depression at an alarming rate.  For this reason, there is a need for more counselors that will ensure children can receive the adequate help needed.  The Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Act is projected to provide granted funding to states to lower staffing ratios for school counselors (ACA, n.d.).  This act can be beneficial in helping to establish a productive and positive environment for children, parents, and teachers.  Additionally, this act can further help to ensure that the learning and teaching process is not hindered due to teachers being pulled away from their classrooms to address issues that are   beyond their scope of assisting.
I thank you for your unrelenting support regarding this matter.  Please consider passing the HR 431 the Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Act 2018. This act can be the framework for a healthy and successful future for the children.
Sincerely,
Tonya Weaver

Sociology homework help

Random observation
Students will conduct a random observation on a subject of their choice and submit their observation. Random observations could be conducted in any social setting such as work place, a family or friend gathering, a party, an event of a volunteer or non-profit organization, a religious or traditional ritual occasion etc. First, students are expected to read;
1) Geertz, C. (1973). Thick description, The interpretation of cultures. New York: Basic. and
2) Mills, C. W. (1959). The promise. The sociological imagination, 3-24.
Second, apply the two readings to their observations. In other words, they are expected to see the general (bigger picture) by looking at particular (the expectation is to find (indicate) as many larger social phenomena as possible, which appear to be role players in shaping the particular case you will be observing)
Third, apply “thick description” to their observations by taking Geertz’s points into consideration.
Expectations of the assignment will become clear once you read those two pieces and attend the lecture on sociological imagination.
Observations should be at least 1500 word (5 pages long), have a cover page, 1 inch margin, double space, Times New Roman 12. (APA or Chicago)

Operations Management homework help

2.      Cruise the APUS Library search tools shown in the list below.  Share in your forum post at least 3 databases, search engines, or portals that you explored. Indicate which one(s) might be the most helpful to your research.  Use this assignment to explore at least one search tool new to you.
3.   Sometimes looking at poor examples of a piece of writing can help us build better examples.  In this part of the forum, we are going to look at some research questions that are not particularly well-designed.  We’ll see why these are problematic and look at improved versions.
 
You will see a table showing questions that are identified as being problematic and then revised to be well-designed.  The problems identified in these questions are shown here:

  • Too narrow
  • Unfocused/too broad
  • Too objective
  • Too simple

 
After you have looked at the well-designed version of the questions and read the rationale for the changes, post your views on why the problematic research questions should be revised.  For example, explain why a research question that is too narrow is a problem and, at the other end of the spectrum, why a research question that is too broad is not a good idea.  Explain why being too objective could be an issue and why a question that is too simple is less than desirable.
As you address these undesirable traits, try drafting poorly designed questions from your field of study.  For instance, if your field is environmental management, a research question that is too broad might be something like this:  What are the effects of climate change?  A question that is too simple might be:   How are cities addressing issues of climate change?  Although you may not come up with examples of problematic research questions from your field for all 4 traits, do your best. Try to share at least 2 examples.
Should be at least 250 words.

Marketing homework help

TERM PROJECT Guidelines
 
Overview
 
The project is a business analysis and proposal to expand an existing or new product and/or service (from hereon, the “offering”) into the team’s assigned emerging market (EM) which the Project Group (acting as president of the business unit) will present to the class (acting as the Executive Committee of the corporation), seeking approval-in-principle to proceed. The proposal will not include an exhaustive financial justification; rather, it will apply the lessons learned in this course and seek to demonstrate the profit potential of the offering opportunity and the problems that need to be overcome in order to achieve success in penetrating the assigned EM. You have already received your team-country assignments which were made on a completely random basis.
 
Toward this end, you are to identify an offering that either currently exists in your assigned country (AC) or will be newly introduced there by you. If it is currently being marketed in your AC, make sure that the offering is either failing or has not reached its potential, so that you will be in a position to suggest strategies to improve its performance. (In other words, do not choose an offering that is already successful in your AC.)
 
With respect to weight, Phase I and Phase II are each worth 20% while Phase III is worth 60% of the entire Term Project assignment.
 
Required Steps
 
PHASE I:
 
Market Size/Potential Assessment: Begin by selecting several candidate offerings that are fit to be your focal one to market in your AC, then reduce the number to one final offering that you will work on..
a) If the offering is already being marketed there, examine its performance to ensure that it has been disappointing and that it has not reached its potential which, you have determined, certainly exists.
b) If the offering is new to your AC, again, make sure you clearly identify that there is indeed a market by doing a thorough market assessment.
 
Whichever you choose to work on, you need to calculate your selected offering’s its approximate market potential in your AC, and justify your choice fully. As you do so, think Uncle Toulmin! I and the audience will ask you to back up your choice with quantitative and qualitative evidence. You need to submit supportive diagrams, charts, numbers, etc., and of course, the bibliography of sources you have used.
 
Submission Content: Be mindful of the Toulmin method, meaning be concise and specific in your writing; edit out all repetitions and irrelevant material and have a valid evidence for all your claims. (Use your numbers, charts, what not in the Appendix for this purpose). Also be mindful of submitting a fully professional piece of work with proper grammar and proper citation of others’ work. Use the APA Style Guidelines for proper citations; the same style that is adopted in your IB8090 course.
 
Submission Format: Maximum two pages of text excluding the Appendices and Bibliography; typed 12 font, 1.5 space; any Appendices you attach must serve a purpose and be referred to in the text, do not attach any document that does not support any claim. Be selective in your choice of Appendices; more is not necessarily better, actually too many only serves to distract the reader.
Submission Date: September 8, 2020
 
PHASE II:
 
Environment Assessment: Use your CAGE and PESTEL frameworks as well as all the other pertinent tools you have learned in IB 8090, such as the RCII, et al. to assess the CHALLENGES and OPPORTUNITIES that each of these macro-environmental factors impose upon your project of marketing your selected offering in your AC. I will post a sample (it is only a sample!) PESTEL analysis on our site with the realization that it is only one of the many ways to utilize that framework. Go online to choose the best that fits your offering and AC.
 
Submission Content: Be mindful of the Toulmin method, meaning be concise and specific in your writing; edit out all repetitions and irrelevant material and have a valid evidence for all your claims. (Use your numbers, charts, what not in the Appendix for this purpose). Also be mindful of submitting a fully professional piece of work with proper grammar and proper citation of others’ work. Use the APA Style Guidelines for proper citations; the same style that is adopted in your IB8090 course.
 
Submission Format: Maximum three pages of text excluding the Appendices and Bibliography; typed 12 font, 1.5 space; any Appendices you attach must serve a purpose and be referred to in the text, do not attach any document that does not support any claim. Be selective in your choice of Appendices; more is not necessarily better, actually too many only serves to distract the reader.
Submission Date: September 18, 2020
 
PHASE III:
 
Marketing Strategy: In this section, you are to describe the basic elements of your proposed entry and marketing strategy. Most of what you do in this phase will be informed by the work you complete in the previous two phases as well as the topics covered in Chp. 18 of the Hill book, my power points and lectures on marketing. Below is the general outline to follow. Details will be filled in under the subheadings as we continue to cover the elements of marketing strategy.
 
A. Marketing Goals
B. Value proposition and STP
C. Product/Service Strategy (Cover standardization vs. adaptation in this context.)
D. Pricing Strategy (Cover standardization vs. adaptation in this context)
E. Advertising and Promotion Strategy (Cover standardization vs. adaptation in this context)
F. Distribution and Logistics Strategy (Cover standardization vs. adaptation in this context)
 
 
 
Submission Content: Be mindful of the Toulmin method, meaning be concise and specific in your writing; edit out all repetitions and irrelevant material and have a valid evidence for all your claims. (Use your numbers, charts, what not in the Appendix for this purpose). Also be mindful of submitting a fully professional piece of work with proper grammar and proper citation of others’ work. Use the APA Style Guidelines for proper citations; the same style that is adopted in your IB8090 course.
 
Submission Format: Maximum five pages of text excluding the Appendices and Bibliography; typed 12 font, 1.5 space; any Appendices you attach must serve a purpose and be referred to in the text, do not attach any document that does not support any claim. Be selective in your choice of Appendices; more is not necessarily better, actually too many only serves to distract the reader.
Submission Date: October 6, 2020

Accounting homework help

For the final project, you will be expected to locate the financial statements of a company and perform a trend and ratio analysis of those statements using all the concepts you have learned in the course.
Formatting and length guidelines:
You should use APA (American Psychological Association) guidelines for formatting the title page (make sure you give your paper a meaningful title like “Financial Analysis of XYZ company”), references, in-text citations and subheads. Some (free) helpful sites on how to do APA style citations are on the PBSC library website: http://palmbeachstate.libguides.com/apa
Your paper should be at least 6 to 8 pages long, plus a title page and a list of references.
You should use MS Word format, double-spacing,1 inch margins all the way around, page numbers on every page except for the title page and 12 point Times New Roman font.
Correct spelling, grammar and punctuation are expected. You are also expected to write formally at a collegiate level.
Research guidelines:
Go to http://finance.yahoo.com. The instructions that follow refer to how to locate the information in Yahoo but you may choose to use Hoover’s through the PBSC library website (if you are unsure how to locate and search within Hoover’s, please contact library support from the library website) or obtain the financials directly from the company.
Search for the company you wish to analyze. If you choose a publicly traded company, their financials will be listed in Yahoo Finance and Hoover’s. If you choose a private company, you must obtain their financials directly from them and submit the financials as appendices to your final project.
On the bottom left hand corner of the company’s page on Yahoo Finance is a section called “Financials”. There should be three links — Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow. If the company you picked does not have one of those or does not have three years’ worth of data for each of those, then pick another company.
You should have at least two sources other than the textbooks in the class. These sources can be websites, newspaper or journal articles or books. Don’t forget to cite the source of your financials (Yahoo Finance or otherwise). You may use any legitimate source (i.e. National Enquirer is not acceptable but NY Times is).
Writing guidelines:
Your paper should have the following sections using the subheads indicated below. Each section should be at least 1 page:
Introduction: In this section, introduce the company you have selected and include basic background information about the size and type of company, locations and products.
Income Statement Analysis: In this section, answer the following for the trend analysis: What is the total revenue, total costs of revenue and net income for each year? How have these numbers changed over the three years and what could be some reasons why these numbers have changed the way they have? In addition, pick at least one appropriate (for this statement) ratio or financial in addition to what is provided and calculate that and explain it. See the section on ratio analysis below for ideas.
Balance Sheet Analysis: In this section, answer the following for the trend analysis: What are the total assets, liabilities and shareholder equity for each year? How have these numbers changed over the three years and what could be some reasons why these numbers have changed the way they have? In addition, pick at least one appropriate (for this statement) ratio or financial in addition to what is provided and calculate that and explain it. See the section on ratio analysis below for ideas.
Cash Flow Analysis: In this section, answer the following for the trend analysis: What are the total cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as well as the change in in cash and cash equivalents for each year? How have these numbers changed over the three years and what could be some reasons why these numbers have changed the way they have? In addition, pick at least one appropriate (for this statement) ratio or financial in addition to what is provided and calculate that and explain it. See the section on ratio analysis below for ideas.
Conclusion: In this section, answer the following: What are the most important things you have discovered in your analysis? What are some conclusions you reached? What are the highlights of your paper?
Ratio Analysis: In addition to the trend analysis above, it is customary to also analyze ratios. Use one of the analysis below to analyze ratios:
Beta: A measure of risk that is usually published and not calculated by you (A beta greater than 1 suggests that the company is more volatile/risky than the market)
Current ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities (A current ratio greater than 1 means the company has enough assets to cover all current liabilities should the need arise)
Quick ratio = (Current Assets – Inventory)/Current Liabilities (When you are dealing with a company that carries a lot of inventory, a quick ratio is a better indicator than a current ratio because it acknowledges that inventory is not typically liquid).
Profit Margin = Net Income/Sales (Represents how much of each dollar in sales remains after all costs are covered)
Return on Equity = Net income/Total equity (Represents the return for all holders of equity in that company)
EBIT Return on Assets = EBIT/Total assets (Represents the pre-tax return on the total net investment in the firm from operations or alternatively, how efficiently management has used assets)
Debt-equity ratio = Total debt/Total equity (Represents the long term solvency or financial leverage in that company)

Management homework help

The objective of the final research project is for you to experiment in applying the concepts and methods learned in class to a real world problem. You may choose any problem that interests you; for example, you may conduct a marketing research study to test a new product/service concept, or conduct a research study to offer recommendations to existing products and services. Either way, the problem should be relevant to a business or governmental organization and should look like a professionally crafted proposal for work to be done.
 
Guidelines for the Proposal Project:
When selecting a project, make sure you have a clear understanding of the research problem(s) at hand, a realization of the organizational constraints for dealing with such a problem (including time and budgetary restrictions), and an understanding of how the information provided by your research will facilitate decision making.

  1. Background Section: DESCRIBE the problem in detail, making sure you showcase your knowledge of the issue. Identify the information needed to address the research problem. Make sure this section identifies and explains the issue in detail, citing external sources to justify the research idea. I STRONGLY suggest you include some tables or background DATA in this section to support your research idea.
  2. Methodology Section: Choose a research design and justify its choice (e.g., survey, experiment, focus group, or combination of methods).  This again should be written out IN DETAIL.  Why the path you are choosing?  What are the drawbacks and benefits? (HINT: Do not just say “qualitative” or “quantitative” – which type, how will you conduct it, what other strategies will be used, WHO will do it?  Where?  When?  Timeline…etc. Develop the data collection method(s). This should include a sampling plan (who will you talk to and WHY THAT GROUP?) and instrument design (e.g., questionnaire or interview/focus group guide).
  3. Limitations Section: What are the problems you foresee in this research and how do you plan to address them?
