The high-profile approach is the best method for opening an adolescent group home. It involves educating stakeholders about the benefits of group homes before opening to address concerns and decrease opposition.

Students will identify an advocacy issue affecting children, connect it to a protective factor, and describe their advocacy position. They will then apply a sociological theory and concepts from the NAEYC Code of Ethics and standards on family partnerships to develop an action plan using evidence-based programs and strategies. The plan must involve families and be presented in a final written paper or PowerPoint and a narrated video presentation.

Issues to encounter in the strategic plan
Foster children who depend on the society for their living are mostly not given the care that they deserve. Foster children mostly do not grow and develop normally like children who are raised by their biological parents. They face so many problems and that is what this strategic plan wishes to address. Some of the specific issues to encounter include; child abuse, being unwanted, and generally being neglected. Most of these children face poverty, unnecessary disconnections from family and also limited access to opportunities. These children face the above problems because they do not have anyone to represent them in the political world, they have no voice therefore no one can hear them, and they are minors in the society so no one really cares about them.
The change needed to address these issues
The change needed to address the above issues to eliminate the problems and challenges faced by foster children so that they can access opportunities and create policies that will help them transition in and from foster care effectively. Annie E. Casey Foundation is an effective foundation that has helped most foster children through practice, policy and evaluation tools that seek to improve their opportunities and assets as well as help to build their personal and financial assets by engaging them in self-advocacy and leadership opportunities.
Change theory and how to apply it
Kurt Lewin change theory is applicable in this strategic plan. It is a three-step model which include unfreeze, change, and freeze. Lewin’s model ensures that there is a radical change, minimized disruption of the structure’s operations, and permanent change (Cummings et al., 2016). Unfreezing means making people unlearn their bad ways and open to change their way of doing their activities for a positive change. The second step is change. This is the implementation phase. When people have opened up their minds for a change, transition begins and it might take some time. The last step is freeze. This is cementing the change. Once a change has been made, it should be made permanent. This theory will be applied by changing the activities of foster care, policies applied in foster care and the society’s perception of foster children. It will begin with presenting the issues to be changed to the concerned parties and persuading them to open up for a change in the way foster children are handled. Secondly, once every party is open-minded about the change, then change will be implemented. For example, it is important to create jobs for foster children as they exit foster care and live by their own. Lastly, the change will be made permanent by putting it to practice.

Reentry services can help reduce recidivism for low-income adults in urban areas by providing job training, housing assistance, mental health/substance abuse treatment, and education. Key challenges include lack of affordable housing, limited jobs/education, and inadequate access to services. Effective reentry services address these challenges through job training, health services, housing assistance, and case management to support successful community reintegration.
ServiceLearningProjectjordanfordham_02
1. Students in a public health class participated in a service learning project educating economically disadvantaged communities about bed bugs. The project allowed students to apply their knowledge and skills while helping the community.
2. The students visited the local housing authority and presented information on the biology, transmission, epidemiology, prevention and control of bed bugs. Attendance was low but those who participated found it informative and asked insightful questions.
3. While the presentation provided useful information, future projects could improve by providing follow up support and coordinating with local exterminators to help address the issue more comprehensively in the community.
Core principles for engaging young people in community change

Abstract
Environmental health is both a public health and social justice issue. This paper will describe how environmental health is both a public health and social injustice issue and some of the environmental injustices in the United States. It will also explain the functions of environmental health movements in the US. Finally, the paper will describe some of the intervention opportunities in curbing environmental injustices including health education, advocacy, policy, leadership opportunities, and community focus and give my future leadership role as far as environmental health is concerned.

Section 1: Topic Description
The topic that I chose is Environmental Health. This topic is a public health issue because the environment in which we live in shapes our health every moment of every day. Our health can be affected by what we eat, where we live, and how we interact with the world around us. That is where environmental health professionals, programs and policies, all come into play. Environmental health is a large field in public health because of the numerous ways exterior factors can impact how we live, grow and, even eat. These factors concern how we address our natural environment like sanitation and clean water, but they are also the consequences of our actions as human beings (Krometis et al, 2017).
Environmental Health is also a social justice issue because all the conversations about protecting habitats, mitigating climate change and recycling are not just about saving and protecting the earth, they are more about the struggle for protecting and providing basic human rights to good health. Every human being is entitled to quality air, clean water, and sanitation (Marmot, 2017).
Section 2: Social Injustice
Two Environmental Social Injustices
One major environmental social injustice is the disproportional placing of dangerous waste amenities in poor and largely ethnic and racial minority localities. Research shows that there are ethnic and racial discrepancies in the locations of dangerous waste across the United States. As a result of these injustices people living in such an environment have developed diseases like cancer.
Another social injustice is the environmental influence on healthy eating, physical activity, and obesity in ethnic and racial minority communities with low income. The principal concern here is the deprivation amplification such that in locations where have little individual resources, the local amenities that help people to live healthily, are poorer than those in non-socially and non-impoverished deprived places. Research has shown that t.

- Supportive housing provides permanent affordable housing combined with flexible voluntary services to help people live stable lives and reduce cycling between homelessness, incarceration, hospitals and shelters.
- Research shows supportive housing reduces recidivism and costs to criminal justice systems while improving health outcomes for tenants. It is an effective approach for people leaving incarceration who often face homelessness and other challenges.
- The document advocates for investing in supportive housing as part of comprehensive reentry efforts to improve lives and more efficiently use public resources.

British migrants to_nz
The document summarizes two studies about British migrants moving to New Zealand. The first was a qualitative analysis of online forums that found migration is a process with logistical and psychological challenges. The forums provided informational and emotional support. The second study found that having family support improves well-being and lowers stress, while extended family left behind causes difficulty. Support from partner/accompanying family was important for better psychological outcomes during the pre-departure period.
