As per the week four discussion and assignment, imagine that

liaison to a community group mobilizing to make change. You

department has come into the community and implemented

perceived of by the community as being offensive and hurtful.
For example, many older members of the community remember

women of color to be sterilized as a way to decrease unplanned
pregnancy. (See Krase, 2014 (Links to an external site.) for a

given the community’s work to date. In your post:
· Outline the primary program components that you will spend
the money on.
· Create a budget that explains how the funding will be used.
· Devise a strategy for how you will present the plan to the
community. Consider how you will respond to their potential
concerns.
