Public and Private Partnerships Volunteers are a vital resource available to help communities and households recover from an incident. Businesses can also offer various forms of support for a community that has recently suffered damages. In addition to protecting their economic interests, businesses are able to increase their visibility in the community by offering support and helping the rebuilding efforts for community resiliency. These public and private partnerships may provide emergency managers with extra resources for executing response and recovery operations. However, inherent in fostering these partnerships are the difficulties in establishing agreements, ensuring coordinated approaches for emergency management, and enforcing standards for public and private partnership involvement. For this Discussion, review the Learning Resources for this week. Reflect on how volunteers, businesses, and public entities might assist with community recovery efforts. Consider the challenges in managing efforts for community recovery. By Day 4 Post a brief description of your community. Then describe two specific examples of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Finally, explain the potential impact of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Be specific and provide examples. Be sure to use the Learning Resources and current literature to support your response. Phillips, B. D. (2015). Disaster recovery (2nd ed.).

MBA 6301, Business Ethics 1
Course Learning Outcomes for Unit II
Upon completion of this unit, students should be able to:
2. Assess the ethical issues facing business leaders.
2.1 Explain the role of corporate reputation in an organization.
6. Analyze the influence of corporate culture, including leadership, power,
and motivation, on business ethics in the workplace.
6.1 Explain the concept of stakeholders and stakeholder trust.
6.2 Define power, urgency, and legitimacy with respect to
stakeholder theory.
Unit Lesson
How do companies determine which stakeholders are more important than
others? Which group of stakeholders should the company be accountable to?
Every company more than likely has customers, is part of a community, and
publicly traded companies have hundreds if not thousands of stockholders;
therefore, not all of them can be of equal importance. Stakeholder theory
attempts to answer this question by applying three attributes to groups of
stakeholders; power, legitimacy, and urgency.
As defined by Stanwick and Stanwick (2014), “Power is the extent to which the
organization can influence or impose its will on the stakeholder group” (p. 42).
When an organization has the power to make a difference or to change a
pattern in society, we would expect that they would. For example, the March of
Dimes was started in 1938 by
President Franklin D.
Roosevelt to combat polio,
which he was diagnosed with
in 1921, and had left him
unable to move his legs. After
many years, its original goal of
eliminating polio was
accomplished, and the
organization then had to make
a decision to disband the
organization or dedicate its
resources to a new mission.
The March of Dimes decided
to change their focus to
prevention of birth defects and
infant mortality. Since they had
such a successful
accomplishment with
combatting polio, it was seen
that they would be a success in
this mission also. In 1976 the organization changed its name to the March of
Dimes Birth Defects Foundation. By using their power of influence and after
President Franklin Roosevelt, himself a victim of
polio, meets with March of Dimes executive Basil
O'Connor (March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundationi, ca.
1944)

Lesson 4 when disaster strikes, what can we do
Charitable organizations have a comparative advantage over governments and individuals in providing disaster relief for three reasons: 1) Their decentralized structure allows them to efficiently connect donors who want to help with those in need. 2) They operate in a competitive environment where effective organizations are rewarded with more donations. 3) Centuries of experience providing community-based disaster assistance in the U.S. have strengthened their ability to respond quickly and effectively.
Application Role and Value of EvaluationThe United Nations, the.docx
Application: Role and Value of Evaluation
The United Nations, the American Red Cross, and other international disaster response organizations worked together to care for the trauma survivors after a series of four devastating hurricanes smashed into Haiti one after another, before communities had time to regroup from the previous ones. Then the 2010 massive earthquake struck the island. The poverty in Haiti complicated responder effectiveness and may have compounded survivor trauma because residents had few resources. While back to back disasters may make it difficult to evaluate crisis management plans, they point to the importance of learning what worked and what went wrong.
Once a disaster has occurred, the evaluation process includes a review of what was effective in the response as well as what was not effective. Learning and improved insights from a disaster can require making strategic changes in an organization or community. Last week you encountered new procedures for disaster transportation recovery, such as design-build, that can change the manner in which communities recover from disasters. Organizations can take a lesson from this change in thinking and creativity and look at innovative practices for strategic planning and recovery. Therefore, evaluation is a key element in crisis management planning and recovery.

Unit IVProject Disaster Recovery The purpose for this Unit IV Project is to describe how emergency management has changed over the last 20 years in your community with both preparation and technological advancements. Be sure to identify your local community. Compare those changes over the years to that of the post-Katrina era. For this assignment, you are to take photographs of your local community (e.g., governmental or nongovernmental organizations, railyards, firehouses, police departments) so that you can show what your area has done to address the issue of a disaster. Using what you learned about your community and what you learned about past disasters from Units III and IV, write a report concerning your community’s disaster organization plans and addresses the points listed below. Explain how either governmental or nongovernmental organizations were or are able to use technology in order to plan for future disasters.
Explain who conducted these efforts from a governmental or nongovernmental agency and the vulnerabilities they faced in their community, and include the role these individuals or groups played with mitigating, responding, and/or recovering from the risk.
Examine the causes and recovery efforts of at least one past disaster that either occurred in your community or that you have researched.
Explain the causes and contributing factors of this disaster. Examine the vulnerability in a larger context. Considering past disasters, either in your community or surrounding areas, do you feel that your community has done enough to prevent future disasters? Why, or why not? What recommendations can you offer to your community to address future risks? Consider future tasks that are associated with the governmental or nongovernmental agency, and use that information to help you explain how your community may be vulnerable to future disasters and emergencies.
Discuss the documentation (e.g., policies, procedures) in place to mitigate the future hazards. Your paper should be a minimum of four pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages (title and reference pages do not count toward meeting the minimum page requirement).
You are required to use a minimum of three outside sources for your assignment; at least one should be from the Waldorf Online Library. You should also use your textbook as a source. All sources, including the textbook, must be cited and referenced according to APA Style guidelines. Additionally, include at least four visual aids/images that support your content. Clear captions and citations should be inserted into the same Word document. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including a title page and in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. However, no abstract is required.

Nonprofits respond as intergovernmental organizations post katrina
The document discusses how nonprofits and intergovernmental agencies responded after Hurricane Katrina:
- Disasters require an intergovernmental response across state, local, and federal agencies as well as collaboration with nonprofits, who provide critical on-the-ground services.
- After Katrina, FEMA partnered with over 400 organizations, relying on their experience to quickly provide shelter and food. The Red Cross sheltered 14,000 people while faith groups and local nonprofits sheltered another 12,000.
- The response highlighted the importance of adaptive, decision-making, and contextual theories in disaster management, as well as challenges coordinating thousands of agencies under legal structures like the National Response

This document discusses building community resilience through partnerships. It outlines FEMA's Whole Community concept which aims to engage citizens in emergency planning and preparedness to increase resilience. The concept recognizes that communities have unique needs, capabilities and social networks. By understanding these factors and collaborating with existing community groups and organizations, emergency managers can better support communities to prepare for disasters and recover more quickly. However, barriers like limited funding make it challenging to implement meaningful community engagement as envisioned by the Whole Community approach.

Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, .docx
Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, can wreak havoc on communities and often have disproportionate effects on marginalized populations. For example, during Hurricane Katrina, many people in low-income neighborhoods, like the Ninth Ward, were forced to “ride out” the storm because they did not have access to reliable transportation in order to evacuate. Furthermore, residents in this neighborhood and many others either lost their homes and or sustained significant property damage, due to a neglected levee system that failed. After disasters like Hurricane Katrina, human services organizations are integral to helping communities recover by providing basic needs (e.g., food, shelter) to community members and helping them secure much needed government aid. However, there is often a greater need for resources than there are available resources, which is just one of many ethical dilemmas that may arise.
In this Discussion, you will assume the role of a supervisor in a human services organization in your community after a disaster has occurred. You will identify ethical and cultural issues that may arise, consider how you would address those issues, and explore how you would mobilize human services employees to help the community recover.
To Prepare
Consider how certain populations may be disproportionately affected by natural disasters and how advanced human services practitioners can respond to help these populations.
Review the Learning Resources on cultural considerations for human services delivery. Think about how to provide culturally sensitive services to diverse populations adversely affected by natural disasters.
Review the
Ethical
Standards for Human Services Professionals
. Identify ethical issues that may arise in the aftermath of a disaster.
Find one article from an academically appropriate source that focuses on helping communities in the aftermath of a disaster.
Post
a brief description of a natural disaster that has occurred or could occur in your community and a specific human services organization that would be integral in the aftermath of the disaster. Assume you are a supervisor in the organization. Explain the ethical and cultural issues you would need to address to help the community as a whole respond to the disaster. Then, explain what you would ask employees to do to help the community recover after the disaster and why. Be specific.
Support your post with specific NOHS ethical standards and at least one article from an academically appropriate source that you found in your own search.

Week 9 Social Change and Policy Advocacy in Human ServicesP
Week 9: Social Change and Policy Advocacy in Human Services
Policy advocacy is one of the key roles of human services professionals. It differs from advocating for clients in that it looks to inform those who are responsible for policy formation, such as politicians and leaders of large-scale organizations. Whether at a national, regional, or state level, policy advocacy efforts will have broad implications for how and when human services are delivered. In today’s world of diminished resources, policy advocacy can be the difference between being funded and not having the funds needed to help your clients. By engaging in opportunities with programs and organizations that receive federal or state funding, you may further support your advocacy effects and gain greater access to necessary resources. By watching the media presentation in the Weekly Resources you will get a feeling about how community organizations can engage in advocacy.
Chahana Fisher has applied for a part-time position in this Community Center in the role of advocacy support person. In this role she is going to identify the needs for advocacy for the populations served by the Center and draft information that will be used in advocacy for the Community Center. For this Discussion, review Chapter 7, "Visit The New Harbor Community" in the Weekly Resources. Then explore the Community Center in the Weekly Resources and read the description of the Community Center and the people who work there currently.
With these thoughts in mind:
By Day 4
Post
a brief description of what you see as possible advocacy needs for this Community Center. Examples may be the needs for youth programming, immigrant language skills support, or recreational facilities for latchkey children after school. Explain how this Community Center could be involved in policy advocacy. Then, from the perspective of the community center and one organization from your area of interest, explain one benefit and one limitation of engaging in policy advocacy. Be specific and provide examples.

The document discusses the opportunities and challenges for civil society organizations (CSOs) during an economic crisis. It outlines five key points:
1. CSOs face a double challenge of meeting increased social needs while confronting reduced public and private funding. They must balance efficiency and mission.
2. CSOs are vulnerable due to financial weakness, difficulties with long-term planning, and lack of collective advocacy.
3. The impact varies depending on an organization's size, activities, and clients. Smaller groups face higher demand with same resources.
4. CSOs should improve efficiency through specialization and evaluate quality, while also increasing transparency and collective advocacy to raise their profile.
5Assume the role of emergency manager in your local community. Select.docx
Assume the role of emergency manager in your local community. Select a disaster that has or could impact Phoenix, AZ. If this disaster has previously impacted your community, research the disaster to identify what happened, what factors contributed to declaring it a disaster, how the residents of the community were affected, the extent of the damage, and what mitigation plans were in place prior to the disaster? If your community has not experienced this disaster, consider researching other areas that have faced a similar disaster. It is helpful to recognize how other communities prepared and addressed the disaster.
As the emergency manager, develop long-term community recovery plans to support the response and recovery process in the aftermath of the disaster. Your plans must include the following (1,250-1,500 words):
A description of the disaster that threatens your community.

Private Healthcare Organization Performance Public Management Reform.docx
Private organizations differ from public and non-profit organizations in their goals and environments. Implementing private sector management practices in public organizations faces challenges and brings the need for adaptation. One challenge is that private sector goals of profit-maximization differ from public service goals. However, some private practices could improve efficiency and accountability in public organizations, such as adopting a results-oriented approach to better serve customers.
1 Social Responsibility and Sustainability Similarities and .docx
This document provides an overview of corporate social responsibility and sustainability.

The document discusses theories like systems theory and complexity theory that relate to sustainability. It provides examples of companies taking CSR and sustainability actions, such as Merck & Co.'s drug donations and Interface Carpet's environmental initiatives. It emphasizes the importance of considering not just profits but also people and the planet for long-term business accountability and viability.
Mission 1, Mission 2
Norm DeLisle discusses how organizations can lose focus on their core mission (Mission 1) over time as they devote more resources to sustaining operations and bureaucracy (Mission 2). This tension between Mission 1 and Mission 2 is what causes organizations to age. Some strategies discussed to help organizations stay focused on their Mission 1 include creating separate mission statements for Mission 1 and Mission 2, having board and staff directly engage in Mission 1 activities, and finding ways for all staff to understand Mission 1 beyond abstract terms. Without consciously addressing this tension, organizations risk drifting away from their original purpose over time.

The Community _and the Corporation
A strong relationship benefits both business and its community. Communities look to businesses for civic leadership and for help in coping with local problems, while businesses expect to be treated in fair and supportive ways by the community. As companies expand their operations, they develop a wider set of community relationships. Community relations programs, including corporate giving, are an important way for a business to express its commitment to corporate citizenship.
This chapter focuses on these key learning objectives:
• Defining a community, and understanding the interdependencies between companies and the communities in which they operate.
• Analyzing why it is in the interest of business to respond to community problems and needs.
• Knowing the major responsibilities of community relations managers.
• Examining how different forms of corporate giving contribute to building strong relationships between businesses and communities.
• Evaluating how companies can direct their giving strategically, to further their own business objectives.
• Analyzing how collaborative partnerships between businesses and communities can address today’s pressing social problems. Whole Foods Market is a natural foods retailer with stores in many communities in North America and the United Kingdom. Founded in 1980 in Austin, Texas, the company believes that its business “is intimately tied to the neighborhood and larger community that we serve and in which we live.” Whole Foods donates 5 percent of its net profit to charitable causes and operates two foundations focused on animal welfare and rural poverty. Each of the company’s 184 stores hosts a community day three times a year, with 5 percent of the day’s total sales revenue contributed to a worthy local nonprofit organization. Whole Foods also gives its employees 20 paid community service hours for each 2,000 hours of work (about half a week per year). Employees have been involved in a wide range of service projects, including organizing blood donation drives, raising money for breast cancer research, developing community gardens, renovating housing, and delivering “meals on wheels.”1

Emergency recovery means to engage in efforts to return disaster-imp.docx
Emergency recovery means to engage in efforts to return disaster-impacted areas back to functioning and, to the greatest appreciable extent, conditions that existed before the emergency occurred in the first place. There are a number of entities involved in emergency recovery including nonprofit organizations, private insurance companies, and myriad state and local governments. One of the most common criticisms of emergency recovery is that local agencies lose control of recovery to the hands of the federal government, or that the federal recovery infrastructure doesn’t do enough to help local governments.
It is important to remember that even in the post-9/11 era, the federal government usually does not step in to oversee or coordinate disaster recovery efforts unless the local and state governments ask for such help. It is the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process that govern how and when federal recovery programs intervene.
For this Discussion, consider the utility of the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process related to local disaster response. You also consider whether federal emergency recovery programs are over-used by the states and adequately provide for recovery from catastrophic events.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post
a brief explanation of the utility of the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process related to local disaster response. Explain whether you think either or both are useful in the scheme of responding to local disasters. Defend your position. Then explain whether federal emergency recovery programs in general are over-used by the states and whether you think they are adequate in providing for recovery from catastrophic events and justify your position.

Chapter 2 emergency stakeholders
Emergency management involves many stakeholders at different levels who influence policy decisions. At the local level, the main stakeholder groups are social groups like households and community organizations, economic groups like businesses, and political groups including local government agencies. These stakeholders have varying degrees of power and interests relating to emergency management. It is important for emergency managers to understand the different stakeholders and involve them throughout the emergency management process.

Module 6 Reading Assignment

The Disciplines of Emergency Management: Recovery
Recovery often begins in the initial hours and days following a disaster event and can continue for months or years. Recovery involves decisions and actions relative to rebuilding homes; replacing property; resuming employment; restoring businesses; and permanently repairing and rebuilding infrastructure. Because the recovery function has such long lasting impacts and usually high costs, the participants in the process are numerous, and include all levels of government, the business community, political leadership, community activists and individuals. An effective recovery brings all players together to plan, finance and implement a recovery strategy that will rebuild the disaster-impacted area safer and more secure as quickly as possible.
Recovery activities begin immediately after a Presidential declaration as the agencies of the Federal Government collaborate with the State in the impacted area in coordinating the implementation of recovery programs and the delivery of recovery services. The Federal government plays the largest role in providing the technical and financial support for recovery, with FEMA obligating an annual average of $2.88 billion on public assistance projects for major disaster declarations (with an average of $58 million per major disaster declaration) and $153 million in individual assistance.
Assessment 3 Disaster Recovery Plan.docx

Unit2Disc1
Who Makes Public Policy?
In Chapter 1 of the Simon
Public Policy
text, we see that in a governing entity (whether a government, for-profit, or non-profit organization),
values
are fundamental to the understanding public policy. Since Simon mainly focuses on the U.S. federal or state government as the principal actor in the making of public policy, we should note that the governing bodies of for-profit and non-profit organizations are influenced by the same ideas and practices. In other words,
governance
by any organization may serve to implement public policy. But, in these different governing bodies, who are the actors actually making public policy? Can we say it is people in a community, officials in program agencies, or governing officials? Can we envision a role for human services professionals?
Drawing on Internet sources, identify one example of social change initiative promoting progress and one example of degeneration that can occur. Note in your discussion who the principal actors are in developing public policy in response to either progressive social change or degenerative social change.
Learning Components
This activity will help you achieve the following learning components:
Describe the process of identifying principle actors related to policy development within a specific community.
Unit2Disc2
Social Change Experience
What is your experience with social change?
Drawing on your readings on progress and degeneration, and considering D. B. Bury's and Benedict Morel's perspectives, describe your personal experience in defining social needs for change either progressively or in degeneration (social worsening) as a professional in your community.
Include the following in your discussion:
Identify the problem.
Explain how the problem was first identified.
Describe the population or individuals affected.
Identify what or who was responsible for responding to the need for change.
Explain whether the community, business, non-profit, or government agency was expected to implement social change policy.
Use a minimum of two references (and their associated citations in your discussion narrative), applying APA style.
Learning Components
This activity will help you achieve the following learning components:
Differentiate between progressive and regressive social change.
Explore the various roles that business, non-profit, and/or government actors play in the implementation of public policy.

Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, .docx
Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, can wreak havoc on communities and often have disproportionate effects on marginalized populations. For example, during Hurricane Katrina, many people in low-income neighborhoods, like the Ninth Ward, were forced to “ride out” the storm because they did not have access to reliable transportation in order to evacuate. Furthermore, residents in this neighborhood and many others either lost their homes and or sustained significant property damage, due to a neglected levee system that failed. After disasters like Hurricane Katrina, human services organizations are integral to helping communities recover by providing basic needs (e.g., food, shelter) to community members and helping them secure much needed government aid. However, there is often a greater need for resources than there are available resources, which is just one of many ethical dilemmas that may arise.
In this Discussion, you will assume the role of a supervisor in a human services organization in your community after a disaster has occurred. You will identify ethical and cultural issues that may arise, consider how you would address those issues, and explore how you would mobilize human services employees to help the community recover.
To Prepare
Consider how certain populations may be disproportionately affected by natural disasters and how advanced human services practitioners can respond to help these populations.
Review the Learning Resources on cultural considerations for human services delivery. Think about how to provide culturally sensitive services to diverse populations adversely affected by natural disasters.

Week 9 Social Change and Policy Advocacy in Human ServicesP
Week 9: Social Change and Policy Advocacy in Human Services
Policy advocacy is one of the key roles of human services professionals. It differs from advocating for clients in that it looks to inform those who are responsible for policy formation, such as politicians and leaders of large-scale organizations. Whether at a national, regional, or state level, policy advocacy efforts will have broad implications for how and when human services are delivered. In today’s world of diminished resources, policy advocacy can be the difference between being funded and not having the funds needed to help your clients. By engaging in opportunities with programs and organizations that receive federal or state funding, you may further support your advocacy effects and gain greater access to necessary resources. By watching the media presentation in the Weekly Resources you will get a feeling about how community organizations can engage in advocacy.
Chahana Fisher has applied for a part-time position in this Community Center in the role of advocacy support person. In this role she is going to identify the needs for advocacy for the populations served by the Center and draft information that will be used in advocacy for the Community Center. For this Discussion, review Chapter 7, "Visit The New Harbor Community" in the Weekly Resources. Then explore the Community Center in the Weekly Resources and read the description of the Community Center and the people who work there currently.
With these thoughts in mind:
By Day 4
Post
a brief description of what you see as possible advocacy needs for this Community Center. Examples may be the needs for youth programming, immigrant language skills support, or recreational facilities for latchkey children after school. Explain how this Community Center could be involved in policy advocacy. Then, from the perspective of the community center and one organization from your area of interest, explain one benefit and one limitation of engaging in policy advocacy. Be specific and provide examples.

The document discusses the opportunities and challenges for civil society organizations (CSOs) during an economic crisis. It outlines five key points:
1. CSOs face a double challenge of meeting increased social needs while confronting reduced public and private funding. They must balance efficiency and mission.
2. CSOs are vulnerable due to financial weakness, difficulties with long-term planning, and lack of collective advocacy.
3. The impact varies depending on an organization's size, activities, and clients. Smaller groups face higher demand with same resources.
4. CSOs should improve efficiency through specialization and evaluate quality, while also increasing transparency and collective advocacy to raise their profile.

It is the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process that govern how and when federal recovery programs intervene.
For this Discussion, consider the utility of the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process related to local disaster response. You also consider whether federal emergency recovery programs are over-used by the states and adequately provide for recovery from catastrophic events.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post
a brief explanation of the utility of the Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process related to local disaster response. Explain whether you think either or both are useful in the scheme of responding to local disasters. Defend your position. Then explain whether federal emergency recovery programs in general are over-used by the states and whether you think they are adequate in providing for recovery from catastrophic events and justify your position.
Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.

.
The Community And The Corporation
The document discusses the relationship between businesses and the communities in which they operate. It analyzes why it is in the interest of businesses to respond to community problems and needs, such as avoiding public backlash and maintaining a "license to operate." It also examines how businesses can build strong relationships with communities through various forms of corporate engagement like economic development initiatives, crime reduction programs, and disaster relief efforts. Finally, it evaluates how companies can direct their citizenship activities strategically to further their own business objectives.
Chapter 2 emergency stakeholders
Emergency management involves many stakeholders at different levels who influence policy decisions. At the local level, the main stakeholder groups are social groups like households and community organizations, economic groups like businesses, and political groups including local government agencies. These stakeholders have varying degrees of power and interests relating to emergency management. It is important for emergency managers to understand the different stakeholders and involve them throughout the emergency management process.

Module 6 Reading Assignment
Haddow, G., Bullock, J., & Coppola, D. (2011). Introduction to emergency management. Burlington: Elsevier. Chapter 7.
The Disciplines of Emergency Management: Recovery
Recovery often begins in the initial hours and days following a disaster event and can continue for months or years. Recovery involves decisions and actions relative to rebuilding homes; replacing property; resuming employment; restoring businesses; and permanently repairing and rebuilding infrastructure. Because the recovery function has such long lasting impacts and usually high costs, the participants in the process are numerous, and include all levels of government, the business community, political leadership, community activists and individuals. An effective recovery brings all players together to plan, finance and implement a recovery strategy that will rebuild the disaster-impacted area safer and more secure as quickly as possible.
Recovery activities begin immediately after a Presidential declaration as the agencies of the Federal Government collaborate with the State in the impacted area in coordinating the implementation of recovery programs and the delivery of recovery services. The Federal government plays the largest role in providing the technical and financial support for recovery, with FEMA obligating an annual average of $2.88 billion on public assistance projects for major disaster declarations (with an average of $58 million per major disaster declaration) and $153 million in individual assistance.
Assessment 3 Disaster Recovery Plan.docx
Develop a disaster recovery plan for the Vila Health community using the MAP-IT framework. The plan aims to lessen health disparities and improve access to services after a disaster. Present the 8-10 slide plan with audio to city officials and disaster relief. Consider community needs, resources, policies, and strategies to overcome barriers. The plan implementation timeline tracks progress towards meeting Healthy People 2020 goals through collaboration and ensuring equitable, culturally sensitive care for all.

Unit2Disc1
Who Makes Public Policy?
In Chapter 1 of the Simon
Public Policy
text, we see that in a governing entity (whether a government, for-profit, or non-profit organization),
values
are fundamental to the understanding public policy. Since Simon mainly focuses on the U.S. federal or state government as the principal actor in the making of public policy, we should note that the governing bodies of for-profit and non-profit organizations are influenced by the same ideas and practices. In other words,
governance
by any organization may serve to implement public policy. But, in these different governing bodies, who are the actors actually making public policy? Can we say it is people in a community, officials in program agencies, or governing officials? Can we envision a role for human services professionals?
Drawing on Internet sources, identify one example of social change initiative promoting progress and one example of degeneration that can occur. Note in your discussion who the principal actors are in developing public policy in response to either progressive social change or degenerative social change.
Learning Components
This activity will help you achieve the following learning components:
Describe the process of identifying principle actors related to policy development within a specific community.
Unit2Disc2
Social Change Experience
What is your experience with social change?
Drawing on your readings on progress and degeneration, and considering D. B. Bury's and Benedict Morel's perspectives, describe your personal experience in defining social needs for change either progressively or in degeneration (social worsening) as a professional in your community.
Include the following in your discussion:
Identify the problem.
Explain how the problem was first identified.
Describe the population or individuals affected.
Identify what or who was responsible for responding to the need for change.
Explain whether the community, business, non-profit, or government agency was expected to implement social change policy.
Use a minimum of two references (and their associated citations in your discussion narrative), applying APA style.
Learning Components
This activity will help you achieve the following learning components:
Differentiate between progressive and regressive social change.
Explore the various roles that business, non-profit, and/or government actors play in the implementation of public policy.
Identify a variety of resources used to identify a community problem.

PURPOSE To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the li.docx
PURPOSE:
To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the literary reading and writing processes. You’ll analyze a piece of fiction using the fundamental premises and rules of interpretation outlined by a school of criticism. In this first paper you will focus on
intrinsic analysis,
doing a close study of the various literary elements, language and patterns that create meaning in the text. While the two critical lenses differ considerably, both function on the premise that analysis of the “text and the text and alone” best reveals meaning. (Psychoanalytic criticism does include several components that emphasize
extrinsic analysis
, but several of its modes of interpretation subscribe to or allow for intrinsic analysis.)
ASSIGNMENT:
In a 4-5 page, MLA-formatted paper, analyze one of the short stories selected for the paper using either New Criticism or Psychoanalytic Criticism. (Below-page 2- you will find a list of short stories on which you can base this first paper. I will post a list of additional stories and their attending summaries in another document that goes with this prompt.) Your paper should include direct quotes that support your examples, a clear and thoughtful thesis (you’ll find examples of an intro/thesis for both schools of criticisms in the theory folders on Blackboard – the New Critical example is already posted).

:
“
One child is chosen from the population to serve as a sacrifice that will allow the rest of the city to live in peace and plenty. The child is placed in a small, windowless room without any amenities and is completely cut off from the rest of society except for the short visits from those who come to view the child. When they learn of the child’s existence, the people of Omelas battle with the knowledge of The child, who suffers for them, and the guilt they feel as a result of their knowledge.
Red Card
:
“What if the government gave everybody one free pass to shoot one person,

Scenario:
Shelley Jones has just been elected as president of the Circular Club of Auburn, Kansas, and she has been asked to suggest a new fundraising activity for the club. After a considerable amount of research, Shelley proposed the Circular Club sponsor a professional rodeo. In her presentation to the club, Shelley recommends the fundraiser become an annual activity with the following goals:
Continue to grow each year
Give back to the community
Provide the club a presence in the community
Shelley's goal in the first year is to have an activity that would become an "annual community event" and would break even the first year and raise $5,000 the following year. In addition, based on the experience of other communities, Shelley believed a rodeo could grow in popularity so the club would eventually earn an average of $20,000 annually.
A rodeo committee was formed. Shelley contacted the world's oldest and largest rodeo-sanctioning agency to apply to sponsor a professional rodeo. The sanctioning agency requires a rodeo to consist of the following five events: Bareback Riding, Bronco Riding, Steer Wrestling, Bull Riding, and Calf Roping, Team Roping and Women's Barrels. Prize money in the amount of $3,000 would be paid to winners in each of the seven events. Members of the rodeo committee contracted with RJ Cattle Company, a livestock contractor on the rodeo circuit, to provide bucking stock, fencing, and chutes. Realizing costs associated with the rodeo were tremendous and ticket sales would probably not be sufficient to cover the costs, the rodeo committee sent letters to local businesses soliciting contributions in exchange for various sponsorships. Exhibiting Sponsorships are $1,000 to exhibit products or services, while Major Sponsorships are $600, and Chute Sponsorships are $500 to have the name of the sponsor's business on one of the six bucking chutes. For a contribution of $100, individual sponsors will be included in a Friends of Rodeo list found in the rodeo programs.
A local youth group will be contacted to provide concessions to the public and divide the profits with the Circular Club. The Auburn Circular Club Pro Rodeo Roundup will be held on June 1, 2, and 3. The cost of an adult ticket is set at $8 in advance or $10 at the gate; the cost of a ticket for a child 12 or younger is set at $6 in .

Discussion:
(
Which theory speaks to your advanced nursing practice?)
One of the theorists that speaks to my nursing practice is Madeleine Leininger’s Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality otherwise known as transcultural nursing. The theory of transcultural nursing promotes understanding of both the universally held and common understandings of care among humans and the culture-specific caring beliefs and behaviors that define any particular caring context of interaction (Butts & Rich, 2018, p. 572). Culture is the specific pattern of behavior that distinguishes any society from others and gives meaning to human expressions of care (McFarland & Wehbe-Alamah, 2015). This theory is intended to view the patient as a whole being. As an APN, this theory will allow me to be considerate of my patient’s needs. In turn, they will feel respected and listened to and hopefully this will promote a long-lasting relationship.
Leininger discovered that inadequate knowledge of cultural factors represented a missing link in her ability to provide care (Nelson, 2006). As a future APN, I recognize the need and sometimes missing component of culture care nursing in our women’s health practice today. For example, in South Dakota we have a lot of Native American reservations. Since we see a number of Native American women, I think it would be beneficial for me to better understand their culture and beliefs related to healthcare in order to offer these women expert care.
Also, with Leininger’s transcultural nursing theory she believes seeing the patient as a whole and to appreciate that the patient represents a complex constellation of physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual, social, environmental, and economic factors that interact and contribute to the patient’s unique wholeness and influence their ability to participate in health promotion, health maintenance, and disease modifying activities (McFarland & Eipperle, 2008). As an APN, by viewing the patient as a whole and recognizing their diversities, I will provide better patient care in which caring will be the main focus and recognizing that their different beliefs and cultures play a part in their decision making to the different treatment options.

CASE STUDY AND BULLET POINTS:
Andrew Rockfish and the co- owners have been looking for a competitive edge in the North American market that will translate well to the other divisions. A recent meeting of the owners resulted in the decision to target business organizations with custom services. This decision stems from recent feedback from customers that revealed that for GDD to anticipate the needs of their clients, suppliers and service vendors, the Company needed to decrease the turnaround time in delivery and the mailing of small packages and letters. Rockfish has decided to offer “boutique” services to its business customers. Catering to businesses will allow GDD to provide personal services that Fed Ex and UPS cannot offer. Customizing the services will allow GDD to increase prices while creating a new niche.

Discussion: Opinion Leaders
This page automatically marks posts as read as you scroll.
Adjust automatic marking as read setting
I chose to further my education in hopes of providing better patient care and education. I want to be seen as an influence and a primary healthcare provider. My goal is to provide specialized, high-leveled care to patients with different backgrounds.
An opinion leader is someone who has strong influence within a work place, giving of their time and experience, and creates strategies to help change an initiative. An opinion leader earns their role after much experience and expertise. Others look to them for advice and new information (Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, & O’Grady, 2014).
When problems arise in a work environment, employees will look towards opinion leaders and others who will lead them through the stressors and crises. In order to be successful as an opinion leader, staff must be committed to serving the organization and devote time for teaching. Patient and staff safety should always be at the forefront. Not one person knows all the answers, but once we live through various experiences our abilities and competence improve and widen (Kai Tiaki, 2014).
Communication skills can improve opinion leaders abilities. It is important that communication allows everyone’s voice to be heard, in an open, non-combative manner. In order for piers and other staff to have a positive trusting relationship with the opinion leader, they must feel as though they are being heard and also guided in difficult situations (Pollard & Wild, 2014).
By the end of the summer, I am hoping my schedule allows me to become a preceptor for new graduates. I view that role as being an opinion leader for an individual, which would progress to a small group. I would love the opportunity to mold new fellows with everything I have learned so far as a postpartum nurse. When a newer nurse comes to me for advice, I want them to feel safe. My goal is never to talk down to someone making him or her feel inadequate for coming to me for help in the first place. If I do not know how to solve the issue I have been made aware of, I seek guidance from another senior nurse. I feel as though a good opinion leader wants others to seek their guidance instead of possibly making a mistake.

Discussion: Team Dynamics
As healthcare providers, we should aim to provide safe and quality care to patients while working with other members of the interdisciplinary team. However, teamwork is not always easy. I would like to explicate some of the characteristics of the interdisciplinary team that can prove to be beneficial to teamwork, as well as those that can hinder the teamwork process.
I feel the most important aspect of teamwork is proper communication. Without communication, information cannot be conveyed to other members of the team. According to Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) “team building requires considerable attention to interpersonal and communication skills” (p. 23). Members of the team must also share respect for one another and act in a professional manner through team interactions. Also, I think it is important for each team member to know the role they play within the team. In a study where a Learning Collaborative Program was initiated to help providers learn how to work in a team, they discovered the “teams needed opportunities to first learn about each other’s scope of practice and skill sets, develop a common language for communication, and understand how their scope of practice can be leveraged to improve team functioning and patient care” (Kotecha et al., 2015, p. 228).
There is always another side to every story. There are some conditions that make teamwork in healthcare very difficult. Teamwork can be even more complicated when healthcare providers must make ethical decisions. The members of the interdisciplinary team have different personalities and perspectives that can affect teamwork. Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, and O’Grady (2014) postulate that “these differing positions can lead to creative and collaborative decision making or to a breakdown in communication and lack of problem solving” (p. 329). Other aspects identified by Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) that can impact teamwork are psychological demands (of the job), social support (from colleagues and superiors), effort-reward balance, and healthcare providers’ experience with patients (p. 19). These aspects can impact teamwork in a positive or negative way.

Business Report: Poor Employee Performance
Employees form a very important part of the organization because they directly contribute towards the performance of the organization (Weightman, 2008). The employees of New World
Solution
s Ltd (NWSL) have been found to be performing poorly because they rarely meet the objectives that have set for them. For this reason, the company is facing problems in the market because its competitiveness is very low. It has been unable to meet its targets and this is having a negative impact on its general performance. Keeping in mind that the employees are the driving force of any organization, their poor performance implies that the organization cannot perform as expected. It is, therefore, necessary for corrective measures to be put in place to ensure that employees are able to perform as expected of them by the organization as well as other stakeholders.
The performance of employees is greatly affected by motivation and this implies that the organization should find out the different reasons as to why employees are not motivated and solve the
problem
. It is important for NWSL to take a look at the situation and reveal the different factors that are affecting the situation. This will reveal the problem and.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Public and Private PartnershipsVolunteers are a vital resource ava.docx
- 1. Public and Private Partnerships Volunteers are a vital resource available to help communities and households recover from an incident. Businesses can also offer various forms of support for a community that has recently suffered damages. In addition to protecting their economic interests, businesses are able to increase their visibility in the community by offering support and helping the rebuilding efforts for community resiliency. These public and private partnerships may provide emergency managers with extra resources for executing response and recovery operations. However, inherent in fostering these partnerships are the difficulties in establishing agreements, ensuring coordinated approaches for emergency management, and enforcing standards for public and private partnership involvement. For this Discussion, review the Learning Resources for this week. Reflect on how volunteers, businesses, and public entities might assist with community recovery efforts. Consider the challenges in managing efforts for community recovery. By Day 4 Post a brief description of your community. Then describe two specific examples of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Finally, explain the potential impact of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Be specific and provide examples. Be sure to use the Learning Resources and current literature to support your response. Phillips, B. D. (2015). Disaster recovery (2nd ed.).
