As a human services leader, you are aware, through direct or indirect work, of a government agency’s unique context of practice. Developing a program within a government agency presents its unique challenges and resources.

 This program should address the social problem and unmet community needs you identified in the Unit 5 assignment. Utilizing your needs assessment information, you will provide a rationale for the need for this community program and describe how it will meet this need.

Since good program design comes with strong program evaluation, you will also determine an appropriate program evaluation strategy for your program. The government program that you, as a civil servant, designed must address issues of diversity and inclusion and maintain ethical standards. To further validate and support your proposal, you will use reputable sources.
