Target Audience[WLO: 2] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3]

In your Week 2 Justifying Community Needs assignment, you determined your community’s greatest needs. This week’s assignment will build on that effort by defining the population currently most affected by this community shortcoming and who will likely benefit when the disparity is resolved. The goal is that with these two key areas known, you can begin creating your action plans for the two greatest needs of your community which are due in Week 4. The CDC’s CDC Community Health Improvement Navigator: Find Interventions That WorkLinks to an external site. https://archive.cdc.gov/www_cdc_gov/chinav/index.htmlpage may be of assistance.

For example, if you determine that safe public recreational parks are your community’s greatest shortcoming, the population most impacted would be children/youth (ages under 18). Once determined, you would then provide the demographic information on the number of people in your community within that age group. You would also want to highlight if there are socioeconomic status (SES) factors, environmental factors, and so forth that you must consider with this population and the need. The following summary example could follow your provided data.

“Within Hopkins Park, IL, SES would be a significant factor in that more than 20% of the population is below the poverty line. Additionally, from an environmental standpoint, the community lacks sidewalks. Finally, it must also be acknowledged that approximately 20% of the population is under the age of 18, which requires consideration of how many would benefit. As part of a proposed action plan, it must be known that due to poverty issues in the community, the park needs to be centrally located so transportation is not required. It must also be noted that without sidewalks, the park should be located near an area where community members are already driving (e.g., K–12 school). It must also be considered that while children are the primary beneficiaries of a recreational park, research needs to be conducted on the social and mental benefits adults and seniors experience with a greenspace within the community. From a budgetary perspective, the city is very low on funding, so grants would need to be considered. Given the poverty and notoriety of the community nationally, grants and perhaps internet-based fundraising are likely the best options. Finally, the plan would need to be considered prudent by community stakeholders. For the city mayor, the greatest leverage point would be … For the Chief of Police, the greatest leverage point would be …, and so forth.”

Pairing the provided explanation with target population data on Hopkins Park, IL begins the process of formulating an action plan. You will do the same. You are addressing not only who would most benefit from the greatest disparity in the community but are also using critical thought to determine how such a project needs to be addressed for the maximum benefit and highest likelihood of success. Note that a community park is far from the greatest need of the example community of Hopkins Park, Illinois.

  • State the greatest identified need of your community.
  • Identify the target population most impacted by this need.
  • List the number and gender ratios of individuals in your community that comprise this population.
  • List any extenuating circumstances associated with this population.
  • Present a section summary of the population and the need to begin the outlining process for your action plan.

  • Identify the target population most impacted by this need.
  • List the number and gender ratios of individuals in your community that comprise this population.
  • List any extenuating circumstances associated with this population.
  • Present a section summary of the population and the need to begin the outlining process for your action plan.
  • Summarize your paper with a cumulative summary of the approximate approach needed to reach each target audience listed and how you can best approach community stakeholders.
