Homework: Issues in my community is teen deaths- Gang Violence
Instructions
Reflect upon your own membership and issues that exist in your community. Your task is to determine what community issue could be the topic for your Signature Homework, a proposed community prevention or promotion program. Reflect upon core values of community psychology and how they may also be applied to your selected topic.
Begin by identifying five important problems or issues facing your selected community.
Next, assess each topic briefly using the core values of community psychology that you previously learned about. Which of the values do you think are relevant to each issue and why?
Then, evaluate how each issue involves factors at individual, microsystem, organizational, locality, and macrosystem levels.
After reflecting upon your analysis of these key issues, determine which issue will be the focus for your community program. Prepare a summary explaining your topic and why it merits further investigation.
