Sample Outline for Essay about homelessness.

Problem Solving (Proposal) Model

I. Introduction:

Begin with a creative hook to generate reader interest and concern; briefly provide any relevant background information (for instance: history, special concerns, specific problems that need to be addressed or which have plagued our community for a long time and which your proposal addresses); describe the current situation; provide overview of your argument; state thesis (What exactly do you want readers to do and why?).

II. Define the Problem

What is the problem? Use cause-effect reasoning to show the true causes and effects of the problem. (i.e. What are the issues associated with mass deportation, mass incarceration, the school-to-prison pipeline, or access to higher education, etc.?).

III. Establish the need for a solution:

Describe the community, focusing on the urgency of the ongoing problems that the community has, especially those that your proposal will seek to solve; identify your primary goals and outcomes for the community.

IV. Address the perspectives of people concerned:

Describe the needs that those concerned (such as citizens, government officials, police, homeless people, workers, bosses, users of a website, students, patients, prisoners) might have. Who is affected by the issue, how are they affected, and what might their concerns be?

V. Describe your plan (whether it is an action, "solution," or strategy of resistance):

State in as much detail as necessary what you are proposing to address concerns.

VI. Explain the benefits of your solution:

Show how your solution will meet the needs and concerns identified in section IV (above) and address or solve the problem described in sections I and II. Argue convincingly in favor of your proposal. Use cause-effect reasoning to show that your proposed solution will address the causes of the problem.

VII. Acknowledge drawbacks, costs, or other objections to your solution and refute them:

Explain to those who might disagree with your proposal why your proposal will be effective and respond to potential objections.

VIII. Counterargue alternative solutions

Summarize any alternative solutions that you think could have been applied to this issue but which you have rejected in favor of your better proposal. Explain why your solution or action is the best choice of the alternative ways to move forward or progress toward change.

IX.. Conclusion:

Avoid summary. Consider, instead, one or more of these options: Describe an implementation plan, or issue a call to action urging your readers to support your solution. Re-emphasize the importance of the solution that you are proposing. Issue a heightened appeal for support. Look towards the future if action is taken. Consider including a conventional device (like your creative hook at the beginning) to frame your essay's ending (i.e. if you began with an anecdote, end with another anecdote).
