Assignment 3: Select a Public Health Problem

Public service announcements (PSA) are one way in which public health practitioners seek to respond to risks to health by informing the public and altering risky behaviors. PSAs address one of the 10 essential public health services, to inform, educate, and empower people about health issues. Throughout this course, you will create a public service announcement (PSA) for a public health problem of your choice. For this assignment, you will begin working on your PSA by selecting the health problem and beginning your analysis of the issue.

Directions:

Use the readings for the module, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet to research current public health problems.

Select a public health problem for your course project.

In 3–5 pages:

  1. Analyze the current and prospective impacts of the public health problem.
  2. Explain why a PSA would be useful for minimizing the impact of the public health problem. In what way?
  3. Justify your reasoning.

Your final product will be in a Microsoft Word document, approximately 3–5 pages in length, and utilize at least 3 scholarly sources in research (beyond the textbook). Your paper should be formatted following current APA standards; written in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
