  1. \n

    Consider framing the public health problem in your priority population from a disparity\/equity perspective.  Numbers speak volumes (but be careful not to sensationalize the problem using emotionally charged language);<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    While you are not required to include primary data in reviewing the literature\/establishing the need for a program, if you have access to them (e.g., an agency\u2019s records), feel free to add them.  An effective needs assessment often includes both primary\/secondary data on both the distribution and determinants of a health problem in a population;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Please remember that you are not proposing an actual program at this point.  The purpose of this assignment\/exercise is to illustrate to your reader that there is an actual need\/rationale to address a health problem in a community\u2014your purpose statement should sum this up nicely;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    A major concern among decision-makers (particularly grant-makers) is the duplication of services.  Thus, you should consider the existing community health programming prioritizing both your public health problem and population\/community.  In essence, your eventual proposed program should address unmet need in a unique way (to avoid duplication of services).  This will bolster the rationale in your eventual grant proposal and make your program unique both in terms of addressing gaps in services\/programming and community need, and how you propose to address these needs<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n

    Clearly includes national, state, city, and local data relevant to the health status\/public health problem (illustrating the distribution of the health problem).<\/span>
    <\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Describes the priority population with key demographic statistics from appropriate sources (e.g., community characteristics that are relevant and connected to the public health problem).<\/span>
    <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Appropriate assessment of the priority population performed (identifying secondary data on the most important and most changeable determinants from a community health perspective) ; gives unbiased description of the population\u2019s actual needs; needs can be likely address using community health approaches. Socially just approaches are used in the exploration and explanation of the data.<\/span>

    Clearly describes existing community services and service gaps for health issue. Clearly highlights at least 3 relevant programming studies that relate to the topic and\/or potential populations.<\/span>
    <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Includes a purpose statement which is the final sentence (or two) of the needs assessment. The statement provides clear and logical parameters regarding whom and what a potential program might address (but does not give specific details about programming). The purpose statement exhibits cultural responsiveness.<\/span>
