[SOLVED] Policy Brief
Students are to write a policy brief based on the Meza family study at the end of the syllabus. The policy brief is a document which outlines the rationale for choosing a particular policy alternative or course of action in a current policy debate. Although you have been provided the case study, students are expected to conduct research to justify your recommendations (minimum of three references). The 6 – 8 page policy brief should be written in APA style and include the following: Title Page (not included in page count) Executive summary Context and importance of the policy issue Critique of policy issue(s) Policy recommendations Appendices (if appropriate) Sources consulted or recommended/References (not included in page count) Please follow the assignment rubric: Rubric Assignment 3.docx A helpful resource for Policy Briefs: The Art and Craft of Policy Briefs (Links to an external site.)
