Proposal for a specific program for older adults
Develop a proposal for a specific program for older adults and/or their families. Assume that your budget is flexible but consider real world limitations to implementing the program.
What is your theoretical and research informed rationale for the program you propose?
Who will be targeted to participate?
Who will staff the program?
What will their qualifications be?
What pre-service and in-service training will they receive?
What obstacles do you anticipate encountering with the development and implementation of the program?
How will you determine the effectiveness of the program?
How will you market the program (advertising, a logo, the name of the program, etc.)?
How will you meet the needs of diverse constituents served by the program?
This must be an original proposal and may not duplicate one prepared for another course. To make sure you cover every important topic.
I suggest you organize your paper with the following subheadings:
Goals of the Program
Factors to consider (market considerations, laws and regulations, financing)
To what extent will your program promote aging in place?
Coordinate services?
Provide new services?
Target different populations?
Integrate services with other agencies or programs
How will you finance your program?
Who benefits from the program
Who will perform the tasks, and what do tasks entail?

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
