Compile a proposal that develops, evaluates or modifies the hypothetical implementation of this change in a real-world setting. Describe in detail the process for determining the need for the new program, the evaluation, or the modification of this program. Explain the proposed solution to the problem, gap, or need for this hypothetical proposal.

How has mental illness contributed to homelessness?

The research proposal will be based on the problem identified at a human/social service organization.

The organization selected can be one in which you are currently employed, an agency that you have an interest in, or where you intend to someday seek employment.

In your paper,

• Select an existing or hypothetical Human Services organization/agency program.
• Compile a proposal that develops, evaluates or modifies the hypothetical implementation of this change in a real-world setting.
• Describe in detail the process for determining the need for the new program, the evaluation, or the modification of this program.
• Explain the proposed solution to the problem, gap, or need for this hypothetical proposal.
• Select a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods design for the proposal.
• Explain in detail as to why this methodology and design is most appropriate for the proposed change (i.e., develop, evaluate, or modify a program).
• Create a hypothetical research proposal to a grant funding organization or an organization where the evaluation of programs is part of your job description.
• Address the problem that was identified including the evidence that supports this problem.
