Here are some ideas to get you started. Choose one to respond to for the discussion this week.

• Discuss the problem you identified and the solution you developed to address it. Were you able to present your recommendations to an actual stakeholder audience? If you did, describe the outcome. If you didn't, what prevented you?
• Discuss what you learned about advocacy as you worked on your presentation assignment in Week 9. How can you use advocacy in your ongoing professional career?
• How does your culture, background, and/or experience impact your thinking about applying social policy planning in professional contexts?
• Explain what about this week's concepts, resources, or activities is of most interest to you and your professional development. Offer some specific examples.

Please note:

• Do not create your post as a reply to the pinned post. Instead, use Yellowdig's Create option to create a new post.
• Remember to practice the use of APA style for citations and references throughout the discussion activities in this course. All information not derived from your own knowledge or experience should include an in-text citation and a reference at the end of the post to show the reader where it came from.
• Attaching an article, video, podcast, meme, et cetera, as part of your post is always a good idea, but remember that you will need to write sufficient text in the post to meet the required point total for the post. Points will not be earned for merely attaching the resource and submitting a post without any descriptive text.
