You have learned many of the basic elements of a chemical dependency center in today’s world. Now it is time to write a report that will be used in a final proposal for a new treatment center. Consider what you have already learned, and continue your research about addiction and recovery theories, services, and continuum of care to design the most effective treatment center possible. Based on current issues that you have learned about, consider the changes you believe could be made to improve this evolving system.

Start with some of the following questions:

  • What do you think the future best practices might look like?
  • How might you care for the professionals in a field while they are caring for their clients?
  • What kind of professional development will the staff need to make this center a success? How might this improve services to those in need?

Given what you know and what your group discovered and discussed about modern treatment facilities, use your imagination to come up with a futuristic model of an addiction and recovery services center. Be sure to address the following information in a proposal of 4–5 pages:

Objective

  • Type of facility
  • Need for the facility
  • Purpose of the facility
  • Current issues or challenges the facility is designed to address
  • Mission statement of the facility
  • Philosophy or theories practiced within the facility

Logistics

  • Populations to be served by the facility
  • Treatments used in the facility
  • Physical appearance of the facility
  • Type of staff
  • Professional development that will be available to staff
  • Additional important details

Agenda building is often the first step in your policy practice tasks. Building a solid agenda may well determine the success of the development of a policy proposal and may also determine your success in placing an issue in front of a decision maker.

For this Assignment, you evaluate the accuracy of the Kingdon model of policymaking.

Submit a 2- to 3-page paper evaluating the accuracy of the Kingdon model in policymaking. Address the following:

  • Discuss the three streams Kingdon has identified where problems originate, and provide your opinion on which one most accurately reflects how and why policies come about.
  • Discuss the assertion that certain kinds of issues receive preferential treatment in problem solution and political streams.
  • Discuss tactics that policy practitioners use within each of the three streams to increase the odds that a specific issue will be placed on decision agendas.

Make sure that your assertions are supported by appropriate research and reputable resources

Effectively meeting the needs of all students can seem daunting, whether one is a new or veteran teacher. Differentiated instruction is what makes it possible, but the important thing to remember is that it takes time to become skilled in the area of differentiation. Sousa and Tomlinson (2012) suggest starting small by selecting just one strategy that you may use consistently over the course of a marking period, for example, and utilizing your colleagues in helping to support your plans for creating a brain-friendly learning environment.
