You must FULLY answer the following questions: I live in Brooklyn, New York.
1. How does your community (i.e., the state in which you live) fail to meet the needs of clients with mental health issues after they complete probation or time in prison?
2. What solutions can you provide to improve the situation?
KEEP IN MIND:
A policy paper (or whitepaper) is one that proposes a specific answer or solution to a policy-relevant question or issue with the majority of its focus and analysis on the answers, rather than on the history or statement of the problem.
Policy papers are presented to those who make decisions (e.g., a state senator, top government official, CEO, or the governor); therefore, you can presume your reader has some working knowledge of the problem to be addressed.
