a. Title
b. Table of contents
c. Aims section/project summary: Develop a two-page aims section/project summary which provides a brief but comprehensive overview of your program. Refer to our class discussion and follow the outline closely.
d. Literature Review: The written review of literature (also called Background) presents an argument that justifies your choice of program and the way you have chosen to address it. Begin the review with the most general aspects of your topic (public problem, agenda, intervention, etc.) and gradually narrow it until it implies the intent of the public program. Define any specialized terms as you introduce them. Provide the general context for the proposed program. This can be done in terms of a general overview of the field, with a description of a classic study or studies, on the basis of history of the field, grounded in a theory to be tested, or with other context setting methods.
e. Your program hypothesis should be included in the Aims section.

g. Needs Assessment: Devise a plan for how you will assess the need in your community (St. Thomas, St. John, St. Croix or Water Island) for this program. Who will you assess? How? When? This is your plan for conducting a needs assessment.
h. Justification or need for the program: significance of the program, why it is important and impact you can expect. This is really a background section which provides a solid foundation for your program.
