\nThe Assignment: (1- to 2-page Comparison Grid, 1-Page Analysis, and 1-page narrative) with a title page. This is an APA paper. Use 2-3 course resources and at least 2 outside resources.<\/p>\n
Part 1: Agenda Comparison Grid<\/p>\n
Use the Agenda Comparison Grid Template found in the Learning Resources and complete the Part 1: Agenda Comparison Grid based on the current\/sitting U.S. president and the previous president, and their agendas related to the population health concern you selected. Be sure to address the following:<\/p>\n
Identify and provide a brief description of the population health concern you selected.
\nExplain how each of the presidential administrations approached the issue.
\nIdentify the allocation of resources that the presidents dedicated to this issue.<\/p>\n
Part 2: Agenda Comparison Grid Analysis<\/p>\n
Using the information you recorded in Part 1: Agenda Comparison Grid on the template, complete the Part 2: Agenda Comparison Grid Analysis portion of the template, by addressing the following:<\/p>\n
Which administrative agency (like HHS, CDC, FDA, OHSA) would most likely be responsible for helping you address the healthcare issue you selected and why is this agency the most helpful for the issue?
\nHow do you think your selected healthcare issue might get on the presidential agenda? How does it stay there?
\nAn entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor helps to move the issue forward. Who would you choose to be the entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor (this can be a celebrity, a legislator, an agency director, or others) of the healthcare issue you selected and why would this person be a good entrepreneur\/ champion\/sponsor? An example is Michael J. Fox is champion for Parkinson\u2019s disease.
\nPart 3: Fact Sheet<\/p>\n
Using the information recorded on the template in Parts 1 and 2, develop a 1-page fact sheet that you could use to communicate with a policymaker\/legislator or a member of their staff for this healthcare issue. Be sure to address the following:<\/p>\n

\nAgenda Comparison Grid<\/p>\n
Population Health Concern<\/p>\n
The opioid crisis is a major public health concern in the United States. It is estimated that more than 130 people die every day from an opioid-related overdose, and that more than 2 million people suffer from opioid-related addiction.<\/p>\n
Approach<\/p>\n
The current administration has taken a number of steps to address the opioid crisis, including:<\/p>\n
Appointing a White House drug czar to coordinate the federal government’s response to the crisis
\nIncreasing funding for treatment and prevention programs
\nCracking down on illegal drug trafficking<\/p>\n
The previous administration also took steps to address the opioid crisis, including:<\/p>\n
Expanding access to naloxone, a drug that can reverse an opioid overdose
\nIncreasing funding for research on new treatments for opioid addiction<\/p>\n
Allocation of Resources<\/p>\n
The current administration has allocated $1.5 billion to address the opioid crisis. The previous administration allocated $1 billion to the crisis.
\nAgenda Comparison Grid Analysis<\/p>\n
Which administrative agency (like HHS, CDC, FDA, OHSA) would most likely be responsible for helping you address the healthcare issue you selected and why is this agency the most helpful for the issue?<\/p>\n
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the most likely administrative agency to be responsible for helping to address the opioid crisis. HHS has a number of programs and initiatives that are focused on preventing and treating addiction, including the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).<\/p>\n
How do you think your selected healthcare issue might get on the presidential agenda? How does it stay there?<\/p>\n
A healthcare issue can get on the presidential agenda through a number of ways, including:<\/p>\n
Public outcry
\nAdvocacy from interest groups
\nA crisis<\/p>\n
Once an issue is on the presidential agenda, it can stay there through a number of means, including:<\/p>\n
Presidential support
\nCongressional action
\nPublic education<\/p>\n
An entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor helps to move the issue forward. Who would you choose to be the entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor (this can be a celebrity, a legislator, an agency director, or others) of the healthcare issue you selected and why would this person be a good entrepreneur\/ champion\/sponsor?<\/p>\n
I would choose Michael J. Fox as the entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor of the opioid crisis. Fox is a well-known actor who has been open about his struggles with Parkinson’s disease. He is also a strong advocate for research and treatment for Parkinson’s disease. Fox would be a good entrepreneur\/champion\/sponsor of the opioid crisis because he is a well-known and respected figure who has personal experience with addiction.
