National costs* (direct and indirect if possible) *Depending on the topic, you may be able to find cost of illness studies that quantify the costs on a per person and/or national level.

If you cannot find cost data estimates, explain in words the various types of costs/burdens experienced on an individual and a national (societal) level on account of this issue/problem.

To summarize these reports be sure to include: i. The policy/program being examined ii. The methodology (include: the sample size and characteristics, outcome variable(s) examined, statistical tests used) iii. The study result (numerical/statistical) iv. The study conclusion (did the examined policy/program approach positively impact your issue? What is the recommendation moving forward?) v. Report whether or not the program/policy study addressed any disparities either directly (i.e. was the aim to intentionally close disparities?)

or indirectly (i.e. study notes that policy made improvements across multiple demographics or breaks down impact by socioeconomic groups).

Note: many studies may not address disparities which is fine, just note in this section that this is an area the study did not touch on. Note: Summarize at least 4 policy/program studies. Different studies can examine the same policy or program. Also, you may reference a study in your international context section that you also want to summarize here. 3. Call to Action Given your research, what specific policy would you suggest to further combat the issue you describe in part 1. Use existing research and provide both quantitative and qualitative arguments supporting your proposed policy. Section three should be between 250 to 1,000 words.
