The HSO you work for has been tasked with addressing a pressing problem in the community being served. Please write a 68 page paper describing an agency-based intervention that addresses a problem you have identified in your community assessment paper. In your paper, please describe the intervention, including the target population, the outcomes the intervention is to achieve, and key activities and/or services of the intervention. Describe your plan for community assessment and engagement. Please use a specific intervention model and describe how it influences your choices in intervention. As an agency-based planning project, you also need to identify and thoroughly describe a human service agency that would be a good home for the intervention. If it is not the HSO you work for, what agency would be appropriate to partner with? Additionally, use the videos from sessions 4 through 9 to inform your thinking when composing your community assessment. You are not required to formally cite the videos, yet it should be apparent that you have used the information present in the videos to guide you in completing this assignment.
In addition, you will be asked to present your final project to the class during sessions 13 and 14. Your paper must be written in APA format with accurate and thorough citations. Students will give a 510 minute, presentation of their proposed intervention.
You have a $100,000 budget to develop an intervention to address an unmet need/problem you identified for a target population within your community.

Please write a 6-8 page properly formatted paper using APA (6th edition) describing an agency-based intervention that you will implement. In this paper, please describe the community-based outcomes of the intervention. The $100,000 budget should be used to help you conceptualize and scale how the interventions will be used to assist the clients.
