Public Health Systems Case Study
For this assignment, you will analyze the case study you selected in this week’s studies.
Essential features of a case study include the following:
- Nature of the Problem: Statement of the issue of concern, disparities in outreach services to be addressed, and the significance of the problem.
- Stakeholders and Stakeholder Groups: Concerned organizations and groups. Include the dominant values and interests of stakeholders, as well as the common concerns and visions shared among them.
- Alternative Solutions: The primary (2–3) interventions surfacing as candidates for change. Include the strengths and weaknesses of the criteria for judging priorities.
- Primary Optimal Solution: Essential programmatic and practice elements that could lead to success. Is there a replication of study in other communities?
- Reflection: The advantages and disadvantages facing potential initiatives designed to develop, implement, or assess the proposed solution.
Instructions

Your case study analysis will be graded on how well you demonstrate the following:
- Describe alternative solutions and interventions as candidates for adoption.
- Describe performance indicators for judging priorities.
- Discuss how a mission or vision statement was (or could have been) used to empower stakeholders.
- Describe practices that foster collaboration and decision making between diverse stakeholders.
- Describe how specific systems thinking tools can be used to accomplish a public health program’s goals and objectives.
