This articles’ topic will focus on for the rest of the SLP. You will use the information in the selected publication as you go through the phases of applying the PEN-3 model to develop a hypothetical health education program.

PART 1

Write a three-page paper that includes the following:

1. Provide a brief overview of the health issue among your selected group, statistics about the scope of the problem, and its implications for health.
2. Describe the Cultural Identity of the group you chose. Specifically address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within Cultural Identity applies to your group and provide examples. Use subheadings to clearly show that you have addressed each of the three factors. Support your discussion with references from scholarly and professional references (not just your opinion).
3. Reflect on the required readings, the article you choose for this assignment, and your own beliefs. Then, briefly describe how culture influences health care and what you learned that could help you effectively interact with diverse cultures in the health care setting.

Length: 3 pages, excluding the cover page and the reference list.

PART 2

Continuing with the same cultural group and health issue for the Session Long Project that you began in Module 1, write a paper to address the following:

Describe the Relationships and Expectations of the group. Specifically address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within the dimension of Relationships and Expectations applies to your group and provide examples.

Use subheadings to clearly show that you have addressed each of the three factors. Support your discussion with references from scholarly and professional references (not just your opinion).

Length: 2-3 pages (excluding the cover page and the reference list).
