In the United States, there are many resources available for people to obtain public health information.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (https://www.cdc.gov/) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (https://www.hrsa.gov/index.html) are two examples of resources that can be used to research different public health topics and data.

Select a high-income country that you consider comparable to the United States in terms of economic status.

You can use the World Bank’s list of high-income countries to get started. Scroll down to see the list: http://data.worldbank.org/income-level/high-income

For this assignment:

1. Discuss the country you selected and why it is comparable to the United States (Example: United Kingdom).
2. Select a vulnerable population in that country (Example: children). Why did you select that population? What resources are available to them?
3. What resources are available to this population in the United States?
4. Compare and analysze the resources in both countries.
5. Your paper should be 2–3 pages in length, excluding the title and reference page.
6. Use current APA formatting to style your paper and to cite your sources. Integrate your sources into the paragraphs. Use internal citations pointing to evidence in the literature and supporting your ideas. You will need to include a reference page listing those sources.

Throughout this course and your program, you will be utilizing APA formatting.

APA formatting is a standardized way of formatting your papers and acknowledging original material such as information from journals, new articles, websites, textbooks, and more. It is important to become familiar with the standards required in APA formatting. You are given an APA pocket guide available to you as an e-text. In addition, WCU offers a wealth of writing resources that include essential information on APA. Please visit the Writing Resources area under the Student Resources tab for further information. Take some time to review APA formatting and requirements this week.
