Your proposed solution must be realistic and workable.

Please remember to incorporate research from at least THREE credible sources to support your points.

Your email or letter will be 400-600 words and MUST follow the APA guidelines.

At the end of your email/letter please remember to include your references.

Below are some guidelines to follow:

• Begin with your purpose: tell your reader why you are writing. Consider how you will introduce yourself to the reader and how to frame your message.
• The following sections might be helpful for the rest of your message:
• Background. What situation led to the writing of this email/letter?
• What is your personal connection to the problem?
• Problem. How will you present the problem to your reader? Will it help to situate the problem in a larger social, economic or political context? (Possible research area!)
• Proposed solution. What are you asking for? Propose a specific, realistic solution. (Possible research area!)
• Benefits. Who will benefit from the change? How will the reader (and their organization) benefit from the change? (Possible research area!)
• Challenges or obstacles. What is standing in the way of your proposed solution? What objections will the reader have? Addressing these obstacles strengthens the persuasiveness of your message.
• Conclusion. Here you might want to summarize your key points. How do you want to end the email? How do you want the reader to respond?
