...Court Decision HSM 240 December 8, 2011 I chose to do my discussion on Drug Testing Program for Welfare Applicants. I disagree with the judge for stopping welfare applicants from being tested for drug use because even marijuana is a drug. To me this would be a good idea; maybe it would cut down people abusing the government. I think that all applicants who apply for any kind of assistance from the government should be tested. You have to go different doctors to try to get on disability. Now even with the different jobs you get people are doing random drug testing. Now with the economy the way it is we have more and more people on welfare than in a very long time and I think that drug testing as a part of the application is a good idea. Why would the government give anyone who is an alcoholic or on drugs food stamps? I guess they are trying to help them kill themselves because then they wouldn’t be a problem. Drugs kill many of our people every day. To me if you can get the money to do drugs, you can support your family and give them all of the necessities that they need to survive. As stated in this case, “The drug testing pilot is an opportunity to help individuals find employment and to help strengthen their families”. Now even with the different jobs you get people are doing random drug testing. If you fail a drug test, you get put on probation or fired. Then you go apply for unemployment, so the government is still paying for their drugs. So, why be able to get assistance...

...The Role of Government in Policy-Making Holly Regan HSM/240 January 26, 2014 Terra Harris The Role of Government in Policy-Making There are three branches of government established by the U.S. Constitution which are: the legislative branch, executive branch, and the judicial branch. The purpose for these three branches of government is to establish the individual and combined powers of each branch, while reserving the rights of each individual state in the union, (Buzzle, 2014. The outline for The Constitution clearly and concisely defined the importance of jury trials, accountability of the government and the protection of every citizen’s rights and civil liberties of the United States of America. It is the business of the legislative branch, the Congress and Senate, to propose and enact laws. It is the business of the executive branch to see that the laws are put into effect through various governmental departments and it is the business of the judiciary (the court system) to preside and rule over who is right or wrong according to the criminal, civil law and often administrative law. Before a social policy or program can come before the judiciary branch of government, someone must believe that a law has been broken. One of the most important parts of policy making are legislative tasks and these tasks are necessary for paving the way for getting a bill passed into law. First task: for an interest group is to clearly define its issue, have complete unanimity...

...SAP Eligibility Rules Jeanine Jones University of Phoenix HSM/240 December 10, 2013 In an organization, eligibility rules are so important because they allow clients to receive benefits and services. Eligibility rules seek the resources that are available to the clients and ration them so that people can learn and benefit from resources. Sometimes when the eligibility rules are not correctly propositioned, people will not even the available resources. Decisions need to be made and whether a person qualifies for assistance falls between guidelines that are set into place for the greater good of the clients. The Substance Abuse Program is an important organization whose eligibility rules matter the most because the inmates have already been stripped of all of their rights. The main eligibility process for the Substance Abuse Program is through Judicial Decision. Because the Substance Abuse program is only offered to incarcerated inmates and this opportunity is handed down by a judicial ruling. Inmates may plead their case to the court, and in many instances they know that being accepted into the program means reduced sentencing. Instead of focusing on getting out of custody to return to the same habits, inmates should really appreciate the special program that they are limited to. Judicial decisions are important because each ruling is different. The Substance Abuse Program has been around through the correction facility for a while and there are certain...

...Goals and Objectives Damien Mohorne HSM/240 June 15, 2014 Ricardo Castro Goals and Objectives Knowing the differences between goals and objectives is vital for any organization. This is an essential part of being able to analyze their services and programs. Latent and manifest functions, long term and short term goals and objectives are parts of the program that needs to be understood in order for the organization to be successful. The organization that I chose is The United States Department of Human and Health Services. This organizations goals and objectives are clearly stated on their web page. The mission of the United States Department of Health and Human Services is: “to help provide the building blocks that Americans need to live healthy, successful lives”, (The United States Department of Human and Health Services [HHS], 2014). Simply said this organization is trying to give assistance to Americans that are in need of help in order for them to be healthy and successful in life. According to The United States Department of Health and Human Service, “We fulfill that mission every day by providing millions of children, families, and seniors with access to high-quality health care, by helping people find jobs and parents find affordable child care, by keeping the food on Americans’ shelves safe and infectious diseases at bay, and by pushing the boundaries of how we diagnose and treat disease”.

...Goals and Goals and Objectives Holly Regan HSM/240 February 9, 2014 Terra Harris Goals and Objectives There are six fundamental policy elements that are equally essential in the development and implementation of all social policies and two of them are goals and objectives. Although the two go hand in hand they often serve entirely different purposes within social programs and policies. Goals and objectives are not about delivering services, but about achieving a desirable outcome with the targeted social problem. The nature of goals is that they are quite general and abstract; therefore, they are not ordinarily intended to be directly measured. Objectives on the other hand, are intended to be measured and the implication is that, for goals, their clear definition is their most important attribute. The importance of objectives, on the other hand, is their concreteness, observability, (Chambers & Wedel, 2005). A goal is an abstract and general statement of desired outcomes. Goals are an answer to the questioning of program or policy purpose. An objective is a concrete, operational statement about a desired observable outcome. Goals and objectives which are manifest are evident, obvious, or apparent goals and objectives which are latent are present, but not visible, apparent or actualized, but still exists as potential. An agency’s or organizations statement of goals and objectives can be found through examination of statements in primary documents...

It dispels the myth that you have to be extroverted to be happy and successful.” —JUDITH ORLOFF, M.D., author of Emotional Freedom “In this engaging and beautifully written book, Susan Cain makes a powerful case for the wisdom of introspection. She also warns us ably about the downside to our culture’s noisiness, including all that it risks drowning out. Above the din, Susan’s own voice remains a compelling presence—thoughtful, generous, calm, and eloquent. Quiet deserves a very large readership.” —CHRISTOPHER LANE, author of Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became a Sickness 4/929 “Susan Cain’s quest to understand introversion, a beautifully wrought journey from the lab bench to the motivational speaker’s hall, offers convincing evidence for valuing substance over style, steak over sizzle, and qualities that are, in America, often derided.
