In Week 1, you chose an agency to evaluate, and you have been working on that assessment throughout the course. Utilizing your knowledge of the agency you’ve chosen and the class resources, discussions, and class activities, you will now create a multi-part Agency Evaluation Report and Presentation.
Part 1: The Assessment Report
You may choose how to format your report– as a written document, a detailed slideshow presentation (include speaker notes), or another format that integrates all the following information:
Introduction: Write an introduction with a thesis statement that orients the audience to the organization (give an overview), why it is being discussed (what is currently happening there), and what this assessment report address.
Agency Assessment: Articulate a well-developed and easily understood assessment of the organization based on what you have learned in the last seven weeks. Make sure to include both strengths and opportunities for growth in each area. Your statements should be well supported by using course materials and other academic resources that you have cultivated on your own. Please make sure to address these key areas:
Organizational Structure (how is the organization structured – look back at your week one workbook)
Organizational Culture (what type of culture does the organization have – look back at your week three workbook)
Leadership (what type of leadership styles and practices are at play, how does the organization use its leadership and leadership structure)
Supervision Practices (how is supervision positioned at the organization, how is it conducted, is it honored, if your interviewee from week four works at this agency, draw from questions and answers from that paper)
Clinical Considerations (how is the organization addressing employee stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma, and how it promotes employee self-care)
Organizational Issues of DEI (what does the organization do to promote DEI in the workforce, and work place, and make sure that there are DEI policies – look back at your Week 5 workbook)
Teamwork (how is teamwork used at the organization)
External Factors (discuss external factors that influence the organization like the community or government, make sure address one piece of external governmental policy that has influenced/impacted the organization – review your Week 1 Workbook)
Recommendations: You will need four recommendations for the organization, all need to be supported by sources from either the course materials or academic resources cultivated on your own. Each recommendation should be accompanied by logical predictions for how this organization should move forward with implementing the recommendation.
APA Format: Your Assessment Report should be formatted according to APA standards, including reference page(s) or slide(s).

Part 2: The Executive Summary Presentation
Record a 5-7 minute summary of your evaluation, emphasizing your key findings and recommendations for the organization. If you were to present your assessment to the actual leadership of the organization, what are the key ideas and takeaways that you would want them to know?
This presentation should be video recorded and include a slide presentation.
If you submit your Evaluation Report as a slideshow presentation, consider video recording and discussing a few key slides, rather than the full presentation.
The slides should be formatted according to APA standards, including reference slide(s).
