For this milestone, you will formulate recommendations based on the work you have analyzed on your policy issue so far. Instructor feedback on this milestone should be incorporated into the final policy analysis.
Overview: For this milestone, due in Module Five, you will formulate recommendations based on the work you have done so far in analyzing your policy issue.
Instructor feedback on this milestone should be incorporated into the final policy analysis.
Prompt: First, review your Milestone One and Milestone Two submissions and any instructor feedback. Use the information detailed in these milestones to
directly inform this third and final milestone. Your evaluation and analysis of the gaps or limitations to the aging-policy issue, specifically, will inform the
recommendations you formulate and describe in this milestone. Restate the aging-policy issue and address the following:
Recommendations: Identify and describe one to two tangible recommendations to address the gaps or limitations to the aging-policy issue that you
included in your Milestone Two policy analysis; focus on small-scale, feasible recommendations and how they will supplement the policy as it currently
exists.
Perspectives: Describe how competing perspectives drive or direct these policy recommendations.
Reception: Predict how these policy recommendations will be received by competing stakeholders. How will they perceive these policy
recommendations?
Social Justice: Discuss how the policy issue is a social justice issue and how it relates to the concept of elder justice specifically. Consider how the issue
impacts the wider population.
Filling the Gaps: How will these recommendations help to fill the gaps or address the limitations you have identified in the existing policy with respect to
social justice and elder well-being?
Instructor feedback on this milestone should be incorporated into the final project.
Guidelines for Submission: Milestone Three should be 2 to 3 pages, double-spaced, using 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and the latest
edition of the APA manual for formatting and citations.
