Undertaking this assignment will enable you to develop the macro practice skill of “secondary data analysis.”To assist you with this assignment, the Government Documents librarian has created an online research guide which gives you instructions on how to access the data bases for the topics you choose to analyze: http://libguides.fiu.edu/content.php?pid=367671&sid=3010555This wonderful resource gives you directions on how to use the U.S. Census American Fact Finder and American Community Survey, in addition to Florida Charts health care data (State of Florida Department of Health).

Demographic communities are based on variables such as race, ethnicity, gender, age, income status, educational status, employment status, etc. Background variables could include family status (i.e. single head of household, grandparent head of household) or a combination of variables such as Haitian women, low income seniors, unemployed persons, high school drop outs etc. Geographic communities would be municipal areas such as City of Hialeah, City of Homestead, City of Aventura, City of Miami Lakes, Miami-Dade County, Broward County, etc.Go to government data bases. Research social indicator data on your selected population/community of interest. Write a report on what you have found, describing the community and include copies of the government documents utilized. Only include copies of the pages that include the statistics that you used.Instructions, Part IIFrom your study of the “community” researched above, select a social/health care topic that has some social justice, social work and/or social welfare implications, such as access to a primary care provider, insurance coverage, engagement in preventive screenings, alcohol abuse rates, domestic violence rates, child immunization rates, housing issues etc. Write a report on what you have found and include copies of the pages of the government documents that include the statistics that you used.After writing your description of the social/health issue (it should be related to the community issue in part 1) write a commentary on the kind of programs or policies that you believe should be created to address the social/health issue that you studied.This assignment can be completed within 6-8 pages (excluding copies of the pages you are attaching as proof of the source of your data).
