Final Project Part 3 (3–4 pages excluding APA citations)

You will address the following two areas this week for Part 3 of the Final Project:

Provide data analysis methods:

Review Week 4 secondary data methods resources. Select a community health needs assessment dataset from the resources in Week 4 or through Internet research. Please keep in mind that a dataset is an actual collected dataset, so you don’t need to analyze the data, just identify the specific data sets that can be used for a needs assessment.

Based on the data collection methods you chose in Part 2 of the Final Project (Qualitative – Interpretation of records, focus groups | Quantitative – Surveys, Observations) and on the dataset you chose for this part of the project, provide an explanation of how you might analyze these data from the dataset. Also, address the following in this section:

In the Part 2 of the Final Project, you selected a few data collection methods for your community health needs assessment plan (Qualitative – Interpretation of records, focus groups | Quantitative – Surveys, Observations)

· Given what you have learned from this project until this point, if you could go back, would you choose the same data collection methods? Or, would you choose different methods? Justify your rationale.

Explain how you will communicate the results of needs assessment:

· Explain how to communicate your community health needs assessment findings in order to engage and mobilize community members toward building a healthier environment. Support your explanation by using resources from this week.
