IMPORTANT: ALL IMPLYING GUILTY ANSWERS ARE NOT ALWAYS “NO” RESPONSES AND ALL IMPLYING NOT GUILTY ANSWERS ARE NOT ALWAYS ‘YES’ RESPONSES. Question Answer Implying Guilty Answer Implying Not Guilty EXAMPLE: Could other DLP traders have manipulated GEDS’s transaction systems like Kerviel did? No, the methods employed by Kerviel were so intricate that no one else could have replicated them. Yes, Kerviel did not have to customize the systems in any way in order to conceal his unauthorized and fictitious trades. 1 Had there been any previous instances or notifications of deficiencies in DLP’s controls? 2 Was Société Générale prudent in assigning sole responsibility for market risk oversight to trading management? 3 Did GEDS make effective use of market risk management? 4 Why did financial reporting catch the fraud, not trading management, operations, or risk management? 5 Was Société Générale so focused on achieving growth on many fronts that it neglected to invest in sufficiently robust systems and internal controls?

Running head: JUVENILE DELINQUENCY POLICY JUVENILE DELINQUENCY POLICY Juvenile Delinquency Policy Student's Name Institutional Affiliation Often policies aimed at improving the situation of certain conditions in the society are formulated, passed and made ready for implementation. However, challenges face the implementation phase of the policies. There are a number of challenges that may hinder the implementation of a certain policy. These range from physical, social, economic, environmental and economic factors. this paper will seek to exploit the cost factors that affect the implementation of the juvenile delinquency policy. These fall under the economic factors of the above-named factors. These include a measure of the benefits that are to be realized upon switching to the new policy. Training Costs. Implementation of any policy involves capacity building of individuals who are going to disseminate the information to different part of the nation. This includes carrying out training in different places so as to ensure that the public is sensitized on the importance of this particular policy of juvenile delinquency for our case. This may include training in the institutions and also community-based training all of which will require funds for facilitation. Incorporations Cost The implementation of this policy will involve the provision of education to children in order to mold them to the desirable state of behavior. There will be a need of taking even the children who do not have access to education to institutions by ensuring that education is free of charge to all. To ensure these, the government of the day is obliged to sponsor these programs hence will need to source funds for the program. Program Sustenance Cost Once a program to support this policy is started, it important to ensure that the program is kept going on. There should be a consideration of the ways to sustain the program through the provision of necessities like learning materials among other education materials. Administrative Costs. These are the costs that are incurred to run the program in different places. This includes salaries for the officer responsible for overseeing the policy implementation in the different locations. This is also a great factor to put into consideration. Ensuring The Participation of Different Groups in This Policy. The involvement of the groups within the society is very important as it boosts this policy implementation. There are a number of ways that can be used to ensure the participation of these individual groups within society. The mass media being one of the groups can be involved through carrying out the campaigns via the media houses. The media houses can air any information that is supposed to pass across to the society. The media houses can also horst in.

THE HEAD START PARENT, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT FRAMEWORK PROMOTING FAMILY ENGAGEMENT AND SCHOOL READINESS, FROM PRENATAL TO AGE 8 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families Office of Head Start R This document was prepared under Contract no. GS-10F-0311K of the Office of Head Start, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, by the Head Start Resource Center, 1000 Wilson Blvd., Suite 1000, Arlington, VA 22209. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES ADMINISTRATION FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES 370 L'Enfant Promenade, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20447 August 15, 2011 Dear Head Start Colleagues, I am pleased to introduce the Head Start Parent, Family and Community Engagement (PFCE) Framework, the first of its kind. The Parent, Family and Community Engagement Framework provides programs with a research based, organizational guide for implementing relevant Head Start Program Performance Standards. The PFCE Framework marks the beginning of a new wave of technical assistance resources that will be made available to programs in the coming year through the National Center on Parent, Family and Community Engagement. Because supporting children's school readiness is an ongoing partnership between staff and families, the PFCE Framework is a tool that all staff and families can use. I invite you to review this valuable resource and to consider ways to improve and promote parent and family engagement in your program. The PFCE Framework can be used in program-wide strategic planning, program design and management, systems of continuous improvement, professional development for staff, and with governing bodies and parent groups. It can be used to help improve program services or to inform community partners about Head Start parent and family engagement goals and the importance of those goals for school readiness. Families play a critical role in helping their children be ready for school and for a lifetime of academic success, and Head Start and Early Head Start programs are valuable partners with families in this endeavor. Head Start Parent Involvement has continually evolved since its inception in 1965. The Head Start Parent, Family and Community Engagement Framework begins the next chapter in Head Start's long history of leading the field in engaging families and supporting children's ongoing learning and development. Thank you for the work you do every day for children and families. - THE HEAD START PARENT, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT FRAMEWORK ENGAGING FAMILIES—PRENATAL TO AGE 8 Parent and family engagement in Head Start/Early Head Start (HS/EHS) is about building relationships with families that support family well-being, strong relationships between parents and their children, and ongoing learning and development for both parents and children.

December 2010 Dear Head Start Colleague, I am pleased to share this revision of the Head Start Child Outcomes Framework, renamed The Head Start Child Development and Learning Framework: Promoting Positive Outcomes in Early Childhood Programs Serving Children 3–5 Years Old. The changes to the revised Framework are designed to provide more clarity to the domains and domain elements of the original Framework and do not create new requirements for Head Start grantees. The original Framework, published in 2000, was a groundbreaking document reflecting early childhood research at the time, as well as requirements of the 1998 Head Start Act. Its release created a wave of activity that focused Head Start grantees on key elements of school readiness and moved many states to develop early learning standards that mirrored elements of the Framework. The early childhood field has changed dramatically. The population of children served by Head Start and other early childhood programs continues to grow more diverse. New research has improved our understanding of school readiness, and the Improving Head Start for School Readiness Act of 2007 has increased the Framework’s role in Head Start programs. In addition, almost every state now has early learning standards. Also, new reporting systems have emerged at the state level and through the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) within the U.S. Department of Education. The Framework is revised in light of these realities. We expect the revised Framework to be used by programs in curriculum and assessment decisions just as the original Framework was intended to be used. It should also continue to be used to connect child assessment data to aspects of Head Start program design, including school readiness goals consistent with state and local expectations, if appropriate. Additionally, we expect it will guide the collection of child assessment data for other early childhood reporting systems, if locally required. When used in these ways, the revised Framework will provide data for program self-assessment and promote continuous quality improvement in programs and child well-being and success. The Office of Head Start is pleased to lead the field with this work. We hope that the revised Framework will continue to guide all programs serving 3 to 5 year old children, including children who are dual language learners and children w ...

Assignment Content 1. Top of Form Professional dispositions have been defined as the “values, commitments, and professional ethics that influence behavior toward candidates, families, colleagues and communities and affect candidate learning, motivation and development as well as the educator’s own professional growth” (NCATE, 2000). Dispositions can also be described as attitudes and beliefs about counseling, as well as professional conduct and behavior. Not all dispositions can be directly assessed, but aspects of professional behavior are assessed during classes and field experiences in counseling settings. Review the Master of Science in Counseling Professional Dispositions. To prepare for professional dispositions assessments in this program, write a 700 word paper in which you: · Reflect on your personal strengths in connection to the dispositions. Support your ideas with examples. · Identify areas for personal growth in connection to the dispositions. Support your ideas with examples. · Outline an action plan for developing the identified areas for personal growth. · Describe why it is important to adhere to the dispositions. How do they support professionalism in counseling? How do they make a counselor effective? Format your assignment according to course-level APA guidelines. Bottom of Form The title for this Special Section is Developmental Research and Translational Science: Evidence-Based Interventions for At-Risk Youth and Families, edited by Suniya S. Luthar and Nancy Eisenberg Processes of Early Childhood Interventions to Adult Well-Being Arthur J. Reynolds, Suh-Ruu Ou, Christina F. Mondi, and Momoko Hayakawa University of Minnesota This article describes the contributions of cognitive–scholastic advantage, family support behavior, and school quality and support as processes through which early childhood interventions promote well-being. Evidence in support of these processes is from longitudinal cohort studies of the Child–Parent Centers and other preventive interventions beginning by age 4. Relatively large effects of participation have been documented for school readiness skills at age 5, parent involvement, K-12 achievement, remedial education, educational attainment, and crime prevention. The three processes account for up to half of the program impacts on well-being. They also help to explain the positive economic returns of many effective programs. The generalizability of these processes is supported by a sizable knowledge base, including a scale up of the Child–Parent Centers. Growing evidence that early childhood experiences can improve adult well-being and reduce educational disparities has increased attention to prevention (Braveman & Gottlieb, 2014; Power, Kuh, & Morton, 2013). Early disparities between high- and low-income groups are evident in school readiness skills, which increase substantially over time in rates of achievement proficiency, delinquency, and educational attainment (Braveman ...

Running head: DIVERSITY AND MULTICULTURALISM IN HEALTH CARE 1 DIVERSITY AND MULTICULTURALISM IN HEALTH CARE 1 Diversity and Multiculturalism in Health Care Kimberly Crawford Kaplan University November 28, 2016 Diversity and multicultural perspectives are vital in the health education and public health fields in that it allows people to recognize interdependence and focus their ideas with a group other than their own. Additionally, it utilizes the patient's culture and language as tools to advance the results for that individual. According to the American Academy of Family Physician (2014), diversity and multiculturalism create a health care setting that appreciates diversity people feel welcome, appreciated, and allow medical professionals and organization to instil multiracial viewpoints into their strategy, plan and execute quality focused health initiative to all members of the community. In general, embracing cultural diversity and multiple perspectives before starting an intervention program is vital to the provision and improvement of the overall quality of care delivery. It is, therefore, important to consider multiple perspectives before starting an intervention because diversity in the target audience and the program participants has ramifications regarding the things measured, the data collected as well as how the data is collected. For instance, before the program, one needs to consider factors such as nationality, race, and culture because, in some situations, race has been associated with some specific genetic diseases such as sickle cell anemia, and some lactose intolerance, which can influence the intervention outcomes (Issel, 2004). According to Issel, factors like physical characteristics of the population and community may affect the decisions during the planning and later during program evaluation. Furthermore, it is important to consider multiple perspectives before the program because program participants may bring their culture to the program in ways that may influence the intervention and its effectiveness. Goal 1 could be applied to a diverse population; however, the goals need to be modified to be culturally inclusive. Different cultures have different foods and therefore to ensure that the participating population adheres to the program, the plan should state precisely the foods to be taken during the intervention to ensure successful outcomes. The second goal involves preventing obesity among children through childcare and schools. This goal can be implemented within a multicultural population however in needs some modification to get the best results. Different families have various methods of nurturing their children, and different meals could have an effect on the health of the child. As a result, the program needs to begin by educating families on some of the best ways to nurture their children especially the foods they feed their babies at an early stage. The ...

1.1 The Benefits of Early Childhood Education According to the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the largest membership organization for early education professionals, there are more than 300,000 licensed or regulated early childhood programs in the United States (NAEYC, n.d.). This figure includes a variety of for-profit and nonprofit program types, such as child care centers, preschools, and family child care homes. An early childhood care program is generally defined as an educational or child care service provided to young children, including infants through 5-year-olds and often also inclusive of older children in after-school programs. Such programs usually employ teachers or caregivers, as well as support staff such as kitchen workers or office assistants. The amount of time children spend in early childhood programs each day can vary from a few hours in a part-day preschool program to nine hours or more in a full-day child care center. With rare exception, these programs are run by early childhood administrators. The work of early childhood administrators has a significant effect on the lives of young children and their families, because early childhood education plays an important role in the healthy development of children and sets the stage for academic achievement and future success. Meeting the Needs of Children and Families For many parents, the top priority in enrolling their child in an early childhood program is to find adequate child care services so they can continue to work outside the home. In the United States today, more than half of the mothers of children under age five are in the labor force (United States Department of Labor, 2008), and four out of five young children with employed mothers receive child care by someone other than their parents (Forum on Child and Family Statistics, 2010). Working parents may need flexibility in pick-up and drop-off times, some may need extended hours care, and all want care that is safe, high quality, and affordable. Parents also enroll their children in child care or preschool programs for social and cognitive reasons. They may wish for their child to interact with other children, or they may seek to develop their child's school-readiness skills to help prepare him or her for kindergarten. For children who are considered high risk for school failure, there are programs that provide targeted supports to help children develop language, literacy, and problem-solving skills. For example, publicly funded early childhood programs help children living in poverty who might not otherwise have access to early childhood programs prepare for kindergarten and later school success. Positive Outcomes of High-Quality Care The first five years of a child's life are a critical period of development. Children are learning essential cognitive, social, emotional, physical, and self-help skills necessary for success in school and in life. A growing body of research ...

Characteristics of Effective Prevention Programs "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." –Benjamin Franklin Mental health services can target families and couples already experiencing severe problems, those couples and families experiencing common life stage transitions, and even couples and families that have not yet shown any signs of difficulty at all. Primary prevention seeks to intervene with the latter group on a mass scale with the goal of impacting the greatest number of couples and families as possible. As attractive as primary prevention sounds, and equally common-sensical and time-honored, the development and implementation of primary preventative interventions and programs proves difficult. For instance, it is difficult to measure the impact of an intervention or program that seeks to forestall some future outcome that may be one or more years away. Fortunately, much research has been conducted on what constitutes an effective, or good, preventative intervention or program. The dilemma for mental health professionals as a whole, and for you as a future marriage, couple, and family counselor, is how to carve out space in your professional work for the creation and development of prevention programming. This is challenging because in clinical practice, the majority of time and money may be spent on tertiary prevention or remedial counseling. To prepare for this Discussion, use the Internet to find a prevention program for an area of professional interest. Consider how this program is effective or ineffective using the characteristics of effective programs outlined in the Learning Resources. Reply Primary Prevention Program Example Educating the young about Health Safety In this week I will discuss Primary prevention, and different characteristics that this program successful produce. Primary prevention is actively involved and aimed at high-risk groups that are not affected by a condition of prevention (Albee, George W., Ryan, Kimberly,1998). In the following reading of preventive care: Sanders, Thompson, and Bidwell use a population approach relating to children making transitions in a primary effort of research (Sanders, M. R., Ralph, A., Sofronoff, K., Gardiner, P., Thompson, R., Dwyer, S., & Bidwell, K. ,2008). One strong characteristic was multilevel planning, execution, and evaluation relating to the study of comparison communities and Targeted population (Sanders, M. R., Ralph, A., Sofronoff, K., Gardiner, P., Thompson, R., Dwyer, S., & Bidwell, K.,2008). One example of a primary prevention program would first involve educating one of or exposure to that may occur (case teaching the young adolescents about health and the safety of good health such as using good hygiene or eating right or working out daily).In the several characteristics that may relate to primary prevention may involve risk factors, protective factors, and Variable Risk factors relating to culture, .

Tsipporah Top of Form Results of the Evaluation The results of the evaluation of the School Success Program showed improvement in academics for children who were victims of maltreatment. This program recognized that there is a correlation between poor school performance of children who were maltreated. The School Success Program assists maltreated youth in school with tutoring and mentoring by certified teachers (Mallett, 2012). This program recognized that children who are maltreated have learning difficulties in school. Providing assistance to maltreated children with tutoring and mentoring increased their performance in school. “Program participants have shown one-year improvements that are significant when compared with those of their non maltreated peers: Basic reading and comprehension skills improved 58 percent; math reasoning and comprehension skills improved 50 percent; basic writing skills improved 48 percent; and overall academic skills improved 51 percent” (Mallett, 2012, p.13). These results were noted from both genders and with minorities, especially males. Background Information and the Key Message Background information that I would need to present to show that this program is successful and should be implemented elsewhere, is to show the results of identified maltreated children without intervention and to compare the results to maltreated children with interventions. I would show graphs and data to compare the results and the increased improvement of the interventions is significant. I could provide results of a single research study to show how the intervention improved academic performance which is significant. Also, using results of past research studies. Physical abuse and neglect have been shown to have negative results on school performance. Showing how the tutoring and mentoring program improved academic performance is significant. Strategies to meet your Colleagues’ Interests and Goals Strategies to meet my colleagues’ interests and goals would be to utilize surveys to learn about concerns that my colleagues may have about poor academic performance. If the goal is to reach this population early to produce better results in school performance, the program that is yielding strong results should be implemented. Questions Colleagues Might Have and Possible Reactions Questions colleagues might have about the program is how do we reach the intended population? How do we implement the program and maintaining the fidelity of the program that yields the intended results? What skills and trainings do the tutors and mentors need to possess. I would show that we will screen for poor academic progress and poor attendance to identify some. When we are aware that a children services agency is involved with certain children, they are enrolled automatically in the program. Ensure that tutors and mentors can be interns in education, working on their teaching degrees. I believe if their questions are answered during the presentatio ...

As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, computer, and textbook, you are asked to attend a “cultural event” and report on your experience. This assignment requires the following: Submit your cultural event choice to the instructor for approval before the end of Week 5. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition of modern art before the end of Week 9. Write a report of the visit. Summarize the report in a PowerPoint presentation. **Please be sure to use a gallery or museum from Columbia SC** Write a three to four (3-4) page paper (750-1,000 words) in which you: Identify the date visited, location, name, and background of the museum or specific exhibition. (If virtual, identify the Website along with the other information.) Describe three (3) works, noting the artist, title, subject, and the time period of each work. Compare the style, influences, and meaning or intent of each piece, highlighting any changes (if any) from the first to last piece. Explain your reasons for selecting the pieces in a discussion of the reasons for the artist’s popularity and / or impact on the art world. Summarize the main points of three (3) works discussed in your paper in a PowerPoint presentation of at least three (3) slides. Each of the slides should have three to four (3-4) short bullet points and notes about the works in the slide notes section. Include a cover page for the PowerPoint. Add the slides with notes to your paper. Include four (4) references that help support your claims. (The text may be used as one (1) reference.) Visiting a Museum It makes sense to approach a museum the way a seasoned traveler approaches visiting a city for the first time. Find out what is available to see. In the museum, find out what sort of exhibitions are currently housed in the museum and start with the exhibits that interest you. If there is a travelling exhibition, it’s always a good idea to see it while you have the chance. Then, if you have time, you can look at other things in the museum. Make notes as you go through the museum and accept any handouts or pamphlets that the museum provides free. While you should not quote anything from the printed material when you do your report, the handouts may help to refresh your memory later. The quality of your experience is not measured by the amount of time you spend in the galleries or the number of works of art that you actually see. The most rewarding experiences can come from finding three (3) pieces of art or exhibits that intrigue you and then considering those works in leisurely contemplation. Most museums even have benches where you can sit and study a particular piece. If you are having a difficult time deciding which pieces to write about, ask yourself these questions: (1) If the museum you are visiting suddenly caught fire, which three (3) pieces of art or exhibits would you most want to see saved from the fire? (2) Why would you choose those two (2) particular pieces? .

As discussed, science and technology are not mutually exclusive but certain aspects are intertwined and one can and often does drive the advancement of the other. Robotics for example began as science fiction and has evolved into a reality because of advances in both science and technology. Recently the emergence of Soft Robotics has melded the two into an almost indistinguishable area of study. One where both technology and science play an integral role. Various sciences have had significant impact on the advancements of soft robotics. More specifically materials science, biology and physics (continuum mechanics). Nearly every field of engineering plays a role in the technological advancement of soft robotics. Mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering and fluid dynamics are just to name a few areas that without their application of technological advances in-of-themselves we soft robotics would not be where it is today. The word Robot comes from the Slavic root word “rabota (Работа)” meaning to work. It first appeared in a Czech play in the 1920’s and was further developed into other works of science fiction. Human beings have forever been fascinated by the fine line between Science Fiction and Science Fact. We have used science fiction to catapult our imaginations into a tangible reality. Our desire to reach further and further into space has also sped up the evolution of soft robotics as seen in new space suits under development and the exploration of our nearby planets. The data collection that these robots will provide to further scientific research here on earth will prove to be invaluable in the future. Further employment of soft robotics in existing industries would create the supply and demand effect needed to fund further research and development. References: Rus, Daniela and Michael T.

As a Registered Nurse since 1998, I have seen many changes among patient populations. They are getting older, sicker, and resistant pathogens have become more common, extensive, and profound. Not just restricted to heavy use of antibiotics, but environmental pollution with extensive biocides and heavy metals also created resistant pathogens (Singer, 2019). Environmental pollution poses many dangers to human health, which my potential future role as a nurse practitioner (NP) would serve to research trends, educate, and treat public maladies. Healthcare has become more technological and economically challenging, with the unfortunate complication of making primary care too expensive and unobtainable among populations, including the working poor and working middle class. Medications have become very complex; life-sustaining drugs are subsequently exorbitantly expensive. For example, insulin underuse leading to serious disease complications was one in four, especially in urban areas due to lack of affordability (Bhatia, Chang, & Bilal, 2019). Human populations with such profound needs, including issues with resistant organisms, can be potentially met as an Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse (GPCN) with research, education, and affordable medical management ; credentialing is essential to get issues across for underserved and ignored populations. Walden University School of Nursing (SON) integrates the nursing process with cost-effective treatment strategies (2019a). Networking and accessing resources are essential for the GPCN role. This personal mission and vision are in alliance with Walden University’s goal and values, including student-centeredness, quality, and integrity; such opportunities would enable me to achieve such credentialing as GPCN, providing convenient educational opportunities accommodating my work schedule (Walden University, 2019). Walden University further enriches the spirit of evidence-based research, discovery, and critical thinking, effecting social changes improving living conditions for individuals, communities, and society (2019). Walden University’s SON has similar objectives, lending opportunities for specialist nurse practice enabling social change (2019a). As a GPCN, we are professionals that utilize the nursing process integrating assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementing, and evaluation of healthcare strategies enabling access to healthcare to even the socioeconomic disadvantaged (Walden University, 2019a). For example, there are approximately 12 million undocumented immigrants (Beck, Le, Henry-Ikafor, & Shah, 2019). Consider the spread of tuberculosis among the impoverished, being a disease of poverty, the undocumented encounter barriers such as fear of deportation and cost in which the GPCN can bring access to these populations, thereby preventing the spread of disease, and delivering treatment to the afflicted by fostering trust ( Beck et al., 2019). Making medical access more affordable for unders.

As a social worker, you will often work with clients that are perceived as "others." This "otherness" often leads to marginalization and barriers or limitations promoted by society and social institutions. Marginalization is arguably the most dangerous form of oppression (Adams et al., 2013) because it eventually leads to social expulsion and material deprivation. Social work is a unique profession because it empowers those who are affected by the socially constructed barriers and biases that have perpetuated long-standing inequalities. As you begin your work with clients both as an intern and social worker, it is imperative to consider not only the individual (micro) concerns the client brings to the session but the environmental or macro factors that may have either created or perpetuated the concern. You can empower your clients by helping them identify and define the oppression they experienced throughout their lifetime. Social work's commitment to social justice includes a hyperawareness of the social constructions that are used to limit some groups' autonomy and viability while supporting others. By Day 3 Post an analysis of the dimensions of oppression and marginalization that might impact your future clients. Be specific in identifying the types of clients with whom you might work and provide a specific example of a social injustice, economic injustice, and environmental injustice that clients might experience. In your analysis, explain how the concepts of multiculturalism, power, and privilege are relevant to social work practice. .

As a social worker, you will meet children and adolescents who are in complicated family situations and may require a variety of resources for support. There are many times when these situations involve drug abuse, domestic violence, child abuse, and/or neglect. If these factors are present within a child’s or adolescent’s environment, it will impact their development. As mandated reporters, social workers are legally required to report any suspicion they have of child abuse or neglect to local authorities in an effort to ensure a healthier environment within which they can grow. For this Discussion, review the case study “Working With Clients With Addictions: The Case of Barbara and Jonah.” Consider this week’s reading in the Learning Resources. By Day 3 Post an explanation of influences of Barbara's and Scott’s substance use on Jonah’s future development. Describe an intervention that you would use for Jonah if you were the social worker in this case. Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer. Plummer, S.-B., Makris, S., & Brocksen S.

As an entrepreneur, you likely have the objective that one day you will have a very successful company with employees to help you accomplish your mission. When your company grows your ability to monitor the activities of your employees diminishes. While your direct supervision of all of your employees diminishes their ability to act independently increases. As your employees develop more authority to act on behalf of your company, there is a corresponding greater chance that someone might act in some negligent way resulting in the physical or financial injury to someone. The legal doctrine of respondeat superior states that an employer may be held legally responsible for the negligent acts of his/her employees while those employees were considered legal agents of the employer or were otherwise acting within the scope of their employ.

As a profession, police are unique in the amount of power they can exercise with the general population. Because of this position of power and trust, police also have great need for training and understanding related to cultural sensitivity and awareness. They deal with populations across the community, and although there has been a recent focus on hiring criminal justice professionals that are representative of the populations they serve on the job, no one officer or group can be representative of all community members. This is where leadership related to police–community relations and cultural sensitivity can bridge the gaps and facilitate awareness. Consider the following scenario: You have been hired as the chief of police in a community where there are strained police–community relations due to several instances of cultural insensitivity. In addition, police department morale is low due to complaints regarding cultural insensitivity among the police officers. The Assignment Create a 4- to 5-page professional report in which you outline a plan to a) improve police–community relations and b) address the morale and cultural insensitivity issues in the police force. Part I: Explain two specific steps or programs that you would implement to improve police–community relations. Be specific, and provide evidence from the literature to support your choice of these steps or programs. (2–3 pages) Part II: Explain two steps or programs that you would implement within the police force to address morale and cultural insensitivity. Be specific and provide evidence from the literature to support your choice of these steps or programs. (2–3 pages) Provide at least three scholarly resources to support your recommendations. .

CVP takes into consideration the influence each aspect of operation or production unit has on the running of an organization. It stipulates the expenses that are to be incurred in a given operation by considering the fixed and variable costs that come with production of a good or a service or yet the sale of a product. This makes it an essential tool in the control of budgetary allocation in an organization as it provides the necessary information that gives direction on the combined activities that are likely to add value to an investor's capital (Serfling, 2016). A major example may be stipulated in the production of a food product, which seems to gain demand on weekends. In such a case, the business producing the product will commit its resources elsewhere during the weekday to optimize on the scarce resources and avoid drowning in expenses example fixed costs such as rent and utilize its production unit to meet the accruing demand on weekends. Thus, it is without a doubt to state that CVP Analysis is a major tool of planning used in managing risks, optimizing on the scarce resources which are all essential in enhancing customer satisfaction (Lulaj & Iseni, 2018). Essentially, CVP provides information that is crucial in the control and planning of production, among other operational activities in an organization. Variable Costing Variable costing revolves around the assigning of the period and product costs in regards to a given kind of product. Researchers observe that it is an essential approach in internal reporting due to its ability to break the complexity that comes along with an organization’s operation and production (Creese, 2017). It addresses costs product costs related to manufacturing and specifically those that can be directly attributed to a product. In this case, it provides enough information that is crucial in controlling the production sector and makes plans through strategies such as budgetary allocation (Serfling, 2016). This is so in that it provides the relationship between the expected and actual costs and through this it becomes easier for the management to schedule their operations, which’s crucial in maximizing the .
