Policy advocacy presentation

Assignment Prompt
Applying the principles from the Nursing Leadership and Health
Policy learning modules students will explore the role of the
Registered Nurse Leader in policy advocacy. Create a policy
challenge presentation with a focus on collaboration.
Directions:
1. Interview a nurse leader from a professional nursing
organization to collect ideas for the project.
2. Utilize your readings, research and resources to build the
content. This should be a collaborative team process.
3. Design a voice- narrated Powerpoint or Prezi to create a
presentation and provide an overview of a grassroots policy
challenge (present or past) that the identified organization
supports. The policy challenge can be a local, state or federal
policy issue. Create a title slide or page. Include a final slide or page with key references cited in APA 7th ed. format.
4. Each presentation should be between 5-10 minutes in
length. Rehearse and time the presentation in advance to
ensure that the 10-min. time limit is not exceeded.
5.
Each presentation will need to include (but is not limited to):
Brief description of the policy challenge and the nursing association that was identified.
Describe the “Agenda” for the identified policy challenge.
Include how the policy issue was identified, (Did the

Brief description of key stakeholders (those who will be affected and those who can effect change), ie, interest groups,
opposition groups/individuals or coalitions.
