The Executive Director was able to get the board to approve seeking a grant for the new program. You will now need to determine what your specific needs are for the tutorial program. Why is it that at-risk youth in your community need tutoring? How does this program relate to your organizations mission, goals, and objectives?

 
Proposing the Grant
Good news! The Executive Director was able to get the board to approve seeking a grant for the new program. You will now need to determine what your specific needs are for the tutorial program.
The development of the problem/need statement is critically important, as this is the first impression the potential funder will have of your program and to determine its suitability for funding. The problem/need statement should answer the following questions:

Why is it that at-risk youth in your community need tutoring? How does this program relate to your organization’s mission, goals, and objectives?
What will happen if this program is not funded?
And what do you need the money for specifically?

Here is what you know so far about the program:

The program is specifically for high school students, grades 9–12.
There is currently no community-wide tutoring program for high school students.
The current drop-out rate has increased overall the last several years and currently sits at 30%.
Students will likely have other needs met by other organizations that may contribute to their success in school (ex: food security)
Ideally it will not only improve graduation rates but also the number of students that go on to pursue some kind of post-secondary opportunity.

Part 1
To develop your problem/need statement, use the table provided in Winning Grants Step by Step, Worksheet 3.1A. Fill out the table using information provided in this assignment as well as research you complete on your community. See Worksheet 3.1B for an example.
Worksheet 3.1A: Statement of Problem Questionnaire (Example)Who? Where? When?What? Why?Evidence of ProblemImpact If Problems ResolvedWho is in need (people, animals, land, and so forth)?What? Why? (Get specific)What evidence do you have to support your claim?Impact If Problems Resolved?Where are they? (General: city/state; and specific: neighborhood, geography)Why does this problem exist?When is the problem evident?How is the problem linked to your organization?
Part 2
Using the information gathered in your table, write a 2-3 paragraph problem/need statement. This statement should be succinct and grab the attention of the funder and compel them to want to assist with solving the problem.
When developing a problem/need statement it is important to utilize statistics that clearly document the unmet need or problem (i.e., lack of tutorial programs); provide citations of persons who have authority on the problem, document appropriately the resources utilized for the development of the statement, use compelling and anecdotal stories of people to provide examples, and provide a coherent sense of urgency of the request.
The written proposal should meet the following requirements:

The problem or need statement should fully but succinctly answer each of the four questions outlined in the assignment instructions and should include statistics, citations, anecdotal stories, and examples that emphasize the need and provide a sense of urgency.
The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

Write a proposal for a grant.

Freud has developed a bad reputation in these modern times. He’s perceived as someone obsessed with sex. In one sense, he was, but we can’t let that obscure his many foundational contributions to the development of psychology as we know it today. Modern psychology and personality theory in particular would be very different without the pioneering work of Freud. Perhaps Freud’s greatest contribution was his theory of the conscious and unconscious mind. Despite the fact that many of his ideas are now outdated, the idea of the conscious and unconscious mind is still very relevant. Think of the conscious mind as any bit of information you can access at will. Compare Freud’s concept of consciousness and unconsciousness to the modern concept of mindfulness.

2.3 Assignment. Examining the Conscious and Unconscious Mind

Getting Started

Sigmund Freud has developed a bad reputation in these modern times. He’s perceived as someone obsessed with sex. In one sense, he was, but we can’t let that obscure his many foundational contributions to the development of psychology as we know it today. Modern psychology and personality theory in particular would be very different without the pioneering work of Freud.
Perhaps Freud’s greatest contribution was his theory of the conscious and unconscious mind. Despite the fact that many of his ideas are now outdated, the idea of the conscious and unconscious mind is still very relevant. Think of the conscious mind as any bit of information you can access at will. Compare Freud’s concept of consciousness and unconsciousness to the modern concept of mindfulness.For example, what was the last thing you ate? It should be easy to recall this. The unconscious mind is more mysterious. It represents things that might be hidden from our conscious mind and harder to understand. For example, someone cuts you off in traffic and you react with intense anger even though just a minute before the traffic incident you felt calm. Where did all that anger come from, and how did it erupt so quickly? Freud and his contemporary Carl Jung, another influential psychodynamic theorist, would both say that anger resides somewhere in your unconscious.
Freud and Jung believed the goal of therapy was to bring what was in the unconscious mind into conscious awareness. To get inside the unconscious and gain insight into the traffic incident, Freud might ask this question: What does being cutting off in traffic represent for you? The answer might be hidden in early life experiences where anger still resides, such as being bullied or taken advantage of.
According to Freud and Jung, everyone has an unconscious mind. But not everyone has to go through therapy to make sense of their emotional and life experiences. That’s where the concept of mindfulness comes into play. Mindfulness is simply focusing your conscious mind on what’s happening in the present moment that you’re living. That includes your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations. In the fast-paced world we live in, mindfulness can be a wonderful way to slow down, become more in touch with your body, your emotions, and your relationships.
In this assignment, you have the opportunity to engage with and critique some of Freud’s ideas on the conscious and unconscious mind. You can then compare and contrast Freud’s conscious mind with our modern concept of mindfulness and apply mindfulness to some area of your life.

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

· Compare Freud’s concept of consciousness and unconsciousness to the modern concept of mindfulness.
