CD organization profile
Organization profile – DUE 3/21 (Week 10) by 11am (20%)
Write a 900-1500 word profile of the organization that covers, at a minimum, the questions you pursued in your interview:
1) How, why, and when the organization was founded.
2) The scope of the organization’s work today, the populations it serves, and how either of those have changed over time.
3) The sources of funding that support the organization’s work.
4) The size of the organization in terms of staff and annual budget.
You should also review the organization’s website for additional information about the organization and its work and to check for agreement with what you learned in your interview. In your paper, identify the person you interviewed, their role within the organization, and the date you spoke with them. It’s important that it is clear in your writing what information came from your interview and what information came from other sources. Conclude your profile with a critically reflective assessment of the organization and its work, demonstrating thoughtful engagement and making connections to experiences or insights from class or your life
A profile without an interview will not be accepted.
