Initial proposal

My issue is battered women. This issue is happening all over the world, to women and even to teens. And we don’t have enough shelters to keep these women safe. The problem is that we need more shelters and programs to help protect them from their partners that abuse them. We need to educate women all over that they don’t need to stay in the abusive relationships that they are in.

A tentative solution to the problem for battered women is to make more shelters and programs to stop this problem from happening we can inform the government that we need more money for shelters, and inform the women that we have the shelters and they don’t have to stay with the abuse any longer. We can do as much as we need to help these women stay out of the abusive relationships.

My purpose for writing is to inform the government and women that we need more shelters and that we have the shelters for these women to go and for them to be safe. This brochure can help the women find a safe place to be for the meanwhile. Until they are able to go off and get a job to pay for an apartment. The shelters and programs would help them do so. I would like to see more of these shelters and programs get built, and help the ones in need.

My research action project needs at least five sources for my research paper; At least one print, two databases, and two internet sources. I’m also going to make a brochure to inform women that we have these shelters to go into to get help, and get away from the abuse. To complete my project the steps I can make is; asking for a pass to the IRC when I have study, I can also find information at my house on the internet. I can complete the initial stage by 12/8, the intermediate stage by 12/15, by 12/15is also need a total amount of at least 30 flash cards, and the complete final stage by 1/6.

Ellise, I can clearly see that you feel strongly about this issue, which is important as you move forward. I think you need to pick one audience and solution because otherwise this is going to be too difficult to manage in a short project. Right now you are focusing on two solutions and two audiences: 1) battered women as audience, telling them where to get help and 2) government/tax-paying public as audience, convincing them to build more shelters. I think you're right, both are needed, but for the scope of this paper you might want to pick one or the other, unless you can think of a solution that combines both, that helps women get away from an abusive relationship and provides much needed shelter and safe housing for them. Maybe there are groups of battered women who join together to help and support each other? Have you seen anything like that?

You also need to have an annotated bibliography--you should have three sources up by now. Do you have three to post? --Ms. D
