Select an issue impacting military women that is of interest to you and relevant to the class (e.g., family violence, child care, sexual harassment and assault, wounded warriors, etc.). Drawing on a variety of sources (e.g., your local base, library resources, web pages, etc.) do a thorough investigation/analysis of the social service that you selected.
