Report on a specific social problem

  Identify, focus, research, and write a report on a specific social problem. You must use at least six references, four of which must be from scholarly, peer-reviewed journals (e.g., The American Sociological Review). The report should be a well-articulated and carefully thought-out analysis showing that you understand the problem, its specific causes and effects, and its implications and ramifications. You must also indicate why you think change is necessary or due.
