Social capital, and
Recommended resolution technique.

Your plan will be graded based upon your ability to relate any of the readings to your professional practice or to any of your “real world” experiences outside of work.

Be sure to discuss any of the topics we discussed in the course to develop your plan. Make sure you include at least one in-text citation for each source you use in this paper. You also can visit the Urban Institute
