Social Policy

"There are two types of policy briefs: an advocacy brief (arguing for a course of action) and an objective brief (provides an informative overview on an issue). Policy briefs are created to provide brief evidence-based overviews and convincing information that urge the reader to make a decision on a particular issue. Use these links to locate policy briefs and policy-related reports. For a guide on how to write your own policy brief refer to this document link, Writing Effective Reports, offered by the Food and Agriculture Organization"  (Social Policy - Advocacy, Think Tanks, & Policy Penn State Libraries Guides, n.d.)
