Select an ethnic minority group that is represented in the United States (American Indian/Alaskan Native, Asian American, Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander). Using health information available from Healthy People, the CDC, and other relevant government websites, analyze the health status for this group.
In a paper of 1,000-1,250 words, compare and contrast the health status of your selected minority group to the national average. Include the following:
Describe the ethnic minority group selected. Describe the current health status of this group. How do race and ethnicity influence health for this group?
What are the health disparities that exist for this group? What are the nutritional challenges for this group?
Discuss the barriers to health for this group resulting from culture, socioeconomics, education, and sociopolitical factors.
What health promotion activities are often practiced by this group?
Describe at least one approach using the three levels of health promotion prevention (primary, secondary, and tertiary) that is likely to be the most effective in a care plan given the unique needs of the minority group you have selected. Provide an explanation of why it might be the most effective choice.
What cultural beliefs or practices must be considered when creating a care plan? What cultural theory or model would be best to support culturally competent health promotion for this population? Why?
Cite at least three peer-reviewed or scholarly sources to complete this assignment. Sources should be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and public health content.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

HEALTH PROMOTION IN MINORITY POPULATIONS2
Health Promotion in Minority Populations
Write your introductory paragraph here. Make sure to state your thesis or purpose statement within this paragraph. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the health status of the ethnic minority group xxxxx. Please give a brief description of your plan for the paper in this paragraph.
Description
Follow the rubric requirements for this section. Be complete but also concise and make sure to add in-text citations anytime you are addressing an idea that is not your original thought or idea (Papanicolas, Woskie, & Jha, 2018).
Health Disparities and Nutritional Challenges
Discuss rubric requirements here in this paragraph or section. Again, please use in-text citations every time you present an idea that is not originally yours (Satcher, 2017). I am adding some in-text citations, so you are aware of how to use them if there was confusion.
Barriers to Health
This section needs to include information represented in the rubric for health barriers. Satcher (2017), presents the idea that health care…….
Health Promotion Activities
Present your information regarding health promotion activities in this paragraph or section.
Three Levels of Health Promotion Prevention
Please discuss the rubric points in this section. Be sure to use in-text citations as none of us are published scholars in the levels of health promotion prevention. Please use articles that are less than five years old as applicable and refrain from using textbooks as generally by the time their information is published, especially in healthcare, the data is no longer currently used in practice (De Vries & Timmins, 2016).
Culturally Competent Health Promotion
Discuss the rubric requirements for this section here. Please use in-text citations after each comment made that is not your original idea. Also please remember you must have at least three references, this does not mean you can only have three. You also can use that reference more than one time in an in-text citation throughout your paper (De Vries & Timmins, 2016). Please try and refrain from using direct quotes. They are not used much in scholarly writings unless there is a big point to make and that is the best feasible way to do it (Papanicolas et al., 2018).
Conclusion
Please use this paragraph to summarize your paper. Also address how you met your purpose/thesis from the introduction. Please use this format for your papers as it will make it easier for you to ensure that you have touched each rubric topic and will make it very clear to me that you have followed directions.
