In August, 2016, one small West Virginia city dealt with 27 heroin overdoses in just a four-hour span. Earlier in 2016, the Buffalo, New York area saw 23 fatal overdoses in eleven days. Although these particular examples took place in 2016, similar occurrences can unfortunately be found in other times and locations.Review the following reports:Report 1Report 2Prepare a report in Microsoft Word that covers the following points: Conduct an analysis of the opiate addiction problem. Be sure to include a look at how users become introduced to opiates and opioids in the first place. Describe the factors that contribute to these problems. Incorporate the theories from earlier in the course where appropriate. Propose specific recommendations for resolving the problems. Analyze whether this issue should be approached as a law enforcement or a healthcare issue. Identify expected changes that will occur in the community’s perception of the criminal justice system when these policies are instituted. Make certain that you support your analysis with proper reasoning.

The Course Presentation Activity consists of a brief presentation, such as MS PowerPoint®, where you will focus on a new accident analysis, that you have not previously worked on. This new accident analysis may be another one posed within this course or a different one you have an interest in, but the selected accident must involve some form of mechanical or structural failure as a causal factor(s) directly related to the accident. Similar to previously written case study analyses performed, this presentation involves creating a concise, yet thorough, technical presentation, as if it were before an investigation board hearing. This activity culminates in the production of a professional technical presentation. The presentation will discuss the analysis conducted in determining several factors that are common to most accident events, such as causal factors (primary and contributory), mechanical and structural factors involved, individual human factors and organizational factors that may have played a role, outcomes from the accident, and any risk mitigation or reduction to prevent future occurrences of another accident.Please read through all sections before proceeding to the next page, and refer back whenever necessary.Project GuidancePresentation DirectionsEach Course Project Activity Presentation will consist of at least ten slides, which includes a title or cover slide and a reference slide. This presentation will be posted in a discussion forum and will utilize peer-review, so make sure your presentation can be easily read by the average reader. All sources should be cited using the American Psychological Association (APA) current edition style and formatted appropriately. Presentations must be grammatically sound and free of spelling errors.The presentation may include narration or not, but if the narration is not provided, presenter's notes must be added to the affected slides.The bulk of your research should be authoritative websites and databases, rather than wikis. A thorough Web search should present vast amounts of informational resources available from ERAU's Hunt Library.Remember to properly label any figures, graphics, or tables included within this analysis.Select the Presentation Directions area to continue.
