2. Perform a web search to locate the group’s main web site. Also, perform a web search for recent information about your group’s activities. You can either type up your report as an essay or you can give your information in a bullet-point list. Make sure your paper answers all the questions. Separate your responses with two spaces between answers.

1. What is the organization or group’s website? 2. What are the issues your organization or group is concerned with? 3. What actions does your group take to try to influence policy and the public agenda? 4. Assess your group: What are its strengths and weaknesses? Back up what you say with specific examples demonstrating their effectiveness (or lack of effectiveness). Remember to find weaknesses of the group, you will likely need to research beyond the group’s main website.

5. Summarize two recent news articles from the organization or group in a paragraph. Be sure to look for news other than that on the group’s website, such as news articles in newspapers online.
