For this assignment, you are tasked with comparing and contrasting citizen engagement and activity practices in nonprofit and third sector organizations (e.g., advocacy efforts, issue-focused engagement) with more traditional practices in political activity and public sector activities that relate to general civic engagement (e.g., voting, calling congressmen and congresswomen, attending city budget meetings).In your paper, address the following questions/points: What are main differences between how citizens participate and engage in relation to each area of participation? What are key similarities that both forms of participation and engagement share?The following two items require your opinions, which are a very important part of this assignment: Which form of citizen engagement seems to be more effective in terms of influencing policy or attaining certain desired outcomes? Why? Which form of citizen engagement seems to be more effective in terms of motivating citizens to act, to interact with each other, and to remain motivated and active in their states and communities? Why?Your essay must include an introduction and must be three to five pages in length, not counting title and reference pages. All pages will be double-spaced. You must include at least four sources, two of which must be peer-reviewed. Be sure to cite all borrowed, quoted, and paraphrased material appropriately in APA style.The purpose of this assignment is to gauge your understanding of the content, so focus on writing original content rather than simply regurgitating the textbook or other sources, whether by paraphrasing or using direct quotes. Paraphrasing is acceptable, but try to keep paraphrasing to a minimum. A good rule of thumb is to use 80% of your own work and paraphrase 20% or less of the work of others.
