• Issue: Provide a brief overview of the context of your issue. What statistics do we need to know? Why is this an important issue? What is already being done about this issue?

• Message: What is the subtext of the campaign? In other words, what messages are you communicating by the headline? Explain.
• Audience: With whom is your campaign designed to communicate? Why will your headline and approach be effective with that audience?
• Approach: What exactly will you do in this campaign? Will you focus on social media, or public space? Will you use videos, photos, music, or other media? Will you use Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube? Maybe you want to go out into the world and plan a concrete physical campaign similar to “You Are Beautiful” or “Before I Die.” Describe your chosen approach in detail. If you would be implementing your campaign in public space, describe where you would situate it, and why. Explain why your approach will be effective.

Use the internet to identify sources for your materials and supplies, and to approximate costs. Include citations for any informational resources you use.
• Method of Evaluation: If you implement your plan, how will you know if it is successful at improving things in the area you are addressing? What specific outcomes will prove that your campaign has been effective?
• Concluding Plea: Summarize your argument in one concluding paragraph and make it as persuasive as possible. Why is YOUR chosen issue so important, and why will YOUR campaign design be effective? Finally, why are YOU the right person to put this plan into action?
• Reference List: Be sure to correctly cite any quotes or statistics. Use APA style. Use a minimum of 3 different, reliable sources. Include both in-text citations within your essay as well as a reference list at the end.
