Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Assessing need provides the reasons and rationale for the program plan. The need within the community must be assessed before alternatives can be proposed or weighed, or the details of the costs and resources can be determined.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Using focus groups to determine the method of cleanup for contaminated groundwater in a neighborhood would be very time consuming. Disadvantages of surveys are that they are expen-sive and technically demanding. Key informants have the disadvantage of the bias of the leaders.
