 The following questions may help direct your reading:

 § Who initiates privatization of a HHS service / program?

 § What are the typical program information requirements?

 § Who can approve a privatization effort?

 Your post should contain a minimum of 300 words. Respond to a minimum of two of your classmates’ postings.

 Budget Allocations . Help, human services, and care are provided in many formats. However, to be considered under the umbrella of health and human services, the help must be provided by some type of formal organization. The Federal Government, the major provider of social welfare benefits, allocates 90% of the Federal budget for social programs.
