      Answer Example

      "My home state of Ohio reports drug use as the most urgent health problem. In fact, in 2017, Ohio had the second-highest rate in the U.S of drug overdose deaths involving opioids. More specifically, Ohio has seen a significant boost in deaths due to synthetic opioids such as fentanyl. This opioid use puts a strain on the state in many social and economical ways. As a healthcare professional, I desire to make a difference by creating community coalitions to focus directly on the opioid crisis. I plan to recruit members from the healthcare community, faith community, schools, public health, and law enforcement to commit to recovering communities. These coalitions will join forces and provide information, implement action plans, and conduct educational sessions for youth, campaigning through high-risk communities before youth become too far involved in opioid drug use."
