Project Purpose Statement – Provide a declarative sentence or two which summarizes the specific topic and goals of the project.

Since your capstone proposal has to be an intervention, you want to do more than identify the barriers impeding women from seeking treatment but you may want to look at provider adherence to implementing EBP practice in treating depression (Primary care providers’ adherence to treatment guidelines for the management of depression in a rural clinic) or propose a more efficient screening tool for depression and identify how to assess that tools effectiveness (Improvement of screening rates for depression in a primary care clinic).
