Problem
The head of your state department of corrections wants to close the state's oldest prison, now located in the state capitol; constructed in the 1920's, it is now extremely dangerous as well as very expensive to operate. Although the new location would be in a community that is 50 miles away, it would be nearer the state capitol and offer a considerably larger labor pool of prospective prison employees as well as a much better public transportation system.
Being politically astute (good at judging situations and people), the director asks you to conduct a force-field analysis., looking at both communities to determine opposition and support for the move.
Explain and describe at least three forces and/or factors that are likely to support the decision to relocate the prison and three that are likely to oppose it.
