The was an implied relationship with the topic to the audience because I believe that everyone in the class wears shoes so they should care what the effects could possibly be. My speech was well organized in the way that we know what people are doing wrong to cause bad effects on your health by shoes to learning the effects specific shoes can do to your health to learning ways to prevent any effects from occurring.

1. This informative speech on “The Cause of Homelessness “is very Inform able and worth listening to, because in today’s economy it could be you or me. Some seem to think homelessness is choice.
