The document discusses success stories and how to write them. It defines a success story as a narrative that shows how a program made a positive difference in people's lives. It should describe the situation, response, results including changes and benefits. The document provides tips on elements to include, such as who benefited, how they benefited, and how the program intervention made a difference. It also gives recommendations for writing style and taking photographs to illustrate the story.

Response 1
Respond
in one or more of the following ways:
·
Add to your colleague's explanation of how gender identity affects an individual's life-span development.
·
Explain whether you might use your colleague's strategy for applying the concept of gender identity to social work practice. Provide support for your position.
Colleague 1: AS
A knew understanding that I gained from the learning resources about gender identity is that it is very important for people who are a sexual minority to find a community LGB people (Brewster & Moradi, 2010). People who identify as LGB would benefit from being in an LGB community because they can see that people have had the same struggles as them, and possibly meet people that overcome these struggles. They can learn from others, and learn to be more comfortable in their lifestyle. Being a part of the LGB community in young and middle adulthood is very hard, because this is the time of your life where you are starting your career or established in your career. It could be detrimental to come out as Lesbian, Gay or Bisexual in your workplace because you risk discrimination or losing opportunities (Brewster & Moradi, 2010). As a person in the LGB community, in young and middle adulthood, you are constantly thinking about how your sexual or gender identity could negatively affect your life.
As a social worker, I would use this knowledge to better understand my client. I can understand their motivation and the source of their feelings. With this information, I will be able to identify the proper intervention to use with my client. A client who may be struggling with gender identity may need guidance and support. Being competent on this topic will help me to be able to help that client and to better be able to choose an intervention method that fits the client. I will also know when to advocate for my client, and the proper way to advocate for my client.

Social Security and Public Assistance Programs
Social Security is different from public assistance programs in the manner that it is money earned from working; whereas, the public assistance programs are entitlements as a citizen without technically having to have a job prior to using the programs. “To qualify for benefits, you must earn credits by working and paying Social Security taxes. The number of credits you need to qualify depends on your age and the type of benefit for.
