Rape, a matter which has been on the ascent, and the measurements information are expanding once in a while. Our contextual investigation presents a very submitting situation as these two people resemble in a relationship, however from the woman's case, the partner did a rape (Intentionally contacting someone else without her assent and without wanting to) (Cantor et al., 2019). An administrator and their manager gave this matter can accompany a ton of obligation as it requires hearing according to the two sides' perspectives. It isn't normal to hear a rape case among accomplices, and finding out about it can have a great deal behind the scenes; either viciousness had emerged before or possibly they are not on great conditions. Notwithstanding, since close accomplices additionally have the most noteworthy sexual savagery, I can offer them guidance and caution the honorable man against this movement as more extreme outcomes can come up because of the kind of action. Being empathetic and deferential is the thing that I can perceive the noble man to have as this will have a decent relationship for the two of them.

These demands reflect the possible need for public policy development.
Draft and present to your group two possible policy proposals that respond to the specific public demands you identified in your community in the previous assignment.
(Due Sunday November 2)
These demands may apply to businesses, non-profit organizations, or government.
Utilize the document entitled, "Elements of a Standard Policy Statement," which is located in your Social Policy Toolbox, to guide your development of these proposals.
Include a title for each proposal.
Meet with your group during this week.
Each member of your group will offer each of their public policy proposals for review.
Acting in a collaborative capacity, offer suggestions concerning the public policy proposals of each of your peers and recommend to each presenter a primary policy that should be developed and used to complete the remaining project assignments.

Write a 3–5-page essay analyzing from a sociological perspective a chosen diversity issue covered in the media.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
SHOW LESS
Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

Some sociologists who study the media argue that the media is a reflection of what is already happening in society, while others contend that the media manipulates its audience by portraying events or issues with a particular slant or goal in mind. What do you think? Does the media reflect what is already going on in society, or.

The document discusses the roles of provincial and national government agencies in ecological profiling. The province can provide common data sources, methodology and templates to facilitate analysis across local government units. National agencies can provide tools, training, data and maps to local governments to assist with data gathering, analysis and monitoring of development issues. Suggested sources of data include inventories, surveys, census data, community monitoring systems, local governance performance monitoring and donor project reports. The document also discusses major changes over decades that impact rural classification systems, such as economic restructuring, changes to the state, new institutional arrangements and growing inequality.

National agencies can provide tools, training, data and maps to local governments to assist with data gathering, analysis and monitoring of development issues. Suggested sources of data include inventories, surveys, census data, community monitoring systems, local governance performance monitoring and donor project reports. The document also discusses major changes over decades that impact rural classification systems, such as economic restructuring, changes to the state, new institutional arrangements and growing inequality.
Assignment Evidence-Based Treatments for Individuals Living Wit.docx
Assignment: Evidence-Based Treatments for Individuals Living With a Diagnosis of Schizophrenia
There is an overall misunderstanding that those living with a very serious mental disorder are not able to lead normal successful lives. Since the deinstitutionalization movement, there has been a development of evidence-based treatments that assist individuals living with a serious mental illness. This is particularly true in the area of schizophrenia. Treatment models that have focused on individuals living with schizophrenia have helped these individuals lead very productive lives.
For this Assignment
, research the literature for evidence-based treatment models that are designed to help individuals living with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Find an article focused on seeking such treatments that assist the individual with community integration, employment, social skills, family relationships, and/or daily living skills.
Assignment (2–4 pages, APA format)
Your paper should include:
· A summary of the article. Include in your summary the underlying theory and treatment objectives of the intervention
References (use 3 or more)
Assignment 2:
Community Assessment
The purpose of this assignment is to broaden your understanding of a community, develop analytical skills regarding communities in relation to specific populations and their needs, and to better plan and develop interventions to address issues and problems facing the community.
This assignment has three parts: Part I Understanding Your Community, where you will consider the current demographics of the community and analyze how that has changed over the past 20 years; Part II Community Assessment, where you assess your community and a problem within your community; and Part III Community Action Plan, where you develop a specific action plan to address the problem you identified. As you reflect on the learning resources and concepts from Weeks 1-4, be sure to explain what you have learned about the policy’s effect on various groups. Consider how will this knowledge assist you with your community action plan.
Submit
a 4page paper. The paper needs to be well-researched and written using APA guidelines. Data should come from at least five sources.
Part I: Understanding your Community
· Analyze how your community has changed over the past 20 years. Use policy and community concepts and theories from the learning resources to support your analysis.
· Describe your community, using research and statistics to describe socio-demographic make-up. (For example: How many persons live in the city and/or in the town? What were/are their cultural/racial characteristics? What were/are their incomes, ages, political affiliations, etc.?)
Part II: Community Assessment
· Describe a problem that the community is currently experiencing.
o Assess the duration, intensity, and frequency of the problem.
o Analyze the probable etiology of the problem, supporting your analysis with resource.
This assignment will ask you to provide a comprehensive overview of .docx
This assignment will ask you to provide a comprehensive overview of the community that you have chosen. Only by knowing the people, their history, values, problems, and concerns will you be able to gain an understanding of the role you can play in their lives.
In preparation for the final project in this course where you will write a grant proposal with an accompanying presentation, you will need to develop a clear understanding of the community you seek to serve with your project. In this assignment, you will construct a specific service project that meets the needs of the particular community it engages. Use a variety of sources to establish a preliminary picture of the community in order to gauge the concerns of actual members within the community itself.
Do the following:
Compile research from both scholarly as well as local sources such as newspaper articles, interviews, town-meeting notes, etc., to develop a “big picture” of the community.
Conduct research, including interviews, questionnaires, and surveys, in the field to supplement this information if such information will help in further developing your understanding of the community.
Here are some topics to help guide your research:
History:
When was the community started?
Why was it started?
What has been the main economic base for the community? Has it changed since its founding? If so, how has this affected the community?
What about the history of minority groups in the area?
People:
Who are the important people (elected officials, church leaders, community leaders, etc.)?
Who works with these individuals to support their efforts (community organizations, churches, non-profit organizations, local governments, etc.)?
Groups:
What are the various groups within the community (geographic, social, racial, ethnic, etc.)?
Who represents the interests of each? Are there any particular organizations that serve particular groups?
How do these groups interact with one another? Are there groups that tend to work together or at cross-purposes? If so, identify how and why such relationships develop.
Are there any particular groups that undertake work of a similar nature as your proposed project?
Problems:
What problems do you see?
What problems do the others see?
What problems do the important people that you identified see?
What problems do government officials see?
What problems do the smaller groups within the community see?
Compile your research into a paper. Include the following details:
An introduction of your proposed action.
An assessment of the needs of the particular community you seek to serve based on the research conducted above.
An overview of the potential impact this plan might have on the community (both positive and negative).
An assessment of how your initial proposal can be modified to meet these particular concerns.

I. INTRODUCTION to the ASSIGNMENT
Institutionalized Inequalities Persists
Sociology reveals that we live in a stratified society. An individual person’s access to social resources and opportunities varies markedly depending on numerous
factors
, including those
associated with their social location at the always intersecting systems of institutionalized inequalities. Class, race, ethnicity, gender, nationality, religion, and sexual orientation
are important predictors of patterned outcomes at the social group level, across institutions. Examining these arenas at a macro level allows sociologists to achieve a more sophisticated grasp of their workings and the larger social structural dynamics at play. This higher level thinking is also necessary to the creation of well-informed strategies designed to create new forms of justice. Half measures are arguably problematic. As Malcom X once said, "If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress. If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made" (1964, but as relevant as ever today).
People Make History
Sociology also reveals that people make history. We are historical agents who help (re)produce and (potentially) transform institutions and culture moment-to-moment throughout our days perpetually. As historical agents, we have the capacity to contribute to positive change in our daily lives. A more just and sustainable world is possible and looming. “Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing." (
Arundhati Roy)
Social Policy is an Excellent Avenue for Concrete and Critically Informed Social Change.
Social policy is an excellent avenue for achieving social justice
because it moves human and economic resources and facilitates enacting concrete actions for concrete change. Importantly, it allocates our combined social wealth (tax dollars, human energy). We can continue to invest policy dollars and energy into war, policing, punishment, and corporate welfare--deepening the existing social relationships and macro patterns of unequal power. Another route, already underway, is to shift our resources toward policy efforts that address social inequities at their roots, and nourish healthy communities. Your readings in the final section of the class include policy platforms that you may consider models for this paper (though your proposal will necessarily be much smaller in scope, given word count limits).
Other strategies for social change include but are not limited to
legislation
(lawmaking by representative government or other governmental bodies),
litigation
(using the courts),
research
(the work of think tanks, universities, organizations, activists),
community organizing
(movement building; awareness-building;.

The last topic to be covered in this course is Chapter 14, Social Movements.
Choose to view one of the movies in this Unit, either
The Garden
(in English and somein Spanish with English subtitles) or
Holding Ground Parts 1 and 2.
Then consider the following social justice issues listed below that have impacted physiological, social, psychological and spiritual human behavior and development on the macro (societal) and mezzo (family and community) person and environmental dimensions of human functioning. These issues could serve as the foundation to the creation of a social movement in your local (city, small town), state, or federal level. Choose a topic that you have some passion for that you or others known to you have experienced. If you have your own topic, not on the list, check with the Instructor.
Some examples are:
Medical health care costs
Disability accessibility
Housing conditions (lack of or segregated sub-standard housing and rent)
Environmental air/ground conditions (e.g. sinkholes in a neighborhood, ground pollution causing birth defects, etc.)
Nutrition needs (e.g. hunger, poverty, etc.)
Political representation (e.g. lack of access to voter registration, municipal representation, or suppression)
Safety measures - (e.g. police profiling, lack of police patrols, neighborhood violence, racial violence)
Unemployment – e.g. layoffs, segregated workplaces by gender/race/age
Poverty – low income, lack of health insurance, lack of access to payment for medications.
High property taxes
Neglected or segregated schools
Banking and regulatory practices that may profile or discriminate against specified populations
Discriminatory practices involving vulnerable minority populations
Toxic air/water pollution
Conduct a literature review of 10 peer-reviewed sources to research the social justice aspects of your chosen issue and its consequences - e.g. physiological, political, social, psychological, and spiritual consequences on the macro (societal, community) and mezzo (family and community) personal and environmental dimensions. Integrate by way of in-text cited content the research findings into your paper’s content from the Hutchison text - e.g. Chapters 13 on Communities and Chapter 14 on Social Movement and from the supplemental sources. Instructions on how to write a literature review is posted under Assignments. (See above.)
Respond to the following:Explain historically how this issue came to be and the current conditions that are impacting on what specific population/s of people. Discuss the importance of your issue. “What are the two or three cultural frames that would motivate people to engage in collective action on this issue….How important do you think emotions are in motivating people to participate in [this] social movement activity (Hutchison, 2019, 450)?” Explain and support your rationale by way of in-text cited content.

Application The Impact of ControversyControversies often
Application: The Impact of Controversy
Controversies often bring together individuals with varying opinions and backgrounds. Although controversy is often considered negative, there can be positive outcomes for those involved as well. To work within American government is to work within controversy. How individuals or representatives of organizations respond to controversy can influence public opinion, elections, and, ultimately, public policy.
For this assignment, review the controversies presented in the news broadcast in the virtual community of New Harbor. Think about which of the controversies has the most impact on the role you adopted for this course. Keep in mind that, while the controversies may not directly involve your role, any controversy in a community impacts, positively or negatively, all members and organizations within that community.
To prepare for this assignment:
Review the article, "We Can't Handle the Truth." Consider the media and public reaction to the controversies recounted in the article and how the controversies impacted political campaigns and individual political careers.
Review this week's news broadcast in the virtual community, focusing on the impact of the controversies covered.
Consider how each controversy specifically impacts your role in the virtual community, and decide which controversy has the strongest and most direct impact on your role.
The assignment (2 pages):
Select one of the controversies from this week's news broadcast in the virtual community.
Explain how this controversy might impact your role both positively and negatively.
Explain the steps you would take, or advise your candidate or organization to take, in order to address and/or mitigate this controversy.

Social Work, Politics, and Social Policy Education Applying
Social Work, Politics, and Social Policy Education: Applying
a Multidimensional Framework of Power
Amy Krings , Vincent Fusaro , Kerri Leyda Nicoll, and Na Youn Lee
ABSTRACT
The call to promote social justice sets the social work profession in
a political context. In an effort to enhance social workers’ preparedness to
engage in political advocacy, this article calls on educators to integrate
a broad theoretical understanding of power into social policy curricula. We
suggest the use of a multidimensional conceptualization of power that
emphasizes mechanisms of decision making, agenda control, and attitude
formation. We then apply these mechanisms to demonstrate how two
prominent features of contemporary politics—party polarization and
racially biased attitudes—affect the ability of social workers to influence
policy. Finally, we suggest content that social work educators can integrate
to prepare future social workers to engage in strategic and effective social
justice advocacy.
ARTICLE HISTORY
Accepted: January 2018
As part of their broader mandate, codified in the National Association of Social Workers (2017)
Code of Ethics, social workers are called to advance social and economic justice by participating in
political action with, or on behalf of, disadvantaged groups. The goals of such action are broad
democratic participation, a fair distribution of power and resources, and an equitable distribution of
opportunities (Reisch & Garvin, 2016). To achieve these goals, social workers must go beyond an
analysis of how existing policies reinforce or reduce social problems to recognize and strategically
engage with the power embedded in political processes themselves. This power not only influences
how problems are addressed or ignored but also how they are constructed and understood. Thus, to
be effective practitioners and change agents, it is necessary for social workers to “see power as central
to understanding and addressing social problems and human needs” (Fisher, 1995, p. 196).
At its inception, the social work profession emerged as a leader in shaping policies and programs
that improved the health and well-being of disadvantaged people and families. Social workers played
key roles in policy areas such as aid to families, Social Security, the juvenile court system, minimum
wage, and unemployment insurance (Axinn & Stern, 2012). Over time, external pressures, including
austerity-driven policies that emphasize market-based approaches to social service delivery and the
reduction of the social safety net, have limited the range of microlevel interventions and margin-
alized mezzo- and macrolevel community and policy practice (Abramovitz & Sherraden, 2016;
Reisch, 2000). Consequently, many social work educators have expressed concern that the profession
has become increasingly depoliticized and decontextualized by focusing disproportionately on
individual interventions at the expense of systematic interventions that could help individuals an ...

Students are required to complete a policy analysis. Students will engage in critically analyzing a policy in understanding their role in policy development and implementation within their practice settings at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels, and ways they will actively engage in policy to effect change within practice settings. Students are required to:
Select and study a specific social policy on the local, state, or federal level that promotes social, economic, environmental justice, peace, or equity.
Research the existing literature on the issues of your selected policy. Discuss if the policy was developed by legislators, congressional persons, or interested parties who had a mutually agreed-on focus for its development with desired outcomes. Discuss advocacy skills that were evident in the literature that was used to advocate for human rights and social and economic, and environmental justice.
Critically analyze the policy using cognitive and affective processes (e.g., thinking, reasoning, emotions, feelings, etc.)
Write a
3-4 page
critical analysis paper of the policy. In two paragraphs, briefly describe the policy content, level of government (local, state, federal) and main issue(s) and goals. Discuss and critically analyze the arguments for and against the issue (s), underlying values, beliefs, and assumptions reflected in the policy, how would you modify the policy to be more effectively meet its goals, and what makes the issue(s) political. Also discuss strategies within the policy to promote human and civil rights. Briefly discuss implications of the policy and ways social workers will use the policy to engage in practices to advocate and advance social, economic, and environmental justice.

Problem
Iris a 78-year-old divorced lady who lives alone and relies on a pension from the pace she used to work as an elementary teacher and the social security retirement benefits. Two years ago her husband divorced her for a younger woman and Iris was not blessed with any child. Iris is forgetful, old, and in need of someone to talk to despite claiming to be independent. Iris is also going through depression because of being divorced by her husband abruptly in the last two years and also because she misses her independence because she now needs to stay in a facility that can provide care for her as it gets harder for her to take care of herself. This paper will look into a policy that can help Iris control and take care of herself.
Solution
One of the ways of helping Iris is to provide a way in which she can have company. A policy that will provide or extend the civic engagement of adults will go a long way into helping Iris to extend her stay at the facility she was sent to. This policy should help improve her wellbeing because she feels loneliness because Iris is still dealing with the divorce, she went through which happened abruptly without warning. Policymakers should ensure this is considered so as to give her and other older people at the center time to heal and focus on their health rather than missing home (Zarbo, et al, 2017). The policy should also focus on restructuring health care systems so that those who receive low pensions and retirement benefits can get something that will help them receive proper medical aid. The medical care system should search for ways to increase financial incentives especially for those from low-income families so that they can be able to access medical aid that encompasses a variety of medications. For instance, Iris cannot use the money she gets as a pension to pay for all her medical bills as well as the bills waiting for her at home because she obviously left a house when s.

Assignment: Evidence-Based Treatments for Individuals Living With a Diagnosis of Schizophrenia
There is an overall misunderstanding that those living with a very serious mental disorder are not able to lead normal successful lives. Since the deinstitutionalization movement, there has been a development of evidence-based treatments that assist individuals living with a serious mental illness. This is particularly true in the area of schizophrenia. Treatment models that have focused on individuals living with schizophrenia have helped these individuals lead very productive lives.
For this Assignment
, research the literature for evidence-based treatment models that are designed to help individuals living with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Find an article focused on seeking such treatments that assist the individual with community integration, employment, social skills, family relationships, and/or daily living skills.
Assignment (2–4 pages, APA format)
Your paper should include:
· A summary of the article. Include in your summary the underlying theory and treatment objectives of the intervention

Assignment 2:
Community Assessment
The purpose of this assignment is to broaden your understanding of a community, develop analytical skills regarding communities in relation to specific populations and their needs, and to better plan and develop interventions to address issues and problems facing the community.
This assignment has three parts: Part I Understanding Your Community, where you will consider the current demographics of the community and analyze how that has changed over the past 20 years; Part II Community Assessment, where you assess your community and a problem within your community; and Part III Community Action Plan, where you develop a specific action plan to address the problem you identified. As you reflect on the learning resources and concepts from Weeks 1-4, be sure to explain what you have learned about the policy’s effect on various groups. Consider how will this knowledge assist you with your community action plan.
Submit
a 4page paper. The paper needs to be well-researched and written using APA guidelines. Data should come from at least five sources.
Part I: Understanding your Community
· Analyze how your community has changed over the past 20 years. Use policy and community concepts and theories from the learning resources to support your analysis.
· Describe your community, using research and statistics to describe socio-demographic make-up. (For example: How many persons live in the city and/or in the town? What were/are their cultural/racial characteristics? What were/are their incomes, ages, political affiliations, etc.?)
Part II: Community Assessment
· Describe a problem that the community is currently experiencing.
o Assess the duration, intensity, and frequency of the problem.
o Analyze the probable etiology of the problem, supporting your analysis with resource.
This assignment will ask you to provide a comprehensive overview of .docx
This assignment will ask you to provide a comprehensive overview of the community that you have chosen. Only by knowing the people, their history, values, problems, and concerns will you be able to gain an understanding of the role you can play in their lives.
In preparation for the final project in this course where you will write a grant proposal with an accompanying presentation, you will need to develop a clear understanding of the community you seek to serve with your project. In this assignment, you will construct a specific service project that meets the needs of the particular community it engages. Use a variety of sources to establish a preliminary picture of the community in order to gauge the concerns of actual members within the community itself.
Do the following:
Compile research from both scholarly as well as local sources such as newspaper articles, interviews, town-meeting notes, etc., to develop a “big picture” of the community.
Conduct research, including interviews, questionnaires, and surveys, in the field to supplement this information if such information will help in further developing your understanding of the community.
Here are some topics to help guide your research:
History:
When was the community started?
Why was it started?
What has been the main economic base for the community? Has it changed since its founding? If so, how has this affected the community?
What about the history of minority groups in the area?
People:
Who are the important people (elected officials, church leaders, community leaders, etc.)?
Who works with these individuals to support their efforts (community organizations, churches, non-profit organizations, local governments, etc.)?
Groups:
What are the various groups within the community (geographic, social, racial, ethnic, etc.)?
Who represents the interests of each? Are there any particular organizations that serve particular groups?
How do these groups interact with one another? Are there groups that tend to work together or at cross-purposes? If so, identify how and why such relationships develop.
Are there any particular groups that undertake work of a similar nature as your proposed project?
Problems:
What problems do you see?
What problems do the others see?
What problems do the important people that you identified see?
What problems do government officials see?
What problems do the smaller groups within the community see?
Compile your research into a paper. Include the following details:
An introduction of your proposed action.
An assessment of the needs of the particular community you seek to serve based on the research conducted above.
An overview of the potential impact this plan might have on the community (both positive and negative).
An assessment of how your initial proposal can be modified to meet these particular concerns.

I. INTRODUCTION to the ASSIGNMENT
Institutionalized Inequalities Persists
Sociology reveals that we live in a stratified society. An individual person’s access to social resources and opportunities varies markedly depending on numerous
factors
, including those
associated with their social location at the always intersecting systems of institutionalized inequalities. Class, race, ethnicity, gender, nationality, religion, and sexual orientation
are important predictors of patterned outcomes at the social group level, across institutions. Examining these arenas at a macro level allows sociologists to achieve a more sophisticated grasp of their workings and the larger social structural dynamics at play. This higher level thinking is also necessary to the creation of well-informed strategies designed to create new forms of justice. Half measures are arguably problematic. As Malcom X once said, "If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress. If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made" (1964, but as relevant as ever today).
People Make History
Sociology also reveals that people make history. We are historical agents who help (re)produce and (potentially) transform institutions and culture moment-to-moment throughout our days perpetually. As historical agents, we have the capacity to contribute to positive change in our daily lives. A more just and sustainable world is possible and looming. “Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing." (
Arundhati Roy)
Social Policy is an Excellent Avenue for Concrete and Critically Informed Social Change.
Social policy is an excellent avenue for achieving social justice
because it moves human and economic resources and facilitates enacting concrete actions for concrete change. Importantly, it allocates our combined social wealth (tax dollars, human energy). We can continue to invest policy dollars and energy into war, policing, punishment, and corporate welfare--deepening the existing social relationships and macro patterns of unequal power. Another route, already underway, is to shift our resources toward policy efforts that address social inequities at their roots, and nourish healthy communities. Your readings in the final section of the class include policy platforms that you may consider models for this paper (though your proposal will necessarily be much smaller in scope, given word count limits).
Other strategies for social change include but are not limited to
legislation
(lawmaking by representative government or other governmental bodies),
litigation
(using the courts),
research
(the work of think tanks, universities, organizations, activists),
community organizing
(movement building; awareness-building;.

The Garden
(in English and somein Spanish with English subtitles) or
Holding Ground Parts 1 and 2.
Then consider the following social justice issues listed below that have impacted physiological, social, psychological and spiritual human behavior and development on the macro (societal) and mezzo (family and community) person and environmental dimensions of human functioning. These issues could serve as the foundation to the creation of a social movement in your local (city, small town), state, or federal level. Choose a topic that you have some passion for that you or others known to you have experienced. If you have your own topic, not on the list, check with the Instructor.
Some examples are:
Medical health care costs
Disability accessibility

Environmental air/ground conditions (e.g. sinkholes in a neighborhood, ground pollution causing birth defects, etc.)
Nutrition needs (e.g. hunger, poverty, etc.)
Political representation (e.g. lack of access to voter registration, municipal representation, or suppression)
Safety measures - (e.g. police profiling, lack of police patrols, neighborhood violence, racial violence)
Unemployment – e.g. layoffs, segregated workplaces by gender/race/age
Poverty – low income, lack of health insurance, lack of access to payment for medications.
High property taxes
Neglected or segregated schools
Banking and regulatory practices that may profile or discriminate against specified populations
Discriminatory practices involving vulnerable minority populations
Toxic air/water pollution
Conduct a literature review of 10 peer-reviewed sources to research the social justice aspects of your chosen issue and its consequences - e.g. physiological, political, social, psychological, and spiritual consequences on the macro (societal, community) and mezzo (family and community) personal and environmental dimensions. Integrate by way of in-text cited content the research findings into your paper’s content from the Hutchison text - e.g. Chapters 13 on Communities and Chapter 14 on Social Movement and from the supplemental sources. Instructions on how to write a literature review is posted under Assignments. (See above.)
Respond to the following:Explain historically how this issue came to be and the current conditions that are impacting on what specific population/s of people. Discuss the importance of your issue. “What are the two or three cultural frames that would motivate people to engage in collective action on this issue….How important do you think emotions are in motivating people to participate in [this] social movement activity (Hutchison, 2019, 450)?” Explain and support your rationale by way of in-text cited content.

Application The Impact of ControversyControversies often
Application: The Impact of Controversy
Controversies often bring together individuals with varying opinions and backgrounds. Although controversy is often considered negative, there can be positive outcomes for those involved as well. To work within American government is to work within controversy. How individuals or representatives of organizations respond to controversy can influence public opinion, elections, and, ultimately, public policy.
For this assignment, review the controversies presented in the news broadcast in the virtual community of New Harbor. Think about which of the controversies has the most impact on the role you adopted for this course. Keep in mind that, while the controversies may not directly involve your role, any controversy in a community impacts, positively or negatively, all members and organizations within that community.
To prepare for this assignment:
Review the article, "We Can't Handle the Truth." Consider the media and public reaction to the controversies recounted in the article and how the controversies impacted political campaigns and individual political careers.
Review this week's news broadcast in the virtual community, focusing on the impact of the controversies covered.
Consider how each controversy specifically impacts your role in the virtual community, and decide which controversy has the strongest and most direct impact on your role.
The assignment (2 pages):
Select one of the controversies from this week's news broadcast in the virtual community.
Explain how this controversy might impact your role both positively and negatively.
Explain the steps you would take, or advise your candidate or organization to take, in order to address and/or mitigate this controversy.

Social Work, Politics, and Social Policy Education Applying
Social Work, Politics, and Social Policy Education: Applying
a Multidimensional Framework of Power
Amy Krings , Vincent Fusaro , Kerri Leyda Nicoll, and Na Youn Lee
ABSTRACT
The call to promote social justice sets the social work profession in
a political context. In an effort to enhance social workers’ preparedness to
engage in political advocacy, this article calls on educators to integrate
a broad theoretical understanding of power into social policy curricula. We
suggest the use of a multidimensional conceptualization of power that
emphasizes mechanisms of decision making, agenda control, and attitude
formation. We then apply these mechanisms to demonstrate how two
prominent features of contemporary politics—party polarization and
racially biased attitudes—affect the ability of social workers to influence
policy. Finally, we suggest content that social work educators can integrate
to prepare future social workers to engage in strategic and effective social
justice advocacy.
ARTICLE HISTORY
Accepted: January 2018
As part of their broader mandate, codified in the National Association of Social Workers (2017)
Code of Ethics, social workers are called to advance social and economic justice by participating in
political action with, or on behalf of, disadvantaged groups. The goals of such action are broad
democratic participation, a fair distribution of power and resources, and an equitable distribution of
opportunities (Reisch & Garvin, 2016). To achieve these goals, social workers must go beyond an
analysis of how existing policies reinforce or reduce social problems to recognize and strategically
engage with the power embedded in political processes themselves. This power not only influences
how problems are addressed or ignored but also how they are constructed and understood. Thus, to
be effective practitioners and change agents, it is necessary for social workers to “see power as central
to understanding and addressing social problems and human needs” (Fisher, 1995, p. 196).
At its inception, the social work profession emerged as a leader in shaping policies and programs
that improved the health and well-being of disadvantaged people and families. Social workers played
key roles in policy areas such as aid to families, Social Security, the juvenile court system, minimum
wage, and unemployment insurance (Axinn & Stern, 2012). Over time, external pressures, including
austerity-driven policies that emphasize market-based approaches to social service delivery and the
reduction of the social safety net, have limited the range of microlevel interventions and margin-
alized mezzo- and macrolevel community and policy practice (Abramovitz & Sherraden, 2016;
Reisch, 2000). Consequently, many social work educators have expressed concern that the profession
has become increasingly depoliticized and decontextualized by focusing disproportionately on
individual interventions at the expense of systematic interventions that could help individuals an ...

Students are required to complete a policy analysis. Students will engage in critically analyzing a policy in understanding their role in policy development and implementation within their practice settings at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels, and ways they will actively engage in policy to effect change within practice settings. Students are required to:
Select and study a specific social policy on the local, state, or federal level that promotes social, economic, environmental justice, peace, or equity.
Research the existing literature on the issues of your selected policy. Discuss if the policy was developed by legislators, congressional persons, or interested parties who had a mutually agreed-on focus for its development with desired outcomes. Discuss advocacy skills that were evident in the literature that was used to advocate for human rights and social and economic, and environmental justice.
Critically analyze the policy using cognitive and affective processes (e.g., thinking, reasoning, emotions, feelings, etc.)
Write a
3-4 page
critical analysis paper of the policy. In two paragraphs, briefly describe the policy content, level of government (local, state, federal) and main issue(s) and goals. Discuss and critically analyze the arguments for and against the issue (s), underlying values, beliefs, and assumptions reflected in the policy, how would you modify the policy to be more effectively meet its goals, and what makes the issue(s) political. Also discuss strategies within the policy to promote human and civil rights. Briefly discuss implications of the policy and ways social workers will use the policy to engage in practices to advocate and advance social, economic, and environmental justice.

Problem
Iris a 78-year-old divorced lady who lives alone and relies on a pension from the pace she used to work as an elementary teacher and the social security retirement benefits. Two years ago her husband divorced her for a younger woman and Iris was not blessed with any child. Iris is forgetful, old, and in need of someone to talk to despite claiming to be independent. Iris is also going through depression because of being divorced by her husband abruptly in the last two years and also because she misses her independence because she now needs to stay in a facility that can provide care for her as it gets harder for her to take care of herself. This paper will look into a policy that can help Iris control and take care of herself.
Solution
One of the ways of helping Iris is to provide a way in which she can have company. A policy that will provide or extend the civic engagement of adults will go a long way into helping Iris to extend her stay at the facility she was sent to. This policy should help improve her wellbeing because she feels loneliness because Iris is still dealing with the divorce, she went through which happened abruptly without warning. Policymakers should ensure this is considered so as to give her and other older people at the center time to heal and focus on their health rather than missing home (Zarbo, et al, 2017). The policy should also focus on restructuring health care systems so that those who receive low pensions and retirement benefits can get something that will help them receive proper medical aid. The medical care system should search for ways to increase financial incentives especially for those from low-income families so that they can be able to access medical aid that encompasses a variety of medications. For instance, Iris cannot use the money she gets as a pension to pay for all her medical bills as well as the bills waiting for her at home because she obviously left a house when s.

SOCW 6311 wk 6 Discussion: Program Evaluation: Benefits and Concerns of Stakeholders
All questions in bold then answers 300 to 500 words without questions
Dudley (2014) points out that social work practice is usually embedded in programs. While you looked at practice evaluation using single-subject design in Week 3, this week, you shift focus to program evaluation. Program evaluation serves many purposes, including accountability to funders and to the public. Often, funding sources such as government agencies or private foundations requires periodic program evaluations. These evaluations can help provide answers to many different questions, and can contribute to improvement of services. There are a variety of program evaluation models that are appropriate for addressing different questions as well as facilitating the collection and analysis of many different types of data.
To prepare for this Discussion, identify a program within an agency with which you are familiar, which could benefit from process evaluation and outcome evaluation. You do not need to identify the agency in your post. Also, review the different evaluation models highlighted in this week’s resources (
needs assessment, program monitoring, client satisfaction study, outcome evaluation, or cost benefit study).

Needs assessments are a form of research conducted to gather information about the needs of a population or a group in a community (Tutty & Rothery, 2010, p. 149). One purpose of a needs assessment is to explore in more depth whether a new program within an organization or agency is needed (Dudley, 2014, p. 117). Key questions of this type of needs assessment may revolve around: (1) whether there are enough prospective clients to warrant this type of program, (2) the different activities or programs that the respondents would be interested in using, priorities for some activities over others, (3) importance of the activities, and (4) times in which this program would be desired and used (Dudley, 2014, p. 117). Potential barriers for the implementation of a new program should also be assessed to ensure the best possible outcome. Some barriers to services could include factors such as: location, costs, potential need for fees, and possible psychological issues related to such things. The following is an assessment of an intensive outpatient program for youth, and a potential need that is currently being unmet.
Post a needs assessment plan for a potential program of your choice that meets a currently unmet need. Describe the unmet need and how current information supports your position that a needs assessment is warranted.

Assignment: Planning a Needs Assessment II
One of the many reasons social workers conduct needs assessment is to provide support for new programs. Social workers have many methods available to collect necessary data for a needs assessment.
Social workers can use existing data from a wide range of sources, including local and national reports by government and nonprofit agencies, as well as computerized mapping resources. Social workers can gather new data through interviews and surveys with individuals and focus groups. This data can provide the evidence that supports the need for the program.
To prepare for this Assignment, review the needs assessment plans that you and your classmates generated for this week’s Discussion. Also, review the logic models that you created in Week 7 and any literature on needs of caregivers that you used to generate them. Consider the following to stimulate your thinking:
Getting information about the needs of the target population:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use (interview, focus group, questionnaire)?
Finding potential clients:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use?
Interacting with the target population:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use?
Submit
a 2- to 3-page paper outlining a hypothetical needs assessment related to the support group program for caregivers. Include the following:
The resources needed to operate this service
The program activities
The desired outcomes
A plan for gathering information about the population served
Justifications for your plans and decisions
A one-paragraph conclusion describing how you might conduct a follow-up to the needs assessment at the implementation stage of the program evaluation

Explain the potential benefits of the program evaluation that you proposed (both process and outcome).
The process benefits of monitoring the program helps with determining the strengths and weaknesses of the service program that is being implemented. It helps to discover ways to improve program services for the most effective outcomes. Additionally, monitoring the program presents accountability to ensure effectiveness and integrity of the program. “Program monitoring typically uses many different types of data-collection strategies, such as questionnaires given out to clients or staff members, individual and group interviewing of staff and clients, observations of pro-grams and specific interactions between staff members and clients, reviews of existing documents such as client files and personnel documents, and consulting experts (Dudley, 2014) (p.73).”

SOCW 6311 wk 6 assignment: Developing a Program Evaluation
To ensure the success of a program evaluation, a social worker must generate a specific detailed plan. That plan should describe the goal of the evaluation, the information needed, and the methods and analysis to be used. In addition, the plan should identify and address the concerns of stakeholders. A social worker should present information about the plan in a manner that the stakeholders can understand. This will help the social worker receive the support necessary for a successful evaluation.
To prepare for this Assignment, identify a program evaluation you would like to conduct for a program with which you are familiar. Consider the details of the evaluation, including the purpose, specific questions to address, and type of information to collect. Then, consider the stakeholders that would be involved in approving that evaluation. Review the resources for samples of program evaluations.
Submit the following:
A 1-page stakeholder analysis that identifies the stakeholders, their role in the agency and any concerns that they might have about the proposed program evaluation

Identify strengths in their analyses and strategies for presenting evaluation results to others.
You provided an insightful analysis of this particular process evaluation, and it seems that you were able to design a comprehensive presentation guideline. I agree with your tactic to break the presentation up into categories, and the categories you have selected seem to address the major components of the program, the evaluation itself, and the findings of said evaluation. You also provided a great analysis and summary of the PATHS program. The purpose of the program is clear, and the overarching purpose of the evaluation was made clear in your synopsis as well.
Identify ways your colleagues might improve their presentations.
You addressed outcome measures very well, however, there may have been some lacking information in regards to overall evaluation methods as a whole. Addressing factors such as who was collecting the data, how they were trained, how their training or standing could limit potential bias, and similar information. This may be an important piece of information that could help to provide audience members with a better understanding of the evaluation processes as a whole.
Identify potential needs or questions of the audience that they may not have considered.

RE: Discussion - Week 4
Post an interpretation of the case study’s conclusion that “the vocational rehabilitation intervention program may be effective at promoting full-time employment.”
The design described in this particular case study seeks to assess the effectiveness of a new vocational rehabilitation program for recently paroled prison inmates (Plummer, Makris and Brocksen, 201, p. 63). In order to evaluate this program, the evaluators implemented a quasi-experimental research design. In this design, participants are not randomly assigned to conditions or orders of conditions (Price et al., 2016). Ultimately, quasi-experimental research involves the manipulation of an independent variable without the random assignments of participants to conditions or orders of conditions (Price et al., 2016). It seems that this design is specifically more of a “nonequivalent” design. As they have two subject groups essentially, those 30 who are able to immediately participate in the program (“intervention” group) and the other 30 who are on the wait list (“comparison” group).
Based on the data presented, it seems that there may be some statistically significant relation between the independent variable (vocational rehabilitation intervention) and the dependent variable (employment). It’s important to note the use of “may” in “the vocational rehabilitation intervention program may be effective at promoting full-time employment…”. It is nearly impossible to “prove” a cause and effect relationship in regards to research in the social work field, due to humanistic components of the studies, and other aspects that may be out of the control of the researcher.
The researchers were able to include the outcome .

RE: Discussion - Week 2
Post an evaluation of the evidence-based practice that you selected for Jake. Describe the practice and evidence supporting it.
The evidence-based practice that I chose for Jake was Yoga Practice. The study was done on one participant, and it focused on the effects of yoga practice on brain function as well as PTSD symptoms. The practice of yoga was done over an eight week period and documented the improvements of the individual along the way (Yoga, 2015). The evidence that supports this practice is the participant had improved in several categories such as, anxiety levels, PTSD symptoms, abilities to focus, as well as multitasking skills (Yoga, 2015). It also made the individual participating in the study feel less angry and frustrated than he did at the beginning of his recovery process. He also attributed his success to the Yoga Practice and is now more comfortable practicing yoga (Yoga, 2015).
Explain why you think this intervention is appropriate for Jake.
I believe Yoga practice will offer positive effects for Jake for a number of reasons.
The first being that Jake and the participant share some of the same symptoms from PTSD. So, the idea would be to focus on mindfulness and see if this practice is compatible with Jake. Anoth.

The Characteristics of the evidence-based practice (EBP)
The evidence-based program is defined as the programs that are effective and this is based on the rigorous assessment. One of the key features of EBP is that they have been assessed thoroughly in an experimental or quasi-experimental study. The evaluation of the EBP has been subjected to critical peer review and this implies that a conclusion has been reached by the evaluation experts. The EBP requires the ability to differentiate between the unverified opinions concerning the psychosocial interventions and the facts about their effectiveness. It is involving the process of inquiry that is provided to the practitioners and described for the physicians. This is important in integrating the best evidence, clinical expertise, and patient values as well as the situations that are linked to the management of the patient, management of the practice, and health policy decision-making processes (Small & O'Connor, 2007).
The assessment of the factors that are supporting or impeding the adoption of the evidence-based practice
Several factors are associated with the failure to the successful adoption of EBP. The implementation of EBP for example in healthcare facilities requires the dedication of time. Therefore, lack of adequate time for the training and implementation of the EBP makes it hard to adopt it within the facility. The adoption of evidence-based practice also requires adequate resources. This, therefore, implies that there must be adequate resources to facilitate the effective implementation and the adoption of the EBP. This, therefore, implies that smaller organizations with unstable capital income might not adopt the EBP. Another barrier is the inability to understand the statistical terms or the jargons used in the EBP. This leads to barriers in understanding thus making it hard to implement the EBP (Duncombe, 2018). Therefore, the factors that might support the implementation of the EBP are the availability of resources and adequate time.

SOCW 6311 Week 3 Discussion: Choosing and Using Single-System Design
Many people receive their first introduction to the scientific method in their early school years. The first experiments which students undertake typically involve plants, chemicals, or small animals in a tightly controlled experimental environment. These experiments enable students to establish a relatively clear cause-and-effect relationship between the outcome of the experiment and the manipulation of the variables.
As soon as a researcher introduces a human element, proving a cause and effect relationship becomes more difficult—as the researcher cannot enact total control of another person even in an experimental environment. Social workers serve clients in highly complex real-world environments. Clients often implement recommended interventions outside of social workers’ direct observation. Yet, evidence-based research calls for social workers to establish cause-and-effect relations between selected interventions and client outcomes as much possible. To meet this challenge, social workers must understand the study designs available to them and all of the variations of that design that can increase the rigor of the experiment and improve the likelihood of verifying a cause-and-effect relationship.
In this week’s case study, you decide whether the social worker in the case study has appropriately chosen a single-system (subject) design and implemented it in such a way that it can be considered an appropriate example of evidence-based research.
To prepare for this Discussion, read the case study Social Work Research: Single Subject and criteria for using single-system (subject) designs as evidence of effective practices in this week’s resources. Consider whether the study design described in the case study will serve the purpose of evaluating the program’s practice approach (case management with solution-focused and task-centered approaches). Consider whether these approaches are well suited to evaluation by the types of measurement used in the study. Consider to what objective measurement the numerical scales used to measure problem-change and task completion corresponds. Consider what new knowledge and evidence for the efficacy of the treatment approaches Chris has generated with her study.
Provide a 300-word Discussion Post:
- An evaluation of the proposed study design described in the case study below.
- Explain whether the outcome of Chris’ study with her client George would lead you to adopt the model of case management with solution-focused and task-centered approaches, and substantiate your choice.
- Provide recommendations for improvements should Chris and her colleagues wish to submit the study to the evidence-based practice registry. Include rationale for your recommendations.

Individuals in later adulthood address developmental tasks that are unique to their life-span phase, and many of these tasks "are psychological in nature" (Zastrow & Kirst-Ashman, 2016, p. 657). Many aspects of living as an older adult may differ significantly from what an individual experienced in an earlier phase of his or her life-span. For example, changes in older individuals' income, living arrangements, social connections, and physical strength may influence how they view themselves, interact with others, and think about their futures.
This week, as we explore the psychological aspects of later adulthood, we consider theories of successful aging and their application to social work practice. We also consider how you might apply models of grieving to support families in a hospice environment when an aging family member approaches death.
Theories of successful aging explain factors that support individuals as they grow old, contributing to their ability to function. Increasing your understanding of factors that support successful aging improves the ability to address the needs of elderly clients and their families.
To prepare for this Discussion, review this week's media. In addition, select a theory of successful aging to apply to Sara's case.
Post a Discussion in which you:
· Explain key life events that have influenced Sara's relationships. Be sure to substantiate what makes them key in your perspective.
· Explain how you, as Sara's social worker, might apply a theory of successful aging to her case. Be sure to provide support for your strategy.
Proper English with no run-on sentences is an absolute requirement!

Respond to the colleagues posts in one of the following ways:
· From a strength's perspective, critique your colleague's approach to addressing Francine's case. Provide support for your critique.
· Critique your colleague's strategy for applying knowledge of the aging process to work with older clients. Discuss how cultural, ethnic, and societal influences might affect the application of this strategy.
· At least one reference and citation is required in each post.
SR’s post states the following:Top of Form
As a group, LGBT older adults experience unique economic and health disparities. LGBT older adults may disproportionately be affected by poverty and physical and mental health conditions due to a lifetime of unique stressors associated with being a minority and may be more vulnerable to neglect and mistreatment in aging care facilities (American, 2019). In the case of Francine (Plummer, 2014) she is a 70-year-old Catholic woman, who personally identifies as a lesbian. She never felt comfortable actually “coming out” due to the environment she grew up in. Both in the era, she grew up in and the strict Catholic belief she was raised in is against homosexual nature she felt it wasn’t appropriate to discuss. As she got older and experienced the loss of her partner, she felt those who cared about her felt she should not mourn her loss so hard. It could have been due to her never admitting who her partner really was, or the common mindset of those around her. It could affect how she viewed her life and what she should do as an older adult in her sexual life.
Environmental factors influence the aging process. Being physically and mentally active tends to slow down the aging process. Inactivity speeds it up. A positive outlook (positive thinking) tends to slow down the aging process. Insecurity, the lack of someone to talk to, negative thinking, and being in a strange environment tend to accelerate the aging process (Zastrow, 2016). In Francine’s case, the loss of her loved one and retirement has affected her outlook. She feels sad and isolated, it has taken its toll and that can progress the effects of ages. Once she gained a support system she was able to increase her activity and her mental stability changed.
As a worker, I would use the understanding that environmental factors and personal views can affect a client and manifest as an aging process. I would help Francine by using cognitive reasoning to help her accept her life and make changes that make her happy. While morning her loved one is appropriate, helping herself is as well.
The notion that there is a general intellectual decline in old age is largely incorrect. Most intellectual abilities hold up well with age. While older people show a decline in performance on IQ tests, their actual intellectual competence may not be declining (Zastrow, 2016). A strategy I might use in applying my knowledge of the aging process in social work practice.

Discussion 1: Moral Development Theory and Bullying
Bullying is not a new phenomenon, but social media and communication technologies have introduced a breadth and depth to which public shaming, targeted taunting, and bullying have manifested. For this Discussion, consider how bullying has changed and how it has remained the same in light of modern technology.
Post
an explanation of one moral development theory and its connection to the act of bullying. Be sure to frame your explanation within the context of cyber and other bullying that persists in social media and communication technologies used by adolescents. Also explain how bullying has changed and how it has remained the same in light of modern technology. Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.
Discussion 2: Bullying: Cycle of Events
Bearing witness to trauma has its own set of consequences. Watching repeated episodes of bullying can evoke strong emotional and behavioral responses from an adolescent. During the impressionable stage of social development in adolescents, these experiences can contribute to a change in perception about the ways people should and do treat each other. Furthermore, ongoing exposure to this behavior can jeopardize an adolescent’s healthy social development. For this Discussion, consider how the act of bullying experienced by one adolescent may change the experience of another who witnesses it.
Post
a scenario that illustrates how bullying experienced by one adolescent may change the experience of another who witnesses it. Then address the availability of any social work intervention, skill, or practice that might change this cycle of events. Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.

Week 10
Project: Bio-Psycho-Social Assessment
Assessing a client’s biological, psychological, and social history is a holistic approach that is an essential aspect of social work practice. Since one area often affects the other two, it is important to get as accurate an assessment as possible when working with a client. Social workers use the bio-psycho-social tool to communicate specific information, and possible conclusions, about a client to other professionals. It is, at once, a summary of current issues and problems; a listing of past factors that may be relevant to the current situation; and a description of potential issues that may have an effect on the client in the future. In addition to describing the client’s challenges and problems, the assessment identifies strengths and assets that are available to provide support. For this Project you create a bio-psycho-social assessment.
By Day 7
Submit 9
-page paper that focuses on an adolescent from one of the case studies presented in this course. For this Project, complete a bio-psycho-social assessment and provide an analysis of the assessment. This Project is divided into two parts:

Social service agencies approach the pursuit of social justice issue.docx
- 1. Social service agencies approach the pursuit of social justice issues in different ways. You are currently placed in a social service agency which addresses some aspect of social or economic justice for an oppressed or marginalized population. Using Schneider & Ingram (1993) as a foundation, you will create a paper that addresses the following: PART 1 Provide a brief description of the organization and the population(s) the organization serves. Present the mission of the organization and identify what social justice issues the organization strives to address. Provide both a clear definition of the problem and a description of the extent of the problem. Support the discussion of the problem with citations from the social work literature. Describe the major strategies or interventions the organization utilizes to address social justice issues (1.5-2 pages) PART 2 Identify and analyze the prevailing social and cultural narratives relevant to the chosen social justice issue. Consider the historical basis of the narratives as well as current public policies that impact people experiencing the injustice. Drawing upon Schneider & Ingram (1993) , consider how populations impacted by the issue have been
- 2. socially constructed. Support the discussion with citations from the social work literature. Develop an alternative narrative about the issue that is more compassionate and conducive to the promotion of social justice. Briefly describe the new narrative and explain why it represents a preferable alternative to the prevailing narrative. (2-3 pages) PART 3 Develop a hypothetical plan for addressing the social injustice in a local context in conjunction with your agency. The plan could entail public policy reform, a community organizing campaign, an activist movement, or something else of your creation. Provide an overview of the plan, highlighting any specific strategies that will be employed. Provide evidence of the potential effectiveness of these strategies, using the social work literature to support the discussion. Provide a rationale for the choice of plan, articulating why this plan is appropriate for addressing the specified social justice issue. Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the plan, making note of what resources would be necessary to ensure success. (1.5-2 pages)
