Discussion: Community Social Work in Savannah GA
Have you ever wondered why some areas appear to be safe,
clean, and filled with many varied businesses, while others
appear run down and lined with only check-cashing centers,
fast-food restaurants, and liquor stores? As a macro social
worker, you often will see that communities thrive and falter
due to the resources available. The ways in which society
provides and allocates resources disproportionately benefits
certain groups while harming others through lack of resources
or displacement.
All communities have strengths despite their challenges. Use of
the strengths-based perspective helps you to identify the
potential strengths of a community and how to advocate for its
members to obtain the resources and services they need to be
successful.
To prepare: Identify characteristics that represent your
community (Savannah Ga) Then, take a picture that represents
these characteristics in your community. Note that your photo
does not need to be literal—it can be symbolic.
Post:
A picture you took that represents the characteristics you
identified in the community. (Don't worry about picture)
A description of the community. (Savannah GA)
Explain the strengths and challenges associated with that
community based on its characteristics. (APA format, provide
references)
Explain how the community could use their strengths to address
their challenges. (APA format, provide references)
Respond
to at least two colleagues:
Identify a role a social worker might take when working with
the community identified by your colleague. Provide a specific
example of what that role might look like. (Please provide 2
different statements)(APA format, provide references)
Describe two social work skills your colleague could use when
practicing with this community. (please provide 2 different
statements)(APA format, provide references)
