SW-621 ADV CLI SW PRAC W/INDIVIDUALS

This concentration course advances clinical practice knowledge and skills that afford students an opportunity for an in-depth study of the individual as the basic unit of intervention aimed at promoting well-being through the use of resiliency as a framework for practice. This framework guides assessment, intervention, and evaluation with the client system across a range of practice settings and services. A variety of theoretical perspectives is examined with attention to: strategies and skills to mitigate the effects of oppression and social and economic injustices; services to diverse clients with varied needs and resources; enhancement of strengths and resourcefulness; professional responses in social, and political contexts; and evaluation of the effectiveness of worker interventions. Pre-requisites are Practice I and II or advanced standing; Field Education III or IV is co-requisite.
