Social Work Practice: Assess

Catalog description

Students will learn that assessment is an ongoing component of the dynamic and interactive process of social work practice. Students will understand theories of human behavior and person-in-environment, as well as interprofessional conceptual frameworks, and they will critically evaluate and apply this knowledge in culturally responsive assessment with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. Students will demonstrate self-reflection and develop an understanding of how bias, power, privilege, and their personal values and experiences may affect their assessment and decision making.
