Advanced Integrated Clinical and Community Practice II

Catalog description

This advanced course serves as an integration of content from previous methods courses, extending the foundation established in theory, practice, and field courses. With a focus on advanced relationship-centered clinical-community methods, the course emphasizes their application to intricate cases. Beyond teaching advanced methods in specific practice areas, such as case management, intervention and termination, treatment matching, policy analysis, and direct action organizing, the course prioritizes the integration of practice skills and the development of professional identity. Students engage with complex cases that challenge conventional boundaries of "micro," "mezzo," and "macro" practice, operating within local, national, and global contexts. The overarching goal is to cultivate a nuanced understanding of practice integration across various levels, fostering a holistic and adaptable approach within diverse milieus.
