Social Work Generalist Practice I

Catalog description

This is the first of two required generalist year practice courses. It provides an introduction to strengths-based generalist practice using a collaborative approach. The course is designed to allow students the opportunity to demonstrate generalist level competencies. Grounded in a person and environment construct, an appreciation of oppressive systems, and respect for human diversity, the course provides students with generalist knowledge, skills and values necessary for generalist social work practice. This course is taken concurrently with SWG 596 as a way to provide students with the opportunity to integrate their developing competencies across knowledge, values and skills.
