This foundation course introduces students to theoretical social work practice models with individuals, families, and groups in contemporary practice settings. The course emphasizes using theory to conceptualize human behavior and identify appropriate and effective strategies for intervention, all within a trauma-informed framework. Students will become familiar with theoretical concepts and associated interventions utilized in micro and mezzo levels of social work practice. Interventions will incorporate culturally responsive methods to negotiate, mediate, and advocate with and on behalf of clients and constituencies. Students will learn to make effective practice decisions regarding the selection and implementation of various trauma-informed interventions for a range of client problems and populations with the integration of anti-racist, equitable, diverse, and inclusive perspectives.
