Community Practice Project Essay
Community Practice Project Essay
Before work can be done in any Community Practice Project, a Social
Service Worker must first develop a thorough understanding of the
community they have selected for this assignment. For this project, each
group member is responsible for engaging in exploratory research and
writing a comprehensive report that will assist the group in understanding
the community selected as whole, specific areas of focus, and arrive at
clear objectives. Included in your report is research/evidence for the need
to support the community with your group project, how you conducted your
research and gathered evidence, the findings of your research and how
you believe this information will help the project. Please ensure that this
report is evidence-informed and does not include your opinion or feelings
on the subject.
Here are five topics that groups will be assigned to research: Pick one out of 5 of your
interests;
Question; Violence against women and girls: the shadow pandemic during COVID-19
Time will be provided in class for groups to generate questions for each topic that will help them
to understand their community of choice better. It is expected that the group will divide the work
equally, share responsibility for research amongst individual members, and use the group
contract to document roles, action items, timelines, and scheduled meeting times for the group.
In addition to the areas outlined above, each group member will include the following in
their individual report:
You will include at least 5 peer-reviewed research articles and grey literature (government
reports, statistical information, community agency surveys and reports, etc.)
You will list the questions you are taking responsibility to explore further and provide a rationale
for selecting the questions.
You will reflect on your initial learning about the community, and its relevance to you as an SSW
and link a theoretical perspective to your analysis of your research findings.
Your conclusion will include what you now believe the primary issues that are readily apparent
and what key issue(s) you feel your group might focus on.
My Identity Essay
My Identity Essay
After viewing Dr. Fleming’s video and completing this week’s readings, create a visual illustration of the elements of your own identity. Your visual should include both your personal identities and your group/social identities and should be a comprehensive list of the various elements of your identity. How you choose the separate your core identities from those that are farther from the center is up to you. The illustration can be as plain or as colorful and creative as you like. If you create your illustration by hand, be sure to scan/photograph it and include it with your paper. Save your illustration as a jpeg and include it with your reflection paper. This section does not count toward your total word count for this assignment.
In addition to creating your identity illustration, address the following prompts:
Introduction
What are the 4-5 most important (core) elements of your identity?
Where and how were each of these aspects of your identity formed?
Think of the last time that one or more of these identities were threatened. (The focus here should be on a threat that came through the words or actions of another person or other people, not internal battles you might have experienced within yourself.)
How did you respond?
Northrup (1989) believes that conflicts that threaten or are perceived as threatening to our core concepts of self very often result in intractable conflicts. How does your example support or refute this belief?
In your opinion, why does identity have such a major impact on a person’s response to conflict? Support your view with information from the course, the textbooks, or other academic material.
In your opinion, how does your identity impact your personal conflict style that you discovered in Module 1?
Think about your personal reaction to conflict in light of what Shapiro called the repetition compulsion. Respond to the following questions adapted from p.65:
What recurrently dysfunctional pattern(s) do you exhibit in conflict? (We all have them!)
At the moment when this pattern occurs, what is threatening your identity? Be specific and introspective in your explanation.
Which of the common issues listed on p. 66 lure you into the repetition compulsion? Is it something else? Why do you think these things pull you in?
Conflict is almost never one-sided, and the ability and willingness to own your own contribution to a conflict is indicative of an increasing level of emotional
intelligence (which we will discuss in the next module). With that in mind, think back to a recent conflict in which you were personally involved. How did your
own words and actions contribute to the escalation of this conflict? Provide specific evidence of words that you said and/or actions that you took that made the conflict more difficult for everyone involved.
Consider a long-standing conflict with which you are personally familiar. It should be one in which you are personally involved if possible, or at least one with which you are very familiar with the parties and the details. Synthesizing the material from Northrup and Shapiro’s section on the sacred and any other academic material you find appropriate, analyze the conflict in terms of its intractability and the sacred.
What do each of the parties hold sacred that is threatened by this conflict?
Is it possible for the parties to disentangle the sacred from the secular (Shapiro, pp. 105-107)? Explain.
Is this conflict intractable? Explain.
