SWK 227 - Diversity in a Global Society

(4)


This course examines the influence of family structure and function, cultural heritage, religious affiliation, social class, health, and economic resources on generalist social work practice. A central theme of this course involves special attention to particular elements of social engagement affecting members of diverse groups to enable an appreciation of human diversity, the promotion of social, economic, and environmental justice, and empowerment of people. The United States and the world are facing enormous challenges in living together as a global village. The course is designed to shape the social work profession through human understanding in a global society.  (Offered fall and spring.)
