Learning Goal: I’m working on a humanities question and need a reference to help me learn.
The discussion
After completing the reading about various populations and groups, consider how you might incorporate this information in your own work with substance abusing clients. Respond to any or all of the prompts:
As you consider serving clients and their families, what might be the most challenging aspect for you, personally?
How does working with a family complicate the issue of confidentiality? How might you respond to these challenges?
What are the three most important considerations for the assessment process when working with the population you chose to read about in the textbook (ch. 17-24)?
What strengths can you identify within families or other special populations from your readings that might help the recovery process for a client?
Finally, please reflect upon what you have learned in the course and the areas you have identified for your own further learning and professional development. What was the most helpful information you gained from the course? The most challenging? The most surprising? Did what you learn change any of your viewpoints or intended strategies working with clients? etc. Grading of this discussion board will be the same as in previous discussion boards: thoughtful, specific responses incorporating information from the text and responses to peer postings will receive full credit. Feel free to respond to any/all of these prompts!
