This class will focus on relationship building and partnership formation in the context of community practice. Community partnerships hold the potential for individuals and groups to jointly identify priorities and work towards social change. An empowerment orientation guides this course with a focus upon community capacity building. We will begin by developing a critical understanding of such key concepts as community, participation and empowerment. We will then examine 1) how social work has historically been engaged in working with communities, 2) different community organizing and development models, 3) core values and skills for working with communities, and 4) other strategies for advocating for social change. These strategies will include building coalitions, facilitating intergroup dialogue, navigating the political arena, developing resources, working with the media, and engaging in participatory research efforts. The content will be enlivened through the use of case examples as well as opportunities to learn about and participate in local community partnerships. The course is structured for both students interested in the IFG and OCP concentrations. As will be discussed, the ability to effectively engage in partnership building is a valuable skill for virtually all social work positions that involve a commitment to create change. Must be enrolled in one of the following: Master of Social Work, Non-Matriculated Social Work.

The HBSE sequence is constructed as ¿theory for practice¿ courses. Theories for practice form a conceptual framework to develop understanding of the impact of social context on health (broadly defined) and well-being ¿ and on social work. These theories attempt to explain how and why people live their lives as they do: how we construct ways to understand our lives; how we develop actions to sustain ourselves and develop as a species and as a community (both local and global). Theories for practice permit us to articulate a value-driven, human rights and social justice vision within which we construct and operationalize our mission and our practice. HBSE I begins with an examination of human rights with particular attention paid to health as a human right. Students also consider how their own beliefs and ideas about the core values of human dignity, social justice, individual and cultural diversity, and self-determination have been shaped, how they have contributed to the formation of their identities and they contribute to students¿ own developing knowledge and professional practice. The lens for reflection is grounded in the belief that health is a human right. Must be enrolled in one of the following: Master of Social Work, Non-Matriculated Social Work, or Conditional Social Work.

HBSE is designed to develop and refine our consciousness of the continuous, dynamic and historical relationship that persists between human beings in any social context. HSBE II explores different theories about how human beings develop, understand, and participate in social relationships that include societal structures and distributions of power and resources necessary for healthy human development; how we formulate and act on basic assumptions about ourselves and others; and how the identity and experience of individuals is affected by class, gender, race or ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, and other factors as these are reflected in different political-economic and cultural contexts. Students explore how these different contexts are embodied in people¿s physical, mental, and relational lives. Must be enrolled in: Master of Social Work.

Research I provides an orientation to the history of science and the range of methods for informing evidence-guided social work practice. Knowledge generation and its application to social work research will be examined critically from a paradigmatic level. Students will explore the continuous relationship between research, theory development, and practice principles and will develop an understanding of the context of research, ethics and values, use of research resources, problem formulation, measurement, sampling, and research design. Must be enrolled in: Master of Social Work.
