Project: Part 3: Analysis of a Policy

I’m studying for my Social Science class and need an explanation.

Directions:

In Part 3 of your ongoing Social Change Project assignment, you analyze the selected social policy.

Complete Part 3 of your Social Change Project. Abuse and Neglect is my focused social policy.

Address the following items within a paper:

• Evaluate the policy’s strengths and weaknesses. What is working? What is not working?
• How will changing this policy affect clinical social workers or the clients of clinical social workers?
• Provide an update on the advocacy activities your proposed in the Week 6 Assignment.

Make sure that your assertions are supported by appropriate research and reputable resources.
