Justify your choices in a general and brief way, explaining why the theory or theories makes sense for this particular case. Avoid repeating material about the case that you will get into in greater depth in the assessment section. Part 3: Presenting Problem Situation Data Source: Briefly describe how you gathered data for the assessment, including measures and assessment tools used, format, and an analysis of the strengths and limitations of the data. include a blank copy of any assessment forms or other data collection tools used at your agency in an appendix (excluded from the page limit).

To what extent is your perspective shared by others in your agency and other involved service providers? What is the familys perspective? What are the perspectives of significant others? Are there conflicts among perspectives and how have these been addressed? Part 4: Assessment Assessment involves organizing into a framework all of the information you have obtained. It is how you add up the strengths/capacities of the client system and various relevant systems to address the problem situations at hand. Please make sure to explicitly incorporate the strengths perspective into your assessment. Limitations and obstacles should be noted as well. For this section, it is assumed that you will not have enough information to assess all aspects of the client system. Be selective and include those aspects that are most important to the case, in your judgement. If something is important but you dont have information on it, say why you think it might affect your assessment. Be sure to address specifically strengths as well as problems, and be sure to include how broader issues such as diversity, oppression, culture, or power may have affected the client system. If the client system is an individual, assess the client on the main areas outlined in chapter 9 of the textbook: [1] Intrapersonal Systems (biological functioning, cognitive/perceptual functioning, affective functioning, behavioral functioning, and motivation); [2] Interpersonal Systems (social support systems, spirituality and affiliation with a faith community); and [3] Physical environment (safety of the main physical environment, place attachment, place identity, and territoriality).

Did you use a rapid assessment instrument or other evaluation tool? If so, identify the measure and why you chose to use it. Be sure to discuss how you use these tools and their implications. In this section, you should also identify and discuss strengths you observe in the client system. Make sure to also include an assessment of culture and its impact with this client system. Discuss any culturally relevant factors, including issues of oppression and discrimination that might influence their current situation. Also assess environmental factors that influence the systems functioning and development. Consider resources and risk factors at various systems levels.

Part 5: Using Evidence and the Professional Literature Identify two main client problem areas or client concerns that have emerged from your assessment above (e.g., teen pregnancy, child abuse or neglect, family conflict, substance abuse). Discuss your rationale for focusing on these issues with this client. Why are they important in your work with this client? For each problem area, read at least 3 recent professional peer-reviewed journal articles that are not on the syllabus (minimum 6 total references). The articles should be focused on assessment or interventions for the problems, not on describing the nature of the problems. You can use additional articles to describe background or human behavior articles on the problems. This minimum of six (6) references will assist you in developing a well-grounded evidence-based assessment and intervention plan for this client system. Do not use quotes, unless they are exceptional, but rather demonstrate your understanding of the literature and its relationship to your analysis and assessment. Be sure to cite the literature using APA format. Also use assigned readings on assessment that are relevant to your client and to the theoretical perspectives you are utilizing. Communicate your understanding of this client system and the two problems that you selected. Address intra-personal, interpersonal, and environmental issues related to each problem. What are the resources available both within the client system and externally to deal with the problems and issues that have been identified? What obstacles exist internally and externally? Part 6: Evaluation of the Therapeutic Relationship Briefly summarize the qualitative aspects of the client system’s relationship to you, both initially and at the current time. How did you approach the process of engagement with this client system? What issues impacted the engagement process? What has assisted or impaired the establishment of your current relationship? This may include client system characteristics, ethnic or racial issues, personal characteristics, communication/interviewing skills, helping strategies, barriers, and/or other issues. If your assignment is based on a vignette or other alternative, you should use this section to write about what aspects of the therapeutic relationship would be important if you were working with this client system. Part 7: Race, Ethnicity, Identity, and Culture What factors related to diversity in terms of race, identity, sexual orientation and other cultural variables are relevant to this system? How have societal and institutional processes of racism, discrimination and oppression impacted the client systems development and functioning over time? What human rights and social, economic, and environmental issues have affected the client system? Discuss the ways in which you have addressed cultural, ethnic, racial, social class, and other psychosocial and physical aspects of the situation. If you have not addressed these issues, discuss how and why you would do so in direct practice with the client system? Part 8: Ethical and Value Issues What ethical and value considerations have been central in working with this client system? Explain the differing sides of the value perspectives and ethical dilemmas. How did (or would) you use professional and ethical strategies to address these issues? Describe your rationale for the strategies you used and/or the choices you made. Part 9: Final Summary Include an assessment summary at the end of your paper (a brief but clear overview of the client system’s situation, including areas you will work on and your understanding of the contract with the client). This section should wrap up the paper. It provides also an opportunity for you to integrate your knowledge of the literature with your assessment. Include anything you would do differently now with the client system, given what you have learned in classes.

Case Studies in Development Ethics: Affirming Integral Social and Economic Development in Design and Impact Individual research proposals for the evaluative paper within your topic ought to be neither so broad as to be unresolvable within the parameters of the assignment (e.g. ethics of free markets in the globalized world), nor irrelevant in todays society (e.g. Whether the Comintern, or the Third International, was successful in promoting income equality in areas of its activities.).

You must accomplish the following tasks: Briefly present the relevant historical, social, and political circumstances out of which this development challenge arose. Explain why it is a topic of disagreement regarding policy responses to it and what the primary arguments of two or more positions are. Be sure to provide significant empirical research and facts, citing the sources for these data. Using sources from the course and your own research, evaluate the policy positions offered in Section A from the perspective of integral human development.

Explain which teachings are most relevant and how they apply to this case or issue. Cite from at least one documentary source of Catholic social doctrine (e.g. www.vatican.va, www.usccb.org) and at least two (2) philosophers (e.g. Averroes, Aristotle, Nussbaum, Sen, John Locke, Jacques Maritain; use journals like the Journal of Global Ethics: https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/rjge20/current). Present at least one alternative ethical framework for evaluating the policy proposals in Section A that either directly critique the integral approach in Section B and/or represent an alternative foundational position. Note the points of agreement and disagreement between these and the integral approach, explaining why their conclusions differ with respect to this issue. Cite at least two (2) critical authorities. Critically analyze all the positions presented in Sections B and C, assessing their strong and weak points. Present your personal position on the issue at hand, constructively building a well-reasoned and convincing argument for this commitment.
