SOWK 360 Social Work Practice with Families

This course is the second offered in the practice series and will begin to develop specific helping skills for generalist Social Work practice. Topics will include the problem-solving model, and will develop interviewing, assessment, treatment planning and evaluation skills. Family developmental issues will be addressed. A primary focus of this course will be the development of a knowledge base and the skills necessary to provide Social Work intervention with families at risk. A one-day per week practicum experience (SOWK 361) runs concurrent with course work. This course meets the writing-intensive requirement for the Social Work major.
