Part 1

A report

Produce a report (2,000-3,000  words) on how contemporary social issues have influenced and changed the needs of your local community over a period of time, and the role of social and community workers and organisations in responding to these needs. The report should focus on a range of (at least two) social issues that impacted your community and it should:

 

  • Analyse the impact of historical antecedents on current social or community work policy including reviewing the historical milestones that have contributed to current understanding of these contemporary social issues
  • Describe how different inquiries and legislation have addressed current contemporary social issues
  • Evaluate the impact of these contemporary social issues on current social or community work practice, including discussing how they have impacted on areas of social and community work on a micro level
  • Discuss how macro level policy reforms have impacted on social and community work practice on a micro level and outline, on the other hand, how these contemporary social issues have influenced policy and reforms on a macro level.

Part 2

A reflection

 

This task is based on your experience in your work placement. If you do not have a work placement, choose any social/community work service that you are familiar with.

 

Present a reflection (2,000 – 3,000 words) on promoting/challenging a contemporary social issue in your own area of practice (related to a Practice Theme) and provide practical ways in which your organisation can apply strategies addressing this issue, which will make a meaningful and sustainable difference to the experience of service users. Your reflection should include a description of a service. All names and personal details should be anonymised. In your reflection:

  • Summarise the contemporary social issue relating to own area of practice using Practice Theme
  • Reflect on how tackling contemporary social issue in practice can improve social and community service provision and reduce social inequality as well as explain different strategies that can be applied in the proposed project towards addressing this issue.
  • Discuss how challenging/promoting of this contemporary issue via the project would impact on the development of service provision and service user experience  including defining the relationship between a contemporary social issue and own professional development
  • Assess the impact of the contemporary social issue on different aspects of social or community work service provision including relating this issue to its potential impact on social and community service provision and the experience of service users
