Social workers frequently practice with groups and recommend group types to clients as part of their treatment plans. They must also know how to defend their recommendations with research. To help develop this skill, complete the following assignment:
First, read the Marta Ramirez Case Study
Next, imagine the client in your selected case study lives in your area and you are the social worker assigned to this case. Conduct research in your community for a group type to recommend to your client as a treatment option, taking into consideration possible cultural/subcultural barriers.
In an essay (500-750 words), recommend an appropriate group type (from the group types listed above) and justify the group you selected for the client by addressing the following in your recommendation:
Explain why you chose the group type you selected for the client. Why are the components of the group you selected best for the client?
Explain why the selected group type is a best practice for the selected case study as opposed to the other two group types.
Defend your group selection by citing two to four sources that show the group type you selected is a best practice treatment option for the social issues presented in the case study.
