goal planning approaches that are person-centered and culturally safe. Students will explore
divergent practice approaches with a particular emphasis on strengths-based perspectives.
Students will develop collaborative skills to engage clients to identify needs/risks and

Within the SSW scope of practice, students will gain intervention skills that adapt to a variety of
