MyHeritage Syllabus Presentations Emails

I’m looking forward to seeing you this week and seeing you all in person this week.

Unit Introduction and What You Will Learn

For the first four weeks of class, we will focus on groups in family work. This week you will read Hepworth et al. (2022) Chapter 10 Assessing Family Functioning in Diverse Family and Cultural Contexts. The assessment is the foundation for any successful service. Some of the dimensions we must look at include: family structure, including homeostasis, boundaries, power and decision-making, roles, rules, life cycle, and sociopolitical environment

Strengths perspective and families
Engagement and assessment with families

Because we met online last week and didn’t pick groups, we will also do that during this class session.
