What is the definition of social work in the United States? Answer -
emphasizes the importance of empowering marginalized peoples and
structural societal change.
what is Disproportionality? Answer - the underrepresentation or
overrepresentation of a racial or ethnic group compared to its percentage in
the total population. ex)
what is clinical social work? Answer - is a type of direct practice. It includes the
resolution and prevention of psychosocial problems experienced by individuals,
families, and groups using accepted therapeutic practices and modalities
(Asakura et al., 2020). This definition includes mental health treatment, but it
extends more broadly to other emotional, behavioral, and relational difficulties
as well. Specht and Courtney (1994) articulated concerns regarding the
movement of social work toward psychotherapy and billable services and the
abandonment of its primary mission of ensuring social justice and equal access
to resources for clients. With this recognition, we encourage an intent on the
part of clinical social workers to integrate social justice concepts into the
practice of psychotherapy.
What is social justice? Answer - all people should have equal rights to
resources a society offers, regardless of their circumstances or group identity.
