Child and Family Welfare Scenario, Human services/ethics and theories help

In this Assignment, you will use your knowledge of ethics and best practices to identify the main issue presented by the client and develop a 4-page paper. In the paper, you will create an assessment and treatment plan for your client that includes his/her main problems (including any ethical issues), a prioritization of needs, an intervention plan and potential obstacles, and a plan to evaluate progress and next steps.

Choose the path of your career interest. (Child and Family Welfare Scenario)

Use the strength-based model in your planning. Remember the importance of a social support system in helping the client become more self-reliant. As your client becomes more confident, he/she will feel more confident in accepting more responsibility for filling his or her own needs. (Many clients initially lack these skills or confidence.)

Your Assignment should reflect professional writing standards using proper tone and language. The writing and writing style should be correct, accurate, and reflect knowledge of human service theories. The paper should be a minimum of four pages, double spaced, and in APA format.

1. Create a scenario using one of the three prompts above (one page).

2. Identify the client information, including demographics (age, ethnicity, marital status if applicable), reason for referrals and the client’s main problem and needs. Include a discussion of any ethical problems and legal values, standards, and practices that might be present in these situations (one page).

3. Provide an explanation of proposed interventions/best practice solutions (intervention plan) based upon a prioritization of needs using strength-based theory and description of possible obstacles that could prevent access to services (one page).

4. Plan for evaluation of interventions (half page).

5. Plan for next session (homework) (half page

Path 1: Child and Family Welfare Scenario

For this assignment, create a child client who has lived in foster care for most of his/her life. The client was recently adopted and has struggled to adjust to the new family. Recently, an experienced foster family adopted him/her, and the client seems to be having adjustment problems. My client’s name is Joey. His parent lost custody of him because they were both drug addicts, in and out of prison. Joey was abused but one of his parents dealers at the age of 5. His horrible past has contributed to his adjustment problems. He also has difficulty trusting people. I am a Human services student. As you work on this assignment, please keep the following theme in mind:

Assessment of Client Needs

When you realize that someone in your family is ill, what do you do? Perhaps you ask the person to describe the symptoms, and you might use the internet to search for information that might help you to decide your next step. If you decide that the person’s illness is severe enough, you might call your family physician and make an appointment, even insisting on being seen immediately. You and the sick family member get in your car and drive to the office, see the doctor, and then take the prescription to the drugstore to be filled. Sound familiar?

Now, imagine this scene without access to the internet, a phone, a car, and money to pay for the doctor or medicine. This is a completely different scenario now.

Clients who seek assistance from human service professionals do so because they lack something, either financial resources or personal resources (e.g., knowledge). To provide the best service to your clients, it is important to assess and prioritize their needs with their help. As you learned in your classes, to really assist your clients, you also need to identify their strengths, abilities, and resources. Sometimes, the solution to their problems already exists in their lives. In this unit, we will synthesize the information that you learned in your courses to create assessment plans designed to create and assess appropriate interventions.

I have to rewrite the paper in the third person. I should have dropped the rubric in there, my bad!
