SW502, Section 005

This course will examine theory and research knowledge about political, economic, and societal structures and processes related to communities, groups and organizations within contemporary American society. Consideration will be given to ways in which these social systems have significant social, political, economic, and psychological impact on the functioning of individuals, families and social groups. This course will provide a framework for understanding the influences of these significant social systems on individuals, families, and groups with whom social workers practice. Communities, organizations and other large social units will be examined in terms of risk and protective factors that promote or detract from optimal individual and group well-being.
