ASSIGNMETN 3 SOCIOLOGYÂ
This is part 1 of your 4 part cumulative assignment. Interview a Social Worker: Select a field of social work service such as poverty, homelessness, health care, mental health, children and families, adolescents, minorities, immigrants and other oppressed populations, substance abuse and addiction, and the elderly for an in-depth study. You may find that the population you are interested in studying does not quite fit into one of these categories, or perhaps fits more than one. This is not a problem. Simply identify the population or field of service as specifically as you can. Once you have identified the population of concern, please identify a BSW or MSW practitioner in the community who works with this population and arrange to interview her/him. The practitioner must be a social worker. Please submit the name of the social worker you are interviewing, the population they serve, the organization they work for, and their status as a social worker (BSW, ASW, MSW, LSCW, PHD). Also submit 10 questions that you will ask in your interview. Â Â
