Students learn to engage with and on behalf of individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. Students reinforce the theories of human behavior and person-in-environment and critically evaluate and apply this knowledge to facilitate engagement with clients and constituencies. Students will learn to be self-reflective and understand bias, power, and privilege to advocate for human rights. Students will utilize an anti-racist and anti-oppressive framework to evaluate how their personal values and personal experiences may affect their ability to engage effectively with diverse clients and constituencies.
