SOCW 670 - Evidence-Based Practice with Children, Youth and Families
3 Credits
This course will emphasize the application of Evidence-Based Practice for in-home family treatment models. Students will develop familiarity with prominent models (evidence-based and promising practice) in use in organizations in Connecticut and around the country. The course provides specific strategies and underlying theory for each model. It also explores commonalities in the models including the application of attachment, family systems and developmental theories to social work practice with children, adolescents and families. Local providers and clients participating in these models will be featured presenters in the course. The course examines the importance of family dynamics, class and cultural factors. Particular attention is paid to adolescents vulnerable due to involvement in risk behaviors. Students who complete this course are awarded a certificate stating that they are prepared to assume positions in an agency that has implemented one of the in-home family treatment models.
