Assignment: Final Project and Culture
Cultural backgrounds can greatly impact people who are in need of human services. In some cultures, for example, illness is seen as a sign of weakness, which sometimes leads to delayed medical or social assistance.
This is just one of the countless ways that culture impacts human services, and as a future professional, it is important that you gain insights into how culture might impact your particular area of interest.
For this Assignment, use the Walden Library databases to locate and select one peer-reviewed article that relates to culture in human services. Consider how culture might impact the program or area of practice you plan to focus on for the Final Project.
To complete this Assignment: Write a 2- to 3- page paper that addresses the following:
• Identify the particular program or area of practice that you selected for the Final Project
• Identify and describe the peer-reviewed article you selected from the Walden Library.
• Explain how culture and the article you selected are relevant to the program or area of practice that you identified.
Reminder: Proper formatting and APA citations are required. Refer to the Writing Template for Course Papers for additional guidance.
Discussion: Values and Culture
Values, culture, and underlying beliefs of human services providers may raise dilemmas when handling cases involving issues such as infidelity, domestic violence, and parenting matters. In this week's media program, "Barbara-The Human Services Professional: Chapter 3," a number of issues impact the family, which raises questions that might be influenced by your own personal values.
For this Discussion, review the media program and consider the dilemmas affecting the family. Reflect on who is involved and what values and cultural influences might impact the case.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post a brief description of the dilemmas portrayed in the media presentation, including the individuals involved in the case. Then, identify the values and cultural influences that are presented in the case. Explain how these values and cultural influences might be impacting the dilemmas portrayed. Finally, explain how you, as the human services professional, would support the clients in the case study.
