Project: Part 3: Analysis of a Policy

As an astute social worker and professional policy advocate, once you have selected and identified a social problem, you begin the process of creating and implementing a policy that addresses that social problem. One of the first things you do in the implementation process is an analysis of the social policy you identified.

In Part 3 of your ongoing Social Change Project assignment, you analyze the selected social policy.

By Day 7

Complete Part 3 of your Social Change Project.

Address the following items within a 2-3 page paper:

  • Evaluate the policy’s strengths and weaknesses. What is working? What is not working?
  • How will changing this policy affect clinical social workers or the clients of clinical social workers?
  • Provide an update on the advocacy activities your proposed in the Week 6 Assignment.

Make sure that your assertions are supported by appropriate research and reputable resources.
