As a social worker, you will often work with clients that are perceived as "others." This "otherness" often leads to marginalization and barriers or limitations promoted by society and social institutions. Marginalization is arguably the most dangerous form of oppression (Adams, 2013) because it eventually leads to social expulsion and material deprivation. Social work is a unique profession because it empowers those who are affected by the socially constructed barriers and biases that have perpetuated long-standing inequalities. As you begin your work with clients both as an intern and social worker, it is imperative to consider not only the individual (micro) concerns the client brings to the session but the environmental or macro factors that may have either created or perpetuated the concern. You can empower your clients by helping them identify and define the oppression they experienced throughout their lifetime. Social work's commitment to social justice includes a hyperawareness of the social constructions that are used to limit some groups' autonomy and viability while supporting others.

Individual Paper!
Over the last seven weeks, we have engaged a series of questions having to do with excavating the building blocks of modern/colonial policing in relationship to the origins of racism, coloniality of power, settler colonialism and white supremacy. These are asked by activists, organizers thinkers, and other situated knowledge positions who are thinking through the following: Are prisons obsolete? Are such institutions like the police obsolete? How do we understand the role of racial/gendered violence and the law? What are the methodologies used to further the line between the human and the sub-human/non-human? What is the relationship between racial violence, concepts of whiteness as property, and citizenship in the formation of a Mexican American subject? And how does studying historical moments by which the criminalization of Mexican/Mexican Americans/Chicanxs appear to serve to undermine the very logic(s) that give them meaning?

For your assignment, write a “thought piece” that engages these conversations and questions. Obviously in such a short paper, I expect you to be as precise and sharp in your analysis. That is to say, go straight into one of the topics, themes, questions that emerged as significant to you. Be in conversation with the authors, the topics, your classmates and communities, and myself. What question(s) emerge from your engagement with these authors and topics that you want to answer or speak to? Use proper citation of the materials and lectures. You do not need to do further research or bring in other resources.

Source-based Academic Argument Essay (5-7 pages) based on music from one or more time periods in jazz history

In Paper 2 you will develop your own academic argument to analyze (objectively) and interpret (subjectively) at least two exhibits, with the help of at least two argument sources. Remember to cite the sources – and include links, if relevant – for all four or more sources. For this essay, the exhibit sources may be examples of music from any time period or genre covered in these chapters. The arguments or positions should be from published sources, e.g. relevant passages from a book, scholarly articles, or journalists’ critiques. Assess each source to ensure that it is reputable, reliable, and authoritative. Give preference to recognized critics, historians, journalists, and musicians. Avoid anonymous, poorly written, and overly general sources. To execute this assignment successfully, you must (1) advance an argument, position, or claim of your own; (2) summarize an argument or position that contrasts or conflicts with yours; and (3) support your position or claim through analysis and interpretation of the particular exhibits. Length of Final Version: 5-7 pages.

While many corporations fund nonprofit organizations through corporate foundations, many do not have a separate foundation. Understanding how to cultivate, educate, and solicit leadership from these corporations is very important and a bit different from obtaining funding from a corporate foundation.

Imagine you have been hired as a fundraising consultant to a local nonprofit organization dedicated to improving community health. This local nonprofit organization is not familiar with corporate fundraising. You have been tasked to make a presentation to the board of directors explaining the process they might establish to raise this category of funds.

 

discuss an evaluation of strategies your nonprofit organization might use to solicit corporate funds from foundations, corporations, and government entities. Also identify at least two challenges associated with corporate fundraising.

Use proper APA formatting and include the following: level 1 headings to define each part of the discussion, at least two scholarly sources to support your work, in-text citations as appropriate, and a reference list. Must be at least 700 words

Sexual Harassment In The Workplace

Assignment: Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

 

Julie has been a nurse at Memorial Hospital for three years. During that time, she has developed productive relationships with her colleagues and has earned a reputation for providing exceptional care to patients. One day she approaches you, her manager, and asks to speak in private. Once you are alone, Julie explains that over the past couple of months she has heard a physician and two nurses repeatedly make disparaging remarks about people who are homosexual. She appears visibly upset as she tells you this. Julie says that the situation has become so uncomfortable that she no longer feels safe in this environment.Does this scenario reflect a possible case of sexual harassment? How would you respond to Julie, and what steps might you take next?

 

Sexual harassment is an important topic in today’s organizations–one that is often addressed through HR presentations and trainings. However, even for experienced nurse managers and HR professionals, it can be challenging to recognize some of the behaviors and actions that may indicate sexual harassment. Nurses in leadership and management positions have a critical responsibility to become attuned to the various interactions that can be problematic, including inappropriate remarks and jokes, improper fraternization, quid pro quo situations, and potentially offensive images.

 

To prepare

Review the articles, “Sexual Harassment – A Touchy Subject for Nurses,” “Why Are Nurses Leaving? Findings from an Initial Qualitative Study on Nursing,” and “Bullying, Harassment, and Horizontal Violence in the Nursing Workforce.” Consider sexual harassment situations most commonly experienced by nurses.Think about a work environment with which you are familiar. Have you witnessed or experienced any behaviors that–perhaps with the benefit of hindsight and increasing awareness–may be construed as sexual harassment, even if you did not think of them that way at the time? Do you recall any instances in which you might have intentionally or unintentionally contributed to or participated in an environment that tolerated harassment against one or more individuals? If so, what were your thoughts and feelings at the time? How, perhaps, has your perspective since shifted?Select one of the following options:               

 

Option 1: Conduct research via the Walden Library, or other scholarly sites, to select an article that presents an authentic example of workplace sexual harassment.

 

Option 2: Identify an authentic example of suspected or proven sexual harassment from your professional experience.Conduct research related to your selected example to assess the ramifications that may result from instances of sexual harassment.

Consider how you could partner with HR to mitigate situations of sexual harassment in your workplace. In addition, think about specific steps you could take to diminish inappropriate behaviors in the workplace.

 

Submit a 3- to 5-page paper in which you do the following:

Describe an authentic example of suspected or proven sexual harassment.              

 

 Explain how this specific instance of sexual harassment impacted the workplace.Identify at least two legal ramifications that could have (or did) result from this situation and how they could (or did) negatively impact the workplace.

 

Briefly explain other ramifications (e.g., organizational culture, staff relationships, individual and team performances, patient safety, quality of care) that could have (or did) result because of this specific instance.Describe the actions that were taken to resolve the situation, if applicable.Formulate an action plan that can be used to mitigate and/or ameliorate behaviors that constitute sexual harassment.               

 

Based on your example, explain how you would educate staff on the identification and prevention of inappropriate behaviors. Describe at least two specific steps you would take to diminish similar sexual harassment situations.Describe at least two ways you could partner with HR to effectively accomplish your action plan.
