Social welfare is a concept central to social work, its history, and its mission.
Policy is a term used broadly, in many disciplines, and at varying institutional and political levels. The two terms—social welfare and social welfare policy—though often used synonymously, are not interchangeable. In order to improve social welfare, social workers engage with social welfare policy in varied ways.
Terminology can be precise, or it can be ambiguous and weighed down by pre-conceived notions. The terminology, and the goals they express, that you explore in this Discussion are informed by history, context, and contemporary issues, providing you with a foundation for how to survey the policy landscape with more clarity in order to center your role within it.
ASSIGNMENT BELOW
Response to the following:
· Define social welfare and social welfare policy.
· Explain how social welfare policy governs social work practice and programs.
· Explain in 2–3 sentences how one historical circumstance or event surrounding an issue or problem inspired a drive for social change.
· The goal here is to concisely point to an important historical event for context, rather than conduct a deeper historical analysis.
· Describe at least one way in which your role as a social worker and social change agent could continue to improve social welfare and social welfare policy.
