Course Description:

The goal of the course is to help students understand and analyze how social problems affecting individuals, families, and communities connect to political, economic, historical, and social forces. Some of these macro social problems include poverty, social exclusion, inequality, and violence. In sociology, students examine these as structural problems embedded in the fabric of society. We will examine how society is organized and structured, focusing on topics directly related to social service work (how do social systems shaped by colonial histories lead to forms of violence against Indigenous Peoples? Negative impacts of patriarchal structures, how racism, sexism, and classism are institutionalized, and more). Applying various sociological theories and perspectives, students will compare and contrast public and governmental responses to these social problems and assess the obstacles and successes in addressing them.

In this 75-hour course, students will develop an understanding of communication theory and the communication skills that are essential to the helping relationships they will be forming in their training as future Social Service workers working with children and young adults. The elements of interpersonal communication, the impact of one’s social location on communication, and interviewing techniques such as nonviolent communication, rapport-building, conflict resolution skills, attending skills, paraphrasing, and empathizing will be addressed.
