Provide prevalence, incidence, and relevance to the military population as background information. Describe evidence-based treatments (EBTs) identified for the problem or psychosocial or rehabilitation treatments.
How could an agency do better, or what could be added to help a military client or his or her family? Throughout this course, you have examined many aspects of social work practice within a military setting. In addition, you have had the opportunity to explore multiple social service issues and agencies intended to address those issues.
In the Final Project, you describe a social work issue affecting military clients and identify organizational resources necessary to form a successful response.
The Assignment:
Select a particular mental health or social service issue studied in this course. Imagine you have been engaged to increase the success of a local community organization’s response to the needs of military clients and families related to your selected mental health or social service issue.
Write an 8- to 10-page paper in which you do the following:
- Define the problem. Provide prevalence, incidence, and relevance to the military population as background information.
- Describe evidence-based treatments (EBTs) identified for the problem or psychosocial or rehabilitation treatments. Provide information about the relevance of these approaches with a military population.
- Identify agency resources that would be needed to address the problem and treat the military members and their families.
- Identify training and education that would be needed for treatment providers. Provide a rationale for additional training and education.
