Discuss three of five key principles that frame the “just practice of social work.”

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: All five principles structure “just practice.” They are integrated to demonstrate an understanding of what, how, and why some individuals or client systems “should” receive equitable services from a social worker. The context of a given client will frame how the social worker engages and intervenes with the client. And, the history of that client system (internally and externally) will contribute to the larger picture of what the client is currently experiencing. Both of these elements (context and history) add to the practitioner’s assessment.
