Feedback: Regardless of our practice setting or position, social workers tend to view person-in-environment, person-and-environment, or person-in-context as the basic unit of attention. This is a radical notion, especially in North America where individuals are commonly viewed iconically as autonomous, independent, and completely free-willed creatures who can readily choose to become whatever and whomever they wish to become, regardless of current or past circumstances.
