    Description
    This course engages foundational concerns of the helping professions such as educators, social workers and other human services from individual , communal, and societal perspectives. Questions explored in this course include, how as a society do we provide help in ways that are empowering and authentic for those being helped and what are the tensions that inevitably arise when we try to formalize the helping relationship? In addition to exploring the skills that lead to caring, competent, and effective practice, students will develop a personal philosophy of helping that is critical and reflective.
