2A. Develop and implement strategies that strive to eradicate discrimination in any form<\/em><\/p>\n During the second half of my internship with the Children’s Advocacy Center, I had the opportunity to teach elementary school children about personal safety, the difference between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ touch, and what to do if they felt unsafe. We used the curriculum,\u00a0Lauren’s Kids,\u00a0<\/em>developed by Lauren Book who is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. In order to ensure children of diverse learning backgrounds could understand the lesson, I worked with my field instructor and task supervisor to rewrite the script for ages 5-10. Here is an example of the 4th & 5th grade script.<\/a><\/p>\n In my advanced administration course I worked with my cohort to develop a plan which addressed the needs of an underserved population in Chattanooga.

As students returned home and internship learning opportunities had to be altered to fit a new format, I had the rare opportunity to be introspective. My field instructor tasked me with taking an Enneagram Test and Implicit Bias Test<\/a>. In both instances I wrote about the results, implications for future social work practice, and how I planned to use this information to impact service delivery.<\/p>\n Below are my scores from the Enneagram Test.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At all levels of social work, diversity and variety in practice are qualities which are encouraged.
