My Family and Group Experiences

Getting Started

Self-awareness and a commitment to ongoing personal reflection are important components of ethical and effective social work practice. In particular, new social workers must regularly reflect on experiences of their own upbringing and family. There are many opportunities to empathize and relate to clients in a way that is positive and beneficial to their experience, but there is also the potential to be triggered in a way that is distracting or even detrimental to the client experience.

In this activity, you will have the opportunity to reflect on your family and group experiences as they relate to the concepts of the workshop. Throughout the course, you are encouraged to consider and reflect on any current family and group interactions you have as a method to support your growth as a future social worker.
