SOWK 661 Appalachian Culture, Structures, and Environment

(3)
This advanced course integrates social work issues and methods from across the curriculum within a rural setting and Appalachian context.  The course builds upon the conceptual and historical foundations of rural practice and the unique Appalachian culture and resultant family, community, and delivery structures.  Further, the course explores mechanisms to build individual and community capacity, in part, by recognizing and exploring avenues of strength, inherent in and indigenous to, the environmental context of Appalachia.
