    Community Driven Social Work Paper details: Throughout the course we have explored two examples of social work in practice. Both the Black Panther Party for Self Defense and American medical doctors and social workers in the spirit catches you and you fall down employed different tactics and practices to address the needs of a given community. In a 4 page,12- point font, double-spaced paper with ‘I-inch margins, compare and contrasts the various ways that The Black Panther Party AND the American medical doctors and social workers in the spirit catches you and you fall down addressed the problems that people that they were trying to help faced. Make sure that you talk about the complexity of the issues at hand. but also how each group used communication. activism. outreach, and theory to address community needs. Be sure that you take a stance on whether you think the respective groups did social work in “good" or “bad" ways AND talk about what ways that each group could/could not have done things differently. Lastly, tell me what kind of social work you want to see in the world: should it be community driven. how should social workers address difficult situations/cultural divides etc.
