SOCW 603 - Women: Policy/Practice Issues
Women and Human Services: Critical Issues in Policy and Practice explores the historical nature of the role of women and women's struggles in Canada with particular focus on the role of women in northern, remote and First Nation communities. The exploration also includes a review of feminist perspectives and the meaning and application of feminist practice for social work in the areas of policy, research, counselling and direct service. The course draws on interdisciplinary knowledge and will provide the opportunity to analyze and debate the social and political forces which have shaped the condition of women in social work in particular and in human services generally. While gender relations are the focus, they will be analyzed as they intersect with race, class, ability, sexual orientation, aging, and so on.
