As an astute social worker and professional policy advocate, you must  be adept at identifying social problems that exist in your community or  in an agency or organization with which you are acquainted. Once you  have selected a social problem, you begin the process of creating and  implementing a policy that addresses that social problem. Address the following items in a 3-4 page paper: (Each prompt should be answered in a separate paragraph.) Describe a current social problem. How might this problem be incongruent with social work values/ethics? How/when has this problem been identified historically, and what were the actions taken to address this concern? How have the groups affected by this concern changed over time? Describe the policy area related to this social problem. Is the policy identified by you dictated by local, state, or federal statute—or a combination thereof? What are the different aspects of the policy? How long has the current policy been in place? Who supports and who opposes the policy? What changes/amendments have been made to the policy? Explain  how this policy affects clients you might see in a clinical setting and  why, as a clinical social worker, it would be important to advocate for  change.

DF # 16: "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been" short story by Joyce Carol OatesPlease make sure you support your assertions with evidence from the text.1. Discuss the references to popular teenage music in the story. Look at the instances in the story where music is mentioned. How does it influence the theme of the story? Speculate as to why the author dedicated the story to Bob Dylan. Oates has claimed that she was influenced by Bob Dylan's song "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue." 2. Discuss the character of Connie. She is impatience to assert her independence, and Arnold Friend is more than willing to help her. How is she vain? How is she a typical middle-class teenager? Do you see any symbolism in her name? Is she to be pitied, scorned, applauded or what? Why is Arnold Friend so strangely attractive to her? 3. Discuss the very complicated character of Arnold Friend. Is he simply a bad guy, or is he evil personified? Can Arnold Friend be compared to infamous murderers in real life? Oates has admitted that she was inspired to write this story by a murder and rapist known as "The Red Piper of Tucson," whose case was profiled in the March 4, 1966 edition of Life magazine. How do the physical descriptions of him paint a picture of death-like qualities? Or on the lighter side, do you think he may be a caricature of Bob Dylan? What was Dylan's role in the pop-music culture? Do you believe that Arnold Friend is as omniscient as he claims? Do you see any biblical allusions in Arnold Friend's physical description? Do you see any symbolism in his name? (Hint: play around with the letters. What do you get when you remove the two R's from his name?)4. Can you form an argument that pop music is a type of religion for Connie? Offer specific evidence from the story to support this theory.5. Discuss the irony in the story. How is Connie's reaction different from what you would expect of a typical victim of abduction? Connie goes almost willingly, as some sort of bizarre heroic gesture. Do you believe that she goes with Arnold Friend to save her family? Do you believe that Arnold Friend has any real power over her family? Is this a story about reality or about deception? 6. Some of the topics of this story are youthful rebellion, sexual maturity, quest for independence, experience (which calls each of us), the vulnerability of youth and the treachery of evil. Can you take one of these topics (or another of your own topic ideas), and phrase it into a statement of theme? 7. Finally -- Now that you've examined the story and analyzed it, and you've read a bit about allegory, do you think this story could be read as an allegory? If so, for what?
