SOWK6361 Social Work with Latinx Families

Course Description

This course will examine evidence-based practices with Latinx families from a regional and international perspective.  The social construction of Latinx families in the US will be examined to allow for more accurate assessments and interventions. Latinx families from around the world will be examined to provide students with an expanded understanding of the diversity of the “familia.” The impact of migration, acculturation, and assimilation of Latinx people will inform family functioning models and intervention approaches.
