You will be introduced to ways of working with individuals, families (in the broadest sense of that word) and communities. You will learn common frameworks and approaches, and the strengths and limitations of the application of them. In this course, learning is an active, iterative process with multiple opportunities to practice these skills in class with your peers. By the end of this course, you will have foundational skills for your ‘professional toolbox’ in working with and for people. 

This course is the first dedicated practice skills course that you will undertake as part of the Bachelor of Social Science Mental Health & Wellbeing or Youth Work Majors, or the Mental health & Wellbeing Minor.
