Course Description:
The official course description is: "Exploration of specific target populations or areas of need and related public policies. Information and skills for policy practice and advocacy." It is one oof two required policy courses for MSW students and covers beginning advocacy/social action skills (e.g. how to write an op ed, lobby a legislator) and a deep dive on U.S. social policy for a specific population (in my case children and families).
