Home >Human Resource Management homework help >Unit 6 Assignment: Addressing Client Needs

Due Date: 11:59 pm EST Sunday of Unit 6

Points: 100

Overview:

Assume that you are a helping professional and you are meeting your new client for the

first time. In the referral, the client identified a major problem in living that they are

experiencing. In preparation for this meeting, you must conduct some basic research

about the problem to understand the client’s current situation. Once you have some

information on the problem, you will be looking for services in your local area that you

can suggest to support the client in resolving their problem in living.

Instructions:

The following are the sections of your paper:

• Introduction:

o What is the problem you are discussing, including the problem’s

background information?

o Who is affected by the selected problem?

o What are the underlying causes of the problem?

o What are the potential impacts of this problem? (Is there a domino

effect? Does this problem prevent the client from meeting their basic

needs? Does this problem impact other aspects of their lives?)

o What types of services or supports are needed to resolve/address the

problem?

• Two local service suggestions to help clients:

o Share the information for a specific program or service in your area that

you can suggest to the client. Be sure to include the program name.

o What is the service offered? How does it work? (i.e., is it a home visiting

program, do they offer long-term in-office counseling, do they have an on-

sight shelter?)

• Identify the barriers a client may face in accessing the services identified.

• Conclusion:

o Restate your thesis and tie all of your findings together.
