week 6 8020 writing

Overview

Disasters occur on national and international stages as well as on local levels. It is

imperative that social work leaders are among those responsible for responding. Social

work practitioners bring a variety of skills based on our code of ethics to address both

natural and human-made crises and disasters. Consider the devastation caused by natural

disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, HurricaneMaria, Hurricane Sandy, and the 2010

earthquake in Haiti. Youmay also consider crises such as the global pandemic COVID-19

or school shootings. Local resources were insufficient for dealing with the overwhelming

needs of the area. Macro andmeta level responses were required. Consider how you as a

social work leader with skills and knowledge about crisis intervention and disaster relief

would have applied those resources to providemacro andmeta level relief services after

such large disasters and crises.

Instructions

Using your text and the current scholarly literature (6 scholarly articles or government

sites) on disaster response, create a PowerPoint presentation to the Red Cross task force

assigned to the disaster or crisis response for the entire affected area. Use a sufficient

number of slides to address the physical, social and cultural, financial, and political needs

of the various island nations and protectorates as a whole. After establishing the list of

macro andmeta level needs, recommend interventions and/or strategic planning for

recovery based onmacro andmeta level social work practices.

Additional Requirements

● The PowerPoint presentation should be professional and follow best practices

for presentations.

○ Please include detailed presenter notes for each slide.

● APA formatting
