Homework: The Intricate Tapestry of a Families Culture & History Essay

Purpose

This homework is designed to develop family assessment skills by integrating visual and verbal information.

Directions

I. Family Culture and History: Describe the role of cultural values (such as individualism, collectivism, Confucianism, Protestant work ethic) and events (such as migration, assimilation, loss, remarriage) in shaping your family members' roles and challenges.

II. Genogram: Complete a genogram of your own family, including at least three generations and the nature of the relationships among all members, including subgroups and close, enmeshed, conflicted, and distant or cut off relationships.

III. Assessment: Create an assessment of the family's presenting problem that incorporates what you learned in the other parts of the homework. Answer the following questions, using the titles in bold for subheadings:

1. Problem: What is one behavioral problem you believe has been affected by the family system and by the larger social context? Describe the problem as a behavior chain, with antecedents, actions, and consequences. The problem may also be cyclical, in which the consequences become the antecedents. This problem could be your own, one that primarily affects another family member, or one that exists between or among family members. You may choose a problem that existed in the past and may be resolved or improved, but for the purposes of this homework, go back to the time when it remained a challenge.

2. Context: Describe the systemic interactions that have maintained the problem, and how they have done so. These interactions could include factors beyond the microsystem of the family, such as the interaction between family and school system, or the effect of macro issues like racial profiling.

3. Resources: Describe the family strengths and resources that can be mobilized to resolve or improve this problem behavior. Include both internal strengths, such as values and coping skills, and external resources, such as community programs or positive relationships among microsystems such as family and school.

4. First Step: Conclude your paper by sharing the first step you would recommend a family social worker take in helping the family with this problem, and why you would start there.
