Assignment:
Social Workers need to be able to assess and intervene with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. This assignment will assist you in the assessment of a group with specific needs and symptoms, assess potential diagnoses, and practice intervention strategies and planning for a group setting.
Consider clients that would benefit from group therapy for PTSD. This group would meet once per week for 8 weeks. Utilize a GCU approved AI Tool to generate a sample outline of the group to meet the needs of these clients.
Utilizing the sample AI writing prompt provided below, make your own version of the outline for this group.
Sample Writing Prompt: You are a social worker tasked with creating an outline for a PTSD group therapy 8-week session. Outline how this group would be facilitated including topics that would be important to cover during the 8-week period. What are some of the diagnostic features of PTSD that would be important to note in this group setting? What are some ways to set appropriate boundaries during the group meetings? Provide possible resources for the group to use.
First Draft Principle: Be sure to tweak the AI produced outline and make it your own. Make sure your outline adheres to the objectives for this week's topic and includes the assignment criteria. Use the AI resources available in the Student Success Center.

- Summarize the Diagnostic Features of PTSD presented in the outline. How are diagnostic features for adjustment disorders different?
