HS 415 - Human Services


This human services course explores the interrelationship between the community, its human service needs, and the response of the human service delivery system to meet these needs. A history of human services is covered, as are the political, social, cultural, and economic forces that give rise to specific community problems, attitudes, and behaviors. The range of human service target populations will be introduced as well as the role of the human services worker in those community environments. The culminating activity will be a basic community assessment.

This course is applicable to the liberal arts requirements of the curriculum.
1 semester 3 credits.
