Essay Instructions

Please upload a .pdf of your essay and include your name, phone number and email address. Maximum word count for each question is 400 words. Only essays meeting these qualifications will be considered.

Essay Part 1
A distinguishing characteristic of the social work profession is the value placed on self-determination. Please share how you would handle (or have handled) a situation in which your employer, government entities, etc., have a policy or position that violates an individual right to self-determination. Also, please include detail regarding the approach you would take if your client presented a choice that was in opposition to your personal choice on the given issue. How would you or have you handled this type of situation in the past? Some argue “community welfare” or “laws” are above individual rights. How does this tie in to the NASW Code of Ethics and what is your ethical obligation as a social worker and to the client?

Essay Part 2
How would this scholarship help you meet your career goals and are there any special circumstances that you believe make you a better candidate for receiving this award?
