Review the Learning Resources on social support and vicarious resilience. If needed, revisit the video on creating an ecomap.
Access and navigate to your selected case in the Case Studies interactive media in the Learning Resources.
Create an ecomap representing the social worker’s social connections and support, based on the case study. You may draw your ecomap on paper and scan it or take a picture, or you may use a software program like Microsoft Word.
Reflect on the ecomap and consider how it would inform your next steps if the social worker were your client.
Submit a 1-page ecomap for the social worker and a 1-page analysis. In the analysis:
Describe what the ecomap reveals about your client’s social connections and support. In your description, address the extent to which the client, as a social worker, is positioned to develop vicarious resilience.
Explain how you would proceed with your client based on the ecomap.
