This course will focus on social work advocacy, building upon an anti-oppressive, structural approach to social work, addressing social location, privilege, power-over, power-with, conflict and social change. More specifically, various types of advocacy will be analyzed with reference to social movement mobilization, transformative change, and social work values. Students will be offered an opportunity to participate in advocacy, as part of the on-going advocacy processes in the community.
