Content: The goal of this assignment is to critically and analytically examine your own social and familial genealogy vis-à-vis one of your strongly held values/beliefs. Students should first identify a strongly held value/belief and then explore how this strongly held value/belief came to be within their familial and cultural context. In their analysis students should reflect on the following questions:
· What, specifically, is the value/belief that you hold? Make sure to explain what this value means to you. What is one recent example from your everyday life that illustrates this belief or value?
· What were some of the messages you received as a younger person about this value?
· Who else is your family shares this value/belief? Who does not share this belief?
· How was this value/belief transmitted to members of your family intergenerationally?
· How has this strongly held value/belief been shaped by other key mentors/role models in your life? How has this belief/value changed over time?
· How is this value congruent and/or incongruent with social work values and ethics? What challenges will you face as a social worker with this particular value/belief?
In what ways does your story intersect with systemic privileges and/or marginalized experiences? Connect your story with the larger story of our society.
Students are strongly encouraged to use Ponterro (2014) as a model for their analysis.
