Assignment 2: Agency Presentation

Various agencies contribute to the social services offered in social work practice. Although the goal of many social work agencies may appear the same—to offer social services to clients who need them—each agency provides a unique approach or opportunity to deliver those needs.

As a future social worker, understanding the position of your agency in reference to the world of social work practice might provide valuable perspectives for applying your professional skills.

For this Assignment, research the agency you are working with for your field education experience. Examine the characteristics of your agency in reference to the field of social work and the types of services offered to clients.

The Assignment (8–10 PowerPoint slides, voiceover): please provide the classic PowerPoint’s and  transcripts to help me in the presentation. I will need to present in class. Read the agency website and get vital information and use any normal mental health organizational plan/Structure.
