You are a human services professional at an emergency shelter. A major flood has recently occurred in a nearby community, destroying many homes and businesses. Your new clients are the Rodriguez family: father, Michael; mother, Sarah; and twin 9-year-old daughters, Cynthia and Mary. The Rodriguez family has lost their home in the flood, and does not have flood insurance. In addition, the family's livelihood has been compromised because the restaurant where Sarah worked was destroyed in the flood. Michael is a full-time student, so the family has lost its only source of income. Identify and briefly describe the crisis/es facing the Rodriguez family. Describe the basic needs that first must be addressed for the family. Describe what the family's ongoing needs will be. Explain which issues will need to be addressed in order to remove the Rodriguez family from their current crisis/es. Explain which model(s) of intervention you might use to address the family's basic and ongoing needs, and why. Select at least three specific skills and/or strategies that would assist you in implementing the model(s) you selected. Then explain how you might execute these skills and/or strategies and why they might be effective in addressing the family's basic and ongoing needs. Support your Application Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list only for those resources not included in the Learning Resources for this course.
