Disrupting Privilege through Anti-Oppressive Practice

This course examines the barriers to the professional use of self as an ally to historically disenfranchised groups, both in the context of day-to-day relationships with clients as well as in the context of community and macro-level interventions. It will help you understand the personal, situational, structural and cultural influences that impede justice-oriented social work practice. You will develop strategies, skills and approaches to anti-oppressive practice.
