ECOMAP

PART B INSTRUCTIONS ;

In this section, you will submit Part B of your paper. Please use all directions that were provided in Module 6. The intentions of Part B are to explain your Ecomap to the client. This means you will need to address everything on your Ecomap with clarity and simplicity. The ecomap is a wonderful tool that practitioners use to assess specific troubles and plan interventions for the client. The ecomap is a drawing of the client/family in its social environment. An ecomap is usually drawn jointly by the social worker and the client. It helps both the worker and the client achieve a holistic or ecological view of the client’s family life and the nature of the family life and the nature of the family’s relationship with groups, associations, organizations, other families and individuals.

You are to have no less than 10 numbered circles on the ecomap. Each numbered circle will coincide with the same numbered paragraph in Part B. 10 topics=10 paragraphs.

Part “A” of this assignment is the eco-map drawing.

Part “B” of this assignment are the explanation paragraphs that explain what the ecomap drawing means.

Circle #1 on the Ecomap “Part A” will be explained in paragraph #1 in Part “Part B.”

Circle #2 on the Ecomap will be explained in paragraph #2 in “Part B”, and so on.

Your outer topic circle may be attached to more than one name inside the center circle. This is fine. This means that you will address each person that you have connected to the outer topic circle.

You will be providing two resources for each person(s) and their topic that you are addressing. You will explain how the resources could be beneficial for the person.

You are to provide the name, address and phone number of each resource. You are to research the area where you live and provide resources from your areas. If you need to research the next closest town then do so.

Do not provide a link as a resource. You must open the link that you wish to provide as a resource and provide the client with a name, address and a contact number for service. Do not expect this family to know how to navigate a computer.

If I were writing this assignment, I would start with Luis and address his needs, as well as my intentions as his caseworker. For example I would make a list for myself and write down everything that is concerning to me regarding Luis. Do not submit your own list in this assignment.

In this section, you will have 10 Paragraphs of explanation and 20 Resources (At least two per topic). That means if you have “healthcare” in an outer circle and a line going to Maria, what are two names of places that you are going to link Maria to for healthcare services?

Provide the Name, address and phone number of each.
