Family law such as adoption requirements, removal of parental rights, and child support requirements.
Differences in legal standards in different types of work settings (e.g. working in hospitals versus working in corrections).
Legal standards for social workers such as involuntary hospitalizations and reporting potentially dangerous clients.
Length: 2-4 pages

Your journal entry should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.
