The six core values are Service, Social Justice, Dignity of worth of the person, Importance of the Human Relationship, Integrity, and Competence. Service is helping someone with nothing to gain. For example a lawyer doing a pro bono case. Social justice is basically fair and just the relationship between the individual and society. Its a political concept that all people should have equal rights to wealth, health, well-being, justice and opportunity. Let's say for example, Nj Family Health is for people that are in college and also people who can't afford private insurance. Dignity of worth of the person is social workers for example treating people respectfully and caring in general about the person. It is also not judging anyone, being …show more content…
Its ok to be wrong, but you have to have other things ready if things don't go as planned. There are steps within the Evidence Based Practice which are, “ Step One” is to get as much information to improve service, validity is the word to be exact. Step two is to compare results to experience and the last step is to how to use the information. If I was given geneffes case I would take in consideration that brain injuries in general are very hard for the family and this situation needs to be handled delicately. The first thing I would do is look up everything I could find on Traumatic brain injury, because i've spoken to many faculties in the Social work department and as a social worker or any job in general you will have to be open to learning more about your field and when new information comes up. Next I would think back to my father who has a disability and think about how he went through so much, with him dying twice on the table and losing brain activity its was hard for him to do simple things like he was so used to doing.The last thing I would do is go over the information and then I would work on how he’s feeling about the process of his first trial and get his reaction to it and if and see if it’s a good fit for him, if it was not up to the clients standards I would move on to something more difficult or bring him down a peg because he wasn’t ready for that step. If he was liking the first approach I decided to use I would keep him there to a certain extent and then keep moving up each time if that’s what was needed. But If my client needs to take a step down I would encourage him to not get discouraged because everybody moves at their own pace. I would also talk to the family separately and make sure they understand that the client needs positive energies around him all the time because when dealing with the brain anything can set them off and you have to be ready for
Make sure that the individual’s voice has been heard and that they are included in any decisions made if the individual lacks capacity it may be good to bring in family or an advocate to speak on behalf of the individual so that they still have a voice and their choices and rights are still there for them.

I have learned a lot after identifying my top 7 core values now I will compare them on a personal level, local level, and a global level. The first core value I identified was economic security, and I can compare this on all three levels. On a personal level, I contribute on a daily basis by working at The Home Depot. By working at The Home Depot, I contribute to my economic security by making a salary which helps pay for school. On a local level part of the money I make goes to taxes which help local citizens afford food and healthcare. Globally I contribute by helping people install greener and more environmentally friendly options. The second core value that I discovered that was important to me is health.

There are six core values outlined in the National Association of Social Work (NASW) Code of Ethics. These values include service, social justice, dignity and worth of a person, the importance of human relationships, integrity, and competence. I am going to focus on social justice, dignity and worth of a person, and integrity. I feel that these values are imperative to the social work practice. The first core value I want to address is social justice.
Another ethical principles from the core values that I feel is strongly needed is social justice. I feel that is where Social Workers can make the most difference. Challenging the injustice vulnerable population face would help them get access to more resources. Challenging those injustice would also bring much needed awareness on issues vulnerable population faces daily. Social Justice is important because it would give policymakers the push they need to make changes regarding those defenseless

Black lives matter has become a great start to a new social justice movement across America. The support of this movement have grown ever so rapidly, since being founded in the summer of 2013. This social movement started the beginning of a fascinatingly new generational era of those represented in the black community, much of whom are the faces of society’s biggest victims of racial discrimination and oppression. The reason being is due to the fact of how this movement caught the public’s attention. That was through the power of the media, but most importantly social media. Many believe that cyberspace is what taints our generation’s mind by serving as a distraction which keeps us out of touch with realty. Though the founders of this movement

The notion of justice is existence of proper balance of rights and its access under the laws of land. It refers to not depriving any person from availing privileges, opportunities etc. John Rawls writes, "Each person possesses an inviolability founded on justice that even the welfare of society as a whole cannot override"It means that the interaction in a society must be free from any sort of discrimination such as religion, race, color, caste or sex. It ensures fair distribution of assets and equal opportunity. José P. Laurel defines Social Justice as “Social justice is neither communism, nor despotism, nor atomism, nor anarchy, but the humanization of laws and the equalization of social and economic forces by the state so that justice in its rational and objectively secular conception may at least be approximated.”
Social justice is a long debated subject that continues to prove controversial and divisive all over the world. Opinions on what constitutes social justice vary on a continuum from more conservative opinions which note individual responsibility to a more liberal stance which promotes a moral responsibility to support social equality (Mapp, 2008). Despite the varying opinions of what establishes social justice, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) serves as the first step in promoting social justice by outlining the basic rights that should be afforded to humanity (United Nations, n.d.). More specifically, Article 22 of the UDHR states that all people should have access to social security protection that works to provide essential needs, provisions for preserving dignity, and freedom to pursue personal interest (United Nations, n.d.). In spite of the established declaration, social justice remains unavailable for too many people. Worldwide, the lack of social protection leads to 1.4 billion people struggling to meet their essential needs due to lack of access to resources which promote a decent standard of living. Another 100 million fall into poverty due to unforeseen complications (GIPSPSI, 2011). Therefore, there is a crucial need to recognize social protection as a human right in order to guarantee equal access to basic services and equal opportunity to all of humankind.
Social justice is mutually a practice and a goal. The goal of social justice is complete and equal contribution by all people in a society that is equally designed to meet their needs. Social justice allows for all members of society to be physically and psychologically safe and secure. It is a set of values that allow us to understand what is right and wrong in our world regardless of race, culture and economic status. That we take care of those in need of help, so that they can take care of themselves. Social justice allows equal rights and opportunities to everyone in society.
In addition to my mission statement, my core life values are the foundation of my mission statement, which allows me to uphold my promises and standards. These promises and standards will afford me the opportunity to improve the life of others and myself for the better. Therefore, there are four particular core values that I live by each and every day. The four values are commitment, compassion, dedication, and optimism. The first core value, commitment, embodies the theme of loyalty and honor. I work hard each day to live up to the promises that I make to finish tasks, help others, and meet the expectations that I place on myself or by others. The second core value that I live by is compassion because I wholeheartedly believe in being kind to everyone and helping those in need. The third value that I live by is dedication. Along with the previous two values, dedication is an important factor because being dedicated to someone or something allows a person to display that person’s character of being steadfast and passionate—even in the face of adversity. The fourth and final value that is a foundation for my personal mission is
