OLC Course: Reconstructing the Narrative (February 22, 2023)
 Description

Reconstructing the Narrative:

How clients tell stories and how practitioners deconstruct stories

Presented by the Ontario Association of Social Workers  (OASW) 


Course Description

The course examines how racialized clients use storytelling to navigate service delivery and how social work practitioners deconstruct stories of racialized clients. It explores the mental health impact of having a story deconstructed as a racialized person. Finally, the course asks practitioners to examine how the questions they ask can validate and reconstruct a client’s identity.
