Macro Supervisor Plan
Students will prepare a brief macro supervision plan to include and assess policy practice and social justice issues at the macro level. Identify a community in which you are the “supervisor” and then identify a macro level issue that may impact the work of one of your supervisees. Develop a brief vignette around what your supervisee brings to you as an issue their client is facing because of the macro level challenge. You will develop a plan for an intervention with the supervisee for how to address the issue at the MACRO level to help improve overall services for clients. Paper will use scholarly writing style and APA formatting, double spaced, 4 pages in length, not including the cover page and references. COVER PAGE AND REFERENCES a must!
