Allison was originally diagnosed with PTSD after returning from combat overseas from the Middle East by the VA and was given an honorable discharge. Allison had incurred a vast amount of trauma throughout her years as a military member including sexual assault by an older service member. Allison has attended mental health treatment at the VA on and off over the last 10 years.

Working with Complex Populations

select a case management manual, which serves one of the populations described in chapter 8 and report on how they work with the population in your initial post. Suggested populations include health care including hospice or chronic illness, mental health, addictions, child welfare, geriatrics, criminal justice, HIV/AIDS, military and veterans, rural communities or the homeless population.

In your post, provide a link to the case management manual you have chosen and state which model of case management is being used. Then, answer one of the following questions:

What are some of the evidence-based interventions and community resources they utilize?
How do they deal with problematic situations (such as some of those discussed in chapter 8)?
Does the agency run into any ethical or legal issues? If so, how they dealt with them?

Ethics in Evaluations

Imagine this scenario: your agency is being evaluated by a governing body. "Client success" is one key element being evaluated by the governing body. In your agency, out of 200 clients seen in the last two years, 85 (or 42.5%) dropped out within the first five weeks of participation. Of the remaining 115 clients, only 35% (40 clients) completed all of their goals, and 65% (75 clients) only completed some of their goals.

In your initial post, address the following questions: What is the most accurate and ethical representation of "success" over the past two years for this agency to report to the governing body? Support your reasoning with references.

Confucianism and Daoism.

Think about what you have learned so far about Confucianism and Daoism.

Which philosophy would create a better society? Why do you think so?

Back your argument up with at least one quote from a primary source (see links below).
The quote you choose should provide evidence for the statements you are making about why you have chosen Confucianism or Daoism.

Your quotes must come from the primary text. The primary text comes below the short introductory explanation; look for the sections with numbered verses. Do not quote from the italicized explanation at the beginning of each reading; they will not count! The goal of this assignment is to get you to work through the poetic language of the primary texts, looking for examples of the concepts we've talked about in class. These texts are not simple to understand! You many have to read them more than once.

You must cite your quotes. Use the name of the text (Analects or Daodejing) and the line number in parenth
