00:01 - 00:04
I enjoyed learning about the core values and macho for
00:04 - 00:07
and have come to my own personal conclusion that every
00:08 - 00:10
person working in the social services sector must have a
00:11 - 00:14
natural tendency to live by certain standards and values that
00:15 - 00:17
align with the social work codes of ethics.
00:18 - 00:21
I strongly identify with all six of the core values,
00:22 - 00:24
but I also believe that at times you may favor
00:25 - 00:27
one over the other depending on your current circumstances.
00:29 - 00:31
I would like to discuss why the core value pursuit
00:32 - 00:34
of social justice sends out to me.
00:35 - 00:37
Pursuing social justice is a core value and guiding principle
00:38 - 00:38
of mine.
00:39 - 00:41
I truly believe in treating all individuals fair and equal
00:42 - 00:47
and promoting social fairness and the equitable distribution of resources
00:48 - 00:51
and act to reduce barriers and expand choices for all
00:51 - 00:55
persons with especially regard for those who are marginalized, disadvantaged,
00:56 - 00:58
vulnerable and or have exceptional needs.
00:59 - 01:02
As mentioned in the Canadian Association of Social work for
01:02 - 01:04
diabetics is deeply ingrained in me.
01:05 - 01:08
I have been working with individuals from many different backgrounds,
01:09 - 01:12
genders, age and belief systems and a common denominator for
01:13 - 01:17
all is the fact that prey prejudice and maltreatment, racism,
01:18 - 01:21
disadvantage, violence and other forms of injustice can and does
01:22 - 01:26
happen to many challenging all form of injustices is to
01:26 - 01:27
pursue social justice.
01:28 - 01:32
As a social worker, I feel morally obligated to include
01:32 - 01:34
political engagement in my practice.
01:35 - 01:39
I will advocate for the vulnerable, marginalized and disadvantaged and
01:40 - 01:41
raise awareness about their situation.
01:42 - 01:47
May be poor living conditions, maltreatment, poverty, discrimination, racism or
01:47 - 01:49
any other form of social injustice.
