, Competency 9: Evaluate Practice with Individuals, Families, Groups, Organizations, and
Communities
Introduction to Competency 9
This evidence, Competency 9: Evaluate Practice with Individuals, Families, Groups,
Organizations, and Communities, mandates and helps the social workers to understand that
evaluation is an ongoing or dynamic process. It is also an interactive strategy that helps them
assess the level and success of their interventions with their social work clients, evaluating the
practices with diverse individuals, populations, and their families, communities, or
organizations. This process must be conducted in social work to ensure the assessment and
monitoring of social work processes and their outcomes (CSWE, 2022). This helps determine
their effectiveness and efficiency, especially in relation to service delivery, practice, and social
work policies. It is also crucial for social workers to integrate the different social work
perspectives and theories during the evaluation to ensure informed practice and the use of
evidence-based strategies. For instance, some of the perspectives that could prove useful in this
step include anti-racist and anti-oppressive perspectives. The theories may consist of some
pertinent to the social work profession, including the person-in-environment and the theory of
human behavior. The social work conceptual framework could also be integrated, including the
interprofessional framework, which is critically helpful for evaluating social work outcomes
(CSWE, 2022). The student will demonstrate an understanding of this competency throughout
this paper by using various artifacts that include; Artifact 1: Program Development Proposal
Plan: Building Bricks (Program Development SOCW 5376-050), Artifact 2: The Impact of
Trauma and Adversity on Mental Health in Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME)
