Description
You are playing the role of a community service worker supporting a young adult son who is 18 years old who is seeking an order to protect himself from family violence perpetrated by his step-father at home where the son lives with his mother and step-father.
You are required to investigate court and relevant support services that are applicable to your local jurisdiction and submit a written Support Plan for your client (i.e., the 18 year old son).
Based on your individual research, your written Support Plan must include the following:
The location and role of the local court in the context of seeking a family violence protection order;
A summary of the legal process as it relates to protecting the adult son from family violence by order of the court;
An overview of the local support services available in connection with the court and external to the court that would assist your client;
An explanation of how you (as the community service worker) would prepare if you received a subpoena to both submit your file notes, and attend court as a witness in this case;
Identify and discuss two ethical issues that could arise for you in your role as a community service professional assisting the adult son in this matter. Include a description of how you would respond to the ethical issues that you have identified.
Structure of essay
As the assignment conveniently provided five issues there is a lot of sense to follow them as they form the basis of assessment criteria and use them as major headings, accompanied by an introduction and summary.
If there are identifiable sub-issues or topics within any of the issues (which are represented by headings), then it can be a good strategy to also include a limited number of sub-headings under each of the five major headings
References
You must include a reference section in your report and acknowledge any sources that you use, including all web-based sources. You must use APA 7 referencing. Please include at least five sources.
