Interview and Social History

This module addressed a variety of tools that may be used to gather the information needed to help guide case management and decision-making for the client. After reading all of the assigned chapters this week, use the strategies outlined in Chapters 15 and 16 to interview a friend or acquaintance – NOT a family member or “significant other.” From that interview, develop a social history on the person.

  • Describe in a few sentences how you recruited someone to let you interview them (3-4 sentences).
  • Write up a complete social history on the person (at least 800 words) using the outline in Chapter 16.
  • Keep the person’s name and any personally identifiable information anonymous. For example, do not say, “This is my father.”
  • Include a title page with proper headers and page numbers.
