Homework: The Value of Empowerment in Middle Adulthood
Understanding different developmental themes and how they can be applied to people at different ages and stages of life is important as a human service professional. It is important to know how to use the knowledge that you have learned and be able to relate it to clients you are working with, so that a reciprocal relationship can develop whereby both the human service professional and the client can feel empowered to develop goals and interventions that will help to produce positive outcomes for the client.
