Disaster Social Work For decades communities around the world have suffered a great deal from the reoccurring of natural disasters and the devastations have left many in the process of rebuilding their lives by finding hopeful solutions. According to this article, "Disaster Social Work", to bring about restoration in those communities that have been affected by the natural disasters of mother nature, a practice of disaster social work helps to empower vulnerable members of communities with the recovery process. This process is based on the four stages of a duration of disasters classified by the American Red Cross. These four stages are Pre-impact, Impact, Post-impact, and Recovery. Most importantly, the purpose should include helping the emotionally and physically wounded while strengthening local communities and focusing not only on the disaster but also on the development of issues. Community organizers should support facilitators helping the community members return to their lives before the trauma. Part of this ongoing effort is to promote the self-determination of disaster survivors, by incorporating skills to assess urgent community needs and assess public health needs. However, with all that could help build a strong community recovery process, there remain unclear ethical concerns with the support of government policies. There is much need for financial management skills to comply with eligibility requirements.

With this article being relevant to the plague of natural disasters that are challenging various parts of our communities, my goal for this article is to provide substantial and supportive information that is more persuasive.

Continued Research: Ref: Clinical Social Work Journal-Jennifer Bauwens. IFRCRC. Francesco Rocca (President) According to an article in the "Clinical Social Work Journal", there has been a forty percent increase in Federally Declared Disasters in the past fifteen years. Hurricanes, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, fires, and global armed conflicts have contributed to the displacement of tens of thousands to millions of individuals all over the world. this is taken from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRCRC) societies. the rise in these natural disasters has resulted in an increase in traumatic exposures and experiences for these individuals affected by these events.

In the face of these events, the role of a Social Worker, in the disaster planning, response, and recovery phases are clear. The information, the training, and the experience of many social workers in disaster areas make them an integral part of the recovery effort. As evidence, almost 50% of all disaster mental health services in the United States, were done by social workers affiliated with the American Red Cross and The Federal Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Programs. Social workers in disaster areas pay more attention to the oppressed and disadvantaged than their own profession. They are overworked and underpaid and yet always have a smile on their faces. They are the real heroes in the disaster areas.

Assignment 9 Completed
One of the questions of the peer-viewed was for me to elaborate on the role of the social worker's responsibility in natural disaster situations. I believe this suggestion was useful because it allowed me to expand on the importance of the social worker role in disaster areas. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Priscilla neyor (talk • contribs) 22:52, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
