My three engagement activities of service, leadership and internship complemented each other very well, because all three of my experiences taught me what it meant to be a well-rounded leader. Throughout my entire engagement within the program it was very surprising to see many connections overlap within each activity. The first one I realized that I had practiced with all three activities was social engagement, me practicing social engagement was included in all three of my activities by me…

For my experiential learning experiences I had the pleasure of visiting both the Ahtanum Ridge Clinic and the Yakima Valley Regional Hospital medical records. Before visiting these facilities I constructed questions beforehand to ensure I would not only have a valuable experience, but be able to compare facilities as well. These questions were; 1.

Framework of my Social Work Experience My social work experience so far has been filled with ups and downs. I have learned a lot in this experience, and I am glad for that. Going into my practicum, I was not sure what I would be able to do while not having a license.
