Choose a cultural group of which you are not a part and that you currently or will likely interact with in your social work practice.

· Describe briefly the group you have chosen.

· Identify your current level of knowledge about the group.
· Explain and describe how your interest in this group emerges from your current work.
· Analyze differentiation in diversity for the selected population.
· Justify your choice of population:
· Why did you choose this population?
· What implications do you foresee for your area and field of practice or for the population?
For this presentation I would like to concentrate on the LGBTQ community. This group is of interest to me because I have been seeing more same sex couples and families within my small community and I have not had the pleasure of working with any of those families at this time. In all transparency, I am interested in challenging myself in setting aside my religion and personal beliefs to aid in creating a world where helping people is the primary goal, not personal opinion. My hope is to learn about others different than myself, grow as a person and implement new skills that will help me to become the social worker I would want if I were in need.
