Strategies for social action may include peaceful protests, community organizing, advocacy campaigns, and using social media to raise awareness. Tactics may involve mobilizing people, lobbying government officials, creating petitions, and engaging in civil disobedience to bring about social change. Both strategies and tactics should align with the goals and values of the social movement.

Service led means assessing the service user in respect of the services that are available and would best meet their needs. Needs led means identifying an individual's needs and planning the best way that they can be met irrespective of what is currently available. Care plans should be reviewed on the basis of "does this service meet the needs of the service user or should more appropriate means be considered?"

Both macro- and micro-level approaches in sociology are valuable in explaining social life. Macro-level focuses on large-scale patterns and structures that shape society as a whole, while micro-level examines individual interactions and experiences. The best approach depends on the specific research question, as both are essential for a comprehensive understanding of social life.

Human service workers use behavioral tools, such as behavior modification techniques or cognitive-behavioral strategies, to help individuals modify their behaviors, thoughts, and emotions.

Through the implementation of these tools, human service workers can help individuals develop new skills, coping mechanisms, and healthier ways of thinking and behaving.

Here is a little secret to understanding behavior and being a successful manager: It is actually the same as running a daycare center. If you pay attention, you will realize that the only real difference between an adult and a child is their height. The foundation of your personality (your personal blueprint to interpret the world and navigate through life) is fully developed in the first 5 years of your life. It is just more difficult to see in adults than it is with kids because adults have more experience in concealing it. Try it sometime. Pretend the group of adults at work are all 6 year olds. You will find that at the end of the day that the approach you followed to constructively resolve all of the issues with the adults would be the same approach you would have applied to a group of 6 year olds. lol

In Mom Luby and the Social Worker by Kristin Hunter we have the theme of love, responsibility, kindness, bureaucracy, connection, innocence and change. Narrated in the first person by a young thirteen year old boy called Elijah the reader realises after reading the story that Hunter may be exploring the theme of love. Mom Luby puts both Elijah and his sister Pudding before everyone else. She knows that it is her responsibility to look after them and as such goes to the government buildings seeking help (welfare). This may be important as Mom Luby knows that she is not entitled to welfare for the children but as they have no one else to look after them she takes on the responsibility. Whereas others might let Elijah and Pudding fend for themselves. Mom Luby knows that this is not an option. If anything Mom Luby is driven by doing the right thing for Elijah and Pudding. Knowing well that their lives would be even more difficult should they be left to their own devices. In reality Mom Luby is Elijah and Pudding’s mother in everything but name. She treats both children as though they were her own. She is kind to them and firm when she needs to be.

It may also be important that Miss Rushmore spends all of her time in Mom Luby’s home asking Mom Luby questions. Questions that Mom Luby may not necessarily have the right answer for. It is possible that Hunter is suggesting that with bureaucracy comes difficulty. Technically Mom Luby is entitled to nothing from the welfare office as neither Elijah nor Pudding are her children. However Hunter might be suggesting that some things like parentage should be overlooked if an individual is doing the job of a parent. As Mom Luby is doing. Life would be far more difficult for Elijah and Pudding without Mom Luby’s influence in their lives and it would cost the government very little to bend their rules a little. Miss Rushmore also appears to be judging Mom Luby by her extracurricular activities when the reality is she is a poor woman who is providing a service to other poor people. It is as though there is a disconnect between Miss Rushmore and Mom Luby. With Miss Rushmore being in disbelief as to how Mom Luby lives her life.

Throughout the story Mom Luby is honest. With the exception of her being Elijah and Pudding’s mother. She does not hide anything from Miss Rushmore. When the reality is she probably should. This may be important as it could suggest that Mom Luby is somewhat innocent. It could also suggest that Mom Luby and Miss Rushmore live two entirely different lives. With Hunter symbolically suggesting that the government (or Miss Rushmore) have no idea how people live their lives. It may also be case that Hunter is comparing both traditional and modern roles. Mom Luby knows how to do a lot of things however she is qualified to do none. That is if you take qualification to mean a piece of paper from a university or a government agency. If anything Mom Luby has learnt to do things from those who went before her. When there was no need for academic qualifications. Something which Miss Rushmore frowns upon. The list of forms that Mom Luby is told to fill out may also have some symbolic significance as Hunter could again be placing a spotlight on just how burdensome bureaucracy is to an individual. Not only has Mom Luby got to fill out the forms but she has to go to different buildings to fill out each form.

It is as though there are two sides of life in play in the story. The practical life of Mom Luby who carries on despite the difficulties she may incur and the impractical world of Miss Rushmore. It is also interesting that Miss Rushmore is in shock after she spends her day with Mom Luby. It is as though she can’t believe that Mom Luby does so much and is not qualified to do what she does. Without knowing it Mom Luby is breaking all the rules. Something that may be alien to Miss Rushmore. Who at times in the story is as rigid in her beliefs as she is in her appearance. It might also be a case that life will not change for Mom Luby. She has no intention of filling out all the forms and Miss Rushmore does not appear to be at the type of woman who will bend the rules for Mom Luby. Even if she is drinking illegally in Mom Luby’s back room. At the end of the story the reader realises that neither Mom Luby nor Miss Rushmore are going to change their ways with Mom Luby prepared to continue living her life without the assistance of the government.
