Maternal and Child Health Leadership Program in Social Work: An Alumni Survey
O'Reilly, Nicole L.; Pecukonis, Edward V.; DeForge, Bruce R.
Journal of Social Work Education, v55 n4 p798-808 2019
Since 2003 MSW students at an urban university have participated in a problem-based learning maternal and child health (MCH) leadership training program sponsored by the Health Resources and Services Administration. This survey examined overall satisfaction with a leadership training program as well as self-reported leadership competencies in social work practice among 30 scholars. Descriptive statistics indicate overall satisfaction with the leadership program and its individual components. Scholars ranked themselves highest on leadership competencies related to self and others and lowest on competencies related to the broader community. Future leadership programs should focus on methods to improve self-efficacy on policy and research efforts to strengthen social work leadership skills inMCH social work practice.
