Literature Review

The literature review is a critical component of a proposal. This section highlights what has been achieved related to your topic. Answer the following questions: What is Civilization/Cultural Jihad? What is the background/history of Civilization/Cultural Jihad? What Constitutes Violent Jihad? What is the history of Violent Jihad? How does Civilization Jihad and Violent Jihad interplay and what role does either play within the context of the global war on terror as prosecuted by the United States? What comprises the intelligence community? What role does the intelligence community play both within the context of Civilization Jihad and Violent Jihad? What threats are posed by both Civilization Jihad and Violent Jihad for the West? What can or should be done to address the potential threats of Civilization Jihad and Violent Jihad? What are the central themes and arguments in current literature? What is missing from current literature? Scholarly articles are required. Although some information from government sources may be used sparingly, approximately 80% of the review should incorporate recent scholarly articles (published within the last 10 years). Do not state your opinion in this section. All information provided must be properly cited and must be from quality academic sources. To achieve this, use direct quotations, paraphrases, and synthesized information from multiple sources. For example, this statement synthesizes the opinions of 4 scholars: “Researchers have argued that disaster planning is critical to minimizing the negative effects for emergency responders (Brown, 2010; Caldwell, 2009; Moore, 2011; Stanley, 2008).” Conclusion Summarize your findings. What are the key points in the literature with regards to how it impacts both the intelligence community as well as efforts by the West to prosecute the global war on terror? Additionally, which form of Jihad poses the greatest threat to the West and why? What type of response is needed? What or who should be engaged (e.g., intelligence community, military, federal law enforcement, local law enforcement citizens, etc.)? What specific issues do you see as the greatest challenge to confronting both forms of Jihad?

Joanne’s post: As being problem with alcohol and that he’s been battling with bouts of depression for many years. He states that whenever he is presented with a problem, whether it be work or family related he turns to alcohol to cope with his problems. After reviewing my notes in Sammy’s case my observations, results of his Cage and MAST test, I have a challenging decision to make due to Sammy not just having a problem with alcohol but with depression also. I evaluated that Sammy suffers from Substance Abuse and Dysthymia. I based my decision on Sammy’s history of abuse of alcohol and its persistence;however,it is not severe enough to meet the criteria for substance dependence. Based upon the challenges faced by the patient I would utilize positive psychology approach such as psychological therapies and self-help groups such as Alcohol Anonymous. I do believe these options would be beneficial in helping Sammy maintain a healthier lifestyle. After encouraging the Sammy by suggesting that recovery is possible not just for a select few, the positive psychologist then begins to work with the addict to re-envision life and begin a process of self-discovery in which the patient comes to know what activities and relationships are most important to him (Seligman, 2004). As being human service professional,I would follow codes of ethics that focus broadly on standards of practice that are inseparable from the behaviors and ideas that workers bring to the profession. The National Organization for Human Services crafted its Ethical Standards for Human Service Professionals to consider ethics in terms of the responsibilities human service workers have to clients, the community and society, colleagues, employers, the profession and the workers’ selves. Under these ethical standards I will do everything possible to safeguard the privacy and confidentiality of Sammy information. Aside from direct service with this patient I would have an ethical responsibility to advocate for client, community empowerment, and to protest social injustice NOHS. (n.d.).

Tanisha’s post: Option 2: Professional Challenges

My client is a 32 year old woman with 5 young children and she faces substance abuse and alcoholism and has failed to return back to her treatment classes or contacted her counselor in several weeks. My client has not seen her children in about 6 months due to substance abuse. Life has taking a toll on my clientshe wants to give up on herself and her children. Some approaches I would take in helping my clientis increase the frequency of contact that is given to my client if it’s a phone call, to a house visit I want my client to know I am here for them every step of the way . I also would encourage my client to contact other group members to reinforce the value of reaching out for support to not ever feel alone and think they are in this by their self. As the counselor I want to make continual efforts to follow up with clients on their day to day living. After reviewing the cultural competence elements that are identified in the National Organization for Human Services’ Ethical Standards for Human Services Professionals the fundamental values of the human services profession include respecting the dignity and welfare of all people; promoting self-determination; honoring cultural diversity; advocating for social justice; and acting with integrity, honesty, genuineness and objectivity. Using these ethical standards clients should have ready access to the services they need and should receive equal treatment for equal need. This is particularly important for people who have dual or multiple problems as they are often referred from one service to another without receiving appropriate treatment. Services should be relevant and responsive to the individual needs of clients. They should be appropriate for the client’s gender, social circumstances, ethnic and cultural background and take into account any other problems or disabilities the person may have. . The client’s values, expectations and belief systems should be respected. I would consider using the Psychology approach in helping this young woman find support from other people in her community and attend group sessions. Participating in these sessions can provide a strong network of support for individuals, where they feel less alone knowing that others are experiencing something similar.

PART II

The job requirements demanded additional skills that I do not possess (Parker and Brown, 2014). I had to adjust my resume a little bit to fit most of the requirements that were highlighted in the job description. Here are the changes that I made to my resume after analyzing the job requirements.

I had to change some of the keywords that I had in my initial resume. I did this to adhere to the job description.

I had to change my career objectives to rhyme with the description that was given. In the job description, there was a requirement of a person able to handle students. I had to include the role that I played while at school, related to the job description.

The skills required which I did not poses include a master’s degree, experience in offering online classes, and expertise in teaching non-traditional settings to students.

I feel I do not have all the requirements, but I can handle the job.

I did alter keywords to align my resume with the job description of a Family Services/Family Involvement Coordinator After I reviewed the description, I was able to add additional duties that I have accomplished. Based off of my records, I already possess many of the skills required for a manager and leader in this profession because of the positions I have worked in my career. The description of this profession seeks a professional who is able to deliver a variety of competent services to a wide range of individuals. This profession involves coordinating, developing, and implementing systems as well as maintaining programs which is something I have done throughout my career. My work with diverse groups will aide me since one of the requirements is working with families of various racial, social and cultural backgrounds. I haven’t had much experience working with low income families, so I may require additional training. One skill I don’t possess is being bilingual. Speaking Spanish isn’t required but it is a plus. I possess many of the skills desired for this position therefore, I qualify for this position. The next step would be for me to apply.
