A Case Study Exploration Start Assignment

This week you read about definitions, indications, prevalence, and consequences of
adverse childhood experiences. These micro and macro-level crises can have serious,
negative, long-term mental and physical health outcomes.

In your Cavaiola and Colford (2017) text, there are several case studies relevant to
adolescent adversity on pp. 100-108, as well as pp. 134-137 to explore.

Choose one of these cases and respond to the following questions in 3-5 pages (not
counting the cover and reference page) using the boldfaced words as headings
throughout the body of the paper for organization and structure:

● Introduction (will directly match your cover page title)
● What type of crisis is this adolescent(s) experiencing (developmental,

traumatic, existential, or psychiatric)?
● What are two guidelines to follow in considering the treatment options for

this/these adolescent(s)?
● Does mandated reporting apply in this case?
● Identify two implications of this trauma both individually and

collectively/communally.
● Identify at least two community resources that exist in your local setting

appropriate for adolescent care following the specific crisis faced.
● Offer a conclusion.
