December 4,2023 Professional Identity Statement Empathy, equitability, and advancement as a human services professional are what motivates me to make my society more equitable. I am strongly guided by my professional ethics, which push me towards fighting for both individual and community rights (Trede, Macklin, & Bridges, 2012). All man is born equal, and, therefore, they should be treated in an equal manner regardless of their background or geographical origin. As such, it remains my endeavour aimed at dismantling discriminative social mechanisms that marginalize societal minority groups. A leader does not just happen, but it entails a promise of creating teamwork and igniting actual changes. Leadership is more than a title of command. It’s a drive to instil team spirit, listening to one another, and enabling everyone to contribute their best for all. It is my vision to emulate leadership traits that enhance creative ideas, courage, and principle-oriented characteristics that foster permanency in the human service field (Trede, Macklin, & Bridges, 2012). Leadership, for me, is about careful listening, inclusivity, and helping teamwork to record joint triumphs. All in all, I attempt to foster an environment whereby innovation flowers, endurance thrives, and decency commands sustainable changes. The passion has come about as a result of my career path, background, and my determination to provide such mental health services. Specifically, my resolve is directed at minimizing disparities in the provision of mental healthcare services among poor communities suffering culture-based discrimination, exclusion, and poverty (Bridges, 2018). Firstly, I promote the rights of LGBTQIA persons and help individuals who are survivors of trauma. Moreover, such fields correspond to my social justice mission, which involves helping human services build friendly, hospitable environments for everyone within a given community.

December 27, 2023 Advanced human services professional practitioner role The advanced human services professional role that interests me so far is a community outreach worker. A community outreach worker serves an important role in assisting local communities by improving various aspects including health, education, and safety outcomes (Szelest et al., 2021). They are really important in a community as they engage in activities including lobbying for specific issues in the community with politicians. The choice is based on my resolve to help dismantle discriminative social mechanisms that marginalize societal minority groups. I endeavor to work with marginalized communities and be able to help lobby for specific issues that may be affecting marginalized communities. As a community outreach worker, I will be able to positively impact the community in different ways. The impact of my role to the community will be significant especially in helping families and individuals from marginalized communities to access health care and social services (Roy et al., 2021). The positive impact on the community is the biggest motivation why I would prefer the role of a community outreach worker. One of the changes that I would like to make to my professional identity statement is working with marginalized communities. I would like to work with all communities and not just focus on marginalized communities. This will be important in ensuring I perform my role as a community outreach worker. Certain communities are not marginalized but have huge populations of vulnerable people like women, children, the elderly, and others. Therefore, working with every community will allow me to also serve even those who are vulnerable in these communities. I would be able to lobby for specific issues that are affecting families and others to help the vulnerable populations. References Roy, M., Lavoie-Trudeau, É., Roy, M.
