in our society. Although the forms of abuse, as
well as the intensity and duration can vary from
case to case, each abused person is tasked with
dealing with the scars left from the abuse. As
you can imagine, this task can be very
challenging to say the least. Using research to
help you form an opinion, which form of capital
(social or human capital) do you feel will have a
greater influence over resources accessible to
the abused? Discuss which form of capital you
would rely on for emotional support and help
through difficult times if abused. Explain your
rationale. Chapter 3 of the course text defines
these terms in more detail.

as they exist within your community. Prepare a

CLASSES VISIT www.hca430aid.com     Cost of
Health Care. Our health, or the absence of such,
can be very expensive. Many vulnerable
populations simply do not have private funds

questions What public financing resources are
available to individuals with this particular
mental condition? What are the eligibility
requirements and restrictions to receive these
funds? What happens if eligibility
standards/requirements are not met by those with
this illness?

Additionally, situations that cause extreme life
or job stress, such as those seen when a loved
one dies or by military personnel, can contribute
to the risk. Chapter 6 of your course text

vulnerable and this population group in
particular. For this discussion Locate and
