    The document discusses the Intercession-Mediation Model (IMM) in social work. IMM aims to navigate bureaucratic structures to benefit clients. Social workers take on roles like helper, facilitator, escort, negotiator, mediator, and intercessor to efficiently deliver services to clients. They may advocate for clients' legal rights and use confrontation, appeals, and legal/political systems as needed. Examples include advocating for women denied benefits, juvenile offenders, neglected prisoners, evicted slum dwellers, exploited farmers, and children denied school admission. The overall goal is to connect clients to needed services and obtain advantages to which they are legally entitled.

    INTERCESSION-

    MEDIATION

    BY:
    PAGAYON, KRISHA
    ABDULLAH, NORON
    OBJECTIVES:
    AT THE END THE DISCUSSION THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE
    TO:

    • KNOW WHAT IS INTERCESSION-MEDIATION MODEL


    • DETERMINE THE ROLES OF SOCIAL WORKERS IN IMM
    What is IMM?
    • Intercession-Mediation Model or IMM is a response to the often
    alienating effects of bureaucratic structures, manipulating them when
    necessary and appropriate in the interest of the clients.
    • Like the other helping models and approaches, the IMM is applied in the
    context of the social work helping process.
    • The worker has to do ASSESSMENT, PLANNING, INTERVENTION,
    EVALUATION, and TERMINATION.
    INTERCESSION-
    MEDIATION
    MODEL

    • Includes negotiating the “ SERVICE JUNGLE” for clients, whether


    individually or in groups.

    • The worker here “ CONNECTS” the clients to the system’s needed


    services until he uses them.
    Workers do a number of task on behalf of
    the clients.

    • They could be an HELPER, FACILITATOR, ESCORT, NEGOTIATOR,


    BROKER, MEDIATOR, INTERCESSOR and etc. to ensure rapid service
    delivery.
    • SCHNEIDERMAN ADDS TO THIS THE UTILIZATION OF NON-
    CONSENSUAL STRATEGIES LIKE DIRECT CONFRONTATION,
    ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL, AND THE USE OF JUDICIAL AND
    POLITICAL SYSTEMS AS APPROPRIATE. HERE THE SOCIAL
    WORKER BECOME AN INTERCESSOR/ADVOCATE.
    EXAMPLES:
    • Working with women who are denied labor benefits by their employers.
    • Juvenile offenders who are arrested.
    • Neglected prisoners who should already qualify for parole privileges.
    • Slum dwellers who are illegally evicted.
    • Farmers who are exploited by their landlords.
    • Children who are not accepted in school due to lack od documents.
    • IN THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, THE ADVOCATE MAY BE
    REQUIRED TO ARGUE, DISCUSS, BARGAIN, NEGOTIATE, OR
    INFLUENCE THE ENVIRONMENT ON FAVOR OF THE CLIENT.
    THE MAJORITY OF ADVOCACY EFFORTS ARE FOCUSED ON
    OBTAINING ADVANTAGES TO WHICH THE CLIENT IS LEGALLY
    ENTITLED.
    According to the DSWD, the Filipino client/family that found eligible for
    assistance has an average of five problems/needs:

    • Material aid
    • Problems of being jobless or with irregular or occasional work
    • With meager income or no source of support
    • Unskilled or with limited skills/education and no schooling
    • Family member with disability and etc.
    SOCIAL SERVICE
    CLIENT WORKER JUNGLE
    “ BELIEVE YOU’RE HALFWAY THERE. KEEP
    HUSTLING TO FINISH LINE.

    HAVE A GREAT DAY AHEAD.
