How do you evaluate the ethical appropriateness of Pierre’s approach to discussing confidentiality in his group? What specific aspects of confidentiality would you most want to inform group members about? What potential problems, if any, do you see in the way Pierre explained confidentiality to group members? Given that confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in a group, what guidelines could you set as a group leader to help assure confidentiality? (Corey, Corey, & Corey, 2019, p. 441)

part 1

Prompt

“”Pierre briefly discusses confidentiality at the first group session, saying “Anything that happens here, stays here.” He tells members that it is not necessary to go into detail in talking about confidentiality “because everyone in here already knows that confidentiality is a given.” Pierre does not let members know that confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in his group, nor does he inform them of the limitations of confidentiality in a group setting. Pierre does not invite members to raise questions they might have about confidentiality because he is anxious for his group to start working.

What sections of the ACA 2014 Code of Ethics might apply to this case?

part 2

Ronnie, an African American student, moved with his family into a mostly White community and attends high school there. Almost immediately he was on the receiving end of racial jokes and experienced social isolation. A teacher noticed his isolation and sent him to the school counselor. It is evident to the counselor that Ronnie is being discriminated against, not only by many of the students but also by some of the faculty. The counselor has no reason to doubt the information provided by Ronnie because she is aware of racism in the school and in the community. She determines that it would be much more practical to help Ronnie learn to ignore the prejudice than to try to change the racist attitudes of the school and the community.

How do you evaluate this counselor’s decision? What are its ethical ramifications? Does she have an obligation to work to change community attitudes? If you were consulted by this counselor, what suggestions would you make? Does a school system have an ethical obligation to attempt to change attitudes of a community that discriminates against some of its citizens?

What are the risks of not addressing the problem of racism? (Corey, Corey, & Corey, 2019, p. 474)”. What sections of the ACA 2014 Code of Ethics might apply to this case?
