“describe and evaluate professional, ethical and legal issues related to each profession.”  This assignment is designed to have you think about ethical issues in helping professions.
Clinical and Counseling Psychology have governing bodies that offer ethical guidelines for their members, as indicated below:American Counseling Association  
http://www.counseling.org/resources/aca-code-of-ethics.pdfAmerican Psychological Associationhttp://www.apa.org/ethics/code/index.aspx

However, Community Psychology does not have one major professional body that offers an ethical code.  There are, however, numerous published books and articles on the subject and community psychologists are still expected to adhere to a code of conduct that reflects the principles of community psychology.  Below is an article that gives an interesting perspective of ethics in this field(pdf on Canvas): Johnson, W. B., Barnett, J. E., Elman, N. S., Forrest, L., & Kaslow, N.J. (2012).
