Generalist Social Work Practice: An Empowering Approach

These authors reconnect contemporary social work with its values, purpose, ethics, and practice roots by integrating the current themes of strength, empowerment, and the ecosystems perspective into a practice process that has applications across all levels of client systems and all fields of practice. This book uses a generalist approach to social work by offering practice processes that are appropriate to client systems of all sizes (individuals, families, groups, organizations), and emphasizes "client strengths" as an integral part of the process. Designed for new and practicing social workers.
