Overview
Written for all social workers who are committed to helping those most in need, this stimulating volume offers creative ideas and practical examples for meeting human needs through social group work. It is an empowering and comprehensive book that integrates concepts from social group work's past and present with ecological, anthropological, feminist, and radical approaches to working with the poor. Rich with examples, Group Work With the Poor and Oppressed translates abstract theory into practice realities with minority teenage girls, homeless men and women, guests in soup kitchens, and residents of welfare hotels. All practitioners and students who seek to understand and use group work in helping people adapt, cope, and initiate social change must read this exciting and thought-provoking new book.Book Details
