Material Detail

This book is divided into three distinct parts. Part I focuses on the foundations of this practice by highlighting the importance of context, and by recognizing and respecting place using anti-oppressive perspectives. The chapters found in Part II examine practice competencies and emphasize trauma- and violence-informed approaches. The mental wellness of social workers is discussed in detail as a necessary element to ensure resilience and good practice. Finally, Part III of this book explores selected areas of practice including social work with those who have experienced abuse and intimate partner violence, work in the context of mental health issues and addictions, work with newcomers and immigrant populations, work with older adults, and child protection work.
