There has been a strong recent trend towards incorporating evidence
into Social Work practice in general, and into group work in
particular. This trend has focused on the education of students in
the use of evidence, development of evidence-based interventions,
and discussion of how evidence can be used to improve practice. A
limitation of most of this literature is that it has been written
by researchers for the consumption of practitioners, limiting the
ability of evidence-based practices to be incorporated into unique
community settings and with specific populations. In spite of this
difficulty, implementation of evidence-based practices continues
quietly in practice settings.
This book describes efforts to integrate evidence into community
settings, which have two foci. The first part details group models
developed through collaborations between researchers and community
agencies. Each chapter details efforts to implement, research, or
review programs in community settings. The second part deals with
issues around instruction and dissemination of evidence-based group
work into practice settings. The volume makes a significant
contribution to the discussion about evidence-based group work.
This book was published as a special issue of Social Work with
Groups.
