Although the vast majority of LGBT persons are healthy, resilient,
and hardy individuals who do not seek social work intervention,
some have been or will be clients in social work agencies. The
third edition of Social Work Practice with Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
and Transgender People updates this classic text and expands its
scope to include new content on social work with older and younger
LGBT people. Written by a team of highly experienced experts, this
book provides a knowledge base for practice that will better
prepare students and practitioners for working sensitively,
competently, and effectively with LGBT individuals and groups.
Comprehensive and practical, this unique text discusses the
pragmatic aspects of social work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender people. It will improve and reinforce competent
practice with LGBT persons and their families in multiple settings.
Chapters focus on important topics such as: the profession's core
values and ethical principles; social work and queer theory; LGBT
and race-heterosexism, racism, and sexism; applying the life model
and the stress-coping process; practice with bisexual, transgender,
and gender non-conforming persons; relationship building between
lesbian partners; the impact of creating family for lesbian
couples; internalized homophobia, heterocentrism, and gay identity;
group work practice with the LGBTQ community; clinical assessment
for families where sexual orientation is an issue; and LGBT
parenting. There are also new chapters on social work with LGBT
young people and LGBT older people. Complete with a highly detailed
appendix of symbols, definitions, and terms, Social Work Practice
with Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender People, third edition
is an invaluable resource for social workers and mental health
professionals as well as for students and educators at all levels
of experience.
