This unique volume demonstrates the effectiveness of applying an
evidence-based practice process to the solution of selected social
problems. It focuses on social work interventions addressing
family, community, and societal factors. Research indicates that
reinforcement for positive behavior at the group, organizational,
and community levels, as opposed to interventions focusing on the
individual, are more likely to result in meaningful improvement in
well-being. Chapters address issues such as child maltreatment,
educationally disadvantaged children, violence in schools,
adolescent sexuality, substance abuse, crime, urban decline and
homelessness, unemployment, marital conflict, and chronic medical
problems. Empirically Based Interventions Targeting Social Problems
is a relevant resource for practitioners and counseling
professionals whose work involves interventions with children and
families as well as communities. It also is a useful text for
graduate students in social work as well as students preparing for
other helping professions including psychology, sociology, marital
and family counseling, and child development.
