Here is an important look at creative ways to successfully blend
theoretical knowledge with skillful intervention in social group
work. Theory and Practice in Social Group Work represents leading
works in conceptual development that creatively connect practice
with theory and also reflect the current diversity of interventions
in group work practice. The book calls for more carefully
articulated connections between knowledge and action and maps a
strategy for strengthening social work curriculum and expanding
group work practice. Some of the areas discussed include group work
in medical and health settings, group work with people undergoing
life cycle transitions, and group work interventions with
vulnerable populations. A wide range of possibilities for applying
theories in group work situations are presented in this
thought-provoking volume. Some specific examples discussed include
group work interventions with persons affected by the AIDS crisis
and persons at high risk of contracting HIV, a group model for the
management of chronic pain, group intervention services for the
homeless mentally ill delivered through a mobile outreach team, a
bingo group in an SRO hotel, group work with adults molested as
children, and a model of practice for work with minority
populations and communities.
