The Grand Challenges for Social Work Initiative (GCSWI), which is
spearheaded by the American Academy of Social Work and Social
Welfare (AASWSW), represents a major endeavor for the entire field
of social work. GCSWI calls for bold innovation and collective
action powered by proven and evolving scientific interventions to
address critical social issues facing society. The purpose of GCSWI
was modeled after the National Academy of Engineering, which aimed
to identify some of the most persistent engineering problems of the
day and then put the attentions, energies, and funding of the
entire field to work on them for a decade. The GCSWI does the same
for social issues, tackling problems such as homelessness, social
isolation, mass incarceration, family violence, and economic
inequality. Grand Challenges for Social Work and Society is an
edited book that will present the foundations of the GCSWI, laying
out the start of the initiative and providing summaries of each of
the twelve challenges. The 12 main chapters that form the core of
the book, one on each of the dozen Grand Challenges, are written by
the primary research teams who are driving each GC project.
