How can social workers integrate expressive arts methods as a
complement to their work to better support individual, group, and
community growth? Expressive Arts for Social Work and Social Change
explores the values and benefits of expressive arts (i.e. visual
arts, movement and dance, expressive forms of writing and
narrative, music, and performance) and the role they can play in
social work practice and inquiry. Descriptions of projects that
feature integrated expressive arts methods clearly reveal the vast
potential of the arts and their power to effect individual and
social change. Although previous research has illustrated the
efficacy of expressive arts to individual therapeutic goals, this
is the first work that looks at the use of these approaches to
fulfill the values, ethics, and principles of the social work
profession. The contributors draw from current and emerging
concepts related to green social work, including individual and
collective well-being; Indigenous perspectives and practices;
social justice and social action; and individual as well as
collective creative expression. This book provides insight and
advice that will benefit all human service professionals interested
in expressive arts.
