Inclusive Group Work offers an innovative approach to working with
intervention groups and task groups by redefining the concept of
diversity and reframing core group work concepts. Appropriate for
both undergraduate and graduate courses, this book introduces
readers to the foundations of group practice with an emphasis on
social justice. The book presents diversity as a relational concept
that is at the heart of all group interactions. Individual identity
is complex, and in order for all members to be treated equally
their individuality must be accepted and respected. Using this
framework, the book discusses the values and ethics of social work
with groups, explores the stages of group work including planning,
and presents both basic and advanced skills such as conflict
resolution and the use of self. Theories are put into practice in
three chapters of case studies that show in-detail how diversity
can be employed as a strength in multiple settings to achieve the
wide variety of goals groups pursue. Through this new approach,
students and practitioners alike will learn how to harness
diversity to engage and maintain participation in inclusive group
processes.
