About this title

Synopsis

This practical, "how-to" workbook is designed to prepare students to walk away from the classroom into a social service setting and be able to function competently in the most basic skills, decisions, and discussions. Nancy Summers presents a step-by-step case management procedure that takes students from intake to termination by providing clear directions for each step in the process, practical "how to" tips, and using practice scenarios taken from real case management situations. The workbook includes actual agency forms providing students with the opportunity to practice using forms similar to those they will use in agencies.
