The Fourth Edition of this innovative text continues to emphasize a generalist empowerment oriented approach, along with practice strategies and techniques for working toward individual client and social change. Generalist Social Work Practice updates the contemporary themes of social work practice into an integrated practice process including: the generalist approach featuring universal practice processes with all levels of human systems; a foundational understanding of human behavior drawn from the ecosystems perspective; consistent emphasis on client strengths and their use in the change process; sensitivity to issues of human diversity and ways to increase cultural competence in practice; the use of processes which empower clients to their own solutions and the resources of their environments. New resources extend the research base, add breadth and depth, and position this book as a defining work for articulating an empowerment-based method of social work practice.
