Inhaltsangabe

Generalist Social Work Practice: A Worktext provides readers with the theoretical and practical knowledge needed for entry levels of practice in social work. Authors Charles H. Zastrow and Sarah Hessenauer uniquely combine the key components of existing practice texts, both traditional and contemporary, into one volume and keep it as jargon-free as possible to enhance student comprehension.

The content spans across sixteen chapters, exploring key topics such as the various roles and activities of social workers, values and ethics in social work, self-care, assessment, and interventions with various groups and communities. The skill-building exercises presented in each chapter-a highlight of the pedagogical features-are designed to aid students in applying concepts to real-world scenarios.

Key updates to the thirteenth edition include:

• The latest Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) and National Association of Social Workers' (NASW) Code of Ethics
• An enhanced focus on anti-oppressive social work.
• New chapters on trauma and trauma-informed care and crisis intervention.

This text is ideal for practice courses in social work at the undergraduate level and also serves as a valuable reference for social work practitioners.
