Social work is a “helping” profession; the professionals in this field assess their clients and determine their strengths and needs, soliciting their ideas about what they want to accomplish. The social worker’s “client” can also be a community, such as several at-risk youth needing an outlet for their energy and creativity. Here, the social worker assists them as they decide how to help themselves. Social workers help their clients access needed services; they can also help access “hard” services such as a food bank. An Introduction to Applying Social Work Theories and Methods is a practical guide for social work students to use both in the classroom and as a reference guide while on placement. Equally, this book is a useful reference for social work practitioners.
