Community Social Work: A Theoretical Perspective
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
The concept „community social work‟ grew up in the 1970s and 1980s in Britain and gained common currency following the publication of the Barclay Report in 1982. Even though there is uncertainty in using terms to denote the community work approaches to social work practice, the term „community social work‟ is used by several authors. This article attempted to explore the meaning of the concept „community social work‟ in order to observe the aptness of the term to narrate the practice of professional social work with communities. It depicts a community social work perspective in terms of professional social work practice with communities.
