Description

Foundations of Social Work Practice with Lesbian and Gay Persons offers a knowledge base of practice that will better prepare students and practitioners to work competently and effectively with lesbians and gay men. Written by scholars and practitioners in the social work profession, this essential guide teaches you how to develop approaches that are sensitive to issues of sexual orientation, as well as how to work with this population in the contexts of practice with individuals, couples, families, groups, communities, and organizations. The strategies and case studies found in Foundations of Social Work Practice with Lesbian and Gay Persons will provide you with critical information that will help you deal with homophobia and heterocentrism and enact a professional commitment to pursuing economic and social equality for diverse and at-risk client populations.
