Generalist Social Work Practice with Groups

First Edition

 

By:  Stephen J. Yanca and Louise C. Johnson

 

Examining all aspects of group work that generalist social workers are likely to encounter, Generalist Social Work Practice with Groups uses a practical and applied approach to show how to effectively form and facilitate groups. It is the third in a series of generalist texts by Stephen Yanca and Louise Johnson that uses the authors’ generalist model with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities.

 

Generalist Social Work Practice with Groups is organized in three parts

• Part II applies the Johnson/Yanca model for generalist group work practice to the types of groups that generalist social workers are most likely to encounter.
• Part III applies the authors’ model to working with organizations and communities and with various types of task groups.
