In its new edition, The Practice of Generalist Social Work provides in-depth understanding of the knowledge, skills, values, and affective and cognitive processes needed for social work practice in the present moment. Grounded in a strengths-based perspective, chapters in the textbook discuss practice with individuals, families, groups, communities, and organizations and guide students through all phases of the change process with the aid of case studies, examples, and exercises that highlight and provide connections to real-life practice situations. Theoretical frameworks, important value and ethical considerations, and pivotal communication skills are all included in the text’s comprehensive coverage of different practice settings with clients and communities. The sixth edition is now guided by the 2022 Council on Social Work Education Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS), with connections to renewed objectives and competencies integrated throughout, and is further updated to reflect and focus on new developments within the discipline. These include anti-racism efforts and movements to address entrenched racial inequities; the practice of cultural humility and cultural responsiveness; and attention to community-based implications of the COVID-19 pandemic. Strengthened and now fully up to date, this edition of The Practice of Generalist Social Work provides a sweeping, in-depth, and lively introduction to social work practice for generalist courses, and is supported by a range of fully updated resources for instructors and their students on www.routledgesw.com/.

The fourth edition of The Practice of Generalist Social Work continues to teach students to apply micro, macro, and mezzo social work skills. This new edition strengthens the connection between the three levels of practice and is fully updated to the 2015 EPAS. This edition also contains more illustrations of theory and more context for deciding which type of intervention is a good fit. Most chapters now open with a case study and continually refer back to the case to provide additional connections between theory and real-life practice. Each chapter also incorporates a link to a Grand Challenge of Social Work from the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare, which shows the connection between social work and the most significant societal challenges of today. The Quick Guides within the text offer students guidance for their field experience and practice after graduation. The text also comes with a rich companion website that includes support materials and six unique cases that encourage students to learn by doing.
