Competency in Generalist Practice

Compentency in Generalist Practice features an original and timely social work practice model that will transform the way generalist and evidence-based practice are taught. Writing with outstanding clarity and sense of purpose, Elizabeth Moore Plionis shows students to use a decision tree that will help them take a conscious, intelligent approach to solving problems they will be faced with as social workers. With both traditional and new theories incorporated into the discussion, linked to technique and set in the context of direct and indirect methods at each step of the decision hierarchy, this book is a concise but powerful tool for learning effective social work method.
