La participación en la intervención grupal con jóvenes y adolescentes en la ciudad de Madrid
En la ciudad de Madrid se desarrolla una gran cantidad de programas de intervención social grupal con adolescentes y jóvenes considerados en riesgo de exclusión social que tienen como objetivo fomentar la participación. Sin embargo, no existe un consenso acerca de la definición, sentido y alcance del término. A su vez, la juventud tiene escasa presencia en la planificación y evaluación de los programas de los que es parte y en las investigaciones de trabajo social. Las características de las intervenciones sociales son el resultado de la conjunción de las representaciones sociales que se tiene de la juventud con las diferentes acepciones de la participación. Estos imaginarios se materializan en prácticas muy diferentes que van desde un enfoque de riesgo basado en el control a otro de empoderamiento, conciencia crítica y transformación social. Esta investigación tiene el objetivo de definir el concepto de participación partiendo de las experiencias de jóvenes y adolescentes. Se busca propiciar la reflexión acerca de la acción social destinada a la juventud desde la perspectiva del enfoque grupal con el objetivo de participación...
Group Work
The new edition of Group Work adds a focus on diversity and the use of self in group work, an area too often neglected in professional training but essential to meeting current competence standards set by the Council on Social Work Education. As in previous editions, students and professors will find thoughtful analyses of complicated value dilemmas and specific techniques for use in a diverse range of settings, including confrontations and situations where humor is appropriate. Complete with more games and exercises, an updated discussion of values and ethics, and an expanded skills section, Group Work also contains excerpts and discussions of case studies that can be applied to students’ own experiences and will serve as a valuable references for years to come.
EBOOK: Attachment Narrative Therapy
What are some of the central connections between narrative, systemic and attachment therapies? How do early emotional experiences in families shape our narratives about ourselves and our families? In what ways do family attachments shape our narrative abilities, such as being able to reflect on and integrate our experiences? This book sets out a framework for practice – Attachment Narrative Therapy – that provides a new approach to working with families, couples and individuals. This is not offered as a prescriptive model but as an aid and guide to practice that draws aspects of narrative and attachment therapy into systemic work. The synthesis of these ideas offers clinicians a new inte...
Systemic Therapy and Attachment Narratives
Professional interest in the clinical applications of attachment theory continues to grow and evolve, and at the same time narrative approaches are also gaining ground. This book explores how attachment-based ideas can be used in clinical practice by offering a practical and sophisticated exposition of clinical approaches. Bringing together three main systems of thought and psychotherapeutic practice - systemic theory, attachment theory and narrative theory - practitioners are shown how to use these ideas in their work through the integrated approach of ‘attachment narrative therapy’. Using clinical examples, the authors provide guidance on how to use attachment narrative therapy in diff...

Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice
For nearly a decade, Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice has been the definitive sourcebook of theoretical foundations and curricular frameworks for social justice teaching practice.

Social Work with Groups
When should someone not be admitted to a group? How can a reluctant child be persuaded to participate in a group? What is the best way to deal with issues of low self-esteem? Part of the enduring appeal of this classic work is its vivid depiction of actual group work and the challenges that arise. Opening with an instructive survey of the roots and development of group social work—from the first YMCA to the establishment of the NASW—Northen and Kurland contribute to the integration of theory and research that forms the basis of group social work practice. Using an ecosystem approach, they set forth a generic framework for practice with diverse groups, establishing a common core of values, knowledge, purposes, and interventions that can be applied to different populations and situations. With clear step-by-step guidance, this book covers the major issues as well as the ethical challenges that working with groups entails. This fully revised and updated edition includes seven new chapters that reflect the most recent developments in group practice.
