Book
"Drawing out the implications for policy and practice from the latest research in housing and social work, this volume illustrates the lack of communication between practitioners that is hindering service provision, and provides suggestions for improving current practice. The contributors examine the relationship of such factors as youth, gender, race, education, poverty, health, social exclusion and housing developments to the provision of housing for those in need. Social Work and Housing argues that social workers must look beyond their immediate attempts to find resources to meet special needs, and connect the problems of service users to broader structural issues such as unemployment. The book also supports greater collaboration with housing providers and explores how this can be achieved."--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
