Multicultural Perspectives In Social Work Practice with Families, 3rd Edition (Springer Series on Social Work)

Encompassing the most current issues faced by multicultural families across the lifespan and the social workers who serve them, this popular textbook contains ten new chapters and provides content that has been significantly expanded throughout. These new and reconceived chapters offer evidence-based models for assessment and treatment, updated case studies, and statistical data. New chapters focus on practice with ethnically-diverse, Asian-American, Native American, Hispanic, and Arab families; adolescents; families with risk of suicide; families dealing with substance abuse or health issues; and immigrants facing legal issues.
