The Just Practice Framework In Action

"The Just Practice Framework in Action: Contemporary Case Studies presents a collection of essays illustrating the application of the Just Practice framework in diverse contexts of social work practice. It is designed to serve as a companion reader to Just Practice: A Social Justice Approach to Social Work (Finn, 2020) and as a stand-alone text. The Just Practice framework provides a model for the integration of social justice into social work from the most intimate spaces of individual, clinical practice to macro-level policy analysis, advocacy, and community building. The contributors to this volume show how they have brought the Just Practice framework to bear to inform and transform their practice as clinicians, researchers, advocates, organizers, educators, and program directors. Their stories bring the framework to life, illustrating its potential for transformative social work practice. Their accounts offer grounded insights into challenges and possibilities of social justice-oriented social work that both strengthen and inform the Just Practice framework"--
