Although it's a neglected area of social work practice, most social workers spend a great deal of time in various meetings and many have leadership responsibilities in task groups. Social work practitioners want practical suggestions about how to proceed when facilitating treatment and task groups during each stage of their development.
Written from the generalist perspective, this book includes the necessary content for treatment and task groups. This revision also reflects the current requirements of the CSWE and includes information on ethical guidelines.
