This textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to strengths-based approaches in Social Work and Social Care practice, covering the theory and research behind these approaches. With a focus on international research and evidence, it offers a critical understanding of how strengths-based approaches can be successfully applied to improve outcomes for people with lived experience.
