Description
Thinking about gender can enrich the work of all groupwork practitioners and make a real difference in people's lives. This book brings together the best of groupwork knowledge, skills and values from both the UK and USA. It summarises the history of gender-based groups for women and men, outlining exciting examples of groups in different contexts, including those working with older women, homeless individuals, caregivers, lesbian and gay youth, and those affected by domestic violence. The book demonstrates that groupwork is alive and well, providing new ideas and models to help move practice forward. A valuable addition to the groupwork literature, Gender and Groupwork offers practical insights and inspiration for practitioners looking to enhance their work with diverse groups.
