"Feminist Perspectives on Social Work Practice is a contemporary look at the issues
across a wide spectrum, beyond just equal pay for equal work and reproductive rights,
with which women struggle on a daily basis. The Trump administration's call to roll
back the progress that women have made over the decades in terms of social welfare
benefits, reproductive rights, and employment recognition, alongside the continuing
victimization of women who have survived sexual violence, are just a few examples
demonstrating why social workers and other human service professionals need to continue
to advocate and care for women in particular ways. This book aims to continue keeping
the lives of women and the issues that affect and matter most to them at the forefront
of the discussions about society and social services. The text will help readers to
gain an understanding of populations of women that they might/will work with in the
field of human services. Using demographics, case studies, and best practice/evidence-based
programs, the authors collectively provide students and practitioners with a comprehensive
knowledge of women from a feminist perspective." ; "This book takes a contemporary
look at the issues that affect women most from a feminist perspective. Going beyond
the equal pay for equal work issue, we write about mental health, substance abuse,
disabilities, parenting, relationships, criminal justice, and aging all from a holistic
and intersectional perspective"
