Social Work Macro Practice recognizes that all social workers must be able to engage, assess and intervene with individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities. The unique macro practice model prepares you to undertake macro-level interventions in an informed, analytical manner and achieve positive results.

The 7th Edition includes many new references and practice-oriented examples to keep pace with changes in the field. In-depth content on justice frames macro practice within current social and political landscapes. New material on environmental, racial, gender and ecological justice highlights how you can thrive as a social worker and affect change. More field-based vignettes, up-to-date technology coverage and an enhanced planned change model better prepare you for your own social work practice.
