The Scope of Social Work Practice

Abstract

The scope of social work practice continues to increase as old and new bio-psycho-socio-economic and political needs require consideration. The growth of social work knowledge, skills, and technologies are driven by both internal and external demands that have dramatically expanded practice approaches, settings and roles of the profession. The purpose of this entry is to provide a descriptive overview of the scope of social work practice with consideration of the changing environment and historical foot prints that have helped lead the way.
