Abstract

The past 15 years has seen a marked increase in the number of lone fathers in the US and in the interest shown this population by social science researchers. Social workers in both the US and Great Britain are increasingly faced with meeting the needs of these fathers and their children. This article reviews the current US knowledge base and offers suggestions for social work practice.
