Product Overview
Designed to enhance social work's mission as a reform-oriented profession, this Third Edition of Jansson's groundbreaking work goes beyond other books' approaches to take students to a new level of involvement. Jansson provides a hands-on framework for helping social workers develop specific skills they can use to actually change policy in their professional careers. The Third Edition builds on the doing policy practice framework of the previous edition (presented in Chapter 3) by providing a new focus on policy advocacy--policy practice geared toward helping oppressed, stigmatized, or powerless out-groups.
