| School Social Work Worldwide opens the boundaries of
international school social work as never before. Sequentially arranged chapters allow
practitioners, educators, and students to follow the expansion of school social work
practice around the world. Leaders in the field from 12 countries provide eye-opening
perspectives and interventions that are impressive in their range and application.
Further, the book looks ahead to policy and practice issues for the future direction of
the profession. School Social Work Worldwide makes a compelling statement about
contemporary school social work—the critical need for the international professional
community to learn from one another so that all of our children can reach their full
potential through education. It exemplifies the value of collaboration in developing the
literature of the profession and raises issues for social work educators about including
international themes in social work education.
