Product Description
by Janice Helena Hawkins Phd (Author)
Social workers are human equipped with all the assumptions and prejudices of any person living in a society. Each of us believes on a primal level that our view of the world is right, is true, is real, especially, when it is reinforced by our education, our peers and rooted in our unconscious minds. In our role as authorities, we create case plans and projections for our clients that are in their best interests. But despite political and social reform, America as a land is filled with attitudes, assumptions that make it virtually impossible to believe that the nation is serious about its promise to care for its disenfranchised. We need to talk.
