520 _aDesigned for students who want to move beyond the theoretical discussion of community and become effective agents of change, Promoting community change, 6th edition addresses the real-world issues facing professionals in social work, human services, and community health. By emphasizing the role a strengthened community can play in preventing and solving the problems commonly experienced by individuals and families, the author gives students the tools they need to improve the lives of individual clients as well as entire communities. Students learn to identify the issues related to change so that they can bring clients, families, and other community members together to build a healthier community for themselves, their families, and their neighbors. Rather than offering a passive "service" model, the author presents a development model that empowers communities to transform their own conditions.
