Self-Help Groups and the Family Service Agency

In: Families in society: the journal of contemporary human services, Band 69, Heft 2, S. 74-80

Abstract

With the recent upsurge in self-help groups, social workers and family service agencies must develop new roles and models in order to interact with these groups. The authors describe a consultation model, which includes the study-diagnosis role, and roles that link the group with the agency and community.
