“In Social Work Matters: The Power of Linking Policy and Practice, Elizabeth F. Hoffler and Elizabeth J. Clark bring home the truth embodied in that title for practitioners and researchers in a comprehensive range of settings. At heart, the book argues that social work matters because the profession is absolutely necessary to the healthy functioning of society.”
I am proud to have a chapter on Financial Social Work included in this new NASW Press book which was just released in honor of National Social Work Month
Social workers have the education, training, experience and passion to help people change in all areas of their lives. I created Financial Social Work to provide on-going financial, motivational and supportive tools and skills for use by our profession in addressing clients’ many and varied financial issues; to facilitate clients’ choosing to begin the very individual, personal and emotional journey to sustainable, long-term financial behavioral change.
