Publisher's Synopsis

Macro-social work practitioners must combine research from different fields with professional judgment to develop an evidence-informed approach to positive community and agency change. Research is becoming more sophisticated and central in agency and community-based social work. Using Evidence to Inform Practice for Community and Organizational Change stands as an excellent resource for practitioners and students alike. The contributors present each stage of the evidence-informed practice model in a straight-forward manner, using guided criticism of previous research to direct readers towards effective research and implementation techniques.
