Social Casework Methodology: A Skills Handbook for the Caribbean Human Services Worker[electronic resource] /by Emmanuel Janagan Johnson, Camille L. Huggins. - 1st ed. 2019. - XXI, 110 p. 14 illus., 11 illus. in color.online resource. - SpringerBriefs in Social Work,2195-3104. - SpringerBriefs in Social Work,.

Chapter 1- The unique environment of the Caribbean -- Chapter 2- Social Problems in the Caribbean -- Chapter 3- History of Casework method -- Chapter 4 Theoretical frameworks for the Casework method -- Chapter 5 Theoretical frameworks needed in the Caribbean -- Chapter 6 Components of Casework method -- Chapter 7 The helping process -- Chapter 8 Assessment and Intervention .

This brief is a practical reference contextualizing social casework methodology in a specifically Caribbean cultural and historical context. It emerged from the experiences of human services workers and educators working in the Caribbean. The concepts of social welfare policy and programs are relatively new to the Caribbean as historically Christian-based organizations and local communities took the responsibility of caring for those in need. As social problems grew more complicated and threatened the security of the nation (e.g., gang violence), it became clear that governments of these small island states needed to provide a systematic approach in dealing with these social problems to help their citizens have a better quality of life. Social Casework Methodology: A Skills Handbook for the Caribbean Human Services Worker outlines a systematic approach that human services workers will find useful while working with clients in the Caribbean. It also is an easy-to-use text that defines social casework methodology, components of the methods, case histories, and exercises for social work students interested in working in the human services sector in the Caribbean.
