Peacock Publishers, Inc.(University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work, 2008) Clark, Trenette T.The term strengths perspective seems to now be as popular in the social work field as solution-focused once was in the profession.

In addition, although a focus on clients’ strengths is a value of the profession, Saleeby adds that the strengths perspective is “a dramatic departure from conventional social work practice (p.3).” Therefore, social work texts that clearly and extensively discuss the use of practice models that emerge from the strengths perspective are warranted.Item Perspectives on Social Work Volume 6 (Spring 2008)(University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work, 2008) Almeida, Fabio A.; Smith, Jennifer; Easton, Scott D.; Newell, Jason M.; Clark, Trenette T.; Chanmugam, Amy; Small, EusebiusThis is the full-text volume of Perspectives on Social Work, vol. 6 (Summer 2008).
