From the Front Lines: Student Cases in Social Work Ethics FROM THE PUBLISHER
HIGHLIGHTS Uses the NASW Code of Ethics as a framework for each case. Develops a simple, easy to use process for making ethical decisions. Helps students develop confidence in their ability to make ethical decisions within the context of practice. Discusses ethical issues at all levels of practice, from individual to communities.
“The idea of illustrating the Code of Ethics with the cases and analysis of how a decision is reached is excellent. The content is very interesting and will be helpful to students.” Professor Jean Granger, California State University, Long Beach
“I think this is an excellent text. Students often begin my class believing they understand what an ethical dilemma is when in fact they have just been exposed to the code of ethics. This book helps them analyze ethical dilemmas and think through ways to resolve them.” Valerie Chang, Indiana University
