Book Description

September 27, 2000 0534348610 978-0534348618 1
Advocacy is needed now more than ever. Opportunities to engage in advocacy have increased due to changes at the federal level which are relegating more and more human service funding and decision-making to the state and local level. The purpose of this text is to educate students and professionals so that they have a deeper understanding of advocacy practice in order to fully serve clients.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I do applaud the author's goal of bringing 'together a disparate literature of advocacy and to articulate a comprehensive approach.' Its particular value is that it puts theory and practice about advocacy in one text. In other words, the text is appropriate for students…I…love the overall writing style; it's personal and easy to read…"

4.0 out of 5 stars Educating graduate students in clinical and counseling psychology to do more than psychotherapy..., September 17, 2007
This review is from: Advocacy in the Human Services (Paperback)
I am using this text with my first year doctoral students in clinical psychology, specifically with the students completing their community service practicum...this text teaches students about coalition building and other methods of advocacy. I like how the author discusses various motivations for advocacy and how advocacy skills are useful and necessary in multiple community contexts.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Advocacy in the Human Services (Paperback)
The book is a great learning tool, well written and easy to understand. I'll be hesitant about buying used again. There was nothing in the description about all of the highlighting and underlining in the copy I received. Very distracting.

Excellent customer service, fast shipping, you get what you paid for and the seller writes you "Thank You" notes. I would definitely buy from this person again. You will not be disappointed!
