Notes
- Abstract:
- The principle of social justice is a pillar of social work that can be traced to the beginning of the profession – a time that coincides with the Progressive Era. Through advocacy practice, social workers have a long history of advancing social justice. Social workers who advocated for social justice have faced oppression from both inside and outside of the profession. Through the course of many decades, both schools and students of social work have become clinically centric, placing less emphasis on macro practice areas. The purpose of this study is to learn of the seminal experiences in the development of social justice advocacy practitioners. Through learning of the characteristics and features of social justice advocates, and specifically the influential experiences that led them to their social justice interests and beliefs, schools of social work will become better informed to target, recruit, and engage the next generation of social justice advocacy practitioners.
