The Future of Community Organization in Social Work
The growth of community organization practice and its future prospects within social work have been shaped by a variety of factors related to profession building. This paper analyzes the development of community organization from a political-economic perspective and proposes ways for community organization to remain a viable force within the social work profession in the future
The Social Work Profession and the Ideoloqy of Professionalization
The phenomenon of professionalization has been an exceptionally powerful force in Western industrialized countries for more than a century. "The professions are as characteristic of the modern world as the crafts were of the ancient," said Stephen R. Graubard in the preface to The Professions in America (1963). Talcott Parsons (1968) declared that "The development and increasing strategic importance of the professions probably constitute the most…
Empowering Public Welfare Workers through Mutual Support
Social workers employed in public agencies are caught in a number of disempowering organizational binds concerning the provision of services to clients in times of fiscal restraint. The authors explore the nature of these binds and suggest a mutual support group as a step toward empowerment
Professionalization and Vollintarism in Social Welfare
Non-Governmental Emergency Food Services
This paper presents the findings of an exploratory study of voluntarily organized emergency food centers in Baltimore. These agencies comprise the heart of a tertiary welfare system that provides basic survival supplies without a means test to the needy who cannot obtain relief from traditional public or private sources. Forty-one emergency food services were identified in Baltimore and the heads of 37 of these agencies were interviewed in depth.…
A Pluralistic Planning Model for United Way Organizations
Public and voluntary sector social planning has favored "abstract-rational" planning processes for allocating scarce resources to needy populations, despite a growing body of evidence that the adoption of new priorities is an innately political process. This paper examines priority planning in the voluntary sector and explicates a pluralistic model of planning as a viable alternative for United Way organizations. The central features of the model…
The Adaptability of Voluntary Organizations
This paper will report the findings of an empirical study of 218 large, urban based United Way organizations (United Funds, United Community Services, Community Chests, and Community Councils) undertaken in 1972. The immediate aim of the study was to explore and identify those environmental conditions associated with United Way responsiveness to the emerging needs of poor and minority citizens and their indigenous service and action organizations…
The Social Welfare Workers Movement
During the upheavals of the 1960's many human service professions and academic disciplines (e.g. psychology, sociology, law, medicine, etc.) underwent severe criticisms of their goals and methodologies, generated both from within and without. In social work one such critique came from the Social Welfare Workers Movement (SWWM), born out of protest-oriented activities at the National Conference on Social Welfare in new York City, 1969. Although SW…
