  • Teaching Note—Handmaidens to Environmentalists? Claiming Social Work’s Expertise in Environmental Justice

    Nishesh Chalise, Christina L Erickson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Work Education2022

    Social work has clear expertise in efforts to secure economic and social justice. The addition of environmental justice is an opportunity to extend these same skills into a new justice realm. Social workers not only need to learn about environmental issues but also claim their niche in the environmental crisis and ensure that poor and marginalized people are not left out of solutions to environmental problems. In this teaching note, we discuss th…

  • Urban Heat Islands and Social Work

    Open AccessBilly Hamilton, Christina L EricksonARTICLEAdvances in Social Work2012

    The urban heat island (UHI), formed by surface modification of soil and vegetation, increases minimum nighttime temperatures within cities and causes heat-stress among dwellers. Children, elders and low-income persons are disproportionately burdened by the UHI. These populations often lack the necessary biological, economic and social resources to cope with or prevent heat stress. Because UHI's are expected to increase with climate change, more s…

  • Sustaining and Strengthening a Macro Identity

    Katharine M Hill, Katharine Hill et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Practice2010Citada por: 20Referências: 17

    Macro practice focuses on community-level interventions, such as management, organizing, research, and policy advocacy. Despite social work’s deep roots in this type of work, macro practice and macro practitioners often practice without support or connections with other macro practitioners, and are underrepresented in the profession. In 2006, a group of social workers, including academics and practitioners, formed the Association of Macro Practic…
