Social Work

Research guide for Social Work

Welcome!

This subject guide supports the research needs of students and faculty in the Department of Social Work at Salve Regina University.
The Department of Social Work, as described on the University's website, "builds on the principles of social justice to provide a generalist education that prepares students for work with individuals, families, groups, communities, and organizations.
Students learn the values, skills, and knowledge needed to intervene effectively on the individual, community, and policy levels to facilitate systemic change."
Use the menu to the left to locate books, articles, videos, and suggested web resources for your research assignments. Need more targeted support? Make an appointment with your library liaison, Lisa Richter.
