Advances in Social Work is a peer-reviewed journal committed to enhancing the linkage among social work practice, research, and education. Accordingly, the journal addresses current issues, challenges, and responses facing social work practice and education globally. The journal invites discussion and development of innovations in social work practice and their implications for social work research and education. Advances in Social Work seeks to publish empirical, conceptual, and theoretical articles that make substantial contributions to the field in all areas of social work including clinical practice, community organization, social administration, social policy, planning, and program evaluation.
Advances in Social Work introduces Dr. Carol Hostetter as the new Editor as Dr. Margaret Adamek undertakes a new administrative role at the Indiana University School of Social Work. Dr. Hostetter effectively served as a Guest Editor for a double-issue of AISW and contributed as a reviewer for over a decade. Dr. Adamek’s tenure as Editor, since 2015, has enhanced the journal as well as her career and teaching in the realm of scholarly writing and publishing. AISW will continue to prosper under Dr. Hostetter's guidance. The camaraderie experienced with the AISW team, encompassing authors, reviewers, board members, and guest editors, and, of course, the staff including Valerie Decker, Managing Editor, Michael Hernandez, editorial assistant, Dr. Jieru Bai, statistical consultant, and Ted Polley, OJS Support, is greatly appreciated. We're excited to share the Spring 2023 issue of Advances in Social Work. Take a look at 12 papers written by 44 authors from the U.S. and Finland. In this collection, you'll find ten studies based on real experiences and two advocacy pieces. Together, they bring new viewpoints and discoveries about growing areas in social work practice, policy, and education! We remain committed to high-quality open access publishing widely available to academics and practitioners. Heartfelt best wishes are extended to the AISW Team as they venture forward.
Announcement: Annoucing Fall 2022 Issue of AISW
In the Fall 2022 issue of Advances in Social Work, we are pleased to present 17 full-length papers (11 empirical, 6 conceptual) written by 52 authors representing all different regions of the country and one paper hailing from Ethiopia. The papers in this issue are organized into five areas of contribution: challenges to national social work organizations, technological innovations in social work, curriculum innovations, COVID-related impacts, and diverse client populations. Each paper is introduced briefly, followed by our annual recognition of AISW reviewers.
Announcement: NEW Special Issue-Re-envisioning Social Work (Vol 22, Issue 2)
We are pleased to announce are new special issue on re-envisioning social work edited by Goutham M. Menon, Jacqueline Mondros, Nancy J. Smyth, Martell Teasley, and Carol Hostetter. Please see this collection of 30 articles written by 106 authors from 48 universities and organizations. The year 2023 marks professional social work’s quasquicentennial: the 125th anniversary of our profession since the first social work classes were offered in the summer of 1898 at Columbia University. The profession has grown in its reach across many human service sectors over all these years creating opportunities for those who want to serve their communities in myriad and impactful ways. As we observe disruptions in the higher education sector, with profound implications to the mission of the social work profession, we are also witnessing many cross-sector opportunities for the future of the social work profession. Given our changing environment, the time is right for us to re-envision social work education and practice in ways that center our professions’ commitment to social justice and the well-being of individuals, families, and communities. In our efforts to meet the needs of the people and communities we serve, we have seen several innovative and impactful expansions into areas that have augmented our original “scope of practice.” Some have occurred to meet the needs of the time; others have morphed due to market conditions for jobs that have been encroached on by other professions/disciplines. And as we see more complex and vexing societal issues in our current environment, it is time for us to collectively discern our purpose, adjust our mindset, and be prepared to meet future challenges and opportunities. This special issue on “re-envisioning social work” provides a space for thought leaders to showcase meaningful and purpose-filled advances for the profession.
Announcement: Announcing Spring 2022 Issue of AISW
In this Spring 2022 issue of Advances in Social Work, we are pleased to present 14 papers written by 40 authors from different regions of the U.S. The articles in this issue include a selection of empirical studies (n=6) and conceptual pieces (n=8). While the 14 articles cover a wide range of topics, two underlying themes include supporting different aspects of diversity in practice and in social work education and discovering the virtues of virtual practice.
