Weekly Social Work Links - Issue 92

17th September

Introduction

Wishing all a fruitful month and thanks for the feedback/comments over the last week. I’ve unusually included a direct link to a DSW thesis under ‘research’ where usually I share journal articles because I came across this one and it seemed useful and relevant. If you prefer journal articles in general though, let me know.

Please do feel free to share around with anyone who might be interested! We are coming up to the 100th edition now and I am so grateful to those of you who have shown an interest.
