Following many of the exercises is a set of accompanying handouts (instructional guides, worksheets, checklists, game cards, etc.) that can be copied for distribution. These exercises can be used in practice in the fields of social work or the human services. From the first chapter, called Starters, through Interviewing Skills, Group Dynamics, Community Organization, and Research, the book presents exercises for most of the major areas covered in both social work and human services programs. The final chapter, called Increasing Sensitivity, includes exercises that increase sensitivity to culture, class, race, age, sexuality, disability, death and loss.
