Abstract

Group work stems from settings that can be generally character ized as settlement houses, recreation centers and other community located agencies dedicated to group services. Constructive use of leisure time, recreation, education, socialization and the resolution of interpersonal and community problems are but a few of the varying services which have been the traditional focus for group work services. The group worker is, in these kinds of settings, with the client in the client's environment, the client's community.
