Group Work in a Residential Treatment Center: The Use of Information Received From the Counsellors, Group Mothers, Teachers, and Children by the Group Worker to Predetermine the Popularity Ranks That the Children Will Have in Their Treatment Group at the Astor Home, Rhinebeck, New York, 1963–1964
Abstract
It seems strange that social group work was not introduced earlier into the institutional field. It can only be explained historically by the neglect with which social work as a whole treated institutions. When the basic purpose of institutional life was established as treatment, it became clear that social group work was especially capable of helping with the whole group-living process.
