dc.description | As theHandbook of Forensic Mental Health With Victims and Offenders clearly demonstrates, social workers are uniquely positioned for forensic tasks. Social work’s explicit and deliberate endorsement of a generalist perspective, which includes simultaneous focus on individuals’ private troubles and the environmental circumstances and public policies that surround them, is particularly well suited to forensic practice. Social workers in court, correctional, child welfare, mental health, addictions treatment, and domestic violence settings must attend to both complex clinical issues and daunting organizational, community, and policy dynamics that affect offenders, clients, and victims. Competent forensic practitioners must understand the ways in which these diverse and wide-ranging phenomena influence mental illness, criminal conduct, child and elder abuse and neglect, addictions, and domestic violence; in addition, they must grasp the ways in which these same phenomena can help people address the troubling issues in their lives and lead to the design, funding, and implementation of meaningful services, programs, and policies.
