Overview
The growing number of people over the age of 65 in the United States has increased the demand for social workers who are trained to work with the elderly - a demand that's in danger of not being met. Fostering Social Work Gerontology Competence presents innovative techniques and strategies to help educators infuse aging content into their graduate and undergraduate curriculums in an effort to produce a new generation of social work practitioners who are up to the task of working with an older population.
