Rural Social Work: Exploring the Impact of Context, Community, and the COVID-19 Pandemic offers an in-depth examination of social work practices within rural communities with emphasis on knowledge, values, and skills critical for engaging with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities in these areas. Featuring contributed chapters written by experts in the discipline, the book presents a focused exploration of the unique needs and dynamics of rural environments, especially considering the COVID-19 pandemic and its vast impact on rural areas.

Structured to offer both historical context and current perspectives, the book navigates the multifaceted nature of rural social work. It provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of practices based on geographic distinctions (rural, urban, suburban, and international), drug misuse challenges, health care limitations, education disparities, trafficking, crime trends, and considerations for minority and immigrant populations. Essential anti-racist, diversity, equity, and inclusion (ADEI) practices are also incorporated. It provides scholarly resources within each chapter to facilitate discourse and deepen insights into the lived experiences and practical engagements with rural populations.

Rural Social Work features content aligned with current CSWE competencies and well prepares students for effective service learning, internships, and future professional social work practice in rural settings.
