Social Work for the Poor

With the foregoing survey of how the social work function is discharged in the fields in which the majority of social workers are engaged, we have perhaps answered the questions of this investigation sufficiently to warrant a recapitulation and the drawing of some conclusions. The organizations that have been described are not the only ones, it should be pointed out, in which or through which social work activities are carried on. The social work aspects of travelers’ aid society services, for instance, have not been discussed, or those of organizations giving assistance to immigrants and emigrants.
