Description
This book is an introduction to the emerging field known as community counselling and is, accordingly, intended to provide an integrated, coherent description of the field. Because of the growth of community counselling training programmes, the field has reached a point where the domain of knowledge warrants a comprehensive text that focuses on the principles and practice of community counselling. The authors begin by looking at the nature of community counselling its history, settings, and legal and ethical issues. They go on to examine the clientele served by community counselling.
