Environmental Modification: Teaching Social Coping Skills.

Hashimi, Joan Kay

Social Work, v26 n4 p323-26 Jul 1981

Describes environmental modification, social work's response to the practical needs of clients, which emphasizes "doing for" clients and thus may encourage their dependence on the practitioner. Suggests that helping clients to develop their own skills to modify their environment can promote independence while meeting clients' tangible needs. (Author)
