Building on Women's Strengths

This groundbreaking book explores the ways a woman-centered worldview can transform social policy, social services, and direct practice. Updated to honor the memory of Liane V. Davis, who died in 1995, this new edition of Building on Women's Strengths offers updated information and new chapters on women who have been incarcerated, women on welfare who experience violence, and lesbian and bisexual women. It discusses the issues of women's lives, including family violence, welfare reform, mental health, child welfare, aging, racism, and being silenced.
