''I would suggest linking the "History of Social Work" wikipedia page, so as to integrate this article more into the Wikipedia database.''--[[User:Ubuntu713|Ubuntu713]] ([[User talk:Ubuntu713|talk]]) 23:58, 9 March 2014 (UTC)▼

Community practice in social work is linked with the historical roots of the professions beginning in the United States. More specifically, the history of community-based social work has evolved from the charity organization society (COS), and the settlement house movements. [[1]] However, during the earlier half of the 20th century, much of this work focused on institutionalization. Not until the 1960s did the shift from institutions to communities exacerbate the emphasis on community-based program design. This is known as the era of deinstitutionalization[2].
Line 30 ⟶ 28:
Blacks have always cared for the sick at home, yet it was never laveled 'home care.' Blacks have been dying at home and receiving care in the proces, yet it was never called 'hospice care.' Blacks have relieved each other from the caring and curing processes, yet it was never seen as 'respite care.' Blacks have cared for each other in their homes, in their neighborhoods, and throughout their communities, yet it was never referred to as 'volunteerism.'[3]
