Linking Personal, Organizational, and Community Change.
The only book that links psychological wellness with organizational and community health.
Isaac and Ora Prilleltensky have spent many years studying wellness and well-being from a community perspective, and have practiced in a variety of settings where wellness is emphasized. 'Promoting Well-Being' builds on their knowledge base to connect treatment with prevention, counseling with advocacy, and personal change with community change and social justice. This resource is unique in showing how these areas can work in unison to enhance the well-being of individuals and the community alike.
Addressing challenges such as disability, injustice, arrogance, and complacency, and using visual tools, including charts and diagrams, case studies, innovative exercises, and engaging prose, the authors provide readers with important insight into how these domains interact as well as strategies for helping clients harness the benefits of these interactions. 'Promoting Well-Being' is an essential tool for psychologists, counselors, social workers, human service professionals, public health professionals, and students in these fields.
