This book examines the intersection of legal and social work in India and beyond. It explores the complex reality of laws related to socially disadvantaged groups and how social workers and practitioners navigate it at the ground level.

This volume comprehensively analyses how social workers implement strategies and processes effectively through legal frameworks for their clientele. With a blend of theory and hands-on advice, it will enable students to gain a deeper and critical understanding of their roles in making a positive impact in the lives of individuals and communities through legal support. It shifts focus from normative legal concepts and systems to action-oriented roles in the contexts of individuals, families, communities, and organizations. From circumnavigating legal frameworks to implementing effective social work processes and strategies, this book serves as an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to make a positive impact in terms of empowering their community.

This book will be useful to students, researchers, educators, and practitioners of social work, sociology, human rights, public policy, and administration. It will also be an invaluable resource for professionals, including those working for the government or NGOs.
