Creating aging-enriched social work education:a process of curricular and organizational change

Creating aging-enriched social work education:a process of curricular and organizational change

Nancy Hooyman et al. J Gerontol Soc Work. 2006.

Abstract

The CSWE Geriatric Enrichment in Social Work Education Project, funded by the John A. Hartford foundation, aimed to change curricula and organizational structure in 67 GeroRich projects so that all students would graduate with foundation knowledge and skills to work effectively with older adults and their families. The emphasis was on change processes to infuse and sustain gerontological competencies and curricular resources in foundation courses. This article presents lessons learned and strategies for engaging faculty, practitioners and students in the curriculum and organizational change process.
