Theoretical Approaches to Disability Content in Social Work Education.
Gilson, Stephen French; DePoy, Elizabeth
Journal of Social Work Education, v38 n1 p153-65 Win 2002
Analyzes disability theory and content in the social work curriculum and advances a theoretically expansive approach to disability that is consistent with social work's commitment to diversity and the elimination of oppression. Suggests shifting disability content from an emphasis on individual deficiency toward addressing disability as the interaction of a medical condition or diverse conditions with disabling environments.
