Brief, solution-focused intervention embodies some of the more important and distinguishing assumptions of social work practice, most notably the strengths and resilience orientations. This practice model provides a much-needed link between the abstract arena of the classroom and contemporary social work practice. In this article, the author presents the key assumptions of this model. Through the use of a case example, the author also discusses how this model may be incorporated into the generalist social work practice curriculum.
