Download or read book From Charity to Social Work written by Elizabeth N. Agnew and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary E. Richmond (1861-1928) was a contemporary of Jane Addams and an influential leader in the American charity organization movement. In this biography--the first in-depth study of Richmond's life and work--Elizabeth N. Agnew examines the contributions of this important, if hitherto under-valued, woman to the field of charity and to its development into professional social work. Orphaned at a young age and largely self-educated, Richmond initially entered charity work as a means of self-support, but came to play a vital role in transforming philanthropy--previously seen as a voluntary expression of individual altruism--into a valid, organized profession. Her career took her from charity organization leadership in Baltimore and Philadelphia to an executive position with the prestigious Russell Sage Foundation in New York City. Richmond's progressive civic philosophy of social work was largely informed by the social gospel movement. She strove to find practical applications of the teachings of Christianity in response to the social problems that accompanied rapid industrialization, urbanization, and poverty. At the same time, her tireless efforts and personal example as a woman created an appealing, if ambiguous, path for other professional women. A century later her legacy continues to echo in social work and welfare reform.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Social Worker and Modern Charity Dear Stephen, It is the least that we can do to dedicate this book to you, if only for the admirable way you have worked with one of us in the cause of charity at Bradford. There is no problem more difficult than deciding the proper sphere of the social worker. There are so many people who are anxious and willing to undertake the very highest of effort in the cause of charity, but in our day at least every new movement is believed to be a step of progress. This, of course, is not true. We could wish it were so, for in writing this little book we have almost come to believe that the difficulties surrounding the coordination of all social effort are almost as involved as the social problem itself. This book is an honest attempt to guide the social worker through the labyrinth of wasted effort, and at the back of it all there remains Kirkman Gray's definition of the social worker as the "perfect agitator."
