Summary Living in poverty, especially for long periods of time, puts families at higher risk of challenges with stable housing, health issues and access to health care, mental health and substance abuse issues as well as domestic violence issues. Social workers who work with people living in poverty must be prepared to assist with a multitude of needs and challenges. In "Social Work and Poverty", Cossy Hough, LCSW, reviews the definition of poverty, social work perspectives on poverty, demographics, and the practice of working with clients living in poverty. She follows her presentation with a role play demonstration of an intake and assessment of a young male client who has just entered a homeless shelter.
