Dear Reader

  This issue of The New Social Worker marks another

  historical event in the life of the magazine, as this is

  our first electronic-only issue. If you are reading

  this, you have probably already found the magazine

  online at our Web site at http://www.socialworker.

  com in PDF format , or maybe a friend or colleague

  passed it along to you. You may read the magazine

  completely on your computer’s monitor, or you can

  print it out and read it on paper—it’s your choice. By

  publishing in PDF format, and making The New Social

  Worker available FREE of charge, we can reach more of the people who can benefit from it, and that includes you!
