About this book

This book draws together writers from various backgrounds to discuss issues that affect those working in rural social work settings, onthemes ranging from current issues that are common to rural localities (including those arising from the Covid-19 pandemic) to future challenges.Common themes that run through all the chapters and hold them together include community and place, stigma and alienation, inequality and social justice, and the environment. Several of the chapters include a strong user voice and challenge cis-heteronormative and other stereotypes of rural life by celebrating diversity in these communities.

The book will therefore be invaluable torural practitioners, students studying to work in rural settings and their educators, as well as rural sociologists and policy makers.
