Participatory Approach in the Work of a Social Worker with Homeless People

The research study is focused on the participatory approach in the work of a social worker with homeless people. The participatory approach emphasizes the involvement of service users in decision-making processes that directly affect them within the service, organization or within society as a whole. This approach is based on the concepts of recovery and empowerment and on the partnership concept of cooperation between the social worker and the service user. The research part deals with the application of this approach in practice, specifically in an organization that works with homeless people.
