After analyzing the different types of homophobia (individual, institutional, and internalized) and how these are manifested in real life situations, Tully addresses the special needs and issues particular to three age groups: gay and lesbian youth, adults, and older clients. The author offers practical applications for the social worker and client at the micro-, mezzo-, and macro-levels, from helping a teenage client to discover a personal sexual orientation (micro), to organizing a social event for lesbians and gays (mezzo), to building a community coalition (macro). Eye-opening case studies are provided for each age group and cover everything from defining problems, identifying the underlying issues causing them, understanding the role of homophobia, and the application of the empowerment perspective. 410 0$aEmpowering the powerless. 517 3 $aLesbians, gays, and the empowerment perspective 606 $aSocial work with gay people 606 $aSocial work with lesbians 606 $aGay people$xSocial conditions 606 $aHomosexuality 606 $aHomophobia 615 0$aSocial work with gay people. 615 0$aSocial work with lesbians. 615 0$aGay people$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aHomosexuality. 615 0$aHomophobia. 676 $a362.8 700 $aTully$b Carol T.$01194658 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779971303321 996 $aLesbians, gays, and the empowerment perspective$93819605 997 $aUNINA
