Abstract
Family casework agencies have always been concerned with the impact of life's circumstance on the family as a whole and with what can be done to help families achieve stability or to make changes that will help them to achieve maximum effectiveness in handling both everyday and critical life problems. In family-centred casework, the improvement of the social functioning of the family unit is achieved by direct or indirect treatment of individual family members, so planned, so balanced and controlled, that benefits accrue to the total group.
