MISSION STATEMENT
Advocates’ Forum is an academic
journal that explores implications of
clinical social work practice, social
issues, administration, and public
policies linked to the social work
profession. The Editorial Board of
Advocates’ Forum seeks to provide a
medium through which SSA students
can contribute to public thinking
about social welfare and policy
in theory and practice. Above all,
Advocates’ Forum serves to encourage
and facilitate an open, scholarly
exchange of ideas among individuals
working toward the shared goal of
a more just and humane society.
EDITORIAL POLICY

the students of the School of Social
Service Administration (SSA) at The
University of Chicago. Submissions
