conceptual and practical positions, effective assessment and intervention
methodologies, and model service delivery programs. The journal is published twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, by the Illinois Association of School Social Workers. The subscription rate is $30.00 per year for individuals; $60.00 for institutions and libraries. There is a $15.00 fee for all foreign postage.
