Golan on the Nature of Transitions and the Change Process
This study pack contains the Golan chapter on the nature of transitions and the change process, a core reading in social-work and person-in-environment courses. The text examines how individuals move through life transitions, the strengths and vulnerabilities that shape resilience, and the assessment of risk and adaptive capacity. Students use the chapter to compare character responses in narrative case material and to apply theoretical concepts of transition and change to clinical or community practice situations.
