The Clinical Social Work Journal (CSWJ) is pleased to announce a call for papers for a special issue entitled “Global Insights into Clinical Social Work with Sexual and Gender Diverse/Expansive People.” We seek manuscripts providing clinical social workers with a deeper understanding of practice with LGBTQ+ people across the globe. We seek papers from various cultures/countries that explore how gender-sensitive clinical interventions are offered in various global locations.
Such papers could focus on challenges clinical social workers experience in providing such services in their communities given the context of those communities, as well as affirming practices with this population. We also seek papers that explore the unique clinical issues that clinical social workers see in those communities given the local attitudes and legal rights in those contexts.
