“THE PURPOSE OF GROUP WORK, REGARDLESS OF THE INTERVENTION AND THE PHYSICAL AND COGNITIVE LEVELS OF THE PARTICIPANTS, IS TO ENABLE THE OLDER ADULT TO FUNCTION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL POSSIBLE AND TO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF WHAT THE INDIVIDUAL, FAMILY, OR SOCIETY AT LARGE EXPECTS FROM A CERTAIN PERSON IN A CERTAIN SITUATION. GROUPS PROVIDE A CUSHION, A WAY TO SAFELY EXPLORE ONE’S OWN IDENTITY AND TO FORGE NEW CONNECTIONS WITH OTHERS” Campbell (2017) in Handbook of Social Work with Groups, p. 307 SOWK 487 Jacob Campbell, LICSW - Spring 2022 HERITAGE UNIVERSITY
