ABSTRACT
Many social work practitioners see social support groups as a mainstay of direct/clinical practice yet make little or no connection between their work with these groups and social justice practice. This article examines a community-based support group process for women ex-offenders and family members that integrates social justice activities. It focuses on the women ex-offenders as group facilitators, advocates, and community educators. The research also highlights their specific social 160change activities and suggests complementary activities for social justice practitioners working with them.
