Abstract

This is the second of two inter-linked special issues on social work teams. The first focused on how teams contribute to assessment and sense-making in social work. This special issue focuses on the role of teams in social worker wellbeing and retention. his special issue extends our knowledge of the relationship between teams, social worker wellbeing and retention. Each of the seven articles provides a window onto the emotional life of social work teams, including how team support is enacted across an increasingly complex landscape of in-person and online spaces. The contributions include ethnographies of teamwork and peer support, development of measures for assessing team functioning in social work, interventions to support teams, and reflections on the legacy of COVID-19 for teamwork and support.
