Suchthilfe und Suchtprävention sind zentrale Tätigkeitsfelder für Fachkräfte der Sozialen Arbeit. Das Wissen um Suchtgefährdung und der fachliche Umgang mit missbrauchenden und abhängigen Menschen sind angesichts der Risiko-Klientel in vielen Bereichen der Sozialen Arbeit (z.B. der Wohnungslosenhilfe, Jugendhilfe) wesentlicher Bestandteil des Berufsprofils. Das Buch ist angelegt als systematisches Grundlagenwerk zur Sozialen Arbeit in der Suchthilfe und Suchtprävention und richtet sich insbesondere an Studierende sowie an Fachkräfte der Sozialen Arbeit. Es entfaltet die Theorie und die relevanten Wissensbestände in enger Ausrichtung auf ihre Bedeutung für die Bewältigung beruflicher Anforderungen und stellt die dafür notwendigen Handlungskonzepte anschaulich vor.
