Reflections utilizes narrative inquiry as its core focus. These narratives explore our communities, our students, our theories, our politics, our biases, our ethics, and our growth. It is a journal that uncovers the many connections that unite all of us as well as the disconnections that divide us. This journal showcases educators, organizational, community, policy, and clinical practitioners and students. Clients of social service systems are especially invited to share their perspectives.From January 1995 to Volume 18#1 in 2012, Reflections was published by California State University Long Beach School of Social Work.
