Unsettled Settlers blends theory and practice to prepare social service workers for front-line work with immigrants and refugees. Each chapter offers strategies for practical intervention required for front-line practitioners. Reflective questions and case studies are peppered throughout the book to engage and immerse the reader in the lived realities of immigrants, refugees, non-status and racialized persons. The multiplicity of their stories reveals how deeply their lives are interwoven in government laws, policies, and organizational practices in Canada.
