Slacktivism is a term that has been coined to cynically describe the token efforts that people devote to some cause, without long-term or meaningful impact. This book is intended as an inspiration for practicing psychotherapists and counselors, as well as students, to become actively involved in a meaningful effort. Each story represents a gem of wisdom, revealing both questions of faith, as well as of sustained action.
Key Features
- Insights from practitioners across various disciplines and geographic regions.
- Real-life stories that highlight challenges and satisfactions in social justice efforts.

Additional Information
The authors have searched far and wide to identify practitioners representing different disciplines, helping professions, geographic regions, and social action projects, all of whom have been involved in social justice efforts for some time, whether in their own communities or in far-flung regions of the world. The authors have been encouraged to dig deeply in order to talk about the honest realities of their work. After reading their stories, you will be ready to pick a cause that speaks to you and begin your own work.
