ABSTRACT

Community is the most basic unit of human activities and interactions. Grassroots governance reflects not only the ability of community managers, but also the development level of harmonious community construction. Social work plays an important role in social services and grassroots governance, mainly in being an important force supplement for grassroots governance and a powerful coordinator of community benefit services and community resource integration. This paper explores the feasibility and effectiveness of social work interventions in grassroots governance based on the practical study of Project D. The study finds that social work interventions in grassroots governance have excellent professional advantages, especially in helping community residents to solve their problems. The study finds that social work intervention in grassroots governance provides social work professional services, nurtures community social organizations, and effectively integrates community resources, but also faces problems and challenges such as immaturity of social work service system, low scope of social work services, low awareness of social work services, and insufficient social work service teams. This paper puts forward suggestions to improve the social work service system, strengthen the cultivation efforts of social organizations, and enhance the localization of social work.
