This purpose of this library guide is to support the Human Services program at Bronx Community College (within the Social Sciences Department). Students, faculty and staff are invited to utilize and explore the library's resources for information related to human services. These resources can be used to help complete assignments, reports, projects and fulfill personal interests in this field of study.
"The field of Human Services is broadly defined, uniquely approaching the objective of meeting human needs through an interdisciplinary knowledge base, focusing on prevention as well as remediation of problems, and maintaining a commitment to improving the overall quality of life of service populations. The Human Services profession is one which promotes improved service delivery systems by addressing not only the quality of direct services, but also by seeking to improve accessibility, accountability, and coordination among professionals and agencies in service delivery."
