Abstract
The writer argues that group work is an efficient modality for helping adolescent immigrants. These youngsters experience special needs because they are caught in a unique situation of simultaneous developmental and socio-cultural transitions. The advantages of group work in addrressing these needs and guiding principles for useful group interventions are discussed. A program designed to provide group work services to immigrant adolescents from the former Soviet Union is described to illustrate the effectiveness of the group work modality with this population. The article is based on the experience of the writer as a group supervisor in the program.
