Abstract
ABSTRACT The article investigates the scope, motivations, considerations for, and implications of minority group social workers’ professional success. Data was collected with primary and secondary documents and in-depth semi-structured interviews with 21 Arab welfare bureaus managers in Israel. The message of “success” has almost disappeared from the relevant formal institutions. One nonprofit organization provides a role model of “learning from successes” for Arab social workers, focusing on multi-disciplinary projects. All the Arab bureaus consciously encourage the success of intervention projects acting out of four main motivations: cost-benefit considerations, publicity, covert challenge to the establishment and coping with internal and external challenges.
