Abstract

150 years! Mary Richmond was born150 years ago. A contemporary of Jane Addams and an influential leader within American charitable organizations, she commited herself to social action from an early age and later, to research and the formation of Social Work, and she opened the way towards Case Work. There are few countries today in which the Social Work field does not owe a debt to her influence and thought.
