 - The Indian Journal of Social Work   
 - 83(4), Oct, 2022: p.487-500 
<br/><br/> This article briefly traces the historical development of family social work in India by first providing a brief description of the development of the family-centred model of practice and the emergence of the discipline of Family Studies and their key elements. It then discusses how family studies can be developed as a new field of practice for social work in India. The scope of social work practice in this field is extracted from the author’s  experience of developing a Master’s degree level online programme in International Family Studies at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences. – Reproduced
