社会政策发展的方法，就像社会工作在直接人际层面的干预方法一样，通常是以问题为中心，以病理学为导向的。优势的观点，假定的优势和资源的人和他们的环境，而不是他们的问题和病理应该是在社会工作的帮助过程中的中心焦点，可以用来重新制定问题为中心，病理为中心的方法，以社会政策的发展。本文提出的论点，整合的优势的角度来看，社会政策制定过程中，可以提供政策从业人员的新工具，概念化的社会需求或问题，一个移动包容性的方法来制定政策，并扩大了一系列的授权政策选择。还讨论了启动这种集成的方法。
Methods of social policy development, like methods of social work intervention at the direct interpersonal level, have typically been problem focused and pathology oriented. The strengths perspective, which posits that the strengths and resources of people and their environment rather than their problems and pathologies should be the central focus of the helping process in social work, can be used to reformulate problem-focused, pathology-centered approaches to social policy development. This article makes the argument that integration of the strengths perspective into the social policy-making process can provide policy practitioners with new tools for conceptualizing social needs or problems, a move inclusive approach to policy formulation, and an expanded array of empowering policy options. Methods for initiating this integration are also discussed.
