Breve resumo:
This article summarizes and analyzes the outcomes of the recommendations extracted from the Plan for Research Development, produced in 1991 by a Task Force on Social Work Research created by the National Institute of Mental Health. The Plan responded to the claim of the profession identifying a crisis in social work research, due to the fact that very little time was spent on research to improve social work services and that less than ½ of 1% of members of the National Association of Social Workers – the largest professional social work organization - identified themselves as researchers. Almost 20 years later, it is today considered that the crisis has abated, but has not been eliminated. There is a continuing need for capacity building as well as dissemination research activities.​
