Historical Development in India Group Work was introduced in India in 1936 with the establishment of the first School of Social Work, the Sir Dorabji Tata Graduate School of Social Work in Mumbai. The second school of Social Work set-up in Delhi included the Social Group Work Method in the curriculum. The third school came up in Baroda with a strong trend of group work practice.
The Association of Schools of Social Work in association with Technical Cooperation Mission (U.S.A) laid down minimum standards for group work. Almost all schools offered courses on case work, group work and community organization on an American Model in the Indian context.
