Abstract
In this paper we present a curriculum model for rural practice that takes into account rural diversity and the universe of social work practice. By relating these variables to each other we are able to develop principles of curriculum formulation and guides to the inclusion of content. We call for the regionalization of preparation and practice, which will allow services to be more broadly distributed. Professional life has become increasingly segmented because of the knowledge and technological explosion. Synthesis does not come through demands for unity but rather through the development of frames of reference within which the parts are conceptually related to the whole. This paper presents such a synthesis as it relates to rural practice.
