Friendly Visiting among the Poor: A Handbook for Charity Workers, authored by Mary Ellen Richmond, is a seminal work that provides invaluable insights into the practice of charitable work with the less fortunate. First published in the early 20th century, Richmond's book transcends time as it combines empathy, practical guidance, and moral philosophy. Richmond emphasizes the importance of establishing genuine relationships between charity workers and the individuals they assist, advocating for a model of “friendly visiting” that fosters dignity and respect. The handbook delves into effective communication techniques and the ethical responsibilities of charity workers, urging them to understand the socio-economic contexts of those they serve.
