Özet: Social services consist of a wide domain that include child care and development and care for the elderly. Thus, social workers are expected to be equipped with knowledge and to possess the capacity to hold this knowledge. They are also expected to possess personality traits that are predisposed to the profession besides their professional knowledge due to the scope of social work. Social services, on the other hand, include proving assistance for individuals, groups and societies to reach the highest possible level of social, spiritual and physical prosperity. In other words, social services are a field that includes the services and programs that aim to remove the poverty and inequalities among individuals, groups and communities that arise due to structural and environmental conditions or that are beyond their control, to prevent the problems that arise from the changing social conditions, to improve the human resources, and to acquire individual, familial and social welfare. There are two types of social service organizations; one includes those established by the state and the other is the organizations founded by the private sector. Since social workers serve several domains such as families, individuals, groups and children, the exigence of the private sector presence in the field is quite clear.
